Today a #PINE64 #STAR64 joined my SoC family.
The #yocto image worked out of the box and offers a standard #linux desktop feeling.
Performance is like on #raspberry PI 4. It runs simple stuff well, but heavy browser content slows down the whole device.
Yes, there are some software bugs, but that thing is new, and I'm sure improvements will come soon.
I'm thrilled about the arrival of RISC-V in the customer market, because we need more diversity in technology.

Guys and gals, to raise some funds for some fun new hardware, I am selling my #pinephone OG beta convergence edition. Any takers here? #linux #pine64 (shipping from holland)
Does the pine time have any benefits if you dont enable bluetooth and have it connected to a phone? I know i wouldn't get notifications, but do other things work like heart rate, steps, clock etc, without being connected to the phone? periodic connections would be fine i just don't want to have Bluetooth on all the time.
Question for any Pinetime by @PINE64 users. I'm connected using Gadgetbridge on Android and I've got weather information being displayed on the watch via Breezy Weather. Is Infinitime able to show conditions in F° instead of C°? I can't seem to find an option or any information on how to change this or if it's even possible. The weather display feature isn't really useful to me in C°

'There is also progress on the WiFi driver of the PineTab2. Some releases already ship with an initial support for the on-board WiFi chip. It is however important to note that the work on the driver is ongoing and has not reached a software maturity yet.'

#Pine64's RISC-V Tablet Gets #KDE-Powered Desktop Image :pine64: :kde:

@PINE64
I ordered a product 46 days ago and soon received a notice that it had shipped. When tracking said it hadn't moved from China for over a week, I tried to learn why. I still don't have it or know when, or if, I will get it.
I cannot get answers from Pine64. I have tried using a support ticket and they were useless about shipping-- and fobbed me off to sales, I have tried writing to sales 3 times and I have tried contacting them via Mastodon but have had no contact from either. I'm frustrated and disappointed.

I can't for the life of my figure out how to type a hyphen ( - ) on my #pine64 keyboard case. Anyone? #linux #pinephone
And yes, I know it should be Fn+F9. But that does nothing. Also AltGr doesn't seem to work. What am I doing wrong?
I ordered a PineTime smart watch from Pine64 on June 24 and it got hung up in customs three days later. I've been writing to sales@(pine) and haven't had a reply. Do any of you fine people have the email address of an actual person at Pine you could share with me, please? Thank you!
