Why you may want a Raspberry pi?

The computer is around the size of debit or credit card so tiny size the storage is normally done on SD card but you can use other storage if you want to get more into things. What Is It? At its core, the Raspberry Pi is a tiny, low-cost computer . It usually stores data on a microSD card, but can also use external drives for more complex setups. It runs Linux (most often Raspberry Pi OS), but you can install other operating systems too. 🕹️ What People Use It For The Pi’s flexibility makes it a gateway into dozens of fun or useful projects. Some common use cases include: 🎮 Retro Gaming & Older Software Emulate classic consoles (NES, SNES, PlayStation, etc.). Run vintage PC software or create retro-style games. 💻 Learn and Practice Coding Get hands-on with Linux , command-line tools, and programming languages like Python, Scratch, or C++. Make your own software, automate tasks, or build games. 📡 Monitor the World Track boats or aircraft with public signals. ...

Gerald Jerry Lawson the father of videogame console cartridges

Before Gerald created cartridges nothing existed in this style to allow videogames to be put into future consoles like the snes or megadrive or N64 as the last cartridges which can all be credited to a very smart talented programmer who was African man who sadly pasted away 2011 I think in general a lot of people don’t know about him he should be as famous as the Super Mario creator to me since he done a lot of good for the gaming community or without him we could possibly have none of the popular games of the 1990s we all have in rom or other forms today or 1980s bit as well for the gaming area.

Gerald Jerry Lawson photo of him credit the Lawson family


He was born today on the 1 of December 1940 and was pioneer for videogames and was the director of engineer and marketing of Fairchild F System  it was not popular gameconsole  with under 30 games being sol for it over Atari making better system which basically did everything better tham and then Snes better again  or Megadrive as well.  

 the way for future gaming systems like the Atari, SNES, Dreamcast and more.


In the 1980s Lawson left Fairchikld to form his own company called Videosoft of the first Black owned video game development businesses  which they then made software for the Atari 2600 which was the console which replaced his creation/


In 1980, Lawson left Fairchild to start his own company, VideoSoft—one of the earliest Black-owned video game development companies. The company created software for the Atari 2600, which popularized the cartridge Lawson and his team developed.


To me the guy should got got his Award in the 1990s not when he’s passed away seems to be bit silly or bad when he done so much good for the gaming area we can all repect today.


Lawson setup a Fund to support the underrepresented Students who wish to do career as undergraduate or graduate degrees in game design or computer science and his success is memoorialized in the world videogame hall of Fame in Rochester New York

Is Windows 11 as bad as so many people claim?

 First thoughts It loads fast it has a much better display than Windows 10.  I was not a fan of Windows 10 it was overall very unattractive to see or work with overall and they tried so hard to like force the app ideas towards people which did not improve the user experience in anyway overall just make things get slow or not work well overall. Only thing I did not like the idea of being forced to make a email address or use run it seemed pretty overkill to me.  https://www.techradar.com/news/windows-11-home-and-pro The start up system is a bit slow here since so much updating has  get done in order for it to be ready to work. It would be good idea to not force people to start using Edge give other options such as Chrome or Brave or something else would be good idea since Edge is pretty slow running overall and not that good from a speed viewpoint Brave is my favorite browser at the moment for speed improvements and also because it protects your data better than Googl...

If you want to move away from Windows try Linux this a good option for you

You can have a working Raspberry Pi 5 working including buying a mouse and keyboard to get wireless and monitor for around £110 or if you want a bigger harddrive or SD card with 120gb, it goes up to the total cost of around £210. I have not used Windows in like 4 years I guess after Windows 10 and saw all it's issues stopped using it. I  have three or four Pis so far including pi 2 and 3 and 4 so far. Windows is probably harder to work than Linux for installing or making improvements. Whenever Windows did updates had to spend a few hours or longer changing or it get super slow again. https://www.theengineer.info/2025/01/introduction-to-being-anonymous-online.html Don't get put off by some Linux elitist people who see themselves as superior to all non Linux people or people use different ones such as Mint or Debian among others you could install. Rasbian is  a debrian system  Cases are good way to protect plus it allows you to keep them running better since move less than ...
