my parents are too tech savvy :/
But in school i removed a gum paper from the disk drive with a screw taped to the end of a brush if that counts

you system has not seen a restart in years

Linkin Bark

I went overkill because i had money, no hardware i could dedicate and wanted flexibility for my volatile interests. So overkill (except storage until i upgrade) that i plan sharing it with my family (when i set it up properly) I could have made a less overkill choice but that way i probably wont need to change my setup for some game

Absolutly me

But i think the starting OS depends on the person.

I never would give Arch to my grandmother or something but most of my siblings would be better off with arch than mint. But even then there could be poeple that would be happier with another distro that is not a rolling release
