Yeah, I've just accepted the PC I have today is probably the final PC I will own. Sure, something might break and I'll replace that one part. But it would be like-for-like and probably at great cost. I really hope things go back to normal in a few years. But with everything going on, I doubt it. And with the push for you will own nothing and be happy, we might not be able to buy high-end computers for reasonable prices ever again.

I am looking forward to living without a computer. I saw a comedy soap opera from the 80s and people live in empty huts whereas modern houses look like dumpsters
