Its been a mad couple of weeks at work but in a quest to skill up while on the road, I found this very cool Udemy course from the guys over at Pinata Consulting, its a beginners course covering Python and focuses on data science use cases (fear not, its not hardcore data science, if it were my brain would have melted). This is the course on Udemy https://www.udemy.com/course/pinata-intro-to-python/ and taken from the course site it covers the following over 12 lectures (01:45:03 run time) How to get up and running…

Pi 4 Cooling Case + Better Thermal Tape

Techun.Limited

Afternoon, Well my pi 4 (4GB RAM) has been getting little attention seeing as Libreelec is not 100% stable for it but for work I was able to use it for a product that we sell (product needs a vm to run a java app to scan files and this is usually a VM) I was using a hacked pi 3 case as I had plenty around but as everyone knows (unless you are in bunker planning on Nuking Mars) the new Raspberry Pi 4 runs *Very* Warm. I tried…

Not so, after failing at every turn I narrowed down the issue to it being the ports I wanted open and passed not…
