Too busy to curate my SBCs so they are in storage and i've spun up useful debians in UTM on a apple silicone mini - compiled lagrange in less than 40 secs and won't brick the SD card at some random time:-)

I did have a decent workflow an a pi4 but an overhead bang and fork TS did for it. I still use a Pi3B for my gemini server - in the loft slaving away for months:-) I was left with a VIM4 that would run gnome (i cannot stand gnome) or no accel and a RockPro64 that would not accel - drivers wayland - i use xfce. · 1 year ago
The RPI2 was replaced by the HC4, I tried to use it before as PICO-8 development board, then as emulator board, but eventually I found a better use,:it will be soon used to run PiHole, manly to erase YT from my house.
THe Odroid-HC4 was bought to replace the RPI2 as home and media server, it is currently used as home NAS and it works pretty well.
I recently bought a LibreComputer Renegade and it will be the new, hopefully more performant, 16-bit emulation board. · 1 year ago
Here how has changed my scenario.
My Odroid-XU4 was initially bought to emulate my favorite 16/32 bit console but it was replaced by the Switch and almost forgotten, but now it has became my daily driver for my clandestine activities, I stopped using the internet connection of my work to check my emails, go to Gemini, Mastodon, etc... I do all these stuff through the XU4 a VCN connection and Android USB Tethering. It is pretty usable, I am still surprised about that!
