"But our BoD has seen the full writeup on Nintendo (and Valve) and they are fully supportive on either if opportunity arises as am I."

Oh please God no, not Valve. MS has changed pretty dramatically since the Gates/Ballmer days, but Valve is way too valuable to computer gaming to be owned by a company like MS. Luckily Valve is privately owned, and even if they were public, their valuation would/should be pretty insane. So I think anyone buying Valve is unlikely.
This looked pretty cool until I found a price: ~$100.
Lots of cool features, and it's a beagleboard, so there will be actual support/documentation/source. But I'm not sure $100 is "affordable" for the SoC you get and the small 2GB of RAM.
The optimizations that went into this must be pretty impressive for it to run as well as it does on my Framework laptop (11th gen, no dGPU). I did have to run it in Chrome since Firefox gets the "unsupported browser" error[0]. Glad I tried it out since typically "I made a voxel engine" wouldn't catch my attention. ;)

Not to be "that guy", but could you please put the language in the title when posting stuff like this? We all have our language preferences, and I'd rather not have to go digging just to figure out if a project is relevant to me.
As a counterpoint, I experienced the exact opposite. I got tired of deb-based distros leaving me in package limbo if something went wrong. I'm sure there's an easy fix, or maybe the entire problem is fixed now, but I've been a very happy user of opensuse (and just suse before that) for a long time - well over 15 years now. I love their huge range of optional software repos. I can have a nice stable base system with only certain software bleeding edge.
Very cool! I was excited & shared this with everyone at my small SaaS company... then I saw your pricing. :( It's literally an order of magnitude out of our price range!
> If you want up-to-date software from your package manager, use a rolling release distro. Otherwise the best you can do is something like a base setup and then side-load the software you want. This problem has been identified to the point where there are several brew-like systems (and things like snap as well), but no clear winner yet.
I use openSuSE Leap with a bunch of OBS (build service) repos added. I get a nice stable base OS with updated packages when I want them. And it runs KDE/Plasma nicely, too, and not as an afterthought or something like other distros.
On https://www.pingcap.com/docs/sql/mysql-compatibility/ it mentions "FOREIGN KEY constraints" under unsupported features. Is that right? Isn't that a rather big problem for an OLTP DB? Or am I missing something?
