Massive PC Downgrade

8tg

Long story short part of the plan I’ve put in place to absolutely kick ass at everything I do involves two major tech steps:

1) downgrade phone to a basic phone so I don’t get myself stuck in media addiction loops

2) downgrade pc to the most basic of PCs so I can’t do anything other than basic office tasks and email

 

With that being said, my goal here is basically limitless budget for the end result. What I intend to buy is one of the Boox Mira eink monitors and run this off of some basic mini pc with windows 10.

I need to know, what mini pc?

Ideally I need USB type C displayport output. No other factors on performance are important at all. The smaller the better, passively cooled is better, SD card reader is a bonus but not required.

 

Let me know if you have any suggestions.
