I love the ThinkPads. I spilt juice in mine and it went kaput. I'll be replacing it with an upgrade!

Until then, I can't DJ.

Man, I regret selling my collection, but it was necessary at the time. I had a copy of Gunstar Heroes.

This was me, when Yuzo Koshiro complimented my covers of Streets of Rage songs in KORG Gadget.

I had OG Suffering on Xbox, then bought Ties That Bind for PC.

There's probably more I could add, but this is what springs to mind ATM.

And while Linux requires a learning curve to use, in general, it perfectly explains how neurodivergent people try to navigate their environment and the world around them. Whether they learn by themselves or with help from a community (Linux forums).

While Windows can be ran on older hardware and be customised to suit one's needs, it requires modifications and bypassing, whereas Linux just does it out of the box.

Each distro can do most things a Windows env can do, with some caveats (depending on the software), but can also do things Windows can't do, such as running officially on older hardware, while being up-to-date (some subtle changes can be scary for them) and expansive customisability to suit needs.

Neurodivergent people, however, run on Linux (or any open-source UNIX based desktop environment). There's no single ecosystem (not caring about current trends), each distro can run most Windows products, and they all have their own flavours with a different desktop UI.
