I don't want to not be able to have consumer computer parts, although part of me is ready to be done with computers again all together.

In any case, I was just at a Tool collective today to get some tools for a project, and it seems like every time I turn around the solution, or at least mitigation, to this modern world is CO-OP's. If I can't have consumer computers and have to use shared resources, I would definitely prefer to do it as a non profit collective with a management board beholden to the members, not a corporate entity.

Ironically, the "own nothing and be happy" line comes from an essay envisioning a future of co-ops.
