Anyone know what to do to make a cyber deck? Do I need a raspberry pi because it would be hard for me to buy one online. Any alternatives?
rpi's are pieces of shitget one of those chinese nuc clones from amazon with a AMD APU in it
>>2983706Use a portable display, a mini PC or thin client, USB hub, power bank and PSU/charger. Do not put holes in the case.
>>2983706>make a cyber deckdefine cyber deck? I mean just put a smart phone as the display and add the faggy keyboard. if you can't get a pi how tf are you going to get the other shit necessary? just use a fucking smart phone you poser ass.
>>2983735unfortunately this
>>2983706what is the usecase for these? just larping as epic haxor? probably an old upgraded Thinkpad X230 is a way better "cyberdeck" as any of these
>>2983773Slightly better than a laptop as they are either smaller or more functional, but really it's being a CYBERHAXXOR
>>2983773it's better to think of it as functional art than a serious computer for regular use
>>2983706Touch typing on this piece of shit is going to hurt, the faggoty minimal keyboard is going to piss you off because you won't be able to keep track of Fn combinations, the monitor is tiny and off center, the counter display is pointless, that tryhard bird logo is an ugly waste of space and raspberries neither have a battery buffered real time clock nor proper onboard storage (well, you do have USB). Also they're ARM which means a lot worse performance than x86. Get a used thinkpad and buy a new one if you do break it. This cyberdeck garbage will end up costing 3 times as much and has exactly zero advantages. And no, the waterproof case does not constitute an advantage because you can easily afford a waterproof laptop case with foam rubber inserts if you go with the used thinkpad option.
>>2983871>Touch typingSir this is 4chan
>>2983773Varies. For the prepper/survivalist types it's something to be filled with zim backups of Wikipedia and discussion boards/forums, survival guides, botanical field guides, med books, a pharmaceutical/pill identification book, an Uglys reference, Haynes manuals, equipment operator manuals, yadda yadda. You can faraday it then, after that big RaHoWa/WROL/whatever settles down, you've ostensibly got the data to get humanity back on track. So long as it survives you've got the guidebook for agriculture, construction, progression of industry, fuel refining and power generation. Whatever techniques, trade secrets and trash you thought to cram in the space available. The built-in switch means that, wherever you find others with surviving equipment, you can easily share that data and further ensure knowledge isn't lost. Or you get popped for it by some starving asshole who promptly smashes it to bits out of frustration when they realize your case wasn't full of Twinkies, Slim Jims, meds or anything else to alleviate their immediate needs.tldr it's for collecting dust or maybe trading rare pepes during the end times
>>2983925AI slop reply All of these things can be done with a regular laptop. There's nothing wrong with making a cyberdeck. They are coolBut they are a larp in 99% of use cases.
>>2983925Why don't you keep this info in your brain?
>>2983871This. What a completely reddit subculture.
