Here is today's reminder that #Discord is NOT a forum!

@turingpi I'm looking at you. (Nice to see you here though!)

Discord is directly hostile to #opensource users.

It is not #accessible
It is not archived.
It does not allow anonymous viewing.
It is not searchable, and neither is it indexed by external search engines.
Data is walled in and unexportable.

Bonus round: Chat is also NOT a forum!

Chat is a chronological firehose, good for temporally transient information, largely ungrouped. Forums are a topical tree, good for longer-lasting information grouped by subject.

If you would write it down in real life (including email) then use a forum.

If you would only say it out loud (in the hallway or on a call) then chat is perfectly fine.

And if you say it out loud while someone else writes it down, tell your assistant to use a forum.

Hm, difficult decision to make. The people who make the the Raspberry Pi cluster board I'm using are now also offering compute modules, 8 core Rockchip RK3588, with up to 32 GB of RAM: https://turingpi.com/product/turing-rk1/?attribute_ram=8+GB

But I haven't found any info on whether it can Netboot. And with things like this, I'm always questioning the SW support...

Definitely undecided right now.

#HomeLab #RK1

#TuringPi2 #RK1 #RockChip boards are open for pre-order and they seem to be going for 32GB RAM versions this time. Meanwhile, the #RaspberryPI #ComputeModule are still scarce. This seems to top those with features though. the real world application is to be seen.
