You could install a debian bullseye into the NTFS filesystem alongside with windows, and use the NTFS FS as your root filesystem. That has been possible for a while, but had performance caveats due to the use of fuse-ntfs. There are a some

Tables are fairly easy to extract from org-files, even with some sed/awk function, e.g. `getOrgTable() { awk -vT=$1 '/^#\+NAME: /&&$2~T{f=1;next};/----/{next};!/^\|/{f=0};f' $2 ; }` The a

And If you name tables in org-mode, you can reference them from shell with some simple functions, e.g. `fromOrg tsv Network.org:[MAC-List]`

Repurposeable QuadCore ARM SOCs are fairly easy to find in the form of previous-gen Android TV Boxes, for fractions of the price of the RPI4. Some are weaker, some are slightly stronger, but in many embedded situation these do well enough.

Afaik, the Intel Network cards are more like dedicated CPUs, that can run various "programs", one of which is "standard, fully-transparent network card". If signed with the right key, some can run entire stacks, such as

Some people I talk to have started repurposing cheap previous-gen Android TV QuadCore ARM SBCs for the embedded (mostly headless) projects they previously used NUCs and PIs in. They are available at moderate quantity with short delay at und

Well, where do you draw the line? Is e.g. the SmartTV an IOT-device, or not? If you want the TV to reach the Internet for some things (e.g. Netflix, Youtube, WhatEv), but also isolate it from your other devices, block ads, yet be able to us
