alt Hacker NewsI haven't seen the "This is how you use it as a daily driver" video yet. Maybe it's lack of google-fu on my part?
If I can throw it on an inexpensive desktop, and the run Linux and Windows under it, and maybe do some Lazarus/Free pascal development, I'll be a happy camper.

It’s capable of this today. Be aware that VMs do have a noticeable performance impact, but on a powerful system they aren’t unusably slow.
Does this help? It‘s six years old though: https://youtu.be/4wKmpCrWSxI
It runs perfectly on refurbished Lenovo M910q tinies, with Kaby Lake Core i5-7500t or Core i7-7700t, 32GB Ram. But so does everything else.
Linux via their VirtualBox port works, usable with 32GB Ram. Didn't try Windows, though.
Thinking about it, the same should apply for most N150-based mini-pcs, because everything is intel inside. May have bad firmware/bios, though.
Allow AI to create you new embedded operating system features. Since Genode is an OS framework, let some agents simplify your daily grind.
The "this is how you use it as a daily driver" would be for the sub project called SculptOS, you can find details on that and how to set it up here: https://genode.org/download/sculpt
