Shut the fuck up, Alexander! You're out of your element.

We love package managers though!
Most Linux users like the benefits of having a single command/interface to search for, install, and update software. The problem is when the source(s) for those programs is locked down.
Important to note though that air resistance is nonlinear
it uses less energy to get from A to B slowly than quickly.
Does budget include storage? Tight budget without storage, even tighter with...
If power usage not a concern then used x86/x64 gear is probably the way to go. Surplus gear (corporate, university...) possibly an option for you. That's a very tight budget though, so I don't think it really gives you the luxury of choosing specs unfortunately. That said: I might go fot the best bones/least RAM/storage if you think you might upgrade it down the road. 4GB RAM with an upgrade path to 32 is preferable to 8GB non-upgradable IMHO. Likewise, 500GB spinny disk with extra bays and an NVME slot is nicer than 500GB SSD with no upgrade path. Again... really tight budget so this may all be out of the question.
I'm a fan of low power gear, so I'd recommend something like a Raspberry Pi 5 8GB, or another SBC (I just grabbed an Orange Pi 5 Plus and I like it so far
NVME, 16GB RAM, dual NIC). However these will be out of your budget, especially once you add case, power supply, and storage.
Good luck!
Debian got me through grad school.
Not the latest and greatest (if you run stable), but if you need the latest e.g. Julia, it's not too bad to compile it.
RHEL would like a word ;)
"popularity contest" is an opt-in on Debian. It's not malicious, and it's not for financial gain, but it is in a loose sense spying.
Toss up between VOY and DS9 for me (VOY catchier but a little more saccharin). TNG just a bit too...exuberant.
VOY fun to really ham it up on the piano though.
Regarding rent, depending on you situation, you can just ask to have it lowered.
We previously lived in a duplex. When the other tenant moved out, we chatted and they said that they were offered $XYZ rent reduction to stay (they moved out anyway
price wasn't really a factor). So we just asked the property manager for a reduction ("given the current real estate climate blah blah blah...") and got a rent reduction. No guarantees but usually doesn't hurt to ask (unless you have a vindictive landlord...).
Parent said "one of," not "the very first." Wikipedia has US with 4 out of the first 10 metro stations https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metro_systems
Interesting to note is that some (all?) of those early metro systems are arguably more successful than the subsequent US systems.
That's awesome! I do love me some potatoes
making hashbrowns with a cheese grater (or Cuisinart-type device) was eye opening for me, since I love hashbrowns but buying frozen hashbrowns feels pretty wasteful (cost, packaging, wasting precious space in my freezer...).
If you have an air fryer (or the instant pot air fryer attachment), hashbrowns can be made really easily in them too.
...let me get this straight, you're divorcing Minnie because she's very silly?
