Chalceus

Chalceus is a genus of characins from South America, where found in a wide range of freshwater habitats in the Orinoco and Amazon Basins, as well as in the Guianas.[1][2] They typically reach a length of 15–25 cm (6–10 in), but are up to about 30 cm (12 in), have an elongated shape, relatively large scales and red fins (at least tail).[2] They feed on invertebrates (insect and alike), small fish and plant material.[2]

  • Chalceus spilogyros Zanata & Toledo-Piza, 2004
gollark: <@218268648609939456> The RPi4 is... basically that, though not a Pine product.
gollark: The Pi 4 has 4 A72 cores and the RP64 has 2 A72 ones plus 4 A53 ones, but they're clocked higher. I don't know which of those is actually *better*, since I haven't checked benchmarks.
gollark: There's also Pine's own RockPro64, which I think is ~~about as fast~~ somewhat faster as the Pi4 CPU-wise, and the ODROID N2, which is probably one of the most powerful reasonably cheap ARM SBCs about.
gollark: The RPi4 has a better CPU and GPU than the 3, no idea if it can run that.
gollark: <@140164484827185152> On the smart TV thing, I've heard that they're sold for less than "dumb" ones because the manufacturers make money off selling data from them.
