minus-squarePrathas@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 days agoHoly moly, this is insanely awesome. Can this revive Chromebooks and ancient machines? Can it actually play YouTube videos with sound, though?
minus-squareAnUnusualRelic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 day agoSure. All you have to do is write all the programs you need. You get an editor and a web browser to get you started!
minus-squareyogurtwrong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·2 days agoIt is mostly an incredibly cool hobby project, nothing that you can daily drive nor something that strives to be daily drivable
minus-squareI Cast Fist@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 days agoSliTaz might be an option, ~50mb image with Midori browser and other stuff; assuming the live image correctly detects and activates the wifi, it should be good enough
minus-squareHexesofVexes@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 days agoI’ve run it on a VM - it’s not the most stable experience. Then again, it does run like lightning! For chrome books, consider puppy Linux - it runs from a pen drive but can be installed. Tiny footprint for an OS, and well optimised.
