This is a photo taken on a #pinephone running #manjaro arm of a 3d printed hard drive rail for a proliant g2 through g7 I think. I can't find the button to save the picture though so *this* photo was taken and posted with an android...
@thibaultamartin Well Apple started it 🙂 Overnight it seems Intel machines are not useful any more.
I use a Pinebook Pro, running on Arm64. It's cheap, quiet (fanless) and lasts a long time on batteries. I just wished we had a more powerful Arm processor inside.
I use Raspberry Pi 4 on Manjaro, it performs surprisingly well compared with my Windows desktop. For a fraction of the price.
So I think Arm is really better for us 🙂
@lupyuen I was wondering what's with the ARM trend these days.
Would you mind detailing why you find ARM to be better suited for you than intel 🙂?
Wished there was an #Arm version... Not going back to #Intel any more 🤔

@PINE64 maybe pinebook pros would be more cost effective for them https://opensource.com/article/20/7/donate-linux

"... we have resumed exploring the creation of an external keyboard for the PinePhone. To be precise, we have approached a vendor and began exploring our options for a slide-out keyboard akin to those used on the Nokia N900."

Woohoo! Just ordered the #PinePhone #postmarketos with Convergence Package. So looking forward to having some fun with this 😜 📱 🎉 🚀
My #Pinephone order status
I ordered my #UBports Community Edition Pinephone at the end of May. Obviously with the raging global pandemic, I knew I'd have to be patient.
Early last week I got an email from PINE64 telling me they still couldn't ship to Canada through regular mail, and if I didn't upgrade to DHL shipping before Friday last week, they'd cancel my order. On the PINE64 forum some people were mad about it. But I understand they've been dealing with an impossible situation.

#Jolla Opens New Forum for #SailfishOS Discussions
The until now used TJC website will be replaced with a new discussion forum. The new forum should provide a better platform for developer collaboration since TJC has not been the optimal forum for serving developers’ needs. The new website includes several sub-forums which allow discourses and deeper analysis for every type of discussions.
