System 76nis overpriced because they pay US wages. If you like their hardware, check out Clevo resellers in Europe. Same shit, lower price point. Firmware can be upgraded with the pop_os tools, and in general in any Linux distro.

Have you considered The European Union? University education is very affordable, and you can live off 100k USD for 2-3 years comfortably. I can recommend the Netherlands, good tech universities here. It would also be an experience that few of your generation can afford.

Perl came as a reaction to the Unix tooling that was awk regex and all that jazz. It was designed to replace those tools and it did a good job at that. Times have changed, however, and perl no longer fills a function. We have python now, which surpasses perl in functionality.
