>>4659 With finally a decent amount of RAM it would defiantly make a nice platform for a small server. Was thinking on making a portable public NAS attached to a wifi router on a battery to take around to friend's houses and share music and movies.
>>4659 >still using broadcom proprietary garbage
>using usb-c meme for power rather than an actual power connector
probably couldn't expect any better from raspberry piss foundation
>>4662 tbh at this point there are a lot of raspberry pi clones which are better than the original raspberry pi, but better. They seem to be doubling down on the casual crowd with selling a desktop kit.
>>4663 They were supposed to be for the casuals in the beginning, but then their original plan sort of failed to get new people into programming. This is the closest they've gotten to making a really cheap fully featured computer, and its very honorable of them to go after their initial mission instead of just chasing money.
>>4884 The Arduino seems to overlap with the programming objective, albeit targets the microcontroller market, whereas the RPi targets systems level environment. Both the Arduino and RPi seem to be targeting the hobbyist DIY IoT market, which is a good thing. One can re-purpose the hardware if needed for something else by uploading a new image to the device, something that is not easily done with proprietary (NDA), single-purpose appliances/IoT.
One of the main selling points of the Arduino/RPi, is not that they are best in class for price/performance ratio, but for their popularity and code/project file libraries.
