There are plenty of Linux containers available for ARM in part because a lot of developers want to run Linux containers within macOS on Apple Silicon.
That has had the effect improving the experience of running Linux directly on ARM servers.
All the hardware support for the Mac Mini is complete and working.
I’ve had no problems running Asahi Linux on an M1 Mac Mini.
There are a lot ZOMG posts about just-built keebs. That’s a moment worth celebrating, but I was curious which designs people actually stick with.
I’m enjoying seeing the differences and similarities in what people are posting.
Looks great!
You might like cocot46plus, although only one vendor in Japan seems it have it.
Also check out the Vulpes Majora by Fingerpunch.
This looks similar to the Corne V4, which supports 4 additional interior keys.
Now that you’ve been using this for awhile, how is your typing speed? Or is your preference for it more about comfort and enjoyment?
After starting with an Ergodox, I’ve been using a 42-key Corne keyboard for the last few years.
I love it. My current board is the Boardsource Unicorne.
I’m experimenting the cocot46plus as a “unibody Corne with trackball” for cases when an all-in-one keyboard and pointing device might be more useful, but plan to keep using a Corne a daily driver.
I pair it with MT3 keycaps and Cherry MX2A Browns.
After some practice, my typing speed increased to about 85 wpm on the board vs 65 wpm on my more traditional Happy Keyboard Lite 2 60% keyboard.
I use the markstos layout
Looks nice and gets good reviews!
Fish has continued to add bash compat over time.
If you had Topos you could slowly ramp up your mileage on them.
Topos seem be a little wider than Altras.
He didn’t say he needed to make money farming.
Yes. One thing that motivated me was comparing side-by-side the C920’s result with my iPhone’s webcam. My test subject is a black cat in a black cat bed. With the C920, it’s just one black blob. With the iPhone camera, you can at least see the distinction between the bed and the cat.
C920 is good enough for meetings. I solved the focus problem using the traditional Linux method of writing of udev rule which launches a timer when it’s plugged in, which periodically launches a systemd service, which runs a bash script to make sure it self-corrects at least every 5 minutes.

Moneydance. That was a choice made years ago. It works fine, but we haven’t reviewed the options in years. On the plus side, Moneydance is cross-platform, syncs to a remote server, has mobile apps and is reasonably priced.
My wife has used Linux for over a decade. She primarily uses a web browser, office suite and a money management app.
Those have all been well-covered by Linux for years.

Considering the database itself is relatively small, PostgreSQL could end up largely caching it in memory, so even hosting the DB on an HDD might not feel much slower.
I host using an M1 Mac Mini using Fedora Asahi Linux. Installed easily, no problems. Fast and quiet!
I ran a Minecraft server for a while. Worked fine.
