Fuck SJWpi

Works well enough for me.

I'm buying a beaglebone black. Am I meme ing myself?

This thread again..

I like my openvpn server.

>that sociopathic creep who tries to manipulate people

I like my anime-episode-playing alarm clock

Yes. These things are pretty much worthless.
Be a big boy and buy an actual computer.

...

Retropie
Rasplex

No regrets, I bought them knowing what I was going to do with them, and plan on buying another.

Made mine to an emulator box, its superb. Fuck off op

pi i find to be essential

?

>that retard who has no use for one but bought one anyways

There's literally nothing more normalfag than using a retropi for emulation. Not only is it terribly suited for gaming, it's a literal meme. A Wii is cheaper, easier to set up, and performs better.

>bringing politics onto a technology board

why did pol get interest in Sup Forums?

Jokes on you I don't use retropie, I use the superior Lakka

I fell for it. I needed a powerful embedded computer for an engineering undergrad project and a Pi was easily available compared to any of the other options. I'm in Canada so having to ship a Beagleboard computer would be over $20.

Rpi is the master race. Get yer free Mathematica.

Remember kids: consider other boards before falling to the pi meme.
>but muh software
A raspberry pi running raspbian is just like another PC running Debian GNU/Linux. Most tutorials that work with debian will work with the pie. Neither the hardware nor the software are special, it's a generic ARM PC running gahnoo plus loonix (or -at your choice- some other OS like BSD or RISCOS)
>but muh community
see the previous point.
>but muh GPIO specific software
every other boards has a GPIO interface. Controlling it might require other commands or an other character device in /dev but if you cannot fix such problem then you shouldn't buy even a pi to begin with.

Kodi run well on that shit

I mean openelec

What happened that made RPi SJW?

Yeah, it does. I prefer LibreElec due to it staying more up to date.

...

Fucking this, how gnu are you? We have a thread about this every other day.

Fucking reddit

Maybe we wouldn't do it if tech companies weren't so concerned with politics.

Every tech company wants to be the one hiring the most women/trannies/faggots and be oh so progressive.

>These things are pretty much worthless.

I need the beaglebone to cheaply flash libreboot on my thinkpads though.

Works well enough as a shitty server that I can fuck around on without any worries.

I'd literally never hear or know about this if it weren't for people like you, this isn't an issue outside of twitter and nobody gives a single shit

...

I use one for dicking around with GPIO and another for external SSH access. You're only failing if you bought one and did nothing with it.

Lmao this thing can't play anime for shit
