Rpi is not always such a gold standard either.. is their boot chain still a mess? That was one of the problems with zero 2w

there is radxa zero 3w, which on paper is nice looking board. bit dated maybe but still lot fresher than pi zero 2w. the rockchip soc should have decent mainline support and it has been around for a while

I'd recommend everyone to familiarize how these forests were formed in the first place. They are not some natural thing, nor any ecologic sanctuaries.

We have been working on interplanetary (or rather non-earth centric) time standards already for a while. See e.g. Barycentric Coordinate Time, Coordinated Lunar Time, Areocentric Coordinate Time, and related publications.

xbox 360 would have been better example, xenos with its unified shaders was in some ways more advanced than its contemporary desktop gpus at launch.

> I am happy that HEIC from Apple did not take off (as it was proprietary, protected by patents).

Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, and Fujifilm cameras all shoot HEIF these days.
