My (formerly) $55 Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB has more memory, more storage, more compute power, and more network speed than the Cray X/MP I worked with in the early '90s... Don't tell me you need a bigger, faster computer. You need software that's not morbidly obese.
- cosmodisk 4y agoWe used to have this joke when I was a kid: a new Russian arrives to a computer store in his S600 Mercedes. He ask for the top specs, with multiple processors, SCSI hard drives, UPS and what not. While the sales rep is packing all the gear, the Russian is still somewhat not satisfied. He looks deep down in to the sales rep's eyes and says: are you absolutely 100% certain I'll be able to play Tetris on this????
