If it was more powerful, I'd like it to host home assistant too, but I have RP4 for that purpose. I am also going to make an RP the centerpiece for my garage, controlling several doors and allowing remote control. While this may be done with cheaper devices like ESP32, it is kinda cool to a full RP to do this with a screen, RFID tags, and a touch screen to select which door to open.

    If I had this guy as some sort of mentor figure back when I was a kid, and if all the stuff he used existed, I'd be driving an SUV on Mars right now that I built myself, having arrived on Mars on a spaceship of my own design.
    P.S.: I'm nowhere near capable or gifted, but I used to play with motors, bulbs, and batteries when I was a kid, messing around with wires and switches, creating small "projects" around the house. This video has awakened that curious, tech-hyped child in me, and I'm just grateful to Sam for making me re-live that inspiring feeling I used to feel as a kid.

    Intel N100 mini PCs kick the pants off Raspberry Pis now, and they're VERY affordable. If you're not wiring things up to your GPIO header, you should probably skip the Pi. If you've got one, great, if you don't, then get an N100 for your home server. Then you have an x86_64 CPU rather than ARM (more software support), and you can upgrade your hardware easier (far more RAM, easier to add a second drive), don't have to worry about microSD corruption (if you've had a Pi, you likely know about it), and won't have a janky little thing hanging off your network that's annoying to deal with. The Pi was cool in its day, but they're too expensive/limited now compared to what else is available. *writing this from his N100 desktop machine that does it all*

      I've pondered buying Rpi clones in the past, but the thing about Rpis is that it's community is huge, and so is the support. If I have a problem, someone will be able to help me. And given that I'm not a developer, just a hobbyist, I WILL have problems.

    As a programmer and a developer, I've been a long adopter of the raspberry pi; every since their first. It became my daily probably more than 6 years ago with zero regrets. I'm not so much as a "fan boy" but the form factor, access to the gpio's, and available hats I just can't use a PC or Mac to do the projects i need to do as lightweight as they are. Currently i have probably 20 or do pi's and several other boards i purchased to test their functionality.

    High quality video of this technology not found often anywhere. That stuff your doing on the PI I am doing on the esp32 (not all at the same time) working to get better with the web technologies (html, css, js and some day a framework) and networking so I can build projects that can be controlled via web. Takes a lot of knowledge to do what you just did in this video.

      @SkyeTheDoggy 6 месяцев назад +7

      I get your point, but most people don't buy a Raspberry Pi for being a "mini-PC". Most people buys one because the combination between the GPIO pins and decent performance that enables people to create lots of projects that a traditional computer won't be able to do. Even for just a basic server they're great because they're power efficient while offering great performance in comparison with a "mini-PC".
