I was annoyed by this the other day. Just swapped motherboards in a server machine in my house and I had to find a mouse to quickly navigate the bios.
I could have done it with the keyboard, sure, but I weighed the amount of time to fumble vs the time to dig through a drawer.
Pihole is great, little hardware projects are fun (touchscreen calendar in the kitchen). They also make great emulators for old systems if you want to install a gaming oriented OS like retropie or lakka and get a gamepad or two.
I personally wouldn’t use it for a server, but it’s a good learning environment to figure out how to run services.
The beauty of the pi is it is an SD card swap away from doing a different job. You can buy a few fast cheap 16-32gb SD cards and play around with different options and operating systems.
Or you can do what I do: get it all set up, shut it down, and forget it exists until you have some wild idea.

3·1 month agoI’m grinding through this one now. The graphics are great, and the game does feel like a modern doom, but the fun does seem to be lacking.
I’ll finish it, but don’t think I’d replay it.
This is a common sentiment but I was surprised when I went to Lowe’s last week and it was all Christmas. I didn’t see any Halloween decorations.
The key is to breathe in the microplastics deeply.
Yes, if you stay at a dysfunctional company for five years, and everyone more competent left: Steve in sales will address you as the senior engineer at the start of the call.
