>Talos II PC
>Gentoo OS / Guix System / Talos Linux
>open source Modos Paper Dev Kit e-ink Display for the computer monitor
>Faraday protection for HDs because regular hard drives are analog hardware and thus emit radiation that hackers can use to listen to you inside your room even if you cut the speakers
>FDE (Full Disc Encryption) algorithm on hard drive w/ KeePassXC/masterpassword.app/BitWarden on USB flash drive
>Banana Pi BPI-RV2 and Wio Lite RISC-V board integrates a RISC-V microcontroller for modem/router functionality
FPGA/Soft-MAC Wi-Fi (Open80211) modules for fully open 802.11 networking experiments; setup includes an FPGA development board (e.g., Lattice iCE40 or TinyFPGA), open-source PHY/MAC implementation, and software stack such as Open80211, connected via USB or GPIO to Talos II and optionally bridged to RISC-V boards
>SiFive FE310 as an open-hardware USB-to-UART/SPI/I2C bridge replacement, plus a Bus Pirate (open-hardware) when you want a flexible serial/GPIO bridge
>Connect your ethernet cables to your proprietary default ISP hardware and you can now use IP over DHCP to establish a private network connection, using a SOCKS5 proxy you scripted in Python using ChaCha20, Poly1305, X25519 and Kyber to protect your connection from DNS leaks to your ISP

But even then e-ink paper displays are low refresh rate and poor quality, so aren't good for multimedia, your connection is going to be slow as fuck due to limited support for open wifi cards, your processing power is shit and compiling Gentoo on POWER9 is going to be time consuming, programming a FPGA and making Wifi modules is going to be time consuming and requires programming know-how, and since ISP routers are proprietary, you won't be able to access certain features.

nigger it's 15.000$

It's the only full PC that is completely open source (hard drive included), so really Raptor Computing System hardware is your only option.

having a house with land and no rent is also my only option if i want to have a sane life without suicidal thoughts i guess. unfortunately you have to make compromises like everyone else. risc-v SoCs are free and stuff like openbsd runs on the sifive, also sun sparc is still around and while still pricey it's a sane and secure architecture. but most of all, there's no point in paying 15k dollars when you're going to install fucking linux on it with insane packages like modern web browsers and steam or whatever. architectures are only really useful to build software with forced limitations and security measures to spot differences and bugs that you wouldn't spot on the mess that is x86. unless you literally only write text files and program in C and use the internet by downloading raw html and parsing it manually and don't install anything else.
