Expecting people to be rational about such important things like laptops is quite a stretch... I'm looking at using a rpi and some esp8266 wifi mcus for sensors and graphing going forward, will be interesting.

You go Micro-HDMI -> HDMI -> DVI.

haunted bong posted:Dumb question I’m sure but, my pc finally bit the dust and I’m thinking of replacing it with a pi 400, mostly due to my affection for the all-in-keyboard 8-bit computers of the 80s. Being as how I used my pc for web browsing/some YouTube videos, would I realistically be just fine with this? Get a used SFF from Dell/HP/Lenovo or an intel NUC or something along those lines. They can often be had for not much (<$250), and if you get one that's new enough to have pcie nvme ssd, they're really snappy

skull mask mcgee posted:what? lossy formats roll off the highs, not the lows. It's not about rolloff, but how well the codecs handle the lower frequencies in general. Some are (un)surprisingly pretty bad.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:Yeah I'd have to figure you're probably better off spending $200 on a used NUC or sff ThinkCenter or something. You can get them even cheaper than that, too. uSFF machines like the thinkcentre tiny and equivalent dell's and HP's are often $100ish and do very well.

Rand Brittain posted:I'm starting to feel like the Pi 4's reputation suffers from the fact that it's close enough to being a "real computer" that people judge it for the fact that it's bad at being one. Probably? The pricing also affects this - as you're getting into low-end used (u)SFF territory when you look at the 8GB Pi4. It also suffers from being recommended for tasks that it might not be wholly suited for, like octoprint and some home automation stuff.

Saukkis posted:It's funny to read these posts, while my coworker has been using a RasPi connected to a TV as his remote workstation for the past three years since the covid quarantines started. I think he has mentioned it's the 256MB version. But he has always had weird masochistic tendencies. If he's using the rpi to remote into something else, that can work

Most of the "poo poo broke" issues with stuff that people like to run on a pi, isn't due to the thing they're trying to run, but due to the pi using SD cards. SD cards are poo poo and whoever thought it was a good idea to use them on the pi should get a loving paddlin'

Vaporware posted:IT not working with OT* is a favorite topic of mine. A lot of time OT doesn't need every single thing they ask for, but lack the specialist knowledge of firewalls or other protocols they have been asked to add to a system, so they ask for the whole thing to start isolating the problem. OT is a dumb acronym but it works to at least START to explain to people that OT and IT is not the same, and OT is always, unquestionably, going to be a complete dumpster fire*. That said, with the background I have (10 years as an industrial automation engineer, 20+ years loving with IT and networks), I'm happy to at least be able to explain to the firewall experts what I need and how poo poo should work. This saved our bacon during the recent firewall migrations. Of course there's still skeletons falling out of that closet, which is how I'm currently racking up a pretty silly amount of double time for not a lot of actual work. *I'm an OT network engineer at a large public transit org and I got the last call about a switch loving poo poo up for prod about an hour ago

I just had the home theatre thread up and got confused at the "CM4" thing, as that's a B&W speaker  (I'd be pretty excited about CM4's being right around the corner, in that case)

DHT11 is poo poo, but a Pi has I2C and the SHT3x and SHT4x sensors are pretty good, also cheap as chips. For off the shelf you can get wireless sensors on 433 / 868 MHz but you need to interface with the base station somehow to get the data. I use ESPhome on NodeMCUs + SHT30 sensors in Home Assistant, very cheap and easy to set up.

I actually ran DHT11's in my HA setup up until yesterday... knowing full well they were bad. Guess when I swapped in the SHT30
