I’m sure they’ve fixed it, but… omg, furry is not of my taste 
Got a Raspberry Pi yay 
Try guessing the model

I think I got a better look, preserved for eternity

based on the USB C and 2 mini HDMI, a model 5. 8 or 16 gb of ram?
Thats because even the offical SD card isn’t that fast. Not compared to the SSD HAT that the model 5 can use\boot from

Yep, Model 5 with 8 GB of RAM. (Why didn’t you assume a 1/2/4 GB one)
I doesn’t have the SSD HAT…
Surprisingly, I can pretty much tolerate the Micro SD performance

Wouldn’t the 1GB one run really bad? It’d run fine if you make software that can tolerate 1GB ram, but if you were to run standard apps I’m guessing it’d wear the SD card because of all the swap
Didn’t even know there were 1gb models lmao, I thought the Pi 3 was the last to have 1gb. That reminds me I have one laying around somewhere in a box

First of all I don’t know how but Raspberry Pi OS consumes only about ~470 MB when idle.
Just consider those "Zero"s which 1 GB is the max memory…
Here’s the catch: Raspberry Pi OS is clearly aware of this issue and it actually uses zram (operates entirely in RAM) instead of a swap partition for virtual memory.
0 wear on the SD card

Because you seem like the kind of person who’d want the better performance… that and I completely forgot about the existence of the 1/2gb models lol
Its quite an expensive addon so not many people have it… but the imaging software assumes a max speed of an SSD (I went to school with one of the devs lol)

4x2*1111?

You over-complicated it I believe, he probably just mean that the Infinity character is just an 8 rotated 90 degrees and 4x Infinity is just 8888

Can’t say the same for myself, had to throw away a NEW card because there was a memory leak somewhere, or I guess it was just way too cheap
Or both.

That’s got to be a first.

Red hat console and canonical landscape luckily provide a similar functionality while i don’t have my own Pi 
Screen sharing? They can do that? Wow!

I still ended up installing Windows because I’ve found a pretty good Windows XP styled 10 and I thought “emmm let me give it a try”, only to find out that not only the mod is less good than I initially though (not that big of a deal) but also that the mod bundled adware!!! 
(No it’s not eXPerience Freestyle, it’s English and the mod I’ve found is in Chinese, so don’t panic)
The same modder also have a 10 to 7 mod but I’m already too afraid to try now, and since Surface Go doesn’t dualboot Windows + Linux, I nuked Fedora and now I can just get myself a regular Windows 10…

For me the UI of the Raspberry Pi OS looks surprisingly similar to that of Numwork[1]’s, so I took a step further and set my accent color to #ffa501, the same orange Numwork uses

Not used a pi in a few years… It used to feel very windows xp lol

I think that I understand why @TiffanyLynch is using VNC on Android for a Linux Desktop.
I’m writing this on my iPhone when VNCing into the Pi and it really feels different…
It still feels this way when looked closer (Although I would say 2000 is closer) but it does give a Numworks vibe and that’s what’s catching my eyes
