Many people will disagree with that statement and say they use it all the time and it is fine. They will keep saying that until it isn't fine, and then they'll be in a world of hurt.LOL, So my main desktop a raspberry pi 4 is not serious computing? Or is it that my name server, web server email server which is a raspberry pi 4 not serious computing?They both boot to USB SSDs and only have USB SSD drives, so they are not serious computing? The desktop RPI has an NVME drive as the boot drive connected by you guessed it USB.I learned not to go there a long time ago and have seen plenty of reminders along the way from others' misfortunes to not ever go there again myself.
Well, most of what you attributed to me came from an earlier post. I'd never call a pi4b inadequate. Its running an 11x54 lathe just like a wintel box can. All the other stuff that makes a desktop computer, web browsing, the office suites, web server, you name it, it Just Works. Not as fast, but it works as advertised. And does all that on a 5x5 psu, with an AOC monitors whose label claim it uses 10 watts. I don't even shut them off.
