@betelgeuse93 @itsfoss OFC the main benefit of a #Pi5 with 1GB isn't for #consumers but #industrial customers.

Also in many systems like #automation, 1GB is more than sufficient (Given that @OS1337 can run on 32 MB RAM in a VM) it's safe to assume the $5 in shave without MOQ is worth it for most buyers who want the extra compute power and I/O compared to a #Pi0W / #Pi0W2 or #Pi3B+ ...

Is it just me? Ever since Mike Masnick went all-in on Bluesky, I just have no desire whatsoever to read anything at (or from) Techdirt.

It's like, Bluesky is obviously in its "gateway drug" period, but you can already see the enshittification coming (and bits are here, with them welcoming fascism and silencing dissent), and Masnick still cheerleading for it being good and proper and wholesome and just what the 'net needs just fills me with rage.

He's supposed to have more sense than that.

Be careful! That's how it starts.

I switched from OS X to Pop!_OS, but that was just the beginning. Pretty soon, I'd made my way on to #arch. These days, I'm running a lot of #suckless tools, including #dwm, #dmenu, and #st—and I don't even *have* a display manager. Now, heaven help me, I'm even considering installing #gentoo or #void.
