I’m in the same boat. Sports discussions were the only reason I used Reddit originally

Saying I don’t consent to surgery isn’t the best thing to say. But gosh the the doctors face… priceless

It all depends on what your usecase is. If someone’s just starting out and wanting to do gpio stuff with a Linux os, yeah the pi may still be the best bet since it’s got such a large following and guides written. But if someone’s got more experience and just needs a cheap small form factor machine to run Linux and interact with some non mission critical gpios, a small nuc with a pico will give you a greater bang for the buck!

That’s a good point. An expensive qb coach but hey if he can turn Zach around… I’m not a Jets fan either. Just here for the chaos.

On the bright side he’s 1-0 as the NJ Jets starting QB!

There’s an arcade in the center of town beneath an expensive (yet shitty) apartment complex. The arcade windows are covered but there is a sign that says “Opening Soon”. It’s been two years and nothing has changed externally. At first I was giving them the benefit of the doubt, but the property is expensive to rent and after 2 year I have my doubts.

What I don’t understand though is if you were using the place as a front, wouldn’t an arcade be a great place to launder money while your at it?

I mean, idk about vaping. I think we all knew that was dangerous lol.

Hey man don’t give up! Well maybe give up on using the mac mini - i’ve never used one but if it’s going to be a pain to install linux go grab something cheap on eBay or FB Marketplace if that’s a thing in your area. I recently bought a cheap dell optiplex (I think?) on marketplace for like, ~$25? Not sure what your use case is, but if you don’t need a super fast nas, most cheap desktop machines on your local buy/swap community purchase place will do the job just fine. Don’t let the mac mini be what holds ya back!

I’m not sure I’d say it’s completely harmless, but isn’t pumping gas while the car is running generally not a huge risk?
