#OrangePi Now has an #OpenSource #RISC-V SBC [With M.2 Slot]

TL;DR: The #CPU is too weak for a #desktop system. Without #HDMI, there are much cheaper IoT RISC-V systems.
The RISC-V chip it uses is the same one as found on the #Milk-V Mars, with Orange Pi pointing out that it can run Linux distributions, pointing to #Debian #Linux on its download page.
With Milk-V Mars, starting #Firefox takes 20 seconds under Debian. Nobody really wants to work with this #performance. You could certainly shorten the time with a very lightweight customized Linux, but it is questionable whether these adjustments will be made.
What's better is that #PCIe is on the underside, unlike the Mars, and the #Wifi is onboard.
If you are looking for a pure IoT solution without HDMI, the Milk-V Duo S is a much cheaper hardware that runs under Linux.
Someone at work had an extra monitor (HP, as it happens) and so I asked if he wouldn't mind if I could have it for my office. Now when I get to work, I can plug in my #laptop and I have an extra monitor for doing stuff, similar to at home. Of course with #GNU #Linux, there's no fuss about compatibility as long as it's a standard connection (which is #HDMI in this case).

This is part 2 of my in-depth #A500 restoration project, where I explore many #modern #upgrades and #expansions of this #classic #machine, including #HDMI #conversion, #floppy #emulation/recovery, Amiga #acceleration/emulation, Sous Vide #retrobriting and even an old-school jam with my original Amiga #MIDI #setup with my #Yamaha #B200 #synth and #Alesis #HR16 #drum machine.

Roku gets patent for injecting ads through HDMI
"When the media device pauses the media content, the display device can determine that a pause event has occurred and insert an ad shown on the display device."

#HDMI Forum to #AMD: No, you can’t make an open source HDMI 2.1 driver
We finally need a legal obligation for open source. This is the only way we can be more environmentally friendly and conserve resources by reusing old devices. Who among the HDMI freaks guarantees us updates in 10 years' time or new drivers for the next generation of operating systems?
