    I actually audibly laughed when Raspberry Pi came out with an 8GB version because for anyone who thinks 4GB isn’t enough probably won’t be happy with 8 either.

      I wonder what the hell they are doing with it? I mean I have the 3B with IIRC 1GB and I can use the desktop and run python scripts to fiddle with all the I/O ports and stuff, what do you do with a raspberry that needs eight times the RAM??

      I’m seriously curious!

        At that point you’re running some sort of server on it probably.

        For which, it’s not even the most cost effective hardware tbh. There are X86 based tiny PCs for good prices used
