But the last release for it will be in December.
There is the fork mentioned in the forum post here.

I don’t use Syncthing and don’t have an Android phone so I can’t really speak for it in terms of functionality.
Id make it 2 or 3 gb. That being said, 1 gb is fine for such a light install. I have a similarly specced pentium M machine running modern debian with OpenBox. For heavier tasks, it was hitting swap (using a web browser). Upping it to 2 gb ram fixed that.
Edit: this also came with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 gpu which probably has a bit more support than the PowerVR gpu in the Atom.
There’s quite a few. I have bunsenlabs helium installed on a 32 bit pentium M laptop. It’s very usable, for a 20 yo single core machine. For basic things, it’s still fine. I do have some gpu acceleration though which is a benefit.
Look, I like 1 indices languages like R and Lua.
I use bunsenlabs helium on my old vaio a series laptop. I use a 32 bit non pae build bc it’s a pentium M that might not support pae. It uses a window manager over a desktop environment.
I’d recommend using a 32 bit distro as they tend to take up a little less ram.
Also I’m on a 4200 rpm PATA HDD. It has 2 gb of ddr ram. It’s slightly too old to get ddr2 which is unfortunate.
OpenBox but that’s a window manager, not a DE.
I was thinking embedded clients would be the bigger issue. Stuff like POS machines, that sort of thing.
It’s 2 4 gb sticks and so I’d have to hope that it supports 16 gb of ddr3.
As for the ssd, that’s in the cards eventually. But since it’s an aio Pc, it’s an utter pain to work on
It’s actually not shit for a hdd which confuses me. It’s just an Hitachi Travelstar hdd. I’ve used faster (on paper) machines that don’t feel as responsive as that computer.
It’s an i5-2430m powered AIO PC with a HDD and 8 gb of ram (its only saving grace). It’s fine for what my dad uses it for, which is largely web browsing for work and excel.
I made that comment to my mom this morning. Also I have tried Linux on that machine and its weird. It has a very old digitizer that sort of works. (Sony Vaio AIO). Disabling it is a #1 priority.
He’s technically inclined enough to install it himself entirely.
Other issue is the wireless card. It’s an old Qualcomm card (not ath9k).
We’ll figure it out once windows 11 stops working. Or if the drive dies.
I need to try that actually for my old laptop. It blue screens if it updates past 1809
As of 15 min ago, my dad has decided to install windows 11 on his 12 year old home pc. Oh boy.
In my experience, USB c is soldered to the main board while the plug is a small module thats attached to the module. It’s easier to replace a small module than replace a whole USB c port. Ideally it’d be on a seperate board too. But it might be a bit more complex.
My sister broke one of the two USB c ports on her Thinkpad and if the second one breaks (both support charging), I can’t fix it easily without sending the motherboard out for repair and spending like $200.
Edit: you can support both USB c and DC plugs. My laptop can (HP pavilion).
Yeah but then it isn’t as light (but 250 grams is nothing tbh). The 64Wh one is 888 grams. Still less than a kilo which is very impressive. Just under 2 lbs.
I also hate the lack of USB ports now. That’s about average for the “nice” laptops of this day and age. I hate juggling around my peripherals bc I don’t have enough type c ports. I do hope it’s a barrel plug for charging and not only USB C pd.
That would be awful. i have a laptop at roughly 31 Wh capacity and it was basically unusable with the 11th gen i5 intel cpu. 2 hours of usable battery life. Take into consideration that batteries tend to live at 80% capacity for a long while and then you realize that laptop will have a 24Wh capacity. Basically two smartphone batteries worth of capacity
Idk if it counts as GenAI but I use Waifu2x to remove jpg artifacts and upscale textures to a useable state.
Power button broke: Kalm
(True story: too bad it happened 2 days before finals)
The atom cpu in this has a powervr sgx545 gpu which is barely supported by anything. Ubuntu 12.04 has some support but it’s only 2d acceleration.
