Got a new computer today with Alpine Linux pre-installed

Joachim Wiberg

@ncopa whato do you mean, pre-installed?! That black colour with a clear red accent … it couldn’t be …?!

@troglobit I asked Loongson for a dev board and they sent me a desktop :)

@ncopa @troglobit Be careful, better connect it to Internet via firewall with both inbound and outbound connection monitoring. Are you familiar with Trojan horse…? ;)

@jakub @ncopa i dont see how it is electrically possible. but these do use UEFI, so maybe there is a boot kit.

@jakub Never heard of. is it a pony? 🐴

@ncopa oooh, nice! Huge props to Loongson 😎👍
