I like it. The texture of those eyes!

General rule is check reviews and stick with what people consider quality branding. Never go generic.

If it has a decent warranty, and reviews say they're good, that's a reasonable way to decide

+1 on the not cheaping out on the power supply. It's the one part that could easily destroy every other part of the computer if it fails.

You know, that could be a factor on some level. I wonder if this trend is reflected in countries with universal healthcare

Honestly I can't think of any way you could verify age accurately without something identifying being provided.

You could try age based trivia, but anyone could Google an answer.

This could be handy for low powered devices with tools that you only use on occasion, particularly automated stuff

I'm looking forward to seeing how sodium ion battery tech goes commercially. It sounds promising

Healthcare should be one of those things that should be available regardless of how much money you have. America just uses it as a cash cow.

You'd save so much more money if you paid a bit of extra tax and had public health care. Even if only for basic stuff.

You can still have your insurance to help cover non essential stuff if you want. The current system is only helping the insurance companies, not the people.

Agreed. It really has to be opt in only. Advertise it or something but it has to be the users choice

Dogs are great, but even if they were autistic would anyone even notice?

Tbh I am betting that it's gonna come out that they've known about the health risks all along, but they tried to ignore/cover it up for profit reasons.

Unraid is easy to start with when you have no idea what you're doing. Other stuff often requires more up front work to setup.

The paid licence is just the cost of the conveniences.
