If you look at it logically, it only makes sense.
With these Supercomputers, you often run on very specialized Hardware which you have to write costum kernels and drivers for, and if you arent willing to spend millions to get Microsoft to support it, your only other Option is Linux really


GNOME network monitors exists.
SearXNG is not a search engine. It is a Frontend for everything from Google to bing.
Ah, finally someone using the European open Search index?


Just saying
The steam deck was 600€
The steam Maschine is 4x faster
I think your math dosent math


Just because Theres a subscription service dosent mean its hardened
Read what I wrote. Its not hardened LINAEGEOS. Its linaege OS with a subscription based DNS blocker you get for free via adbock.


Reminder that the IodeOS and such are simply LinaegeOS forks with a bunch of propriatery shitty subscription services thrown in, and literally hinder the progress on costum Roms VS if they simply just made a PR to add the phone to Linaege.


I could really love where in the article this study is.


512MB of Ram
Arch does technically „„run”” on it™
Otherwise regarding the CPU, I would set up a gentoo with distcc on it, since you dont be daily driving the thing anyways


I love Fedora atomic, really do, but it youre a power user and need docker regularly, you cant go around doing some Atomic bullshit, which in turn breaks stuff (for me it was sddm)
But for stuff like a media center, its godly


Fastmail.


But still, all of it implies you can get Linux on that thing in the first place, which is (especially with fake specs) very hard to guess
Sure, if someone puts in the time to sort those, great
But even at 5$ a piece, and if 1/5 work decently with Linux, you are looking at like 45$ / working piece, or even more if someone is refurbing it
For comparison: I can buy a lot of x64 (kinda nice, since arm is not as supported everywhere) thin client with way more ports, changeable memory and everything, for 30$

Tl:;Dr: sort of
The guy mentioned here got really lucky
the android TV had a standartised rockchip SoC which had a port for Debian, and booting externally was really easy
That’s the 1/100 chance. Even when, what are you going to do with 8 gig of rom and 1 gig ram?
Thats the joke.
Education.
This is actually a pretty good parallel to programming
With an open source project, you gotta know how to clone a git repo and create a pull request
With such an advanced field as Physics, you need to have read other studies at a basic level. If you don’t know how to write a basic study, you clearly lack the intelligence to talk about such things at a professional level
You know you can get a pixel for 500€, with 7 years of updates, right?
