For me, it’d be a close one between the Steam Deck and the Pinephone Pro. Although, the thought of having a phone that runs GNOME sounds like a whole lot of fun, so I think that I’d have to give it to the Pinephone Pro

cheap risc-v boards that can run a full linux distribution
there are some cool projects I’m following, but they’re pretty much all in china, and only available via taobao 😬
Could be great if people reunited and created a groupal account with some of them in the countries to which is send to send these things back to us.
This is something I never did to a big scale but to a little one with family and friends.
I am the one with the account at the service and receive the things, then I send them back or, if their address is allowed, I send the things directly to them.
They just pay me what it costs at all.
yeah, that’s be nice 🤗
though the seller/manufacturer of the board I’m eyeing promised to organize a group buy for interested people in eu, and put it on aliexpress some time later
I would prefer if they used an OpenCart instance or similar, to minimize the use of NonFree software by the people who buy board.
I think this is my answer, too. There’s been so much movement with risc-v and it’s been so rapid, it could completely alter the chip market in the very near term.
A little question: are the projects you are following Libre Hardware or are just Open Design with the Free RISC-V ISA and that is all?
i’m not really sure tbh
the particular one that I really want to get is called mangopi, and it’s based on the allwinner D1 core, which in turn uses alibaba’s xuantie C906 core, which is open source, however I’m unsure whether other components of the board are open source (like other controllers and stuff), but at least it claims so on their website
:3c
Edited: Thank you, BTW.
yeah, arm/riscv manufacturers are infinitely better at naming their components than x86 component manufacturers 😄
