@Amaroq I had the OG #Pinebook, so I'm curious how you'll like it, please update when you can!

@nicole4fox yeah, @pine64 / #Pine64 make some cool hardware for those that know how to code and/or solder.

• I still find it sad that the #Pinebook got discontinued cuz I'd love to port @OS1337 to it…
  • And with the current #AIbubble the #PinebookPro doesn't seem underpowered anymore...

@samhenrigold love this feeling. I'm having it myself with a $200 secondhand #Pinebook Pro that I got to see what I could do with my intermediate Linux knowledge on a bare bones #ARM machine.

I've been running a tiling window manager, managing all of my homelab servers over SSH, using #GnuIMP just like I did on laptops from ~15 years ago to make wallpapers for my jailbroken #kindle

Not every machine needs to be able to do everything. Especially now with prices on the rise.

#PineBookPro was my primary computer for probably two years. It was good enough for most things, and running off of #Solar was pretty nice to mostly draw under 10 watts. Still use it a few times a week for various things.

The barrel jack power supply is broken, but usb-c power still works, and there's a crack on the plastic frame near the hinge, or I would probably use it more...

I had previously also used the original #PineBook regularly for a couple years, so was a huge upgrade!

If only my #pinebook charged at night instead of draining the battery I could watch the stream live. Are there any powersockets somewhere at #ULB?

And, unrelated: Is @pine64 here?

Sadly that was discontinued, but you should be able to #DIY some #jank-y thing with new COTS parts like a #RaspberryPi #Pi0W(2), cheap LCD, Powerbank and Keyboard/Trackpad in like a Pizza box.

• Not great but good enough…
