seems like the #raspberrypi is getting a huge grip of updates every week. glad it's so well supported. wish it was more powerful to do some more heavy lifting. #linux #homelab

@bryan For the price of those things, these days of chip shortage, I’d expect a direct support line if I were using those in any kind of enterprise capacity. Love my pi devices but those prices need to go way back down before I become a 0-day buyer again.
@Unabart yeah I'm over them. I bought this raspberrypi 5 as a pre-order when it was announced. there is no way I'd buy one now. way too expensive. I'd focus on some other random hardware I find on Aliexpress or just buy NUC sized PC.
@bryan I bought the pi 5 16gb when they announed it. Have an 8gb also. And a variety of 3s, 4s and 0s. Haven’t setup my nerd workbench since moving as I am waiting to get work to get my storage locker for all the work stuff I’m currently storing in my bedroom. Then? Who knows. Definitely a Bird Pi for my backyard.
@Unabart I have a 8GB pi5 and a 4GB pi4. Then one Zero 2 W (should be the newish one that is also 64bit). The Zero was supposed to be an exit node for VPN in Korea next trip I make to visit in-laws (but I forgot it). I need a way to watch all the sports without blackouts. next trip
@bryan I travel with an ONN android tv box I got at walmart for 20$ last trip to ussa. Loaded it with Mullvad, Stremio, SmartTube and the RB Sports app. Best solution for live sports and movies/tv streams.
@Unabart primarily I want to watch MLB and they seem to be very good with maps of VPN providers. I've only been able to bypass with VPN running through residential homes.
@bryan Gotta sail the seas and have access to EVERYTHING without any vpn blocks, which are in place to spy on you and build your marketing profile. Fuck em! They made me do it!
