blog! “Adventures in home automation - Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi 2”
They say that The Best Camera Is The One That's With You - the same is true of Raspberries Pi. As much as I'd love a 4B, they seem permanently sold out. So I dug through my scrapheap of old tech and resurrected an ancient Pi2. It's old, outdated, slow, with lim…

Unfortunately I have run out of #raspberrypi, and used my last one for my #octoprint server.
I still have my first and original RaspberryPi 1A, but it is 800MHz and 500MB ram, it just can't do enough anymore and is way too slow for any servers. You can basically only use it for #IOT devices.
@Stark9837 @Edent My Raspberry Pi 1 still runs AirPlay and Spotify without problems. My Raspberry Pi 2 runs TimeMachine and PiHole.
As long as the HW works, I’ll keep using them 
I still want to benchmark it with #Klipper to see how it performs, because #raspberrypi is actually getting quite powerful and could be overkill for Klipper, but then again I want to run a web-server with it for #Moonraker or #Mainsail. So I will have to see.
Otherwise, I think I am just going to use it for my dedicated #MQTT broker, because my MQTT broker is getting a lot of use, but is currently running on my Pi I am using for other stuff. So I would rather want to keep everything more organised and separate. Because it is hindering the upgrades that I want to make on my Pi, as it would interrupt my MQTT services.
