    I installed Tiny Core Linux on an old ass netbook laptop on which even Windows 7 kinda lagged. Went CLI only, no DE and made the laptop thousand times more usable. I’ve basically repurposed that laptop as an external hard drive for things I don’t need backed up but good to have a backup of.

    Linux is between the requirements of a raspberry pi pico and a raspberry pi zero I would say

    Although some crazy person did get Linux running on an esp32 once

          BirdFS is a pretty efficient file system, in the sense that it retrieves items from an infinite disk that you didn’t even know you wanted. The read speed is several times a day, and the write speed I’m still currently waiting on a metric there

    I revived a friend’s old laptop by installing Linux on it, and I told her that using Linux entitled her to a small amount of “nerd creds”. Years later, she told me that it did end up eliciting mild approval from a woman who ended up being her partner for multiple years. The system works!

            I was under the impression that the main impediment to running Linux on a 286 was the lack of an MMU. I might be wrong about that, though.

        Linux doesn’t run on anything below a 386 because it requires a MMU.

        (Some people have made forks that can run on 286s etc., but those changes have never been part of the mainline kernel.)

          You can if you emulate a CPU that does have an MMU. Someone has actually done this to get Linux booting on an Intel 4004. Another one got Linux to boot on a Commodore 64.

      I’ve seen Linux kernels powering eletrical instalations control monitors. I’d risk we can say that if it runs on electric impulses, it can run Linux.

      When will EVs be jailbroken?

            You likely know this, but you really, really, really, really do not want stuff like your airbag controller to run a preemptive task switching operating system.
