Also no careers link on your website?

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Would disabling “Intel Turbo Boost Technology” be advised to avoid this?

If it never uses turbo, it should not suffer the transitions?
