Tried my new VPN gateway on a Raspberry Pi and booted BlackArch live to explore some tools. Sadly, the distro feels abandoned: outdated packages, broken apps, no copy/paste in terminals, and a prehistoric Firefox. A shame, because it still boots under 500MB RAM 😕

AI is killing your Raspberry Pi budget 🧵
The Pi 500+ just jumped $150. A new 3GB Pi 4 exists now, and the reason why tells you everything about where RAM prices are heading.

Okay, so the problem with my delta is apparently the OrangePi Zero 3 somehow getting overloaded doing delta kinematics math that the 100mhz printer board could do fine if I put Marlin on it.
It is strangely only happening with specific directions of "diagonal" movement. I know as a delta, all directions (except straight line Z axis moves) should be pretty much the same in terms of kinematics/processor load, which is part of why this was confounding me for like a full week.
Specifically, it'll print a cube aligned with the Cartesian coordinate axes perfectly, but if I rotate it more than about 15 degrees it either loses its ability to hold the effector's Z position, or it starts drawing curvy lines while maintining Z.
It has similar problems if i try to print a cylinder, but much less pronounced.
With the current prices of Rasberry Pis, I'm really hoping I can get my hands on a used 4B since my single surviving full size RPi (i have a drawer full of zeros, but just the one RPi 5) which is currently doing triple duty as a print server, file server, and home automation host.

"'We want to make sure you don’t pay for more memory than you need': Raspberry Pi reveals further price rises — and the RAM shortage is once again to blame"
"Raspberry Pi has increased prices by around $11 to $150, but there's a new mid-spec 3GB model to strike a better balance."
Turn a Raspberry Pi CM5 into a TV stick with this carrier board
Many modern TVs ships with software that will let you stream video from Netflix, YouTube, and other services. And if you’re looking for something a little different, there’s no shortage of cheap media streaming devices running Amazon, Google, or Apple software.
But if you want something a little more versatile, you may want to consider plugging a full-fledged computer into your TV. Enter the […]
