If you surprised why it has a PowerPC CPU. It's actually a SoC.
From the manual:

AMCC PowerPC 405 32-bit RISC processor core operating up to 333MHz with 16KB D-and I-caches.

Designed specifically to address embedded applications, the PowerPC 405EP (PPC405EP), provides a high-performance, low-power solution that interfaces to a wide range of peripherals by incorporating on-chip power management features and lower power dissipation requirements.

Will they save all those Thinkpads?

libcamera:

A complex camera support library for Linux, Android, and ChromeOS

Cameras are complex devices that need heavy hardware image processing operations. Control of the processing is based on advanced algorithms that must run on a programmable processor. This has traditionally been implemented in a dedicated MCU in the camera, but in embedded devices algorithms have been moved to the main CPU to save cost. Blurring the boundary between camera devices and Linux often left the user with no other option than a vendor-specific closed-source solution.

To address this problem the Linux media community has very recently started collaboration with the industry to develop a camera stack that will be open-source-friendly while still protecting vendor core IP. libcamera was born out of that collaboration and will offer modern camera support to Linux-based systems, including traditional Linux distributions, ChromeOS and Android.

Ban open and royalty-free instruction set? WTF.

Next will be the Linux kernel?

Be very careful about the exit node. You may be involved with law enforcement. Your computer equipment may be confiscated.

Be aware. Some external USB drives, like WD Elements, have built-in USB controllers. So they don't have a SATA connector.

Dunno, the HMD's reboots aren't good.
From a hardware point of view, they feel good,
but the software sucks.

The S30 OS, before Nokia collapses, was much better.

Thanks, I didn't know that the Wikipedia Commons pictures of the day are NSFW.

Gentoo - patience.
But seriously. With the USE flags, compiler options, you can understand software more from a developer's point of view.
You can try to optimize software for your hardware.
Fully explore the configure options. With a binary package you have no control.

The researchers estimate that if the system is scaled up to the size of a small suitcase, it could produce about 4 to 6 liters of drinking water per hour and last several years before requiring replacement parts. At this scale and performance, the system could produce drinking water at a rate and price that is cheaper than tap water.

But can it be scaled up even more? Like cubic meters per hour?

Looks like the US is like 10 years behind the Europe.

But if I understand correctly those electronic shelf labels will be remote controlled. IoT?
