@gregdosh I actually emailed the Roseville branch of the ramsey county library today inquiring about what it looks like for using space. I’m in the Roseville area so funny you mention it. I also like the idea of a recurring event. I came up on the help desk so feel like I can troubleshoot and resolve many things though windows kinda just sucks now and I’m less experienced with Linux. RAM/SSD upgrades is a good idea.

@pmbrandvold For windows there might be some really interesting things around debloating oem installs or removing AI features with tools like WinUtil. https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil I'd be more than interested in doing classes or teaching on occasion depending on community interest as well. I've been hesitant to go at it alone myself before because I think this stuff does better with community and driving towards their needs rather than my own personal interests on what to teach or help with. I used to teach software developers at Target and I have been helping my mom with her tech for years and years. The mix of personas and needs and aptitude is a lot of fun for me. A (recurring) community give back day is what I've been trying to figure out how to start for a while. Especially in my local area. The Harriet Alexander Nature Center does building rentals and I was considering how fun it would be to encourage folks to come drop off computer stuff and go for a walk or something and then come back. https://cityofroseville.com/637/Building-Rentals#tab150b1097-e828-4c2e-b4b0-8af361033695_1
