1. If you buy a used office desktop, it can be worth it to just put in a GPU. You have to know what you’re looking at though. Some prebuilds include stuff like custom motherboards or PSUs that are very hard to upgrade or make it impossible to install a GPU. Otherwise DIY is cheapest.

2. Debian is very stable, good for professional use.

3. She already uses some software and she probably would like something similar. Maybe look for alternatives or ways to run her choice of software on Linux?

• GIMP isn’t the most user friendly software and I don’t think it’s the best choice for graphic design.
• Inkscape is good for vector graphics, but it’s still lackluster compared to Adobe Illustrator.
• Krita is awesome for illustrations and digital art, but doesn’t have too many graphic design features that I found.

Overall if she’s going to use it in professional capacity, switching to Linux could be a risk.

Eating vegetarian food can be much cheaper than going for meat, so it makes sense.

Because it’s Zuckerberg free and has some actually good features like custom stickers.

You are literally describing cryptocurrencies in the last paragraph.

Why would it need to be wireless? You can just place it connected to the wall. That’s literally a mining rig. You let companies and people use your processing power (or storage in some cases) for a fee (the mined coin).

There was never any support for consoles to begin with tho, the only thing going for consoles have been slightly better aimbot settings for controller.

Risk of rain 2, shit’s addictive when you start getting decent at it

Fail2Ban is great and all, but Cloudflare provides such an amazing layer of protection with so little effort that it’s probably the best choice for most people.

You press a few buttons and have a CDN, bot attack protection, DDOS protection, captcha for weird connections, email forwarding, static website hosting… It’s suspicious just how much stuff you get for free tbh.
