The 3dverse link'd in has: "There are no jobs right now."

Also no careers link on your website?



Light-weight tool to graph bandwidth use aggregated over multiple network devices. For Linux. Zero dependencies.


It looks nice. Certainly more colorful than iftop and has more history.


Heh... I do feel like a dinosaur at times.

Do you have a suggestion for a better platform?


OP here...

My first linux computer was a 33Mhz i386. I can't remember the amount of RAM, but it must have been 2MB or maybe 4MB.

This thing has 64MByte of RAM, after login, 44MB of it is free.


OP here...it got a little better with a patched picoprobe.

I wrote up part 2 here: http://thelittleengineerthatcould.blogspot.com/2022/12/the-8...

But yeah, not plug-n-play. I still have to find out how to get network or SD-Card.


it is quite interesting that it actually has an sdcard slot but doesn't use it as a boot device? Like wtf? With only 128 MB of flash what kind of OS can one even fit on that...

Nothing about this board makes any sense lol.


Stay tuned, according to the Bouffalo Lab BL808 SoC datasheet (page 90) series numbering system that the board is based on, they will probably have more RAM and ROM capacity in the later versions of the SoC:

Yes, but those are microcontrollers. This is a computer on a chip with mmu, and three cores, 64MB ram.


The NanoPi Duo has 4 cores and 512MB of RAM which is super usable. Includes WiFi etc. I'm not sure why RISC-V is such a draw here, considering the boards limitations.


It is a SoC with MMU. It just looks like a MCU.

64MByte RAM, (45MByte of it free after logging in.)


It also has MCU cores in addition to the application core.

In fact I don't think there's anything stopping you from just running on the larger MCU cores and simply disabling the large core if you really wanted to for some reason.


Does this cause issues with HDCP2?


Yesterday, I released freqtop.

It is a linux tool that runs in the terminal and shows a live view of the frequencies that the CPU cores are scaled to.

Core frequencies in linux are dynamically set by a governor based on the load.


Sweden at one point, had marginal income tax rate EXCEEDING 100% for some people.

Look it up. It is very hard to believe, but true. That exceeds communism.

102% income tax rate, people... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomperipossa_in_Monismania


Yes, Sweden was a socialist country for awhile (1960-1994), it no longer is because the experiment failed.

They've been reversing their welfare programs and are rated highly on the economic freedom index.

Taxes are still high to pay for the welfare programs, but as they are reformed I'd assume the government will lower them.

Even so, America once had a 70% income tax, that didn't make us socialist, though it made us economically weak (thanks for the cuts Reagan, you saved us) .

> Between 1870 and 1950, Sweden had the highest per capita income growth in the world and became one of the richest countries, behind only Switzerland, the U.S., and Denmark.

> In the 1960s, Sweden started to redistribute wealth, which brought wealth creation to a halt.

> By the mid-1990s, the country had growing economic problems because it continued to redistribute wealth it wasn’t creating.

> In 1994, Sweden began implementing the following measures designed to reverse this trend - Reduce Regulation - Reduce Government Spending - Reform their Welfare Programs - Shrink their Government

tldr: socialism is like crack, you only need to try it once and it'll destroy your life/country.
