Pardon my French. The MNT Reform (laptop of legacy standard parts) looks *shit*. => https://mntre.com/media/reform_md/2020-11-27-reform-production-update-nov-2020.html MNT Reform Laptop Thank you for the pointer to the dev board, I can afford. => https://coral.ai/products/dev-board i.MX8M cheaper alternative to iMXM8MQ What you say about industry practices is true from your point of view. Maybe the 99% is invisible to you and the people in the small niches you know of. I understand the Fujitsu Fugaku Arm chip tops HPC for now. I know Tesla uses Red Hat, NASA and others use AWS, and you can't say Tesla has not transformed autotech. For me a happy outcome would be to score resources from ARM and Solid-Run for 9front devs to work on, charming the marketing execs and their aspirated visions for the future we all want to have is fine by me.
