That’s probably an N100. Its actual TDP is 15 watts, but it works reasonably well when capped at 6W. They are good devices, but they are bigger than Pi and are whiny. Their fans never turns off and creates background noise. I have quite a f

We put different meanings behind the word trust. Yes, Raspbian is not 100% dependable/reliable, esp. when it comes to NVMe boot. They're trying to tune things aggresively for 5. I got three eeprom updates in two days in one case,

Yeah, but an N95/N100 box is not much bigger than a C64 power brick, either, which is both fascinating and frightening at the same time. :) I think I can convert my spare Pi3 to a "boot to an emulator" system.

There are some killer features every Pi has: 1. Non-brickable: Either your SD Card is gone, or your board is broken. There's no middle. 2. Trusted OS: You can trust the OS from get go. 3. Customizable install with flasher: Spend 30 s

I don't think so. I actively use some of the Pi alternatives, and none of them are well-polished and stable as Raspberry Pis. Also, an IPO doesn't mean that a company will go downhill from there. For example, when Bending Spoons g

No. From my experience, many people think that AI is an infallible assistant, and even some are saying that we should replace any and all tools with LLMs, and be done with it.

The thing is, Debian's solvers are always deterministic. Given from a known state, it always ends int the same state. This allows getting/setting selection lists with "dselect", and using apt for system automation feasib

Free Software ecosystem is not black and white (i.e. Build a community or don't share). I put my software in the open with a license which I think is fair, because I hope someone might find it useful, with a completely neutral stance.

As a person who writes code for himself, I generally write a note about the state of the repository. In my case, if there's no commit for three years, this means that code is in production for at least three years, and is not broken on

Considering they did first small-room-sized wireless electricity distribution, I'm not sure they're that different from DARPA in terms of know-how and amount of secret sauce.

Yeah, I know. Namespaces are pretty cool outside containers too. My comment was more of a soft jab against using containers as the ultimate "thing" for anything and everything. I prefer to use them as "statically linked bin

It's an incidental security boundary because CGroups happen to isolate the process fairly well .

It's a matter of habit. I personally don't search for answers on the internet to begin with. I use Zeal/Dash to store docs of the tools I use locally, and directly read reference docs for what I need. If I need information fr

Putting that there's no guarantees for correctness for AI models aside, you miss the opportunity to read the docs and learn (or at least be aware of) the whole capabilities which may help you in the future. You can bookmark the relevan

Actually, Plato is not wrong. I'm a big pen and paper user, and write everything down. While it allows me to turn back six months, I can't turn two weeks back without my notebook in some cases. Brain has a strange ability to under

Many SUVs' rear glass are already so high and tinted out of the factory. I rarely get to see what's beyond these vehicles when I'm in traffic. Nothing beats having a proper following distance for safety.

This is the 5th generation of the device. I don't think it's a response to climate change in any way. Japan and South Korea is obsessed with self image and (sometimes perceived) personal hygiene, so the device doesn't hit
