gollark: The most cost-effective way to get a decently powerful computer is to build it yourself, which is actually not that hard as long as you can use a screwdriver and read manuals.
gollark: You can buy decent old office computers.
gollark: Ah, good.
gollark: I think you're not actually. I saw it somewhere on here. Maybe the channel topic of <#414921583006842910>.
gollark: At least on the forums.
