- <p>
- Day 11:
- </p>
- <p>
- After getting lost several times, my sister and I made it to the recycling center.
- They only had one Linux laptop there, a machine running Zorin $a[OS].
- I was excited to see that was only \$99, but when I checked it with the bootable $a[USB] drive, I found that the wireless card does not work without proprietary firmware not present in Debian.
- I asked the people there about getting a machine custom built, but they said that any machine they built would still require the proprietary firmware.
- I highly doubt this, chance alone would dictate that some laptop wireless cards they got in would work just fine without proprietary firmware.
- However, it is clear that they will not attempt to build me a machine does not require this firmware.
- They recommended looking for machines online, which is the only other thing I can think to do.
- I refuse to buy one of their Windows machines, as my money would be put toward paying Microsoft to license me software that I would never use and would be erasing immediately.
- The only places to look online that I know of only offer brand new computers though, which are much more expensive.
- </p>
- <p>
- It was a long trip, my body hurts now, and I didn't even get what I went there for.
- However, the trip was well worth it, both for the fun outing and to prove that I don't need to burn fossil fuels to run my errands.

- I couldn't update my <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> today, as I was cut off from my Web/ssh server.
