As nice as an 8GB model is, after much experimentation with various SBCs since the original RPi arrived, I've painfully concluded that with a few very...

Thanks for the input. So short of going industrial grade, there isn't much of a better option....

[Paradigm Shifter]

I don't think I can do anything about the cache on the device.

I've had bad experiences with "random/cheap" microSD cards in the...

[Paradigm Shifter]

And didn't that have a multi-decade legal fight with Apple Corp? (Among many other issues...)

Not that I disagree with your point, but when...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Just for amusement, and if anyone is interested in etymology, I think the reason this is such a widely used saying is because it actually originates from...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Hm. Possible. I will check that I disabled write caching (I usually do) and that it actually is disabled (since one system is Windows, and Windows likes...

This is funny; I was playing around with Enlightenment in a VM last week. Love the terminal, found the rest of it quite slow (which was probably caused...

First, thanks for the video link. I skimmed through it, will watch in more detail later.

My comment was directly in response to the statement...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Ah, I see. With "new" I meant new purchase for end user, rather than new technology, etc. But your reading also works well. ...

Epic have never been very good at making character models that look like real people. They always look like steroid-abusing psychopaths, plasticine models,...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Forgive me if I'm reading this wrong, but basically this is agreeing with my subtle point about double standards?

And to be honest I've...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Aye, I agree. I know how I'd approach it, but then I am not a C-suite of a multinational corporation.

I've never been too fussed overall,...

It's been SOP with Intel for a long time that new CPU requires new motherboard. Well, not really requires, as demonstrated by people getting chips working...
