EndBOX prototypes are compact, Raspberry Pi-powered computers with small displays and a netBSD-based operating system that boots directly to an EndBASIC shell so the first thing you see is a command line programming language. https://www.endbasic.dev/2025/06/unveiling-the-endbox.html #EndBOX #RaspberryPi #RetroComputer #EndBASIC

Unveiling the EndBOX - EndBASIC

Remember when turning a computer on meant instantly jumping into code? No bloat, no distractions—just you and a prompt? That’s the experience I’ve been working to bring back with the EndBOX: a small, resilient, nostalgia-packed, all-screen computer that boots straight into the retro-inspired EndBASIC environment you already know. And today, six months after its inception, I’m excited to formally show you the first working prototypes—though they are still rough and need refinement. Let’s dive into the goals for the EndBOX and what it could become with your help.

I've been struggling to understand why something was very slow on my Raspberry Pi.

I have a full blog post in the works about it, but I wanted to document how a simple tools like htop helped me rule out potential bottlenecks.

If you discovered other tools that made your admin life easier, please let me know!

TIL that htop can display more useful metrics

A program on my Raspberry Pi was reading data on disk, performing operations, and writing the result on disk. It did so at an unusually slow speed. The problem could either be that the CPU was too underpowered to perform the operations it needed or the disk was too slow during read, write, or both.I asked colleagues for opinions, and one of them mentioned that htop could orient me in the right direction.
