Pre-orders for a new run of ANSI keyboard Pinebooks starts tomorrow.
Anyone have any experience with them? Worth it to tinker around with ARM architecture? Any good distros supported?

what does it even mean? you compile everything with the same compilers, regardless of architecture. unless you are coding some extreme low level crap, don't bother.

how good is emulation on this? should I look at rpi4 emulation as a similar performance metric?

You’re either shilling or a retard

Oh cool, cheap devices to tinker with.

Noticeably higher prices, enough to discourage me from buying them for fun only.

I have one, like it, build quality is ASS the screws on the shell eventually get loose and you have to hope the bad boy doesn't just pop open. Tightening the screws helps for a short while

I would order but I hate ANSI

Run by some random pole not related to pine64.
It also add ~100€ markup to Pinebook pro when compared to buying from the official site and paying VAT yourself.
>pine64eu.com: 360€
>pine64.com, shipped from china for 20USD: 281.68€ according to the Finnish Customs' official customs calculator

It's not an official store. Pretend it doesn't exist

It's run by Lukasz Erecinski, for kurwa's sake, anons. pine64.org
pine64.eu is the unofficial one. Yeah the markup is painful, I knew prices would be higher since it's a separate business to run but that's just much more.

>official store
ok I might be mentally disadvantaged
>While this store is completely autonomous and independent of the Pine Store and PINE64, I simultaneously see it as a natural extension of my activity within the framework of the community. I have been a part of the PINE64 project since its inception and have taken on the role of Community Manager in 2017. I held this role for 5 years, until the day PINE64 EU opened for business. I therefore choose to operate this store with community principles in mind – PINE64 EU donates to Manjaro, Mobian and postmarketOS based on PinePhone and PinePhone Pro sales. We also plan to support other projects down the road.
So, eh, I don't know. Kinda want to support a fellow kurwabro, but on the other hand I'm a cheap fuck who optimizes purchase decisions.

Oh shit dude, what the fuck are you doing?! Get a fucking StinkPad for 200€, upgrade it with the other 160€ and wipe the floor with this piece of shit.

You want to compete, user? Me the retard and (You) the blind?
Chase Diaz
Yeah I saw that other comment afterwards and wanted to delete mine. I pressed three times, it didn't work and then I said fuck it, let people think I'm a retard
Luis Young
Don't worry, we can be retarded together.

It's pretty anemic, I've stopped using mine at this point.
>Worth it to tinker around with ARM architecture?
If that's what you're looking for, knock yourself out.
>Any good distros supported?
Install Gentoo.

Oh wow, I can't wait to purchase a laptop with a 10-year old ARM chipset, 4GB of non-upgradeable RAM, no real software support and 1 month long warranty for 250 USD while totally NOT thinking how good of a used business machine I could have got for that money. But it's a deficit good, right? It's not available half the time after all. You better buy it while you gave a chance, goy.
James Robinson
what that?
