Ah, one of those new fangled modular computers…
2·7 months agoIs that FQDN resolving?
Yeah, I said 30+ as in 37 or so I’ve been using their products since I got my first PC, a dual fdd Olivetti PC1.
I have predicted a few years ago that the “PC”, ie x86 IBM PC compatible computers, will rift into different devices, some running locked Windows, some running other OS like Linux-based ones, BSD, etc that value freedom and openness. The issue is that it is Microsoft who designed and controls Secure Boot. And they will close it more and more. They are even extending it to ARM-based devices.
After 30+ years of Microshaft shenanigans, I just don’t trust them and never will.
Try WattOS (Debian based) or FunOS (Ubuntu based).
This might be of interest for you, and its free PDF. From 2019 but still actual.

Also Eclipse Theia, it has the same interface and functionality and it is compatible with most VSCode extensions (probably over 98% of them?).
Eclipse Theia if you already know VSCode.
It copied the interface and functionality and is compatible with most VSCode extensions. Available as an AppImage on Linux.
Windows guests also run fine on KVM, use the Virtio drivers from Fedora project.
Woke, then SMACK! back down to sleep.
There are several solutions but will be above the budget. Best solution is the Argon Eon case for the RPi 4. I’m waiting for a version for the RPi 5.
Can house the Pi and either 4x 2.5" drives or 2x 2.5" and 2x 3.5" drives, all SATA.
