Not happening. I had a similar situation this year, and the best I could do was Bodhi Linux. Config took all night, because it's the most user-unfriendly thing in the world. That being said, it still ran Chromium just fine, and the desktop can (after a monumental amount of work) be made to look a bit like 2000s macOS.
>i hate seeing saveabe machines even very buget ones go to waste.
Me too. I fix them and give them to my younger brother to play with. You will not, however, be able to realistically sell them. Moore's law puts hard limits on the working life of everything with a processor.
>is it possible to save the old girl?
Yes, but not as a general purpose computer. It should be repurposed for a more specialised task so you can minimise bloat. It could, for example, be used as a retro games console, or run a MARS engine for Core War competitions. Or you could do some IoT experiments and use your old laptop to get data from sensors around your house.
You could even use the very hardware constraints as an experiment in itself, by seeing how fast you can get it to run. You might even install Linux from scratch and try to design your own distro and upload it to GitHub/Gitlab. That kind of thing looks great on a resume, because it proves deep understanding of dependencies.
>what is the lowest cpu useage linix that is user frinedly with full gui support?
What exactly do you count as "full gui"? If you mean a full desktop environment that a normalfag can use after you configure it for them, then your options are very limited (Slackware, TinyCore, Bodhi, etc). If you're willing to use a more minimal interface, however, you have the option to experiment with more powerful distros and debloat them with simpler window manager.
As a wildcard, you might also experiment with installing Emacs without a GUI. Then you can play with all the different packages and amaze yourself with what is possible from a text-only interface.

The powers that be have a new system that has been in the development for decades now, ready to be rolled out in the coming years. It will operate in parallel starting sometime this year and by the next decade it will be fully operational as the Agenda 2030 goals are slowly being implemented.
There will be no collapse, no violence, no uprising, no world war, no revolution, no killing of jews or politicians or other such fantasies. Instead there will be law & order, compliance and total surveillance until the very end. AI will be at the center of it all.

The Great Reset is inevitable.

Karl Marx is:
From each according to his ability
To Each according to his need
+ the command for a centralized worker's state thats suppose to nationalize all industries and eventually collapse into a workers utopia. Lore of primitive communism -> slaverly -> feudalism -> capitalism -> state centralized sociallism -> communism being a linear path in history. Daily life is seen as an epic battle of good workers vs evil capitalist. Which gets "workers" and "capitalist" get searched and replaced with "gay" vs "straight" "black vs "white" "women" vs "patriarchy" "trans" vs "gender conforming" - the timeless epic battle gets readapted.


FOSS is:
Those with abilites make software for hobbies, personal gain, and passion.
Those with needs get whats avalible but are not entitled to the able'ds labor
Needs are meet because the abled person's passion project coincidentatly helped others.
here is no state agency commanding those with needs receive software it just happens through spontaneous order.
+ advocacy for FOSS focuses heavily on digital decentralized and not being interdependent on big tech, no lore of an epic battle, utopia, or model that captures all of human history but there is an us vs them against big tech to be fair.
Gay straight, trans, black, white just get along and develop cool software.

the logic goes something like

>foss = give away stuff for free, also i don't like it

you're thinking about it way more deeply than people who actually make that comparison

Yeah it's an MOC
I can find the instructions but the trouble is this MOC uses a lot of replacement parts instead of the originals

So it's a pain in the ass comparing.
I don't want to be a dick and just open a dispute on the POSSIBILITY of missing pieces but at the same time I really don't want to start this build only to then find things missing and have no course of correction

Now that RAM prices have 5x'd, it'll be funny to see AMD and NVidia putting 4 and 6gb VRAM in their cards, with Intel "saving" us with 8GB cards.

Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you.

Just because Rust deliberately makes working with statics painful doesn't mean they're actually bad. Using the heap doesn't automatically make you smart.
If you try to run this with a huge input, it's better for it to crash with a segmentation fault than to exhaust all your RAM.

Its entirely different though, China uses globohomo for its own advantage, while the West is being used by globohomo
For example China doesnt embrace global capitalism inside China but outside it does
Like you cant be a jew and go into China and buy their lands and rent them back to the Chinese
But you can do it in the West to White people, and in fact China does this too it buys a lot of properties worldwide but dont allow others to come to China and buy theirs

You get it? China use globohomo to their advantage but dont follow it themselves dont let themselves be fucked by it
This is because China doesnt have any foreign tribes in it that would push their own interests against the natives, so China can make pro Chinese decisions

Of course you jeets dont like Westernerns looking into China and seeing that them keeping their ethnostate everything functions better because you definitely dont want to go to India back to your own ethnostate you rather live in someone elses land
