Thinking about making something with a #RaspberryPi? Don't. Instead, check out the ROCKPro64 from @PINE64 - you get everything a raspi provides, along with a PCIe 4x slot, up to 128GB of onboard storage, stereo CSI ports, USB-C host port... along with all the same GPIO, USB, and 1G Ethernet that you can get from a raspi.
Best part? You can get it right now. It's actually in stock, no need to pay triple to some scalping reseller or constantly hit refresh on a store's page to see if they've restocked it. Just grab it and start building.

Wherein RasPi blows up their reputation:
#HelloFresh is anti-union and all their recipes are on their website. The choice is clear.
> the boggart of Hackensall Hall lived in the shape of a horse who was a willing worker as long as he was catered to. The people even built him a fire to lie by on cold nights, and if he did not get it he complained loudly, or refused to work < and I think that's beautiful #FolkloreThursday

platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Make something from a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.
I'm going to keep saying this until I'm metaphorically blue in the face: the best thing you can do to secure your accounts online is to use a password manager. A #blockchain provides absolutely no benefit over using different, strong passwords for all your accounts and using a password manager like #KeePass to keep them all in an encrypted file that you - and ONLY you - control.
Use 2FA for your most important accounts, but passwords still provide account security at the most fundamental level.
It's #artvsartist2022 – here's what I've been doing!
I design a lot of stuff that doesn't get posted. Much of it is document layout, most of which is artistic but not especially interesting to look at. Here are some samples of my more visually interesting stuff from the last year, arranged in the #artvsartist format for #artvsartist2022 :
Image, fantasy creatures, firearm, blood
Finished working on a #drawing started last week, half elf gunslinger and kitsune sorceress escape from an irate cave giant. They really riled it up!
Okay, I gotta know who in my ALttPR poll voted "every day" because that's been me lately. I set up a run that's kinda guaranteed to be between one and two hours, and that's been my early exercise to get my brain moving.
Also, @orrery and I have been playing occasional multiworld games. Good times!
Had some time to add new features to #DOStodon, the Mastodon client for MS-DOS:
- implemented connection reuse
- you can now reply to toots by pressing R
- you can now clear the toot-composer by pressing DEL
- improved display of boosted toots
- added sounds
"Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,” believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”
