@lymenzies From my own experience I can tell that even the Original #RaspberryPi and #PiZero can run #RaspberryPiOS all day long and will run circles around the orginal #EeePC701, only getting beaten by the #Vaio #P11Z when it comes to #RAM and #IO options.

Granted a #CM4 or #CM5 with > 2GB RAM will shift the tides but those alone cost more than a used #Wyse3040 and #upcycling a #ThinClient into something like a tiny luggable is propably more budget friendly and useful anyway, espechally since built-in Gigabit #Ethernet and #USB 3.0 really kick ass, so you'd propably be better served doing some #PoE / Wide-Range DC-in & battery setup to make good use of the oversized build volume at hand.
Maybe take some "THICC" 21700 LiFePO4 cells or one of those #LiFePO4 motorcycle batteries for a spin? Pretty shure that you can sqeeze battery runtime measured in DAYS out of it without much tweaking.

@kkarhan@infosec.space I see pi zero on the list.…

For less than $25 (RPi0, old power supply, spare Micro-USB cables) you can block most ads on the LAN and increase digital privacy by routing your DNS traffic through DoH. This is freaking amazing.

I spent the afternoon trying to build a piece of #rustlang involving #bluer for a #raspberrypi zero w, it still doesn't work 🤔
I'm using the appropriate GCC linker, the good cargo target...
It works when I compile on the #pizero (it takes 2h) but doesn't work when cross compiled in a aarch64 container... Sometimes I get a DBUS error, sometimes something else...
Any ideas for me?
