I'm slowly growing tired of trying to keep my desktop Gentoo machine lightweight and "clean", so it'd be fun to hack on a little computer that I could possibly DIY a case or other arrangement for. Maybe a file/web server, or a "freetoo" machine where I can experiment with being rigidly FSF-APPROVED or other fun shenanigans. I've looked around at the Raspberry Pi 3, the Pocket CHIP (I also have PICO-8 and am hacking something for it), the Pi Zero, and have heard about the Beaglebone and Arduino, though isn't the latter meant for more interactive or robotic thing due to the large array of IO pins? If I had the right tools or gadgets, creating my own UMPC would be really fun. At a minimum, I would prefer HDMI instead of composite or VGA, though it could be headless and I just use SSH or an Adafruit LCD. Any opinions or use cases and stories would be much appreciated. I would prefer running Gentoo on it, but Debian, Mint, or Slackware would be tolerable. --=20 Daniel Campbell - Gentoo Developer OpenPGP Key: 0x1EA055D6 @ hkp://keys.gnupg.net fpr: AE03 9064 AE00 053C 270C 1DE4 6F7A 9091 1EA0 55D6 --ktRVOJCo1GI9KeMHSw5NQtEbd3mOoaUSf-- --PRcD0xkGuj7FPOR7Eu6cNUtU1OxBPs91E Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJX/iTjAAoJEAEkDpRQOeFwW7IQALcN8w5unRpclwsY7EnUJfS8 QX3rARZHjKVHK8qq9CdnikLN2AYQtwYbHCLPmuStB8rU8PkEPrZqAOoWlW5+2DkM 6SWLlIySwueVQikroW6KunsF3aLH/1fIidzbVfDOXTmaYtPKyUe5/f2bsvTAGkE1 v9HSonFzpQHGubUhwA5q4MvNK8x3cIsIRVckvFVinRSPPXcGEHB6s4TF3ayASTgq eZFKPMOol0mQjIIqsYtzAMTxLEM/kZPirCtsKXxAVCFwXObSuVQfl068kwAJe17Q SM4UTWe5wuuT+MhgEVs5SGdDfuBa+JUEGxSi4iaQoBxCRAHtuUPtdJoLsT8e857i KoRhP+KnWKEeHnwBpXVq/jdWHeEtYAO0yz37z8WUKUrjbIeM3fel5haClIZGpETb YdcCituGYZqXBiTy9LCSaEstuwm/KC0bbPSeHnQPFUVZbjeMnTFG4/4mEPEKiVaS i7cSeXvq90+aA92YCkG4yXdGCXhZbKeY2BPNdDMASp1BrpvvrAHQD/EOx5ZQ8Mf7 Xli3Ay6BhPxoMwDpRFr7lUj30eV+WqwGUcyDkv3G1aTWg1tB/Z3ZM1g1uG3BrYaQ UX0SHS1OGgnX12Kiexu7w50QbJ0Ar7YVKe8ZZk61MyG19q6vVp48qImq5uCr7hzL 3luqcUqnxbGFAQu2xvvD =5Ogs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --PRcD0xkGuj7FPOR7Eu6cNUtU1OxBPs91E--
