      Recently got OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installed on an old 32-bit Eee PC.

      The thing was an absolute ultra-budget potato 14 years ago when it was released, and yet, it still works just fine if all you need is editing some documents in LibreOffice. And, it lasts 6 hours on a single charge!

        Conceptually I really like the old netbooks.

        I’ve gotten into self hosting and like the idea of using a netbook as a thin client.
