Not only did I save up to see her in-person, but I also heavily researched her on social media, directly asked Adelaide Zoo to confirm her birthdate, curated a chronological playlist of her life and updated her Meerkats Wiki page. I even had her listed in the safety plan I referred to whenever my mental health was at its worst. Rest In Peace, old girl 🤍

I can’t believe it’s already been a year since Snowy passed away, I miss her so much every day! As far as I’m aware, she still doesn’t have an onsite memorial at Adelaide Zoo, despite her unique appearance and impact.
Thanks so, so much to the 431 people who have supported the petition so far! 🤍💚🔗https://www.change.org/p/memorialise-snowy-the-white-meerkat-at-adelaide-zoo

As far as I'm aware, there are currently no plans to erect a commemorative monument or plaque for Snowy, despite her unique appearance and profound impact on Adelaide Zoo. If you also think she deserves a tangible testament to her lasting legacy, please sign this petition:

I dedicate this special video to Snow White "Snowy" the Meerkat, who passed away on 31st October. As a meerkat enthusiast who spent years dreaming of meeting her in-person before finally being able to last year, the news of her death was heartbreaking. I'm forever grateful for the time I managed to spend with her, and to all the zoo staff and volunteers at for ensuring Snowy's life was as long and happy as possible. May she Rest In Peace 🤍

System76 Meerkat Linux mini PC gets a spec bump, still ships with a 2-year-old Intel processor
The System76 Meerkat is a mini PC that’s basically a rebranded Intel/Asus NUC that ships with the System76 logo, comes with a number of memory, storage, and wireless configuration options and offers customers a choice of two Linux-based operating systems Ubuntu or Pop!_OS.
Linux PC company System76 has been selling Meerkat mini PCs since 2015, and the company recently updated the lineup with new models featuring 13th-gen Intel Core processors based on “Raptor Lake” architecture. Prices for the new model start at $549.
The starting price is for a model with an Intel Core i3-1315U processor, 16GB of DDR4-3200 RAM, and a 250GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. But customers can pay more for up to a Core i7-1360P processor, 64GB of RAM, and up to 16TB of storage.
System76 offers a choice of “short” or “tall” models. The short versions has two M.2 slots: one for PCIe Gen 4 storage and another for PCIe Gen 3. Tall models also have a room for a 2.5 inch SATA SSD or hard drive.
The company also offers an option to “disable WiFi + Bluetooth,” but it’s worth noting that this doesn’t affect the price.
This year’s model is a modest spec bump over last year’s model, which came with 12th-gen Intel Core chips. But it still feels a little behind the times: Intel’s Raptor Lake chips first launched in early 2023 and the chip maker has launched two new generations of processors since then: Meteor Lake and Lunar Lake.
While Intel has highlighted the AI capabilities of those new chips, which are the company’s first to include neural processing units (NPU) for hardware-accelerated AI, the newer chips also bring CPU, graphics, and efficiency improvements that make it unusual to see a brand new mini PC in late 2024 that features a 13th-gen processor instead of one of the newer chips.
The mini PC’s other features include support for up to four displays (thanks to two HDMI 2.1 ports and two Thunderbolt 4 ports, a 2.5 GbE Ethernet port, support for WiFi 6E and Bluetooth, and three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and a headphone jack.
Short models measure 117 x 112 x 37mm (4.6″ x 4.4″ x 1.5″), while the tall model is 54mm (2.1″) high.

The first #MeerKAT+ antenna was today handed over in a festive ceremony in the Karoo region in South Africa. 🥳
This marks another important step towards the Square Kilometre Array Observatory (#SKAO), as the 14 antennas of the MeerKAT extension will be integrated into the SKAO in 2027.

Happy #World_Meerkat_Day! 😄 Back in late May, I was able to fulfill my 3-year-long dream to visit Snowy, the world's only #white_meerkat! Her pale complexion was caused by #vitiligo, the onset of which occurred when she was 2 years old. Apart from needing more sun protection and becoming less active in her old age, Snowy remains a healthy member and dominant of her group! 🤍
