@ActionRetro this reminds me of the scalable Workstation Design I wanted to get off the ground...

Kinda like the #Onyx but woth modern bus systems...

Some people may call this "Cyber-Masochism" in terms of tech but his videos crucially showcase the achilles heels of #unix-alike systems:

- archiving the toolchain and dependencies
- documentation, or lack thereof
- how the #GlibC is an unfixable POS that should not exist since minor updates brick an entire userland and this is absolutely unacceptable for anyone who wants a stable #Linux system!
- how online-dependent distros are.
