I decided to try debian stable on my brand new gaming PC and it worked fine out of the box. Combine with steam flatpak for gaming and I have less issues than my friends who game on Arch.
I agree though that Fedora is probably a good general recommendation.
So yeah there is hardware available but expect raspberry pi 3 or lower levels of performance.
I've kept my US citizenship this whole time as I wanted to keep my options open to move to the US in the future. But the older I get and the more settled I am in Canada, revoking my citizenship seems like the best option.
CoreAVI is company that builds our own GPU drivers for safety critical systems. We focus on accelerating graphics and compute applications in planes, trains, and automobiles. We maintain our own Vulkan SC & OpenGL SC drivers, that used on vehicles that you’ve probably traveled on. We are looking for Software Solutions Engineer that are familiar with system/embedded level programming, or OpenGL/Vulkan, that are willing to be customer facing and work with our customers on site. We have offices in Waterloo Ontario, Tampa Florida, Ft. Worth Texas, and Eindhoven. We are flexible company that supports remote work as well (about 50% of our staff was remote pre-pandemic). I know the below job positing is for North America, but we are also open to engineers located in Europe who would like to work from Europe.

Edit: Never mind it is working now.
For graphics APIs we implement a subset of OpenGL or Vulkan listed under their safety critical standards. We are part of Khronos and worked with them to define the OpenGL SC 2 standard and are currently working on defining the Vulkan SC standard. The saftery critical version of the APIs are a reduce subset that eliminate anything that would be more difficult to implement in certifiable code.
As for our QA process, its really split into two distinct things. There is just normal QA side with all the run of the mill testing and verification, and then there is the actual certification team who is responsible for meeting all the DO-178 requirements as defined by our process. Like a lot of other companies who do cert work, we don't create all the artifacts from the get go. There are a lot of defense contracts where they want "certifiable" but don't want to pay for the actual evidence, so we won't go out of the way to make it, if no one is buying it. We do have a strict coding standard and code reviews to ensure that any code checked in will actual be able to be certified, but certification is way more work than just writing the code. Once we have a paying customer for cert we will go through and write all the test cases, fill out all the requirements, and make sure every i is dotted and t are crossed.
Does that answer all your questions?
