I am performing a Scientific Experiment to see if I can set fire to a #RISCV CPU by building ALL THE THINGS on it AT THE SAME TIME. Gonna bung a #Jenkins and a #CPANtesters environment on it. If you are a software dev who wants to do portability testing email me and maybe I'll give you an account on it. People who I have drunk beer with get priority, of course. Or you could get your own here labs.scaleway.com/en/em-rv1/

Scaleway LabsElastic Metal RV1The world's first RISC-V servers available in the cloud. Taste the new open processor architecture now. Will you take the risk?

A couple of new toys arrived today:
- Milk-V Duo S (Dual #RISCV C906 cord and an Arm64 Cortex-A53). Can apparently run RTOS and Linux simultaneously. milkv.io/duo-s
- An Intel N100-based mini PC that I want to use as a VM test server (fosstodon.org/@sxa/11402669992) Supplied with Windows but do I (a) dual boot it (Disk is 512GiB) (b) Put Linux on a second drive (c) Decide if it's good first then buy another (or something similar)? fosstodon.org/@sxa/11402669992

Both are smaller than I expected!

As I told earlier here in a longer thread with @zygoon , Yuning Liang, founder of DeepComputing has donated their RISC-V board for Framework laptops to OpenPrinting on the last FOSDEM. Thanks a lot!!

Now we can test the printing stack on this platform, including making Snaps for RISC-V.

Printing works so far, by the way.

And here are my adventures of setting it up:
