It works very well and there is no speed difference at all. Of course you wont ever get anything worth in life without either putting in the work or paying either with money or your privacy.

Thank you for this. It is brilliantly put.
I‘ve been their webhosting for 10 years and besides some minor errors (website didnt work for 30 mins here and there) I‘m very happy.
I informed myself about their cloud programme with help of a sales rep and although it is quite expensive compared to hetzner, it seems very usable.
I dont think you need to worry about them for a vps. Its not like they would rob you or your data will be lost. They might turn out to be slightly better or worse than hetzner long term which would both be fine in my book.
The problem for me is the shipping. It was more than 100$ for the dc roma laptop 2. maybe the tablet is less.
In any case, I‘m definitely going for risc-v as a hobby dev and admin.
I agree that the playerbase isnt huge. I do think a small dedicated playerbase is pretty nice though.
And you have no telemetry, no chat restrictions and its free.
The redstone is a large feat indeed. I started working on that but had to stop due to time constraints. Its still in my head though.
All in all there is just too much great stuff someone with a little drive and a little coding knowledge can do in the foss ecosphere.
Oh man… that article is very long but the first 10 or 20 paragraphs make me nauseous.
Where I live, a lot of smallish companies look for people with experience rather than certificates or degrees. I‘m a hobbyist turned professional and it shows. I cant talk any of the jargon but I handle servers well and I make short work of most small company IT problems. That and the ability to think in business processes works well.
Understood!
I meant much too complex to grasp without more context, sorry if that came out wrong.
I didnt think of the pi being potentially used for high resolution/audio quality footage. My pi runs on a 720p tv so the internal gpu has a lot less to do than yours so I guess its possible that was the problem.
Good luck
Just run a sustained load over the cable in both directions and/or use testing tools. Even if the cables were okay, something is sincerely wrong with that setup and its not the pi as they work very well.
Your setup sounds much too complex and misses key information and troubleshooting steps. The flat cables are kind of the cherry on top.
You need to start laying out which devices grab which stuff from where and which cables, switches, routers and panels you are using.
Otherwise people wont be able to help you. A new router isnt going to help you at all.
Example: I run plex on a terra miniserver, stream to my phones and computers over wifi (the server is connected via cat7 wired networking with a tested gigabit connection). I also stream to a libreelec-pi in another room which is also on wifi and has issues sometimes. That is why I‘m gonna wire the connection later this month so that is no issue. I also have an appletv in the livingroom which is connected by wire and has no buffering. There are 3 gigabit switches and a fritz!box also connected but they‘re all gigabit as well: Between PCs and the main router, appletv and the main router and the server and the main router.
Yeah no. Forget it. We‘re not speaking the same language.
My interpretation was by far the most generous to your position, because it’s the only way it’s coherent.
You’re entitled to your opinion, I guess.
hardware that doesn’t actually provide anything anyone can realistically use
Thats misrepresenting reality and making assumptions while clearly showing lack of expertise
at a reasonable price
Thats completely arbitrary. If a price is reasonable or not depends on many factors. Obvious oversymplification.
That’s treating a current purchase as an imaginary investment in maybe eventually being able to buy something useful.
This shows that you have no idea what you are talking about. Small companies and open source projects depend on people buying their products instead of cheaper, sometimes better performing products of big conglomerates for other reasons than price alone.
I’m not buying hardware that doesn’t suit my needs as an investment hoping maybe it eventually will.
You were misrepresenting things. Your needs have nothing to do with things not being functional. Something can be perfectly functional and not meet someones needs. Nobody said you should buy it as an investment.
Yeah, thats the reason why we‘re in this capitalist hellhole. Perfection comes from billionaire money, nothing else.
Interesting! Thanks for chiming in. I‘ll read up about it.
Sounds like a cool idea! :)
Indeed I am. I‘m in posession of a working laptop but I could maybe order a riscv tablet from pine64. I already have the pinetime and the stuff is pretty awesome.
Okayyyy… thats not great. I just read one of the threads and thats scary.
The person(s?) maintaining this seems to be VERY BAD at communicating. They did fix the auto start problem but did not at all discuss this from what I see. Thats not great.
