Sometimes when I venture off into the land of ease and x86, away from SBCs with like 5-15W TDPs, I realize how much faster computing can be.

Then I look at power draw and efficiency and realize, yes, there's always tradeoffs!

But it is nice just... having things work.

@geerlingguy I've seen people saying that RISC V with Linux may be faster to implement and adopt than ARM, which would be great if it ends up being true. I know youve tested a few RISC boards. what do you think will happen first? a Decent Just Works ARM standard or RISC V?

Attached: 4 images Nerd tiny success of the day : - from SBC in in drawer to server in ~15min While watching "RISC-V was supposed to change everything—How's it going?" by Jeff Geerling I thought "Wait a minute I have a RISC-V SBC somewhere" then shortly after : - 110Gb file server on my LAN🤩 Steps as pictures
