Reaction

Home Page was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival. Roger Ebert named the movie his pick of the festival[1] and the movie was named one of the best documentaries of the year by the Chicago Sun-Times.

gollark: I consider it "before" the Pi 3, and not real.
gollark: It also seems to be using a few % of the CPU at all times (or at least at all times when I have SSH to it going, which... uses Tailscale...), presumably since the Pi has no crypto acceleration due to bee.
gollark: Since it has things like a HTTP client, and userspace Wireguard-ing.
gollark: For all that tailscale fairly good it is probably not ideal on *really* resource-constrained systems.
gollark: (it does not run any software except tailscale and sshd)
