[Thanks for coming along with me on December Days, where I natter on about things organized around a theme (sometimes very loosely), one a day, for 31 days. This year, we're taking a look back at some touchpoints along the way of my journey with computing and computing devices.]

  • CPU: Amlogic S922X Processor with Quad-core Cortex-A73 (@ up to 2.4Ghz) and Dual-core Cortex-A53 (@ up to 2Ghz), ARMv8-A architecture with Neon and Crypto extensions

  • Memory: 4 GB RAM

  • Graphics: Mali-G52 GPU with 6 Execution Engines @ 800Mhz, mostly unused (access to machine through HDMI is mostly debug terminal, but device itself is capable of 4k resolution at 60 Hz refresh rate

  • Sound: Stereo (maybe more) possible through HDMI or 3.5mm jack

  • Inputs/Peripherals: 4x USB 3.0 ports, 1x USB 2.0 On The Go port, Gigabit Ethernet, IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.0, 1x Debug serial console (UART), 1x Peripheral Expansion Header (40-pin, 2.54mm pitch)
  • Storage: 64 GB eMMC internal storage

  • OS: Home Assistant Core running on top of Alpine Linux


An ODROID N2+ with Home Assistant )

There you are. Thirty-one computing devices, spanning my career of technology. Not the only ones I've worked with or played games on, but ones that I have some stories (or convenient excuses for rants) associated with. I don't know how many, if any of them, sparked memories for you, but if you do have one, feel free to share it. Or if mine of this was interesting at all to you, then perhaps you can attempt to influence 2022's December Days with good suggestions about what kind of topics could be covered.

Congratulations to all of you for making it through this year, and I hope to see you again next December.
