Here’s a few that I know of. What other things are commonly running Linux that most people may but be aware of?

  • Ingenuity (helicopter drone on Mars)
  • Smart TVs and streaming devices (Samsung’s TizenOS and Roku devices)
  • Smart appliances (Samsung’s smart refrigerator)
  • Digital signs and billboards
  • My car stereo (Sony XAV-AX6000)
  • The Large Hadron Collider
  • FAA Air traffic control and radar systems
  • Self driving cars

      But, the software they ship is completely closed source and displaying anything on the screen requires hacking the binary (each software release). They have have been the opposite of helpful to open source for the last few years and have stooped to a cloud company trying to collect your data.

        What is the best supported Linux e-ink device that’s decent? I really want the PineNote, but it seems like its hard to find in stock and its pretty damn expensive. At this point, I’d consider building my own with off the shelf parts.

        I was referring specifically to Remarkable-brand devices… but Kobos are nice too, with that company also being indifferent to aftermarket hacks.

          Ah, “Remarkable” is a brand, never heard of them and never would have guessed as the “R” is uppercase at the start of a sentence

            Oh, good point. If I was being brand-proper I’d spell it “reMarkable”… but, lol, not doing that.
