  • You can listen to FM radio with gqrx relatively easily, if you can navigate through hundreds of input boxes.

    sudo apt-get install gqrx
    

    Anything more complicated will require some coding knowledge, unless someone already created a library for that specific thing.

    There is also a ready-made package to listen to GPS signal, unfortunately it needs an external amplifier and a proper antenna, because RTL-SDR is not sensitive enough for GPS.






  • So if I’m developing a garage door opener using ESP32 RISC-V module, I’m not a RISC-V developer? The dev tools and the cross-compiler only come in x86_64 variant, they simply won’t work on RISC-V laptop. But at least they provide a Linux installer.

    The only use case I can think of is to build Debian packages on a target architecture without cross-compilation, because many packages do not support cross-compilation, but it’s more an issue of poor build scripts.










  • For example, don’t ever say you use Windows here lest a whole horde of people jump in to call you an idiot for not having switched to Linux

    Just copy Linux Mint onto an USB stick. No need to boot it, you hang it around your neck like a cross, and display it to raging pinguinoids to pacify them.

    I am using Debian, in case you were wondering.
