He's talking about a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. It's a $15 part.

Literally none of the pis need cooling. Each is quite a bit faster than the previous generation even if you let it thermally throttle the cpu.

Hobbyists spend shittons of money on their hobbies. A drawer full of raspberry pis is nothing.

They’ve been selling much more to industrial customers than hobbyists for the better part of a decade.

Most of the people buying raspberry pis are industrial customers who are not on the fence about whether to buy an SBC or someone’s trashed PC.

Microcenter doubled the price of the 500+ kit shortly after I bought one. Still $90 cheaper than Adafruit, unsurprisingly.

Never heard of her. His father, the tax evading felon recently pardoned by Trump, is rather more well known I would think. (But hardly a legend)

It must be difficult traveling the world and remembering all the different ways to be servile.

I expect they'd like to not mentor new people attempting to make real contributions as well. Sometimes you're just not in a position to do that.

This issue of separating the artist from his work is eternal and the comparison with some of these more contemporary issues you’re upset about rings a little hollow. The issue of not wanting to give money to a (perceived to be) horrible per

A number of his works are better than “okay,” today. You’re welcome to view that as a moral dilemma, or not.

I believe the remains of Asimov's literary legacy are probably managed by his daughter along with an agent. Presumably most of the money goes to her too, but I have no idea. In any case she always seemed nice enough.

I doubt there’s any permanent damage to the battery. It’s just that the car is bricked and you need a tow truck (and a trip to the dealership to get the battery recharged) if the battery is depleted completely, hence the warning.

I don't get it. I put my Toyota hybrid in neutral while going through a car wash all the time. I just googled this. I had no idea this was a thing some people worry about. I guess it's a problem if the hybrid battery runs out whil

I really think it's overly generous to throw people who do not understand the importance of extending Voyager's scientific mission into the "our best minds" category. I guess I agree with the larger point.

> Voyager is in maintenance, there is no big innovation or big progress to be made there. This is just so blatantly ignorant. As if you believe there's some other space agency taking scientific measurements out past the heliopause

That’s just delusional.

Did anyone actually believe that was anything more than a joke? It was a disgusting and weird thing to suggest about a disgusting and weird guy, and highly immature, but it's only libel if it's presented as being true.
