    Been seeing a bunch of articles on Hackaday about people using cheap thin clients like old chrome boxes. You gotta do some minor firmware work on them, but you end up with a more powerful computer, minus the GPIO pins. Probably what I'm going with as PIs are overpriced as hell nowadays.

    Esp32s are great if you just need some IoT type functions.

        There are many, many youtube tutorials out there, friend. As someone who was raised on computers, like way back in the 80's, the majority of my knowledge still came and comes from googling error messages. Code not working? Google the error message. Program not installing? Google the error message. Once you learn the basic keywords/jargon, it's really just a matter of googling what you want to do and finding a tutorial on it.

        Like literally on Google or youtube: [program or hardware] tutorial [extra keywords]

        There's also been a few 5ghz microcontrollers that have been coming out that i havne't messed with yet. Hoping they have the same sort of wifi security fuckery capacities as the esp32.🤞
