There are still people in my YouTube comments saying it's impossible to buy a Raspberry Pi 5 for under $100. DigiKey rn: image
The LattePanda Mu brings something unique to the SBC/SoM market—x86. Why it matters:
There's a new SBC cluster king: The Turing RK1 is 2x faster than Pi 5, 5x faster than Pi 4, and I test four of them in a new 10" mini rack:
As free money dries up and profits slow, companies slash headcount almost as fast as #opensource community trust. My thoughts on IBM's HashiCorp buyout:
Totality! #SolarEclipse2024 #TotalSolarEclipse More to come...
Water cooling the #RaspberryPi 5 is... definitely a thing. Very expensive ($200 for the whole kit), very overkill (42°C at 2.8 GHz overclock after 10 min), but I do like that it exists, even if *very* few people would ever need it. A short review:

It's my stomaversary! One year ago today I had my ostomy revision. Thanks especially to the UOAA for supporting me and thousands of other patients every year! (And to all the excellent WOCNs, nurses, GI docs, and surgeons who help patients like me!)

WATCH OUT! October 4th, almost everyone in the US will be part of the nationwide emergency alert test! 🚨 I asked my Dad about how EAS works, and he even let me fire off a weekly test in the studio :)

The Raspberry Pi 5 is 2.5x faster than the Pi 4 (sometimes more!), and I have the FULL rundown — let me walk you through it in this thread. #RaspberryPi #Pi5 image
