“I like the performance of the new Pi. The only kind of painful for me is that this 5V 5A power supply is not so popular on the market, so there are not a lot of ways to juice up our Pi at the moment - PoE Hat is also still not released.”
“I'm new to the Raspberry Pi, and I managed to get my hands on a Pi 5 4gb from Pimoroni and also the 8gb version. I'm using the 4gb for Klipper, and I'm setting up an AI assistant on the 8gb.
I'm always shocked when I realise what they can do. I've got so many uses for them, I'll definitely buy more when available.
Just a heads up, I had trouble with Pi Imager on Ubuntu 22 but got it working on Windows 10.”
“Slow starter. I saw the speed tests in the Magpi magazine but mine seems slow to start and load the web browser. It took 30 minutes to do the updates and that was after downloading the December 2023 disk image. You better have an HDMI to micro-HDMI adapter in your inventory or you need to buy one. otherwise, you will be disappointed when you cannot connect a monitor. I'm using a USB mouse and keyboard and the mouse makes sticky movements when changing tabs in Firefox. Not a huge issue but slower than I expected. The graphics are excellent. I'm in the US with gig-speed internet and web pages load slowly nearly 30 seconds to loan youtube.com. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I don't see much difference above the pi4.”
