The 671B model although ‘open sourced’ is a 400+GB download and is definitely not runnable on household hardware.
What? You don’t have a spare $6,000 to run nonsense generators at home? Peasant…

Really sorry about this but this sounds like the premise to a shitty boomer joke:
“If I wanted to spend another 6000 for a home nonsense generator, I’d get married again!”
etc.
