That’s Saturday night in North American time zones. Just a heads up in case you’re planning a boys’ night out a couple hundred billion years in advance, maybe move it to Friday night in case the world ends Saturday night.
Didn’t we learn our lesson 24 years ago with Y2K!?
EDIT: To be clear, I was being facetious. I remember my parents and father freaking out about this when I was in middle school. I would have thought we got this taken care of permanently already
Well then you may also like this comment here about the RPi’s lack of hardware innovation and features. And this one about how it is just a product that stays in between two very different markets and doesn’t really serve anyone.
The SheevaPlug was the OG Raspberry Pi released years before the Raspberry Pi that nobody cared about because there wasn’t a media hype around it.
Now the interesting part is: it included an ARM CPU @ 1.2 GHz and it was released in 2009 with dedicated Gigabit ethernet plus another isolated USB chip. Note that the Raspberry Pi was released years later, in 2012, with a 100M ethernet + USB shared chip that was total garbage. They kept selling that garbage until 2019 with the release of the Raspberry Pi 4 that finally came with Gigabit.
Another interesting fact about the SheevaPlug is that there was a variant with an https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SheevaPlug_ports.jpg once again totally obliterating the Raspberry Pi 4 and making it the perfect low power system for a NAS at the time.
