When will people wake up, stop buying expensive Raspberry Pi shit that can't even run MS Teams and read about glorious HP/Dell/Fujitsu X86 terminals?
Poor children can't afford computers

Large companies that buy those in bulk and write them off on their taxes when they get rid of them every year is not a sustainable way to subsidize computing for poor children.
If they did suddenly become popular enough that enough poor children were receiving them, their used price would skyrocket just like cheap optiplexes did not even a year ago.

I want her to give me a footjob. I bet it'll feel good.

Kids need something with a GUI for most of what they do. A terminal might be useful for learning IT stuff, but most of them ought to have at least a chrome book or entry level laptop/tablet.

That is a thin client, not a terminal.

*optiplexes and thinkpads.
This goes into another point, things only stay cheap when they're undesirable but not nonsalable, you people need to stop telling normies about your hidden gem obscure cheap computer brands, all it takes is one normie youtuber making a video about it for it to explode in popularity and ruin it for everyone else.
It's the modern equivalent of a terminal, a thin client that only has enough power to support a web browser to access some corporate intranet thing.

Is it better to destroy this hardware or to pass it from corporations to kids?
I run Xubuntu Desktop and Windows 10 on these 4-core AMD APUs with passive cooling ;^.

4-core CPU, 1GB+ shared GPU with 8/16/32GB RAM is good enough to run Windows now.

I used to dual boot Win 10 and Kubuntu but I'm thinking about just switching to Xubuntu

I don't dislike the idea of thin clients, but they're basically weak laptop internals in a desktop box.
It's a worst of all worlds situation for the home computer user who has so many options in used computers.
You're adding the price of a monitor, keyboard and mouse too, right?
You might as well get a used thinkpad if you're so poor a $200 purchase is worthy of scrutiny.
