Re: Raspberry Pi
Interesting, there are probably counts of the sales of the models
somewhere. My suspicion is that the popularity increased over time
so that there were probably more 3Bs than anything else. I have 3 3Bs
and 4 Zeros. I had a model B and a Zero die. I guess I've just
gotten used to it but these 3Bs seem about as fast what I would have
considered a "standard" Dell Intel workstation 10 years ago, but that
was Windows too. At about 1/10 of the price with much less energy.
Any program that's too slow I consider bloatware and get rid of it.
My phones are armv7 too.

No, I won't call it "climate change", do you have a "reality problem"? - AB1JX
Cities are cages built to contain excess people and keep them from
cluttering up nature.
