Best solution I've found is installing the v4.3 .debs from Debian bookworm. Only caveat is you need to do some of the dependencies manually as well.

The counterintuitive trick I've used for my 5900X is to increase the minimum fan speed up to around 60% or so. It makes the base volume very slightly higher, but avoids it constantly ramping up and down through the 50% zone which is what I found the most annoying/noticeable.

There are some real steals if you dig deep enough. Case in point the Xiaomi 4A GbE:

  * $30 (not missing a zero)
  * OpenWRT support
  * 128MB RAM
  * 3 gigabit ethernet ports
  * 802.11ac Wi-Fi
Sure it's not going to compare to a full Raspberry Pi (tiny flash, no USB, no video, no expandability), but for plain routing it's fantastic value.

The most efficient workflow I've found for pip so far is something along the lines of:

  pip-compile # resolve and pin the dependency tree
  grep '==' requirements-pinned.txt | xargs -n1 pip wheel  # build every wheel in parallel
  pip install *.whl  # install the pre-built wheels
It may not avoid all the slowness, but when nicely integrated into a build/CI system it can avoid suffering it more than once.

Made this for (and have not touched it since) my last job search.

Design-wise I'd like to dial back the animation and minimalism a bit, and bump the contrast. Also have been thinking about adding more written content like blog posts or technical whitepapers.
