As for security, are there really that significant of _hardware_ security advancements happening?

Because I tend to hear far more about all the new hardware ways of _tracking_ your computer.

Apparently Microsoft claims that once a computer turns four years old, it'll cost companies $4,000 per computer they _don't_ upgrade, due to hardware failures and hardware related data breaches.

I find this _completely_ unbelievable. For one thing, several years ago I bought an entire stack of retired Core 2 Duo Dell Optiplex 960's from a college, where several have been put into near continuous use, and not one has suffered a single hardware failure since. And these are now 14 years old iirc.

@codythedragonrude Microsoft is also the company that doesn't support computers more than about four years old for Windows 11...

Using Meamo Leste on my pinephone reminds me just how much Nokia knocked it out of the park with the N900

@urusan Luckily my printer is _always_ out of color ink!
