It’s weird because all these things can be done with other (better) hardware. The supply chain issues of high-performance semiconductors makes sense to me because there is no alternative. If the price is going up, it really demonstrates the sheer indifference to price people have when it comes to low-cost computing. That is, the value of an RP is in its package and not its price.

I really hope it’s not ignorance instead of indifference. Building a computer, even a tiny one, is not hard.
