What will the boys at Linux Incorporated come up with next?

It’s just a proof of concept. They wanted to keep it clean and easy to read while still showing off how to run the function in the background

Neat!

Oh nice! That’s the key type I use anyway, so nice to know I don’t have to pass as many options in now

Middle right and bottom right are my favorites

I just use the defaults for everything, haha! Just grub2 for the bootloader, openrc for the init system.

By “home” do you mean DE/WM? If so, I use dwm for my laptop and sway for my desktop.

Gentoo. Been using it for over 3 years now, and I haven’t found a reason to leave yet.

From what I hear, it just makes things slower, and it’s proprietary. Basically exactly what OP said. It also makes a ton of loop devices, so if you’re working with them yourself it’s kind of annoying.

What if wheel referred to a wheel of cheese? Best of both worlds that way!

Oh ok, cool!

Alpine is very lightweight. I think it was built so that it would run well inside docker containers, which means it should be fairly easy for low-end computers to run it.

Afaik, it doesn’t come with a DE out of the box, so it won’t be very user-friendly

It’s so true though. I found an old game on my mom’s old PC from years ago. It doesn’t even exist on the market anymore. I started it up with Wine and it ran perfectly. My brother tried it on his Windows 11 laptop and it wouldn’t run. Weird how that works, haha!

In the uses section, it mentions Tux being shown at the top of the boot sequence for Gentoo.

It’s kinda funny because I’ve been using Gentoo for almost 4 years and never knew that there was one Tux per CPU core until I read this article. That’s fun!

Just thought it put out the same number on every system I guess, haha!

Found a typo on line 172: quesiton -> question

Oh ok, cool!

Got a link handy? It’s not coming up with anything in the browser for me.

Yeah, the one’s off sipeed’s site should work. I’ve never used it though, I basically built my own, tiny LFS image for it. Also, keep in mind that if you get a Lichee RV, it will be significantly less powerful than the Lichee 4A. It’s based on the single-core Allwinner D1 CPU and only has 512MB of memory. It’s a fun little board though!

Edit: Just wanted to clarify: I have no experience with the 4A, only the RV model. I wish I did though. It looks pretty cool!

Good old Hackers (1995)

I think he said in an earlier video that the Lichee 4A comes with Debian pre-installed.

I own its predecessor, the Lichee RV. It recommends flashing one of their images to a flash card for that one, but I ended up compiling my own bootloader, kernel, etc just because I wanted to, for fun.
