Going to be hot today.
This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.
I talked to so many people yesterday. It was tiring, but mostly positive. I even managed to refrain from telling the Petsmart cashier that she looked super bored with her job. I might have even made a human friend with a guy at the BMV.
I got a RISC-V board for my bday!
I’m curious! Wanna tell me what you’re gonna do with it?
I’m thinking about using it as a router, but I’m also going try helping out with risc-V desktop software development in general
I love how seemingly many autistic people share a common interest in electronics and FOSS. I appreciate your ambitions in contributing.
What kind of board is that even? Have you had any prior experiences with OpenWRT (which I guess you’re considering for using it as a router)? One day I’m going to try setting one up myself but life keeps getting in the way
It’s a VisionFive 2! It’s the cheapest one out there, and If I ever get a risc-V desktop when I get more money, I’ll just turn it into a router only.
I’m planning on runing debian on it, and using podman to run openwrt (only using CLI commands).
