We need this in Esperanto and the lost languages of Lutruwita.

So, in UQL?

Of?

None of your selection criteria describe what you intend to use it for. Graphic art, spreadsheets, video editing, YouTube consumption, word-processing, software development, 3D modelling, whatever.

For some use cases a large 4k TV is excellent, for others you need a $10k budget.

Scott Manley has a couple of things to say about the fallout. It’s not good.
