Installing SL is part of my standard cloud-init config.
You sound surprised…
Yeah that’s basically it for me. I have a collection of dev boards, old hardware and stuff other people were tossing out set up for a variety of purposes (Kubernetes clusters, two build farms, network boot, etc.). None of it is because I feel I “need” any of that for self hosting. In practice two old desktops with a bunch of drives would be perfectly capable of providing everything I need including redundancy. I have all that stuff because I’m learning and experimenting.
The SOC uses U-Boot to boot. The Imagination GPU is more of a problem, but there’s work underway to get an open source driver fully working. I’ve got my own kernel and mesa running on multiple dev boards and, while I can’t run a full desktop with mesa on that PowerVR driver yet, I have been able to render some basic things with it. I can, however, install a 6.6 kernel and some userspace binaries to get full acceleration ITMT.
This isn’t really ready for standard consumer use anyway. The point of this is basically as a glorified developer board, which was exactly what I bought it for.
Given that this is changing the product itself, it’s more repurposing than reusing, which I’d say fits between reuse and recycle.
The native performance of this board is similar to a Raspberry Pi 3. With Box64 it’ll be significantly worse.
There’s quite a push behind RISC-V now, in part because China seems to like the idea of not being tied to American or British companies for their CPU architecture. We’ll see whether it actually pass out or not.
If someone who makes ARM hardware wants to make a mainboard, I’d imagine Framework will work with them under the same conditions they’re working with DeepComputing on the RISC-V one.
TIL Senegal is in America.
I support Arch, but I will refuse the business of anyone who would choose to install Arch on their machine.
Oh no a pun thread is emerging!
Kinda?
I view Oracle as worse than Google.
Theoretically? Well Manhattan has a population density of about 73,000 people per square mile so it’s certainly possible to safely provide for 30,000 people in the space of Guantanamo Bay.
In practice? There’s no way they’ll be doing anything like that, and the cruelty is the point.
It’s way easier for me to have a vegetarian diet when I’m eating at home. At restaurants the vegetarian options almost always contain the one thing I’m allergic to, so I often have no choice but to eat meat when I go out.
FWIW Dolphin only does it if the filesystem doesn’t provide a way to add that metadata directly to the directory and you change the view configuration for that directory away from your standard configuration. Which is how the standard describes to do it. (Some file managers incorrectly add those .directory files to every directory you visit.)
A mac will add a .DS_Store file to any directory just by breathing on it.
Well this should put the question of the US annexing Greenland to rest, as we know Donald Trump has historically been very good about following the democratic will of the people.
I don’t like GNOME, but I’ve honestly had consistently worse experiences with Cinnamon.
Well yeah, they hadn’t managed to get past bananas in their self defense classes.
