I want to run a local instance of Ollama on its own machine just to try things out. What's the cheapest hardware I can get started with?

Can anyone recommend a hardware setup or a beginners guide?

I'm a software guy and I get bored shopping for hardware. I've done a lot with Raspberry Pi, but obviously it's not up to this task.

[Photos of some of my favorite sculptures I've seen]

Hi sculpture enthusiasts! I'm trying to plan a trip and I want to choose a travel destination where I can experience some powerful or inspirational sculpture. I prefer within the US for budget reasons, but all suggestions are welcome.

I had the good fortune to travel to Italy a few years ago (Rome, Florence, and Bologna) and I was really moved and excited seeing so much great art.

Some of my other favorite places I've seen sculpture are Frederick Meyer gardens, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the streets and parks of Chicago.

I want to see things that bear the same sense of awe that I get from the pictured pieces. I'm not necessarily picky, but looking through my photos, I realize I have an affinity for large outdoor sculpture. I also notice a lot of stone, bronze, and wood, but I have no shame in including LEGO as a medium.

We have MS Copilot at work and it consistently gives me code to paste into Power Apps that does not work. Then when I try to fix it, it gaslights me with solutions that don't change anything. Sometimes a screenshot will make it change its mind but then I just get new bad code.
