You're speaking my language

Raspberry Pi master race

To my knowledge, we're the only political organization which stores all of its sensitive without any third party hosting services whatsoever.

They're going to be dropping the RPi 4 next year. It's supposed to have a new 1.8 GHz processor and 2 GB of ram for the same price point.

Are the ones you use RPi 3's?

Half 2's, half 3's.

@Flaxxer I have a Pi 3

Cloud computing and storage can be done dirt cheap if you can get enough Zero's or Zero W's together

MicroCenter sells them for $1 every once in a while

Sadly I havent been able to do much (because of the intense amount of other things I have been pre-occupied with).

Like taking care of my Aunt's kid.

Keeping the house maintenanced, etc.

I had a project I was trying with my Pi 2, but never got it off the ground

In a crisis situation, I can fit the party's encryption keys and critical info into my ass with only minor discomfort.

Raspberry Pi is the easiest way to get into programming, Linux, and IOT

@Hadrian Yea. I wanted to learn hacking w/ Kali Linux.

On my Pi 3

I was trying to make it an OBM card for my PC, which I used to RDP into from work and had an issue where it needed to be rebooted periodically

Damn.

I haven't screwed much with robotics or home automation. I ought to. For me, they're just handy for compartmentalizing components.

but now I work from home and I fixed the rebooting issue anyway

I know I am also learning Python.

@Sir88 Arch and QubeOS are Linux master race

I like WattOS for solar projects though

I should learn python. I've avoided ruby and python forever.

@Flaxxer Yea. I might get an image for Arch.

I have an Alexa that manages much of my home automation

Raspbian is handy for guys who actually want packages.

Python is the best language for physical devices.

Robots and such

I also am considering building "Reconnaissance Spider Drones" for my workplace.

@Fevs Doesn't change how bad they are, just the manifestation

(((Alexa)))

>home automation
What is this Googlery

She gets unplugged when I'm doing something I don't want her to hear

Rasbian is another one of my favorite OS's

Ubuntu has always been lackluster for me tbh

Maybe after TWP wins the lawsuit, we can afford a set of dedicated servers for practicing PenTesting.

I've always been averse to home automation. It would have to be my pis and my setup, because I don't trust anybody else's devices or code in my personal space like that.

@MadKicker I would love to do that 😇

but controlling my lights, making my morning coffee and playing music/giving me the daily news is great
