Eagle eggs are now collectible in the backpack. No function yet, but intending to use them as bait in the future.

Be sure to hard refresh, just in case, before stealing your next eagle egg! Also, don't steal eagle eggs IRL pls.

Does anyone know how to make a laptop smell less like hay? Every time I run this old X220, it smells like a petting zoo :D

pop the back cover off of that jawn and blast the heatsinks/fans with compressed air, make sure to hold the fans in place when you blow them out or you can overspin them and kill the bearings. Thinkpads are ez work to take apart, all of the screws you need to remove will be Philips and have arrows pointing towards them

Your blog post about cheap computing is too real. I've gotten the "cheap laptops on ebay" bug lately too :p

The thing I am trying to maximize right now is a 2011-era 11 inch Acer Aspire with a first gen low-power i3, with upgraded RAM and an SSD. It's still dog slow when it comes to installing stuff, but it handles indieweb stuff just fine! I'm writing this reply on it :p

The next thing I'd like to get my hands on is a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 11e. Basically the same idea as this Acer, but with better hardware. Finding something ~11 inches with a real hard drive instead of an old eMMC is tough.

ooo I like the sound of that Thinkpad Yoga. But even that little slow Acer Aspire, for some reason, it's just really fun to browse the indie web on those lower power machines. I managed to get Linux running on a C720 Chromebook with 2 gigs of ram and it can basically handle 2 or 3 tabs on Firefox and that's about it XD Silly fun to browse with though

have follow :D
