The Life of Pi: Ten Years of Raspberry Pi

Funnily enough, as of 2022 I've been finding it impossible to get Raspberry Pis. I suppose it's due to shortages.. I'm in Canada and everywhere is sold out, when checking the US it's sold out, the UK too, etc. Couple resellers price-gouging at 4-5x prices do exist though.

Here's to 10 more years of Pis, preferably with availability too!

It's nuts; they're 3-4x MSRP on the secondary market ($70 for Zero2's, $200+ for 4b's). I just broke down and ordered some competitor SBCs (OrangePi's via AliExpress).

If you want to pay four times the price for them yes. Or just wait for Q4 when they'll probably ramp up production to meet demand.

There are many Armbian supported devices[0] which make great alternatives.
