A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Considering that it's basic x86 Linux+Chrome it could be supported indefinitely without any issues. Especially just chrome, once unsupported it won't even receive updates to the browser and that's unacceptable

How often do you see a worthwhile firmware update to something older than two years?

Besides, running Linux isn’t a blocker for firmware updates if the vendor supports it.
