Is there an Ubuntu variant these days that works on 32-bit? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

MX Linux is a nice Debian based distro that still supports 32-bit. Or you could use just Debian.

hugovk.github.io/free-threaded-wheels/ tracks how many of the top 360 PyPI packages have free-threaded wheels.

Green packages (currently 3%) offer has free-threaded wheels

Uncoloured packages (82%) offer pure-Python wheels

Orange packages (16%) have no wheels ready for free-threading (yet!)

See also Quansight Labs' https://py-free-threading.github.io/tracking/ for a smaller yet fine-grained tracker that also includes build tools.

Recommendations on casual GB/GBA games? in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

I have spent a lot of time playing GB/GBA games and Advance Wars is among my favorites. I love the "hot potato" mode for playing with a friend with just one device.

Can You Use Raspberry Pi 5 as a Desktop Computer? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 7 points 5 months ago

I own two Raspberries 1, a Raspberry 4 8GB and a Raspberry 5 8GB. I wouldn't recommend the 4 as a full-fledged desktop replacement, but the 5 has been very smooth so far.

I'm currently using the latest Raspberry Pi OS Lite and installed KDE on top.

Cheap, but reliable SSDs? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 2 points 6 months ago

I was lucky then with the 4 A400 I'm still using. I also have 3 BX500 that have been very reliable.

Cheap, but reliable SSDs? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Kingston A400s and Crucial BXs have been very good as cheap SSDs in my experience.

Communication between Raspberry Pis on different networks in c/python@programming.dev
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 1 points 8 months ago

A VPN would be my first choice. ZeroTier works like a charm on the RPis. I've shared even SQLite databases over Samba over Zerotier among a bunch of RPis daily for a couple of years without a hitch.

I'm working on a distro recommendation flowchart/ list for newcomers and need your input please! (Post is not only this picture btw and is mainly text) in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

My own example. I still have an ancient netbook lying around. It runs on an Intel Atom N270, which is only 32bit / i386. It came with Windows XP and I quickly switched to Mint, when it was still supporting 32bit.

I think the last Ubuntu release supporting i386 was 18.04 (around 2018) and all other distros started to drop i386 support after that.

AFAIK Debian is the only major distro still fully supporting i386. And a Debian based distro that still supports i386 is MX Linux. My ancient and crappy netbook is running MX Linux right now.

My 'weird' example. I have a Raspberry 5! It's ARM and very new. It runs its own distro, Raspberry Pi OS (Debian based), and Ubuntu does also fully support it. Right now if you try some other distro, it probably won't even boot unless you start tinkering a lot with it.

So Debian is definitively a choice for very old hardware. And the odd ARM SoC has usually at least some custom Ubuntu build that runs with it.

Is there any way to run a Python GTK3 apps on Windows? [Solved] in c/python@programming.dev
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

PyQT / PySide are huge, but they have been very good in my experience coding cross platform desktop programs. macOS, Windows and Linux (even on ARM) are very well supported.

Litestar 2.0 Released in c/python@programming.dev
[โ€“] norambna@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago

I've been following this project for a while and it's great. They are just not great at promoting it.
