I agree with you but the Raspberry Pi's USP is the GPIO interfacing capability and the community surrounding it. You don't get these things with a second hand computer.

Rather than using DietPi for my devices around my home I use Balena (balena.io), which seems to cover the same area. In addition it has a dashboard so I can see the status of the devices too. Balena is Docker based. No connection with Balen

It is interesting to see the ESR (Equivalent series resistance) of the capacitors replaced too. This can be more significant than the absolute capacitance.

Currently a Back end C# Dev here, 65 year old, so not old yet, I also exercise regularly 2 * Body Pump, 3 * Body Combat, 2 * Sh'bam, 1 * Body Balance. I find the group exercise classes keep me sharp for work too.

Raspberry PI OS 32bit is compiled for ARMv6 to support the orginal Raspberry pi. I wonder what impact on benchmarks there would be compiling for ARMv7 hence only supporting Raspberry pi 2 and later?

Quite a poor noise figure and bad spurs/harmonics for a signal generator.

Perhaps use "Image File Execution Options" on Microsoft Edge. Edge will never see the 'microsoft-edge://' links? https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/cms/page_2621770.html

I don't think we could afford anything, but I could over a period of time build my own.

If I was going to use a Raspberry Pi for commercial use I would want full control over the OS and use Open Embedded etc, just like I have done for NXP etc. That way I have full control over my system. I think the alternative of using Raspbe

I would put a suitable USB plug on it rather than wiring to the GPIO pins as I am certain in a rush I would plug it in wrongly damaging the Pi!

To start the ARM processor in aarch64 (64bit) mode is just a question of setting the flag in the arm control (arm_control=0x0200) register to 0x0200 in the config.txt. see the discussion at https://www.raspberrypi.org/forum
