BAN RASPBERRY PI’S!
BAN COMPUTERS!
There probably will someday be a push to prevent common normal people from having access to computer systems that offer the user root or superuser access. “ThE aVeRaGe PeRsOn DoEsNt NeEd AdMiN pErMiSsIoNs” or “think of the children”. Ipads and surface pros will be allowed but something like a socket 1155 motherboard won’t.
Someday? Canada is already trying to ban the Flipper Zero, we’re living in your nightmare.
We’re gonna have problems getting enough software engineers in the future. How is anyone supposed to learn when everything is locked away. It’s already happening in the repair industry and the trades.
This is already happening with smart phones.
When the government starts taking away unlocked bootloader phones, I will be switching to ham radio instead of getting a locked down phone. Fuck the system.
No one wants LGA1155 anymore anyway so it’s Gucci, my i7-2600 was far past it’s life span 5 years ago
Speak for yourself, I’ll take anything that executes code and find a use for it
The IPC just isn’t good enough of those chips anymore, making them really inefficient. You’d be better off buying a modern celeron
A modern celeron costs like 150 bucks after a motherboard and ram, you can buy an old pc that’s bound for a landfill for like 20 bucks, and they are perfectly usable for something like a nas, a tor node, or a minecraft server
Edit: 150’s a bit high prolly like 90 is possible
The old wholesale of PCs for 20 buckeroos doesn’t really exist here in the UK so I never considered that
