This $149 RISC-V Tablet Runs Ubuntu 24.04 - OMG! Ubuntu

DeepComputing has unveiled a new version of its DC-ROMA RISC-V tablet — and this one runs Ubuntu! The DC-ROMA RISC-V Pad II boasts a 10.1

The link makes it seem like crap hardware, and sure 4gb of ram is really crappy. But how does this compare with one of my kid’s Fire tablets? Does anyone have opinions on that?

    DEs need to embrace tiling functionality and transparent windows (eg. playing a YT video under your LibreOffice window). It’s the only proper way to use a tablet. Obviously KDE’s Windows-like taskbar is a nightmare for tablets but even Android’s “deck of window cards” is crappy for anything that you couldn’t just as well do on a smartphone.
