The Jetson Nano launched with Ubuntu 18.04, today, this is still the only officially supported distro for it. I have no reason to think this would be different with the Orin and Thor series, or even with the DGX Spark with its customized Ubuntu/"DGX OS".

I still don't understand why they couldn't support them properly. There are so many situations in which they could be better than alternatives, only to be hamstring by the poorest OS support.

You see, a small startup like NVIDIA just doesn't have the budget to support their older devices the same way a multi-trillion dollar company like Raspberry Pi can.

I assume that's Thunderbolt 5? From my experience, eGPUs over USB 4/TB3 work just fine (from a technical point of view, in practice 40Gbps isn't enough BW and performance is shit)

Yes, that works but what's needed here is remotely accessing RAM on another PC via RDMA via Thunderbolt. Not accessing a standalone eGPU.

Since everyone is complaining about the naming schemes of CPUs, I'll pitch in.

An Intel Core Ultra 7 155U and a Core Ultra 7 155H, are very different classes of CPUs!

If you're comparing laptops, you'll see both listed, and laptops with the U variant will be significantly cheaper, because you get half the max TDP, 4 fewer cores, 8 fewer threads, and a worse GPU.

This isn't to say the 155U is a bad chip, it's just a low-power optimized chip, while the 155H is a high-performance chip, and the difference between their performance characteristics is a lot larger than you'd expect when looking at the model numbers. Heck, if you didn't know better, you might text your tech-savvy friend "hey is a 155 good?", and looking that up would bring up the powerful H version.

And the 285H is lower performance than a 275HX.

Their laptop naming scheme at least is fairly straightforward once you figure it out.

U = Low-TDP, for thin & light devices

H = For higher-performance laptops, e.g. Dell XPS or midrange gaming laptops

HX = Basically the desktop parts stuffed into a laptop form factor, best perf but atrocious power usage even at idle. Only for gaming laptops that aren't meant to be used away from a desk.

And within each series, bigger number is better (or at least not worse - 275HX and 285HX are practically identical).

Don't forget the V series in there. I have an Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 258V in my Thinkpad. I think they're still being made. I bought an open box Thinkpad T14s Gen 6 with it - they come with a nicer GPU than the Ultra 7 255U.

The V series is a one-off thing Intel did, but they don't have a direct successor planned.

Previously, they had a P series of mobile parts in between the U and H series (Alder Lake and Raptor Lake). Before that, they had a different naming scheme for the U series equivalents (Ice Lake and Tiger Lake). Before that, they had a Y series for even lower power than U series.

So they mix up their branding and segmentation strategy to some extent with almost every generation, but the broad strokes of their segmentation have been reasonably consistent over the past decade.

Very interesting. I was a bit out of the loop on Intel mobile CPUs; I looked up the benchmark specs for it when purchasing and saw that it generally trounces the 255U.

I've been really quite happy with it - most of the time the CPU runs at about 30 deg C, so the fan is entirely off. General workloads (KDE, Vivaldi, Thunderbird, Konsole) puts it at about 5.5 watts of power draw.

What does legally compliant even mean here? I can print a document, scribble on it with a pen, and scan it and that's legal, so how high can the digital bar be?

That's super cool! Not needing to install is great for accessibility for new users, and I think this would also be cool if it can be embedded into other websites as a viewer (like imagine opening up a Git repo with KiCAD files in it and being able to explore them in an integrated viewer)

That's a neat idea! To be honest my brain is overflowing with ideas too, right now I want to just bring all the apps one. Or... Actually just bring the layout editor up first :) I'm trying hard to live in the present...

There's already some work in that direction, too: https://github.com/theacodes/kicanvas

Or enter a public key + some encrypted data to get the private key

My setup has Immich in a Docker container, which is itself in a Proxmox LXC container.

I then have Proxmox back it up to Proxmox Backup Server running in a VM, and it has a cron job that uploads the whole backup of everything to Backblaze B2.

The backup script to B2 is a bit awful at the moment because it re-uploads the whole thing every night... I plan on switching to something better like Kopia at some point when I'll get the time

It's annoying to export in bulk because you have to use the bulk export tool?

Yes. Google's Takeout took is pretty bad, UX-wise.

I tried Firefox Android, it instantly loaded a 3D view of a 2D map projection with glowing planes at an airport

This runs a container then virtualizes Windows inside it using KVM

As you can see - running the container doesn't work.
