@Eiregoat Soon, the top part will be socially acceptable.
Well, at least ThinkPenguin seems to actually stick to their principles. They also let you choose whatever Linux distro you want pre-installed, unlike System76's two choices between Pop_OS and Ubuntu. They also accept crypto payments.
@wrongthink @system76 I actually decided to do an nslookup of System76's mail servers and I can safely say that at least they are not using Gmail, though I don't know what is this messagingengine.com.
@ryo I don't know. What I want to know is why are they hosting it on AWS when they fucking sell servers.
I don't know how much it cost to actually maintain a server for a storefront like this, but honestly it doesn't seem surprising because they are slow to restock. I actually wanted to buy a laptop from them a couple years back because I think it would be better to use a computer that was actually built for Linux, but ALL of their laptops were out of stock, but that might have been due to a chip shortage from the scamdemic.
Oh you thought that was bad? I also found out that their site is hosted on AWS. They might as well just sell their computers on Amazon.
