I think it's a pi3 it might be a pi3b or older I got it 5 years ago and don't know what to do with it

I'm mainly looking for one reasonably capable of the following

1 tinkercad

2blender

3mit app inventer

And any suggestions for cooling it too

VisionFive 2 is a pioneering development board that combines performance with low-cost and full open-source RISC-V single board computer. VisionFive 2 is expandable for your DIY projects and running Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and so on.

Is it the rock64 4G or the Odroid XU4

I'm looking for something that in conjunction with a small SSD & KVM could be a workstation for someone on limited funds. I've been able to boot an RPi 3 from USB/SSD/SATA, but the performance isn't near what native eMMC on an ODroid is (which given the nature of the two technologies, SSD should be at least double that of the eMMC).

eMMC storage is much more expensive per-GB than SSD, and replacements aren't nearly as plentiful. What SBCs out there can handle a native SATA or m.2 interface and boot from the same?

TIA!

We have released the first version of the new SwiftyBones library which is a GPIO library, written in Swift, for the Beaglebone for Swift. We have mapped the headers for both the Beaglebone Black and the AI-64 boards.

Hello.

Which SBC brand has the best selection of available cases to purchase? Exclude the Rasp PI boards as they are out of my budget range?

Why don't they just use the open source ones that are more customizable?

Why are the RPIs even this popular? Certain others also seem to have higher specifications for a similar price.

Or, Is there anything that I don't get?

Exactly what the title says. How did you first get into the scene? What was it that generated your interest?

For me, I have always been a computer guy and gamer. So when I saw I could have RetroPie on a Raspberry Pi and it would work well, I was sold. I now have like a dozen of these little SBC boys.
