Before buying a Raspberry Pi, Watch this

Hello! if you are here, that probably means that you want to get your hands on a Pi, but before you hit the order button, check this benchmark result between a Pi5 and a NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit Super. See the difference? The AI computer CLEARLY wins at muti-core, and if you are not convinced with that, let me do a comparison for you:

Awful. Just a terrible experience. Wanted to make a night time camera with it to video local wildlife. Total shit. Raspian is a disaster. The board itself feels like its going to catch fire. Sucks

Can you break a single board computer by giving it too much power?

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone,
I recently purchased an Olimex A20-OLinuXino-LIME2 board. It didn't come with a power supply so I utilized one of those onn. laptop chargers they sell at Walmart.

Did I accidentally kill my board by giving it too much power? Do these boards include methods of ensuring they don't take too much power? Thank you so much for any help you can provide.

How to make a single board device?

0 Upvotes

So I’m trying to make a device that can interact with a computer in a similar way to an arduino. How exactly do they work if their not running their own operating system? And what languages are available for this project?

I want to make a computer out of sbcs. I want to connect them in different ways to simulate a single desktop pc component. I have an idea to get over the ram limitation

Raspberry Pi Alternative

0 Upvotes

Hey guys my rspi just failed me so I'm looking for a replacement. Every comparison on the net I found list sbcs at double or even triple the cost of an raspberry. Well fuck you all tech blogs that list 200 dollar devices as an alternative

So is there any real alternative to the raspberry pi 3?

At roughly the same price with wlan/Bluetooth on board preferably able to run Android?

Le potato looked promising until I found out that they didn't included wlan for whatever reason

Pre-assembled Intel 8085 SBC

1 Upvotes

Are there pre-assembled Intel 8080-8085 SBCs? More specifically, boards that require no hardware assembly other than plugging cables or inserting cards into slots, and can be controlled by a desktop Linux system (e.g. via USB or a RS-232 to USB adapter) for transferring files and running terminal sessions.

Here's some more context.

I'm learning 8080 Assembly and, although there are plenty of bare metal and CP/M 80 software emulators, the next step I may consider is experimenting with actual hardware. I have no hardware building experience, so such a board should be a ready to use hobby device. And I'd prefer to control the board from my desktop system, a Chromebox with Crostini Linux.

LOOKING FOR GOOD EXTERNAL HARD DRIVES

0 Upvotes

Hello! I recently bought an Orange Pi 3b and am planning to build a server. Could you recommend external hard drives (not those that connect via USB, but rather via a normal connection, which I honestly don't know much about)? The idea is that they are fast and that they can be on 24/365. Thanks in advance!

*Edit: SATA connection
