  • It’s just a computer. You can do whatever you need a computer for. Browse Lemmy on it. Play video games on it. Use it as a server. Make it run an ad video on the TV in your store window.

    Whatever you need a PC for. If you don’t need a PC for something, you don’t need a Raspberry Pi.

    The entire point of the Raspberry Pi was that it was a very very cheap PC, and it’s no longer cheap, so nowadays there is definitely less reason to buy one.















  • That’s the communication problem in these conversations. Whether it’s a useful tool and whether it’s an ethical tool are two different questions. People come in and attack the developers for generating slop, and they respond that they are experienced developers who can use the tool properly to increase the security of the code or whatever. And the conversation here is about that.

    And then someone like you comes in talking about ethics, which is what we should be talking about, but we are talking past each other.

    The truth is most commenters are not technically skilled to evaluate or critique their decisions.

    I don’t need to be skilled to evaluate or critique their decisions.

    You are both correct. But the former is about the engineering, the latter is about ethics. You do need to technically skilled to evaluate whether AI is a useful tool for Graphene. You don’t need to in order to critique it on ethical grounds. These are completely different topics that have nothing to do with each other.
