Sold out… remarks saying pre-order for next batches to ship in Dec or later. Yay…
Preordered an 8GB… I’ll have it sometime next year wooooooo
“Available”
Oh! Oh. Nevermind. Welp. Back to Orange Pi. At least they’re available.
Orange Pi
How are these things? Any issues with Linux compatibility?
Also shout out !sbcs@lemux.minnix.dev
It’s an Armbian distro. Down side is you can’t install Pi images for specific things, you need to build them manually, but other than that no real issues. Also you can run Android (that was trickier to setup as it needs a windows only tool to flash it to the SD card.
Available for now? More like available for 5 minutes
We are continuing to increase our production rate, with the aim of fulfilling all backorders, and getting Raspberry Pi in stock at all our Approved Resellers, by the end of the year –
I feel like I’ve heard that last part a few years in a row.
They changed the board design to be much faster to produce by Sony, who manufactures them.
Does anybody know if they addressed the issues with WiFi and Bluetooth interfering with each other?
“Available”
For bots to get the whole stock for corporate needs

Already sold out? Have they learned nothing? At this point they have to be doing it intentionally.
Scalp their own product and sell it for a markup just like how Nintendo does it with amibos and mini consoles.
Hi, can someone point me to a good resource where I can ask for DIY solution of home speaker.
I need home speakers that can play music and messages from home machine.
Target music is something like jellyfin, messaging is not decided.
Goal is to have a speaker per room like Apple speaker, but controllable from Linux.
Try https://ropieee.org/. I use it for use with roon. But it also makes it work with Spotify and airplay. Just add some powered speakers or get fancy and a nice amp/combo. Hopefully that works for you.
The bridge is free, but underlying software is paid service subscription.
https://ropieee.org/xl/ It works without roon. Hope it helps get you going.
To bad that Raspberry Pi lost its cool, when they began to “cooperate” with Microsoft, and grant Microsoft access to your device.
Can you support your claim? Raspberry py offers a Linux based computer and you can install whatever the hell you want on it.
Yeah I’d like a source too because what they said makes no sense. The immature way they responded to criticism of someone they hired is a good reason to be turned off of the pi, no need to actually make up something ridiculous.
I think they’re referring to that one time they installed a Microsoft repo on Raspbian without permission.
Thanks, that makes more sense. According to an article on ars it doesn’t actually install anything so I don’t see their problem. All they have to do is comment out the line or just use a different distribution.
It was removed a month later anyway. Now VSCode can be installed through the main Raspbian repo.
No it was not. Maybe it was removed later, but definetely not after a month, I think I gave them ½ a year.
I think the main problem is just screwing with the system like that without permission. I mean, I know I was pretty pissed off when I found a Microsoft repo in my sources one day. It’s not like it was a standard update or anything.
Are you saying they don’t anymore?
I honestly stopped caring about Raspberry Pi at all after that. And we have 7 of them.
I simply don’t trust them anymore.
Explain how adding a Microsoft repo that doesn’t actually install anything is the same as giving Microsoft access to your device?

Ha! I mean yeah Micro$oft is bad but honestly, VScode is so useful. Unless you’re a Vim hardcore VScode is the way to go imo.
Lots of things to criticize rPi foundation for, but this is just goofy BS.
