Yeah, I get that. This one store has remained in its early-2000s renovation layout while all the other nearby locations of its size went the opposite direction and became Neighborhood Markets and only sell food. That's what has me baffled by it.

The Walmart in my town is weird as fuck because it barely has any food in it. Like MAYBE 10% of their floorspace is foodstuffs. And it used to be okay because there was an employee-owned grocery store in town. Well, that grocery store chain apparently got bought out recently, and not only are they raising their prices faster than Walmart, they also can't keep the shelves stocked because the people doing the ordering don't work in the stores. I'm actually thinking I might have to start driving an hour to the nearest WinCo if prices keep skyrocketing like this.

I plan on running this bad boy until it bites the dust. And then I'll get an AMD card so I have an easier time with the drivers. Took me days to get my games running on Debian.

It shouldn't be too hard, and considering private key authentication, you could even use a single sign-in for multiple platforms/accounts, and use the public key as an identifier to link them across platforms. I know there's already a couple proof-of-concept Gemini forums/BBSs out there already. Maybe they just need a popularity boost?
