When I talk to people about web quality, they always mention measures based on code #readability and #maintainability. Rarely or never do they mention #performance, #accessibility, or #userExperience.

Performance _is_ accessibility. I think there is so much opportunity for me and my colleagues to raise the bar at the #RaspberryPiFoundation to improve access to kids and educators around the world.

@sloanlance @rasmus91 @bagder @ThePSF OFC the comparison is oversimplified, but when you look at it from the surface, the #RaspberryPi #Pi400 is basically the modern interpretation of the concepts we saw with #ZXspectrum, #VIC20 and other #8bit systems.

  • Just with modern specs and interfaces...

And #Python makes it easy to "make stuff go brrr!" and the @RaspberryPi / @raspberry_pi / #RaspberryPiFoundation and their excellent guide which is free to download as PDF and included in the #Kits for Pi400 & #Pi500 makes it easy to do things and overcome any problems along the way, reducing frustration and increasing happyness for beginners with easy to follow step-by-step guides.

  • And #Python is at the hard of that!

@peter I watched it in real time and that’s not what happened. I’m still furious that #RaspberryPiFoundation used their might to bully someone who asked carefully whether they really considered “Our cop will be watching you, so don’t do anything bad” a good way to introduce the new hire, especially in the culture they were in.
And then Raspi doubled down multiple times, suggested that the person asking started a hate campaign and never apologized.
The problem with Trump is not the red hat.

OS Adventure - Target #OpenMind_OM1 with USB Speaker/Mic

- Ubuntu 24 - no audio devices recognized, Remote with TigerVNC or MacOS both fail

- Ubuntu 25 x86 - OM1 install fails

- Pi OS Trixie - audio, Google Cloud #ASR, Remote With TigerVNC all works

OM1 in #Docker over PiOS Trixie might work, but I hate configuring and maintaining Dockered systems. Going to leave OM1 to the “artificially intelligent” developers

#RaspberryPiFoundation still has my “best supported hardware” award.

@Raspberry_Pi @TobyRobertsPi You need to read this and figure out how you are going to regain people's trust and rebuild your #brand reputation, and that of the original charity #RaspberryPiFoundation #RaspberryPi

A Case Study on Raspberry Pi’s Incident on the Fediverse

A short case study covering what happened with Raspberry Pi on the Fediverse.

@jonty: Badly handling the #shitstorm after bad PR is nothing new for the #RaspberryPiFoundation. 🙈 Remember that Microsoft VSCode APT repo they introduced (as well as removed) silently? Back then they already showed that they neither understand nor care about #privacy and fueled the shitstorm that way: https://twitter.com/EbenUpton/status/1357058711873871872. 🤦‍♂️

That case even made it into the editorial of the German Raspberry Pi Geek magazine: https://www.raspberry-pi-geek.de/ausgaben/rpg/2021/08/editorial-07-08-2021/ (Granted, I'm not completely innocent of the latter. 😇)

“@protikdas @Raspberry_Pi Sorry: I can't understand why you think this was a controversial thing to do. We do things of this sort all the time without putting out a blog post about how to opt out.”

Good of the never-bootlickers at @Raspberry_Pi to send out a top exec to clear up... Wait it's our fault they were smarmy and dismissive? Voicing concerns was a concerted effort, planned on Discord, to punish them for posting pictures of hot dogs? I see, that seems logical

@lizupton this is embarrassing

Greetings fellow #Americans ,

It has come to our attention that the @Raspberry_Pi Foundation has been causing distress on social media and glorifying the police surveillance state. After thorough investigation, we have determined that this #organization is a threat to #NationalSecurity and must be dealt with immediately.

We have gathered evidence that suggests the #RaspberryPi Foundation is using their tiny, affordable computers to spy on innocent citizens and collect #sensitive information. They have even been known to promote their products as tools for #surveillance, which is a clear violation of privacy rights.

In light of these findings, we have decided to launch a full-scale #investigation into the Raspberry Pi Foundation. We will be #monitoring their social media accounts, conducting surveillance on their operations, and interrogating anyone associated with the organization.

We are confident that our efforts will bring the Raspberry Pi Foundation to justice and restore peace and security to our nation.

Sincerely,

The FBI :FBIverified:

P.S. Can someone please bring me a Raspberry Pi so I can see what all the fuss is about? I’ve been hearing great things about them.

BIG YIKES
