At this price point, why are RPi’s even a thing? Wow!

Thank you

Bruh, I love you.

Valid point, I see where you are coming from.

Just curious, why is an x86 architecture a sought after feature in your opinion? My understanding is that ARM is more “bang for your buck” in terms of computation effort to power draw.

I say this because my M2 (ARM based) MacBook does all sorts of heavy lifting and still lasts me more than a day on a single charge compared to my old Intel MacBook running the same services doing the exact same stuff.

Please correct me if I am wrong. I would really appreciate to learn more from people who have more knowledge than I am.

Most of my services use a network mounted drive so storage isn’t really a factor (although the more the merrier of course).

My main bottleneck is computation power.

Lol 😂

Doesn’t swap reduce the lifespan of storage though?

How do you monitor your wattage?

Can you please explain to me the difference? How does a swapdisk compare to RAM? I don’t mind googling it but I highly doubt I’ll get a straightforward ELI5 style answer from there.

I would really appreciate it if you can elaborate, if you have the time that is.

Thank you.
