I am fucking 🤏 this close to starting a business where I just slam LMDE on poor people’s laptops and put on LXQT and call it a day.
The only problem is that if someone can’t afford a new laptop, they can hardly afford to pay me.
Also, I’m only good enough to just shove linux on a shitty computer, not be a 24/7 linux customiser. Also, getting paid to install linux on people’s computers seems like it violates… something.

You’d be getting paid for the service, not for the software, so it’s fine
