Single-Board Computers

I'd rather build a Raspberry Pi security camera than ever pay for Ring again

Someone built a four-node Raspberry Pi cluster you can pick up with one hand

This Raspberry Pi e-ink display looks like framed wall art, and the software behind it is open source

Running Pi with local LLMs on a Raspberry Pi sounds chaotic, but it actually works

5 Raspberry Pi projects I'm self-hosting this year instead of wasting money on monthly subscriptions

I used a LattePanda Sigma with 32GB of RAM as my ‘too much power’ home lab box, and immediately found work for it

I moved my self-hosted apps from a Raspberry Pi to an N100 mini PC, and I should have done it sooner

My Raspberry Pi node was holding me back

The Raspberry Pi 6 delay until 2028 solves a problem nobody's talking about

Raspberry Pi 6 will focus on fundamental improvements and better performance, while trying to be the budget-friendly SBC that enthusiasts love.

6 projects I’ve already built with my $15 Raspberry Pi Zero 2W

For such an inexpensive, tiny little SBC, it certainly gives me a lot of fun and assistance in a number of projects

You, too, can make this Raspberry Pi eInk display that won't pester you all day

It's easy to make.

This Raspberry Pi project turns your ceiling into a real-time airplane tracker

Making plane noises with your mouth is optional, but recommended.

This awesome Raspberry Pi project uses the Pepper's Ghost illusion to make a holographic display

No actual ghosts were used in the making of this device.

I turned my Raspberry Pi into a portable NAS that runs off a power bank, and now I carry terabytes everywhere

That's one way to carry a NAS in my travel bag, I suppose

Your smart home needs fewer Raspberry Pis and more boring microcontrollers

Microcontrollers are surprisingly useful for Home Assistant projects

N100 mini PCs quietly killed the Raspberry Pi for home servers

Your Raspberry Pi home server is obsolete, and the N100 is why

Your home network doesn't need Pi-hole — an $8 ESP32 blocks ads just as well for a fraction of the cost

Tiny board can do the task.

Your next "Raspberry Pi project" doesn't actually need a Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi is just not worth it anymore

I paired a Raspberry Pi with an ESP32, and it unlocked projects I never thought of before

A Raspberry Pi can do a lot, but adding an ESP32 gives it the physical reach that small hardware projects often need.

Stop treating the Raspberry Pi 5 as a smart home hub — it's actually built for something bigger

This SBC can do more than run Home Assistant. Treat it as a small service hub, and its extra power finally makes sense.

I started my home lab with a mini PC instead of a Raspberry Pi, and the difference was massive

Going x86 over ARM.

I cut Apple and Google out of my smart home with a $5 ESP32, and it was easier than I expected

Thread, locally done right

I turned my Raspberry Pi into a pocket Linux server that runs from a power bank, and it's weirdly useful

It might just become my new travel companion

I ran this bulky LLM on an SBC cluster, and it's the most unhinged setup I've ever built

My SBC cluster runs bigger models than a single Raspberry Pi, but the trade-offs are brutal

I ran three home server apps on the Orange Pi Zero 3W to see where it would break, but it hasn't

The Orange Pi Zero 3W is a powerful SBC, and it's shockingly capable.

My Raspberry Pi 4 still has a job in my homelab, and it isn't Home Assistant

Reassigned, and better for it.

I built the weirdest possible NAS from hardware I already owned, and it works surprisingly well

This project may not be good enough for a dedicated NAS, but it's a decent backup server
