    Would it be wrong to assume that we're dealing with an Apollo-style issue here (we "no longer have the technology to do it efficiently")? I'm certainly not an expert on nuclear pow…

    (Note: This device is still available for sale. I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned here before)

    I don't see this happening any time soon, but it would be really nice to see an 11.6 inch Framework intended for the education market. The new N series "Intel Processor" (aka Celer…

    >Maybe Gnome is a project to sabotage the FOSS desktop. By that logic, you could say KDE is doing the same thing by being such a buggy mess.

    Yes, but I said "(or if it is, it'll be like CP2077 on the original PS4/XB1)". I simply can't see the game running very well on 10GB of RAM. Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but that's…

    I have a feeling that this isn't going to be available on the Series S (or if it is, it'll be like CP2077 on the original PS4/XB1). Oh well.

    It would be really cool if Apple made an eMate 300-like device again (a relatively cheap educational laptop). Sure, the iPad is a thing, but still.

    I hate to say it, but the Pi is probably the only good option for a cheap (well, MSRP) ARM SBC with okayish software support. A lot of these no-name companies that produce ARM SBCs…

    Yeah, but doesn't the AMD card have things like ECC memory? Doesn't really justify it being so expensive though.

    Ask HN: What are your thoughts on MediaTek chips?

    Specifically their smartphone SoCs, but I don't mind if you discuss their other products as well. I've heard that they've improved a lot in the past few years, but apparently they'…

    "It's important to..." "Ultimately..." I can't think of any more right now. Just thought it was weird how often it says those things.

    I wonder if it would be possible to make a small power bank that would charge a device at a speed close to that. I don't think it would be very safe, but in my mind it would be mor…

    It's really that low? Ah, my bad. That's surprising to me.

    I honestly wasn't expecting the device to use coin cells, but I'm glad that it does. Not everything needs to be rechargeable.

    Yes. I'm guessing it's because nearly every American needs to go to college nowadays (sure, there are other options, but college is the most practical) and as a result they had to …

    I'm not an expert on any of this stuff, but have you checked out any x86 SBCs? The Rock Pi X is a good one that's reasonably cheap (USD $59). The Pi 4's GPU is absolutely pathetic …
