so.. a cpu from 2015 and still shit memory for bad performances oh, and load of paid fanboyz to advertise this scam
Jeez don't buy it if you don't like it. What do you want for $30 anyway ? Don't post some obscure board from Alibaba.

#102Gigabit Ethernet? I'm tempted to grab a few and try running Pi-Hole for my whole organization (~1200 users) and see how that goes. :) I know you can set up Pi-Hole on Ubuntu VMs. But there's something so attractive to me about running it separate from your hypervisors and closer to the core switch on very very cheap hardware.... Been curious about Pi-Hole on my bigger work scale for a while, this may very well tip me…
Yeah, for the first time it's true gigabit. Results from iperf:
Raspberry Pi 3B: 94Mb/s Raspberry Pi 3B+: 285Mb/s Raspberry Pi 4B: 930Mb/s

#103> 4K! I'm very excited about these upgrades too (especially GigE), but as far as I can tell nothing on this news page specifies whether the Pi will also support HDR output as part of the 4K upgrade. That's most of the practical benefit of 4K - that 4K releases tend to come with HDR10 or DolbyVision support. Anyone know if we can expect HDR output to work? If I knew it supported that I'd be purchasing one right now to…
The Raspberry Pi 4 B uses ARM VideoCore IV. As far as I can find HDR will only come in the updoming VideoCore V.
So no. No HDR yet.

#104Have rpi fixed the interference of usb3.0 with WiFi? It's going to be really problematic for raspi

#105I'm most excited about the modern A72 cores, upgraded hardware decode, and up to 4 GB RAM. They really listened and delivered what most people wanted in a next gen RPi.

#106>Are you still using VideoCore? >Yes. VideoCore 3D is the only publicly documented 3D graphics core for ARM‑based SoCs, and we want to make Raspberry Pi more open over time, not less. This stated intention and rpi.org's actions are simply not isomorphic. If they want to make Raspberry Pi more open, firstly, why do they publish only abridged (read: fake) schematics? [1] Secondly, why was rpi.org caught adding DRM chip…
Citing the part with the VideoCore is just fully nonsensical. The Raspberry Pi is the only SBC out there with a fully open-source, production-level graphics driver.

#107No normal sized HDMI sucks, I don't want to buy another adapter, aside from that this looks really cool, can't wait to get one
C'mon, a mini-hdmi hdmi cable is 50kr ($5), surely you can just buy one and be done with it, no adapter needed. https://www.netonnet.se/art/ljud-och-bild/kablar/hdmi-kablar...
You make it sound like they are being unreasonable, but just like USB-Micro to USB-C and X to headphone jack, it's a huge inconvenience when you can't find/don't have it to hand.
I used to lose the Micro to C adapters all the time, I lost the C to headphone for my OnePlus6T while travelling and was unable to find a replacement so no headphone use for me.
Also, I have about 12 Raspberry Pis, as many display devices, a dozen or so other HDMI devices such as consoles etc, and tens of normal sized HDMI cables lying around and they're all compatible.

#108Earlier quoted context omitted.
Counter hypothesis because I can’t be bothered to research it fully: Pi: “Hello we wish to buy a $thing” Vendor: “Certainly. We sell $thing for ten dollars per unit if it doesn’t have DRM, or five dollars per unit if it does.”
The camera PCB was made by rpi for specific use with the rpi. The DRM chip is not part of the camera vendor's assembly. It is a separate chip placed on the PCB, therefore placed there by the PCB designer, i.e., by rpi.

There's even a kernel driver for the CSI receiver, which we paid for ((link: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9951525/) patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9951525/). What you can't do is clone the official v2 camera module and use the default ISP tuning, which we also paid for.

Personally I have no problem at all with protecting the investments around add-ons like this module, if it means they continue to persue them.

The cheapest maybe, but don't I need to watch for specs and DRM features and everything?
HDMI to micro-HDMI is just a straight passive adapter - only the physical shape of the port is different, and feature support isn’t really a thing. In this case it’s obviously done because the HDMI connector is annoyingly bulky if you want two of them, though I’m surprised a stacked connector wasn’t a better option.

Why do people tend to dismiss the openness of the RasperryPi with completely unrelated things? This is the classic case of Whataboutism[0].
Just because you can't replicate the entire product in your garage, it doesn't mean that it isn't quite open already.
