It entirely depends on what you want to do with it. So calling it underpowered is not a statement that can be made in general.
Requires: time travel
The same reason people drive their car to buy groceries.
You bought it for something where it was the only option, driving 30km to work everyday. But ever since you got it, the trip to the super market is kinda too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter and what if you spontaneously need to buy more than expected?
People learn it for front end dev, and then they use what they know for back end too.
Seriously, a lot of weirdly negative comments here.
Yeah, it's not great that prices go up, but a few months ago was the lowest price for memory and storage we have ever seen in all of history. 40€/TB at the low end for SSDs. That's absolutely insane. It was entirely expected for prices to rise a bit again.
The one with the 5m long nerve? Because it needs to loop around an artery near the heart, as that was the shortest way back when that nerve first developed. And now the source and destination are still close, but the heart moved. But no one has gotten around to make that legacy code more efficient.
One of my favorites as well.
And llama file, which is a chat bot in a single executable file.
I have a pi4, 4GB. And running off of an SSD (connected via SATA to usb adapter). Sorry, forgot to specify.
Even slower would still be worth it IMO, digital document management is just so much better than keeping multiple folders of paper organized. Also I can access all my paperwork from anywhere, because the pi and my phone are both in my wireguard VPN network.
About a minute, 1:30 maybe (edit: per page on a pi4). I use an app to upload jpegs though, I don't have a normal scanner at the moment. The higher quality scan and smaller file size may make some steps of the process quicker (no need for alignment and color correction for example) if you use a normal, proper scanner.
It doesn't matter though. When I get home and see I got a letter I scan it and by the time I drank something, put away my clothes and stuff i had with me, the pi is done and I can edit the metadata in the web ui.
You should get a scsi enabled adapter though, otherwise you may have to disable it in the kernel boot settings. And if you forget that it will run at like kbit/s.
Nah, just slow.
But it has a ridiculously big library and is easy to write. A lot of libraries are also written in C, so the slowness drawback doesn't even apply in some cases.
