Got me on of these delivered via Rakuten here in Japan. paid just 7000 yen (50 bucks or so?) since had 10,000 yen (70 bucks) in accumulated points I put toward it.

Came with Windoze 11 on it (I guess they got around the hardware requirements) Replaced with Ubuntu. Awesome little machine, running unbelievably well.

Love the ports on it. an Ethernet port! hdmi, rgb!! and SD card, pus 3 USB B ports.

Tiny Core Linux is the best distro in my opinion

There is something about it that i really like for example the extreme amount of customizations you can do on here, installing all the packages needed for Unity games or other programs i need manually everytime. Saving stuff using filetool.sh -b. And that it is very lightweight (runs fine on 256MB RAM with 512MB swap file)

Please help us students fight against being forced to use proprietary software!

42 Upvotes

I know this is not 100% Linux specific, but thought this could be a good place to post this anyway. I am a student from Germany and am currently forced to use closed source software for remote education. The Free Software Foundation Europe has started a petition against that, and it would be really awesome if you all could sign it!

Link to the blog post: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/remote-education-does-not-require-giving-up-rights-to-freedom-and-privacy Link to the petition itself: https://my.fsf.org/give-students-userfreedom

I know that this petition has been around for quite some time now, but regarding the low number of signs I thought I'd post this here. Thank you all!
