My new Cosmo Communicator arrived yesterday. It is designed to be linux compatible and android. So after following the official instructions I now have both Debian Linux and Android running on it.

KDE isnt well suited for a device with somewhat limited mouse capabilities (there is a trackpad like device on the back that acts as a second display), also it is KDE, ew. so first thing I did was install i3-gaps which is a primarily keyboard based tiling window manager. It works like a charm!

Everything so far has pretty much worked out of the box (though updating the firmware I did think I bricked it for a moment, thankfully it is fixed).

My i3 configuration is the same as on my desktop, im happy!

@freemo I love how in the OS part of the shop page it says it plans on running kali....imagine your server getting trashed by a guy on that. Comedy of the century.

@Co At best you might be able to exploit a few obvious vulnerabilities. This thing isnt bruteforcing anything though!

@freemo that one person will somehow hook up a 3090 to it.

@Co If anyone is going to figure out a way to hack a 3090 onto a palm top arm computer its going to be a linux user :)

@freemo it wouldn't be a mac or windows user thats for sure as well, us linux usrs are the cool kids.

@Co I'm pretty sure mac users dont even know that their computer has hardware in it at all. They think the images wind up on the screem through fiber optic cables direct from mac HQ that is just fed by a projector displaying the screen on the other end.

@freemo I love this paragraph you just typed.
