The eleventh circle of hell: setting up an RPi camera module
- theamk 3y ago> Short story long, don’t trust any of the community content; it’s full of ghosts and wolverines and those people you meet at parties that start the conversation with “so what do you do?”… Rely solely on the official RPi docs. Remove "RPi" and this is such a good advice: always go for the official docs first. Search for something mildly uncommon on Google (like "python3 __file__") and first page is full on random re-telling junk... geeksforgeeks, tutorialspoint, askpython, pythonanywhere... Those things are likely "mostly correct" which is IMHO a worst thing of correct - they may omit of important details, or refer to old version of python, or present deprecated way, or describe implementation detail that should not be relied upon.
