Yeah I agree with that. I was giving it a spin. They produced a release with open source attached on github, but not sure how much of the source is in there, and that release seems to be a bit outdated compared to the release I got running on my nanoKVM right now.

Sometimes…and sometimes they have rather good UI. But usually it gets pretty messed up when translated. I’ve found the network speed to be pretty decent for image transfer, even at the inefficient MJPEG format they’re currently using right now. They said they’re working on better encoding. Today I found that the remote keyboard/mouse work on certain desktops, but sometimes stops on text mode or when on BIOS. And then you continue booting, and it works again. Not sure what’s going on with the hardware identifier they’re using…

So…yeah, once they fix the keyboard/mouse issue, and add the function to remotely load ISOs (not only the ones on its own storage), it’s going to be golden. Since it has SSH, I think in theory you should be able to upload the ISOs remotely using SFTP or similar, but I haven´t tested just yet.

Posted on their github. All they have is a Chinese forum. And the wiki is…rough at the moment. Chinese only (not a problem with a translation extension) and a lot of “Todo” sections there. Basically the UI right now has no configuration options, besides “checking for updates” which didn’t tell you which version you’re in anyway. While I was testing I saw the check for updates had a blue dot, so I guess it did manage to reach their servers, and after checking and installing an update…seems that menu had a slight improvement, and now it does say current running version. But that’s it.

But there’s no denying the huge potential for this tiny device. It’s way cheaper and smaller, and consumes way less power. The physical limitations I can see is the NIC is only 10/100 (no gigabit connection), and no wifi. Everything else is software, which I reckon they’ll be working on.

So, you are willing to give your location to Google anytime any app asks for the location permission? A lot of people is not. And there’s been efforts over time to get privacy-friendly location services. So there’s clearly demand for this, even if it’s still niche due to lack of knowledge.

You have no idea how much fun its being.

Nothing to add yet, just glad there’s a replacement effort going, and wish them the best. Hopefully it will be in a useful state soon.,

I didn’t watch the rest after the first episode… It felt so… Forced.

Didn’t the Aurora store get their anonymous profiles killed? You still need to login right?

Where can i find news about this?

You are actually super thirsty, but you can’t swallow because your throat closes when you try to drink.
