What Is BalenaHub? 4 years ago

I guess we all know it from "balena Etcher"; is it actually a "company to trust"?

    balenaHub makes life easier for everyone working with IoT,
    edge and physical computing. If you’re a hardware manufacturer,
    a software engineer, an entrepreneur with a new business idea,
    a fleet owner that already manages devices, or simply the owner
    of a Raspberry Pi looking for some apps to try, we’re working
    to help reduce friction in edge development and hardware.

WAT? Is it April 1st? I hope this is a joke, but I'm not sure, since I'm Austrian, and, well... I have some experience what our governments are up to...

UPDATE: Sorry, phew:

Since nobody asked yet; Why explicitly Intel NUC instead of general x64?

I can only guess that it's because of HW drivers?

Oh, yeah, this makes totally sense, I did not think about that. Thanks!

What's actually the point in those point releases?

Don't understand me wrong, I'm running Debian on all my servers, but on the desktop I'm in love wit the rolling release model.

Is it just to overcome the initial upgrade inertia?

I'm not sure an Octocat would give a better impression to those non-techie clients with very little humor.

I didn't know it came with a non-skull plate, but to answer your, erm, question, I think a skull on the desk is not really an option for an office which clients would visit.

I often thought about going with a NUC in the past but either the price tag was not convincing or the only performant option was housed in a skull case.
