That feeling when your $500 phone is equally as powerful as one of these units... That feeling when your meal at McDonalds, super-sized, costs more than this computer... That feeling when you can't use your new $500 phone to do what this does... That feeling when your cat eats this computer, and you shrug and get another one, because, mpppf only $10... That feeling when your vet tells you to stop feeding your cat computers... That feeling when you realize the alarm-clock by your bed, is 100x larger, 100000x less complex, and 4x more expensive...
I would think that having computers ON a computer lab or ON a library, would be equally odd. Do you need a ladder to get up there, or do they have lifts? I'd think having them IN a school, lab or library would be far more beneficial, and would save them from the elements too. I would imagine when it rains, they get pretty wet, and that's not very OH&S compliant.... None of you will finish school, will you.
Ahh, well that does make sense. Just have to be careful of all the students up there, they tend to wander around aimlessly and may fall off. Perhaps they can use the umbrella also, like lemmings. Oo
RU-vidrs think the bell is for their fans to watch their videos. Fans know the bell is for them to comment "First" or something unoriginal in hopes of getting likes
Macbooks are overpriced and shit. Anything apple is shit. Windows PC's are not just affordable, but massively upgradeable. Oh, and NEVER Buy a PC. Build it.
That version of Minecraft is optimized for the Pi. RU-vid doesn't work well because it is anything but optimized. I'm not positive about the Zero (or Zero W), but my Pi 3 runs RU-vid perfectly if I use it through optimized players like omxplayer and Kodi. The Pi 3 has a dedicated GPU that can even run 3D stuff well (for the cost obviously) and RU-vid videos run perfectly when using the GPU. Sadly, Chromium (open-source version of Chrome) and other web browsers don't currently work with the special GPU.
I'm pretty sure there is no hardware acceleration for videos (in browser), so it's being decoded on poor CPU while Minecraft obviously uses GPU to render.
The issue i have with this video is that Austin is treating it like a mini desktop computer for Minecraft and stuff like that, but its actually for stuff like drones, robots, remote control, hell even huge computer corporations are using pi computers as nodes in their server banks. The only reason Minecraft is on there is mainly for stress testing systems. Its an engineering tool not a toy, it just feels like this video insulted what the computer is capable of and just advertised it as any other cheap toy computer.
Bugman5352 Minecraft it wasn't designed for kids, the operating system he had on it had some programs for coding that kids could use, but it's mainly used by hobbyists.
@Hypergen "The Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation to promote the teaching of basic computer science in schools and in developing countries" see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi So yeah this is designed for kids. The maker-scene just used them for such things as robots, remote control etc.. Also this is the Minecraft Pi version which is another version than the java version of minecraft.(which is able to run on a Pi) this version is designed to mod it, with python code, it's made for bringing kids to program.
Austin the pi isn't made to be used as a computer. those holes are where the GPIO pins go. You can connect all kind of things there - buttons, LEDs, motors etc. and control them using python built in. For example you could use the pi to build a quadcopter. or something which I did is to control lighting with ultrasonic sensors. If u have heard if an arduino it is similar to this
VCubing X not the pi zeros... the main $35 raspberry pis though are designed for that to some extent, but its meant more for lightweight web browsing and programming, and using the minecraft pi edition to program with python... other than that, its beyond its hardware and purpose
I wish I had bought a few Pi's back in the day. I didn't know what to do with them, but they were cheap. Now, I actually just rebuilt an old laptop, replaced the internal and external battery, upgraded the RAM, changed the fan, and replaced the spinning disk with a SSD, because it was cheaper than a Raspberry Pi.
sounds about right, at the extreme ends of any product the price doesn't change proportionately to increases in functionality such as capacity, speed or whatever else for other products, as you go lower and lower end the cost of the materials and setting up the machines to manufacture the item become as prominent in the price as the cost of designing the product.
I have the raspberry pi 4 (im using it to watch this video haha) and from my first impressions, i would recommend it. it can watch you tube, play games (mostly retro 8bit games, anyway.) Still, for how cheap this newer model is, i would recommend it as a backup desktop or first pc/ school or work pc.
Depends on what you want from the server. People have done Minecraft servers on Raspberry Pis but they're really low requirement servers like a few players in a vanilla world.
everything they produce is always out of stock for the first half a year. Unlike the previous raspberry pi zeroes, this is probably the one to stay because it's the holy grail for DIY IoT. Expect more in a few months. Until then, you can subscribe to a notification at adafruit, which are usually some of the first to get new shipments.
Arduino is something else. It's much more rudimentary. Banana pi is a good one, though Or orange pi, but that's less supported. Or pecan pie, but that's because I'm hungry and I like pecan pies.
Not sure if its the same but they look a like usb.brando.com/rii-mini-i8-2-4g-mini-wireless-keyboard-with-touchpad_p02658c0034d015.html There are other sites where u can buy it for like 8 dollar.. for example on sites like Aliexpress
I have one that's branded as iPazzPort, and its got its ups and downs, so here's a few of them that i came up with during my time of having it. Pros: It's cheap. It's lightweight. The ones that feature rechargeable batteries use standard Nokia batteries. The aforementioned battery will get you quite a few hours of use out of it. Buttons for almost everything, including laptop Function keys, the trackpad has a nice feel too it. No need for a driver disk as windows automatically picks it up as a usb keyboard/mouse. Cons: the light weight of it makes it feel very flimsy, and it does have a little bit of flex in it. The device itself is deceptively small, and this might make your hands cramp up if you have big hands. the track pad while it feels nice, is also very small, even the acer netbook i have has a larger track pad than this device. Depending on where you order it from you may end up getting a variant that uses 2 AAA batteries instead of a single rechargeable one. the wireless dongle can be a total pain to get out of its compartment some times Overall its a good device, very reliable, and excellent if you need a really portable keyboard and track pad combination in a pinch. Although i would not suggest using this as a full time wireless keyboard, and if you game this won't make them any easier......trust me i tried borderlands 2 using it XD
There is a version of Kodi for the Raspbian OS and for the Raspberry Pi Zero W. It allows you to watch videos, even on RU-vid at lagfree 1080p@30fps no problem!
My gosh the raspberry pi can run minecraft so smoothly. My potato laptop runs it on 5 fps with all the graphics turned down(and it's a pentium dual core with 4gb ram).
you can play youtube on it, just download a youtube video using youtube-dl in stream mode and pipe it into omxplayer from the commandline, this allows you to watch youtube videos in fullscreen whitout stutter on the raspberry pi zero
I have 3 Pi’s: zero 1.3 (without WiFi), zero W (With WiFi), and 3B+. I have the zero w as a home security camera using a pi camera and something called HomeBridge for non-HomeKit devices. I can use SSH to add, remove, or update any plugins and make changes to its config file. I have that one hung up on the wall. The 3B+ I have is for a colorful light strip and my PS4 to turn on with HomeKit. I forgot the SSH password, so I haven’t fully been able to optimize it to work with my PS4. But it def works well. Had fun with these at the beginning of… you know
Honestly, I run Linux (Ubuntu 18/04 and Manjaro Rolling) on desktop and laptop respectively... I also have a couple of XP machines and a drive running Windows 10 on my Manjaro machine... I have used a Raspberry Pi from the Model B (512MB RAM version) and the Pi 3 model B (not the B+). I honestly love the Pi 3 B because I can have a device to mess around with and work with random projects... I destroyed my old Pi, but that's ok. Hey, Austin, I think you should learn a bit more about Linux, you might have fun.
Well now that the raspberry pi 4 8gb model is out I will be using that as desktop setup to replace my laptop, and what's great about it is I can take it just about anywhere as long as I have a power source, monitor, mini keyboard and a mouse.
The power of XP on sigle core machines when it first came out... talk about moving forward in reverse when we have cell phones with more cores and power that run off a 3.7v/4.2v(full) battery.
You probably don't care but to those who were actually curious as to why they came up with the name. It's because many computer companies have a fruit for their name such as Apple, Apricot, Tangerine etc. As for Pi it's because Python was originally supposed to be the intended language for the system in the early days of development. Thus Raspberry Pi.
2:00 nope! you cant use your phone adapter! you will have to buy one witch can deliver upto 5.1v and 2.5 a. a normal phone adapter with fast charging has 5v 2.1a.
Each Pi Zero is approximately 300MFlops. Ignoring the serious latency issues and limitations of the single USB 2.0 bus (max 127 devices) to construct such a massively clustered system, we can come up with some calculations and comparisons. With 10 million units, we'd have 3000 TFlops of performance. The current top supercomputer is the Sunway TaihuLight, which coincidentally has about 10 million cores in it, but pumps out 125,000 Tflops. So, this Pi zero won't come near top-levels of performance even if you could somehow get that many installed, which is impossible due to the serious limitations in the communications bus.
Hey, great video for people just getting into the pie scene, just a little typo maybe, all usb chargers provide 5v that's the standard, it's the current limit you should talk about.
Austin you should give a try to a real pi like the new raspberry pi 3 model b +. The difference it’s huge mainly cause the zero version it’s more likely to be used on IoT projects. I have the 3 model B + and I use it as a NAS using openmediavault serving my 3TB external HDD to all my computers and my phone trough SFTP and SAMBA, also works as a time machine drive for my MacBook backups and it runs owncloud so I can have access to all my files from everywhere. On top of all that it runs osmc wich is a Kodi based software that allows me to access to all that content on my hard drive from my tv and to watch RU-vid and lots of more things. It can be used in many projects and can host lots of services for home networks. The raspberry pi it’s a really cool thing to use specially in cases like mine cause I live in a country with literally 0 internet acces from your house or your phone, and the little we have it’s strictly limited. Let me know what you think. Also btw I’m glad you made it out of that fire and you’re doing videos again, keep doing it. Sending lots of support.
I still really want to take a Raspberry Pi and put it in an old, hollowed-out Walkman case (from an already broken Walkman...I'm not an animal)...then use it as an MP3 player...then feel remorse that my phone already has ~20,000 songs on it. Or, I could build a custom case and button setup, and use it as a TG-16/PCE portable emulation machine...or I could by a new-old stock TG-16 controller and use the controller itself as the case for the Pi, with a folding screen...or use it as a plug-n-play, with the old controller-out lead becoming the mini-HDMI. I could probably power it with a slightly-outdated, clearance phone battery.
I am currently making a raspberry pi 3 into a decent computer and I have Windows iot for OS and will try to get about 32 GB and 1080p resolution. I am calling in the Apple Pi
The minecraft on it is meant for python to teach people how to code You can use python with it to do things such as display things in the chat, set blocks etc
