  • Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.

    I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.

    They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.

    Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.

    Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.

    Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.










  • The person that made the claim never responded. I don’t know what you’re talking about.

    However I did respond, when I could.

    So point stands, an accusation was made without evidence, and that accusation is still there, and now mine and one other post responds to that accusation… that again is without evidence.

    My issues is, when I made that last post, why was I asked for a source, but no one asked the person making the claim against DDG for a source?

    If the people asking me for a source had also asked the original claimant for a source I’d have no issue.

    The practice of asking the counter claimant for a source and not the claimant is rife, unfair, unreasonable and needs to be called out.

    If seems far too common to accept a say so when an accusation is made online.


  • Don’t worry about getting anything wrong. Most people are pretty excited to speak with someone new or that doesn’t come on air often.

    We’re all just normal people, done of use are even a little introverted.

    Just say what’s on your mind.

    “Hi, I’m Joe, happy to be speaking with you, in kinda new to this and am a bit nervous. Anyhow how are you and where are you from?”

    Chances are that will spawn a conversation that feels less forced and more natural as you move forward.

    I’ve messaged you my email address. Never private messaged on Lemmy before so I hope it works. Just say hello and we can maybe catch up on echolink or discord.
