Even the Pi has lost its headphone jack…
To be fair, the pi’s have always been famous for low quality sound cards, so there’s plenty of hats that can add the functionality.
Great, more unobtainium
The Pi foundation screwed over its original customer base by diverting practically ALL available inventory to business customers. Good riddance.
Why business would buy raspberries? I am out of the loop.
They should stop supporting cops!
I’m afraid to ask but… how are they supporting cops?
Finally, a pi good for 4K video! (Apparently Raspberry Pi 4 could as well, but I am assuming this is an improvement. I still have a couple of Raspberry Pi 3’s.)
I don’t know about lately, but 4k on Pi 4 was always janky.
I want to be excited about this, but I just don’t believe I’ll actually be able to get one for retail price. For much of the RP4 lifecycle they prioritized corporate sales, and regular consumers were out of luck. I don’t have a lot of faith in them right now.
we’re going to ringfence all of the Raspberry Pi 5s we sell until at least the end of the year for single-unit sales to individuals, so you get the first bite of the cherry.
They’re probably doing that for first batch bug fixes.
It’s gotten to the point with Windows 11 killing so many thin clients for businesses with TPM that you can typically find used ones for nearly as much as a Pi. Unless you need the size and efficiency I just struggle to find reason to buy another Pi if I need to selfhost something.
Pis are really cool but they really have become more corporate focused and it shows.
