#maclinuxbuild

The most exciting part of the #maclinuxbuild aside from from the #linux #os install has to be #gpu day! Opted for an #amd rx 6600 xt. These got a lot of flack at release because price to performance was not there. They were also released during a time of high gpu prices but they’ve come down quite a bit. It’s also the best option that my research turned up which does not require the #pixlas #mod. Good enough for #gaming, light #editing and a #Plex #server. #foss #floss #opensource #slowtech

A less exciting #maclinuxbuild update but nonetheless important. This CR2032 battery is for the NVRAM in the #macpro These batteries generally have a lifespan of 5-10 years and since this #mac is from 2010, was bought on craigslist, and its history is unknown to me, spending $5 on a battery is an easy “yes” for me. It’s amazing how repairable and upgradable this thing is. Especially w/ the #partspairing limitation in new #Apple #hardware #foss #floss #opensource #slowtech #diy #rightorepair
