Why not both?

idk just seems like $25 is a good price for a fun game you know?

That’s my doing. I already had a pipeline of contacts for manufacturing GameBoy games at various levels of quality and cost. Being involved from the beginning, I was able to influence development to ensure we could produce the lowest cost product that met the quality levels needed to blow up everyone’s collective minds.

Do you earn more than $13,000 on the side?


It is clearly a joke.


I had bleeding for a over a year and every time there was a good explanation. After all the news about cancer I pushed for a colonoscopy at 41.

36 polyps were found. Some of elevated risk. So now I get yearly screening. But by the sounds of the type of polyps I had, if I had waited until the screening age I would have had high chances of cancer.


Ideal for an ARM server


I expect National to get back in next election.


... possibly for the same reason Trump got back in: No effective opposition.



Typical colonists. Trying to one up the homeland on prudishness. Australia is making similar "save the children" noises.


Luke Smith was too early on this.


Thank you for the great article!


What is it like using a Spark as a workstation?


Just like any other Ubuntu machine, really. Just lots (128GB) of RAM and relatively lots of cores (10 efficiency, 10 performance). It's not screaming fast, but it's absolutely fast enough for anything I need to do and it's got insanely fast networking options if I need them.

I like it, and the local AI options make it fun enough, too.

Apart from a few hassles. No pre-packaged Discord or Slack or Chromium or Spotify are the only things I've run into really.


Chromium has been pre-packaged for ARM in Ubuntu for more than a decade now. Did they throw it away with Snaps?


I’m developing on an Nvidia Orin which requires Ubuntu 22.04. Snaps are broken on this platform. I used an alternative ppa that provided a chromium.deb.


I use a DGX spark, with Cosmic as my DE, and it's super awesome.

This is a bit of a franekin-distro, as it's ubuntu + nvdia packgages + system 76 packages, but it works pretty well.

I've been using Flatpack chromium, which is ok for most things. It performs a bit better than Firefox does. Having access to official Chrome will be nice though, as it should come with Widevine support. Chromium doesn't support DRM, so some things like Netflix don't work.
