#220 Buying Raspberry Pis

After at least half a year of searching, I finally have my hands on a Raspberry Pi Computer Module 4.

How do you get Raspberry Pis if you don't have friends like @jjzhiyuan, who was kind enough to buy and ship it to me from Wuhan?

If you include customs fees and GST, this might be the most anyone has paid for a Raspberry Pi. pic.twitter.com/ZFUkcBsjBO

I have been tinkering around with the CM4 module for the last two days, and I will have some cool projects to share soon.

I found a couple of interesting blogs today:

Gwern Branwen's Essays
Ribbonfarm
Melting Asphalt

I also changed the color scheme of this website to be darker. It gives a “lights out” vibe, which I really like.
