While the new model has the same octa-core processor as the original, it brings speedier memory, a couple of upgraded ports, and a total of three M.2 connectors

So...nothing "really new" and for a few specific users.

Just install it via pip and then symlink its binary file to /usr/bin.

t. Am running a live stream 24/7 on my orange pi zero 3 (via ffplay/yt-dlp) since forever.

"Why not simply add $HOME/.local/bin to $PATH?"

Because it breaks things. While symlinking it does not.

"Why?"

No idea, honestly.

Also, you can take a step further and make a tmpfs partition @ $HOME/.local and then add the following line to your .bash_profile file: TMPDIR=$HOME/.local pip install --break-system-packages -I --no-input yt-dlp &&.

It's like kissing that ugly girl in a party nobody wants to partake with -- it's useless and completely unnecessary... but oh boy it sure is fun!

Even a fish can act like a dog if you try harder enough.

Eh...

Ventoy (on a comically small external hd -- 8 GiB) and retrogaming/backup-related files on a 1 TB one.

Dietpi for me. It is meant for sbc's, but it can (also) be installed on x86 pcs. And its focus is on minimalism -- as much as possible.

For a second I thought it was "Road rash but with cars" until I realized that isn't possible at all -- specially on the sega genesis.

Looks comfy.

Is it me or the Orange pi 5, Orange pi 5 Pro and the Orange pi 5 Max are (technically) the same?

[–] GustavoM 0 points 5 months ago

I've no idea, honestly. Does it gives me more free time to worry about more important stuff however that will (very likely) not be changed over time by money-hungry developers with false promises of unachievable anonymity and/or privacy in their applications? That I can guarantee a reasonable YES.

[–] GustavoM 2 points 5 months ago

Use Dietpi as your main distro, do a minimal install, install sway and then your usual stuff.

t. Got a orange pi zero 3 w/ 1GiB of ram, did exactly as my suggestion implies and everything works as intended.

This is why I don't care about privacy anymore and use whatever browser works better in my pc/sbc (brave) followed by a network ad-blocker solution (nextdns).
