Totally! How dare OP post some visual data without having detailed plans about how to solution a company's various business issues. Super lazy.

Youtube on the RPI5 drops frames and is stuttery. If that's fine for you, great. But I'd argue it's not what people consider a good viewing experience. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBQosbjl9Jw&t=278s and https://youtu.be/nBtOEmUqASQ?si=VXFGVBid5wCrhu-u&t=797 if you'd like more info.
The accessories I mentioned for the RPI5 are the bare essentials just to get the thing to power up, boot to a web browser, and connect to a monitor to try to play YouTube, which is the foundation of your original comment. Please show me where a $120 used laptop or desktop tower needs additional hardware purchases to boot and plug in an HDMI cable.
You're picking the wrong fight with the wrong guy, friend. I'm a huge RPI advocate and I think they are great tools for specific use cases. I simply want to point out that if folks are considering it in the hopes that it's a small and cheap way to watch YouTube, they're gonna have a bad time.
Yep. First of all, the person who said an RPI5 can show YouTube HD just fine is lying. It's still stuttery and drops frames (better than the RPI4b, but still not great). Second, you'll end up dropping well north of $100 for the RPI5, active cooler, case, memory card (not even mentioning an m2 hat), power supply, and cable / adapter to feed standard HDMI.
You can find some really solid used laptops and towers in that price range, not to mention the n100 NUC. And they'll all stream YouTube HD much better, as well as provide a much smoother desktop experience overall.
Don't get me wrong, I love me a RPI, I run a couple myself. They're just not great daily drivers, especially if you want to stream HD content.
Dude saw the project of his life absolutely destroyed by Reddit. I can understand he just wants to move to the next chapter of his life.
Yeah, no. That doesn't hold water when you're actively accepting payments for an app on a new platform but not maintaining it for long periods of time.
He didn't move on with his life. He ported sync to lemmy, dramatically increased the pricing model, and now seems to go AWOL for extended periods of time often resulting in broken functionality.
Hyundai and GM / Chevy are the two biggest examples of automakers producing affordable EVs with traditional buttons and knobs. Audi, BMW, and Porsche are all moving back in that direction, but generally those aren't in the affordable category you mentioned.
Recent articles suggest many automakers swinging back towards the physical control side of the spectrum. It's a very good thing, touchscreens for basic auto controls was a terrible idea.
everything controlled by touchscreens and collecting data that the car companies sell off to the highest bidder
This has nothing to do with the engine type. This is a (valid) concern about new cars. But citing it as a reason to avoid EVs is misplaced.
If enough CEOs were eliminated for the same reason, the rest might start remembering they have a duty to society.
No. They'll hire private security and reduce their public exposure. Ironically, this will end up costing the company more and potentially increasing prices as a result.
The last thing they'll do is suddenly become introspective and sympathetic.
Yeah but once it gets posted to an .ee, it becomes fake. You'd know that if all of the senior tech workers in your brain hadn't already left for high paying Chinese jobs.
Nope. Somehow that scumbag coward piece of shit wins again.
It boggles the mind.
It's really simple. He institutionalizes hate, and they love him for it. That, and the racism.
Hopefully it's infinity. It's Elon Musk we're talking about. These are 100% going to kill people (pedestrians, other drivers, riders) and animals.

Shit, I'd take something even simpler, even a 1 year moratorium after a layoff.
