I’ll agree with this. GIMP is the most user-unfriendly piece of photo editing software i’ve used to date. I can pick up video games like Shadow Empire and spend dozens of hours figuring out how it works but GIMP is a wall to me.

Does the hardware being all so arranged as it is in this manner to create a supercomputer make any difference to that evaluation?
The storage drives for all of this have been stripped. You can’t just run commands on the hardware… you have to figure out how to cluster things with software, buy drives for it all, have it all installed in a datacenter somewhere which is going to cost way more than the purchase price.
The labor costs for the technical people required to do this are way more than half a million a year.
The piecemeal nature of selling thousands of parts means the wages for a group necessary to coordinate it all would probably make the whole thing not feasible.
Ebay prices are higher than market prices imo. 15% ebay cut + 3% paypal fees + sales tax + shipping is brutal.
I don’t know why anyone would buy this. Maybe it’s one of those precious metal reclamation groups.
Generally hardware that old is cheaper to replace with newer more efficient hardware than to even consider running due to electricity costs.
Sounds like e911 or pots lines.
