Would it be wrong to assume that we're dealing with an Apollo-style issue here (we "no longer have the technology to do it efficiently")? I'm certainly not an expert on nuclear power, but it is a little odd how the average nuclear reactor in the US is 42 years old [1].

It's just the U.S. China, France, and Japan have all successfully built nuclear at scale. I won't be surprised if developing nations in Africa start lapping the U.S. on nuclear power in the next few decades. They certainly have enough Uranium to do so.

Why would they take enormous risks on execution -- huge cost overruns and delays are par for the course with nuclear -- when solar + battery is so much cheaper and quicker?

(Note: This device is still available for sale. I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned here before)

I don't see this happening any time soon, but it would be really nice to see an 11.6 inch Framework intended for the education market. The new N series "Intel Processor" (aka Celeron/Pentium) CPUs are actually quite powerful considering they have a 6 watt TDP. The only problem would be the price.

I have a feeling that this isn't going to be available on the Series S (or if it is, it'll be like CP2077 on the original PS4/XB1). Oh well.

I don't think there's been any official communication from MS, but it seems well-established at this point that Xbox games are required to release both on Series X and S, and with feature parity - except for graphics modes.

its specifically said series s|x at the end of hte video

Yes, but I said "(or if it is, it'll be like CP2077 on the original PS4/XB1)". I simply can't see the game running very well on 10GB of RAM. Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but that's just what I think.

It would be really cool if Apple made an eMate 300-like device again (a relatively cheap educational laptop). Sure, the iPad is a thing, but still.

I hate to say it, but the Pi is probably the only good option for a cheap (well, MSRP) ARM SBC with okayish software support. A lot of these no-name companies that produce ARM SBCs give them basically zero software support (save for maybe a buggy build of Debian or something) and expect the community do all the work. Have you checked out any x86 SBCs? The Rock Pi X is like $60 USD.

Looks like Rock Pi X has also been a victim of the chip/parts shortage: https://wiki.radxa.com/RockpiX

I've been thinking about wetting my feet with homelabbing a k8s cluster with used OptiPlex workstations. I wonder if Pi's will actually come back in stock or if some other SBC will eventually rise up and start eating away at the Pi's market share.

Yeah, but doesn't the AMD card have things like ECC memory? Doesn't really justify it being so expensive though.

"It's important to..." "Ultimately..."

I can't think of any more right now. Just thought it was weird how often it says those things.

Someone should feed it the Toastmasters curriculum (minus the cultiness)

"In conclusion..." is a common give away of ChatGPT.

I wonder if it would be possible to make a small power bank that would charge a device at a speed close to that. I don't think it would be very safe, but in my mind it would be more like an emergency thing (like a little "jerry can").
