I'm amazed by the speed which technology miniaturized active and passive electronics electronics.
My SBC is smaller than this 2.5" HDD! Amazing!!

My saga to find an #ARM #SBC that has #AES acceleration hits some roadbumps, because it seems all the newer ARM boards require a custom vendor OS with, usually, an ancient kernel. Sigh.

Big tech doesn’t create or do anything meaningful. They just buy the meaningful that already exists. Then they destroy it.
We don’t need AI in SBCs. That’s antithetic to the entire culture surrounding them. FFS.
Big tech needs to leave small tech alone. They’re vampires.

Another day, another Banana Pi single-board computer. This time it's the BPI-F5 with an Allwinner T527 8-core ARM Cortex-A55 processor, Mali-G57 MC1 graphics, a 2 TOPS NPU, a RISC-V NPU, and plenty of I/O features. https://linuxgizmos.com/banana-pi-bpi-f5-adopts-allwinner-t527-soc-in-credit-card-sized-sbc/#BPIF5#BananaPi#SBC#SingleBoardComputer
The pico2-ice is a single-board computer that looks like a Raspberry Pi Zero. But it combines an RP2350B microcontroller with a Lattice iCE40UP5K FPGA. It's available now for $50 and up. https://www.cnx-software.com/2025/08/19/pico2-ice-development-board-combines-raspberry-pi-rp2350b-with-lattice-ice40up5k-fpga/#FPGA#TinyVision#SBC
@Dendrobatus_Azureus is it usable? I tried with my raspberry pi 4 (8gb ram) but it was a bit slow while browsing
@stefano it works fine here on the Raspberry Pi 5
Maybe the difference is that this system runs on 64 bits {OS/ DDR4 memory}
With firefox running using 4 open tabs, Debian ARM uses just 2.08GB (1GB=1024MB) of RAM. It looks like I should just browse in ARM linux on the SBC

The Radxa Cubie A7A is an upcoming credit card-sized computer with an Allwinner A733 processor (2 x Cortex-A76, 6 x Cortex-A55, BCM-4-64 graphics, and a 3 TOPS NPU) and up to 16GB RAM. Pricing hasn't been announced yet. https://www.cnx-software.com/2025/07/02/radxa-cubie-a7a-powerful-allwinner-a733-sbc-cortex-a76-a55-ai-soc-16gb-ram/#Radxa#RadxaCubieA7A#SBC#AllwinnerA733
