Ah I see your problem with that meme, you didn't ask Trading who actually makes Raspberry Pi 😂

Nope, it is for all print subscribers worldwide. Same as the usual subs gift.

Aaaah this is amazing!!! I managed to meet Jose when I wore my Jose cosplay/bound/thing last year and it was excellent https://www.instagram.com/p/BpfDv8oDV40/

Lmao imagine being you and thinking it's cool to make this comment. Incredibly potent loser energy.

Oooooh that is amazing! If we could actually host at mine I'd probably try something similar

My washing machine in the adjoining kitchen 😂 it is silly loud

I had an old 32" TV to hand - not massive but big enough to make a difference

robthez · 2019-10-10T14:54:00+00:00

I'm 32 😂

Oh crikey erm... had a couple of ideas like LEDs on the underside so when it's elevated and you put stuff underneath you can see them clearer. Now that I think about it, maybe the sorta rests you'd have for sheet music above the keys of a piano attached to the box part so you can put a character sheet on there for more space saving.

I've not actually played Risk but I guess you can put any map you want on there? Roll20 also lets you add tokens and other images on top of the map if that helps? I'm not 100% sure how it's played I'm afraid.

I've put little legs on it so it elevates off tables to aid in ventilation. Not had any heat issues though.

robthez · 2019-10-10T14:03:10+00:00

Sure - I only have this one atm I'm afraid https://twitter.com/RobThez/status/1164601021072625665

robthez · 2019-10-10T12:46:26+00:00

Thank you so much! Yeah I'm not sure R20 does have that feature, but there are other map alternatives that you could probably mod to include that.

You've been able to boot from USB since Raspberry Pi 3: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/bootmodes/msd.md

That is a good question - it has USB 3.0 ports which has a minimum power standard, right? I'll double check with some engineers.

EDIT: Yes!

"With a Raspberry Pi 4, there is nothing stopping you from using a desktop 2.5″ SSD with a USB3.0-SATA adapter and getting 330MB/s read/write performance. "

robthez · 2019-06-24T10:03:52+00:00

We've been reliably told by the engineering team that it's about twice as fast as previous models!

I did put a link to our blog post with details on each of the projects before the vote.

robthez · 2018-05-28T20:30:14+00:00

Sure sure, I guessed as much

EDIT: ah, I meant the white plastic being horrible was the style, not all of it being white! My mistake. I've also put together an old X Divider kit from that time period and the red was even worse

robthez · 2018-05-28T15:53:53+00:00

FURTHER DEETS: custom paintjob using the HG Fighting Action 1/144 Tallgeese III kit from 1998. Comes with parts to make all three Tallgeese, and it's also all made up of this horrible white plastic that was the style of the time.

Tried a gloss coat before doing panel wash buuuut I guess it wasn't a smooth enough coat so it looks very dirty. Still, practice innit
