It’ll just be used for browsing office work so sounds like it’ll be fine.
It’s thinkpad T420. Is it powerful enough for Cinnamon?
What’s the easiest and most secure linux distro for a non-techie? This is for a spare thinkpad I want to try linux on.

politics @lemmy.world•Ocasio-Cortez Says ‘We Should Not Be Entertaining a Bailout’ of AI Industry as Bubble Fears Grow
304·2 months agoAOC is right, if AI bubble burst, companies shouldn’t be bailed out. I want to remind people that not ALL bubble bursts have resulted in bail outs. When the dot-com burst, there were no bailouts. There was a short recession of 8 months, and the rest of the world continued on in its aftermath. When the commodities bubble burst, in the 2000s there was no bail out. When the housing bubble burst, there was bailout because banks had lent too much money into the housing bubble. If banks fail, there would be bank runs, and that contagion would have spread everywhere and the entire financial system would have collapsed. Currently, there are no bank debts nor bonds being issued to spend billions on AI data centers. The danger will be when leverage is used to fund these trillion-dollar outlays. Currently there is very little debt tied to AI bubble. Most of the AI spending is coming from the humongous tech companies with loads of cash on hand and with fat profit margins who are plowing it all into AI data centers. When it does go bust, their valuations will deflate but the business will still remain. Watch for use of leverage or debt in AI. Once it enters the equation, that’s where the systemic risk will begin to tick up.

politics @lemmy.world•House Republicans want to strip Zohran Mamdani of citizenship, possibly deport NYC mayoral frontrunner over form omissions
191·3 months agoUS immigration law declares inadmissible those who have “been a member of or affiliated with the Communist or any other totalitarian party.” The current form asks would-be citizens to disclose if they have ever been associated “in any way” with “any Communist or totalitarian party anywhere in the world.”
They want to deport former communists or affiliates of communist parties? Let’s start at the White House!

Guess which way the Supreme White Court will rule?
