16th of July

Marks Rpi Cluster cluster continues to run 24/7. Last week Einstein@home ran out of BRP4 work so the cluster went quiet. I had to resume Asteroids@home work on the eight Pis that have the project. Work resumed flowing again on Friday and the cluster is playing catch up.

We're still waiting on Raspberry Pi OS updates to match Debian 12 (Bookworm). I only had a couple of quirks when updating from Debian 11 to 12 on my x86_x64 machines. One was with ntp not being available. The default is systemd timesyncd or one can install chrony or ntpsec. The other was around the GPU drivers being a mix of both non-free and contrib, but that won't effect the Raspberry Pis.
