Ha, I just came here to post this! It’s seriously cool, and the Navajo’s history in the semiconductor industry is something I never knew about.
I would love a rug like that.

Counterpoint: a used PS5 will probably run $450, and including the cost of a TV isn’t fair because basically everybody already has one (you’d have to factor in the cost of a monitor too if you want a fair comparison).
Building a new PC is likely to be less cost effective if you only plan to use it for games, and if you’re building your first PC and can’t carry over components like storage and the chassis. The initial investment will pay off in the future, but not everyone has $800 to throw into a PC all at once.
Finally, saying that a mainline console like the PS5 will be “trash” in 5 years is objectively wrong. Modern consoles are often supported for 7-8+ years, and even after that point, they will continue to play all the games they did before.
I agree that a PC is generally a better investment than a console like the PS5. But you shouldn’t make that argument by being disingenuous or exaggerating the downsides of what you’re arguing against.
I would look for a dongle that specifically markets itself as being Raspberry Pi compatible. Most stuff you find will prioritize Windows, but if it’s marketed to work with the Pi you know it’ll have at least some level of Linux compatibility. Once you find one, try to figure out what chipset it uses, then search if it’s supported by a handful of the distros you wanna try.
To be fair, I’m guessing the majority of Pi’s are used headless anyway. Plus even the older Optiplexes have DVI, which is just HDMI without the audio or fancy stuff like ARC. Won’t be getting 4K or anything, but still a very good video output and IMO adequate for almost all use cases.
Added context for anyone who isn’t aware, Schwarzenegger was the Republican governor of California from 2003 to 2011.
