Someone else with an Illinois licence could probably use that to estimate how long their address that ends with "e Ave" is and narrow it down to fewer than 8 east-west streets in this town of around 12,000.

The solution, of course, is to become an OSM contributor.

Installing SL is part of my standard cloud-init config.

You sound surprised...

Yeah, and termites are basically cockroaches.

All I hope is that this means less drama.

I don't use (or want to use) Apple silicon. I don't have a personal stake in whether Linux runs well on it. But the drama we've seen recently is neither good for Linux as a whole nor good for these specific subsystems.

I do want to see more rust in the kernel, but not at the cost of harming overall kernel development. I want to see more rust in the kernel because I believe that, if done well, that step can make kernel development better.

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.

Obviously they needed to navigate the Northwest Passage on the HMS Cozy.

Holy Whataboutism Batman!

It's actually okay to say that they're right on some topics and wrong on others.

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.
