PBCrunch posted:So is this the reason behind the absolutely piss-poor availability of the Pi Zero? Almost three months after launch they are still almost impossible to find. They sold them all, then up until middle of January were making new Zeros and then switched to making rpi3s. evol262 posted:They don't need to compile anything. They just need to update their repos to point at 64 bit (it's all already built) and rebuild the image. virt-install can probably do this in 25 minutes. 37th Chamber posted:Okay dumb question.... where are the antennas? There isn't even the cheaper on-pcb one, so I assume we'll have to buy a header/antenna/something to make that wifi/BT actually usable?

The sad thing about the 4 is that it still does not have the crypto extensions. So no accelerated Syncthing.

TVs Ian posted:I forget the command, I think you basically have to edit the boot config on a MicroSD card, then once you boot it stays so you can remove the card and plug in the USB. I'm positive the 3B+ is preset that way. Some raspberrys can boot even without sd card (rpi4 is getting support some time later, brobably next year) but you can follow this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=44177 (works for all raspberrys) That way you can use smallest/cheapest sd card (for example 1gb) to boot. And the only time writes to it happen is kernel updates.

TheFluff posted:There are some other A72 options as well, like the ROCKPro64, but it's still a fairly old microarch. It's at least not that expensive though and it's more appealing than an ARMv7 option. Odroid N2 has A73. ROCKPro64 has A72 with Crypto extensions. Rapsberry pi 4 doesn't have those.

GeneralZod posted:Is there a list anywhere of external 2.5 inch USB hard drives that can definitely be used, unpowered, with later-model Raspberry Pis (e.g. 3B+; 4)? It's weirdly hard to find a definite answer to whether a given model will work - all I ever see is guesswork and speculation. At least on pi4 (if you are using the official or comparable powerbrick) all of them.

Steakandchips posted:Question: What's the next step up from a raspberry pi that is more powerful and can use a 2.5" ssd? A NUC? Most NUCs are a bit of a big jump in price from a pi. At this point Raspberry 4 is among the fastest ones (CPU side) in the below 100$. RockPro64 might be faster and has crypto extensions enabled. All other ARM based ones are slower or much more expensive. CatHorse fucked around with this message at 15:07 on Apr 9, 2020 |

mobby_6kl posted:What would be the benefit of 64 bit for the typical use cases for a pi? It'd be great to have it but I'm not surprised it's not a priority for them. Unlike your standard intel and amd processors where 64bit was mainly for more memory, on ARM 64bit brought new instructions and improved performance.

Soysaucebeast posted:This might not be something I can do on a Pi (or at all) but I figured y'all would be the best people to ask. I'm looking to scan a bunch of my older books and turn them into ebooks, and it seems like the easiest/cheapest way to do that is to scan each page individually, then convert the img files into PDF, pull the text from said PDF, merge all the PDF files into one big one, then convert it to an epub file. So while none of that is hard, it is tedious and time consuming. So I was wondering if there was a way to automate that somehow with the Pi. I don't mind scanning all the pages, but I'd like to automate the rest of it if I could. Or if there's an easier way, let me know. I know I could buy like a 600$ book scanner, but I am not trying to spend too much money on this. First i'd suggest researching if there already are ebook versions on . If not then feeding the images to Finereader or something like that. CatHorse fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Jul 1, 2021 |

wolrah posted:If I were in charge I'd have gone with a standard HDMI port for monitor 1 and then had monitor 2 supported through the USB-C port with a dongle. That offers the most compatibility with existing installations while supporting all the same capabilities. I think that c port on pi4 is only usb2.

Keisari posted:I'd like to access my pi from my desktop, but I am worried about security. If I enables SSH, is my pi available on the internet or only on LAN? Is it certain that I need to take extra stops to enable access from the internet? I'd only want to access it on lan for the security benefits. For some time the default OS disables password based SSH by default. Only key based is available (you can't brute force or guess that.). Also if your raspberry is behind a router you explicitly need to forward the ssh port. So by default its safe.

Sir Sidney Poitier posted:I've got I think is a Pi from 2012, it's got a 4GB SD card in it, it all works fine. Say I want to get a bigger SD card, what do I need to worry about in terms of compatibility, if anything? Are newer variants compatible with older readers, provided they don't exceed a given size? Even on the rpi1 you can move the system to an usb stick/drive. And use the sd only to kickstart boot.
