I found this fun video which show the potential of Steam Fex running on a basic ARM hardware.

Model used: https://www.arduino.cc/product-uno-q

That’s not an arduino. It’s a piece of shit cloud software enshitified Qualcomm abomination.

UNO Q’s hybrid design makes it the perfect dual-brain platform for your next innovation. It combines a Linux Debian-capable Qualcomm Dragonwing™ QRB2210 microprocessor (MPU) interconnected with a real-time STM32U585 microcontroller (MCU).

It's as complex as running it on an rpi

Yep, it is not even worth an article lol

I bet the MCU is doing exactly nothing having to do with it either 😂

I would be interested if this little CPU somehow helps Qualcomm processors transition to mainline Linux instead of android though.

"microprocessor"? I think we call that CPU

[–] infeeeee@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

More like an SOC, it also has GPU and DSP:

https://www.qualcomm.com/internet-of-things/products/q2-series/qrb2210

  • Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU (up to 2.0 GHz)
  • Adreno 702 GPU
  • Dual 13 MP Image Signal Processors (ISPs)
  • Always-on Qualcomm® Hexagon™ DSP –

Apologies, it's an even worse name then.

It's a pretty common way to refer to them in the embedded space

[–] hayvan@piefed.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

It's officially Arduino, but indeed has nothing to do with the spirit of Arduino we used to know.

And it still run Steam 😀
