Sweden is completely different to the USA though, as the salaries are a different order of magnitude.

Like programming is barely a high-status career in Europe - you're better off being an estate agent, lawyer or senior civil servant.

It sucks they do it to families like this - as they are actual refugees. It's bizarre they let the young men in who just turn up, but then are blocking women and children.

Germany, progressive? Have you ever lived there? I'm amazed they even use web browsers enough to notice now, compared to their fax machines.

I'd learn Mandarin but it's very hard.

I learnt Spanish and use it every day, it is easy.

Tears of the Kingdom is one of the best games ever made, shame they keep it exclusive though.

Yeah, the Pi moving to full computer thing is weird because the SD card is still a massive bottleneck on normal day-to-day usage.

Will you use a separate flight controller chip or try to do it all on board?

It's been a while but I remember Orange Pi having terrible support? I haven't heard of the others.

Whereas the RPi has the amazing compute module if you need it too.

Sometimes paying more is better.

Discord. I mostly post in an Ultima 7 modding community and helped out a bit but we also just talk about video games and stuff.

It's hard to find the smaller servers where you can actually have a decent discussion though, just like IRC back in the day.

What are the better options?

Pis have great software support so for GPIO experimentation it's so useful.

Ocarina of Time - it was mindblowing to have the open world at the time (I didn't play Ultima 7 until much later) and the music is incredible.

Rainbow Six Vegas and Splinter Cell Blacklist and Chaos Theory were awesome for this - especially for 2 people.

If you have 4 then SWAT 4, Ready Or Not, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, ARMA 3.
