    Sounds awful. Since I switched to Mint my computer has only crashed when I got out of hand with Blender, I can’t see myself doing it on purpose.

      People do it as a stress test of their system. A goodly OS should be able to stop it before it crashes the system, otherwise it won’t cause much damage (depends on what else you’re doing when it crashes)

      It was a nice experience, part of the learning process, discover your limits and go beyond them, everything at your own pace.

      Make sure you always have multiple external backups, check them for errors as well.

      Currently I am reading up on off grid communication mechcore and reticulum

        All my computer is for is drawing pictures, making noise and occasionally doing internet stuff that’s too obnoxious to do from my phone. I don’t game or code or torrent. Really mostly just Blender and PrusaSlicer.
