He mentions (in the comments of the video) the catch-22 of needing the thatch to last long enough to make enough bricks to make a brick and tile workshop that doesn't need thatch.

Guess you haven't met my neighbors.

I'm still running 16GB. I built my PC in 2015 and it's been my gaming/work/dev machine ever since. Have only upgraded GPU and storage.

It is definitely showing its age, but I don't need to worry about the Windows requirements. My CPU isn't supported for Windows 11 so I'm sticking with what I've got until Windows 10 hits EoL. Then I'll probably buy a 64GB AMD system and switch to Mint at that point.

Bingo! Rural in particular is slow and unreliable. Something like this isn't a practical option even if I was OK with it. I'm already planning to switch to Linux when I get a new PC or when Windows 10 hits EoL. This would make the switch a necessity.

At least with my subscriptions I've been noticing an increase in sponsored segments. And you know what? I don't mind. It's much less jarring when the "host" is also doing the ad and pretty much just works it into the video. People have to make money, and this old-school approach works for me. Reminds me of ads in old TV/radio shows. And it doesn't suddenly change the scene and quadruple the volume along with seizure-inducing backgrounds.
