some quick testing makes me confident that amlogic A311D is another interesting SoC upgrade candidate for MNT Reform (and Pocket) for the future (if there are no surprises with DSI). 4x A73@2.2GHz + 2x A53@1.8GHz is neat, plus Mali G52 which is well supported by panfrost.

Hey there. I've been missing my music tech friends in London and Berlin, so I'm starting a new series of events for sound hackers here in Portland, OR.

Join the meetup group below if you're into messing about with sound. I'll set up streaming for the talks and performances, so there is no need to be local!

#asstodon is more wholesome than I anticipated

great news: cinap_lenrek from the 9front project contributed a patch to our version of u-boot that finally gives us a graphical console (and keyboard) in the bootloader on MNT Reform: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-boundary-uboot/-/merge_requests/12 this will also help with running OpenBSD.
