Not sure why anyone would want to use a browser (of any ilk) on any RPi short of a 4B with a minimum of 2G memory. I gave up on browsing with my 3B which froze on more than 2 tabs open In my experience from the RPi3 and RPi3+ onwards, browsing in either Chromium or Firefox-esr is fine AS LONG as yo...

The poster above you might have figured this out for me. Will report back tomorrow after I finish feeling dumb
I doubt there are many people here who haven't had one of these moments at one time or another

Jeezz, don't get me started!

It most likely is possible to compile an old PHP version yourself in a RPi and set it up to work on Buster with your web server of choice, but have you tried/examined how your project would run on 7? Years ago I found that it was a case of replace some mysql code and a couple of function calls, bare...

That makes a lot of assumptions. As does you comment. Britain isn't a small country that's been helped up the economic ladder by its elders and betters. It's one of the bigger economies in its own right, and the EU wants to keep trading with Britain. And then there's the rest of the world, which is...

Do you have another SD card to try it with? Make sure you write the image to the card and not just a partition and try again. If that does not do it, you might have a dud. I never had that problem with the 20 odd RPi's I bought, but of course it is possible.

Static IP didn't work at all.

That is odd. It should at least work as good or bad as with an assigned IP address.

Do you have more machines on your network you could ping?

Could forcing/setting the resolution in config.txt work? Set a custom mode to the resolution you want and then try again?

UK leaving EU is not until 1st Jan 2021 so duties and tariffs have not been negotiated and the exchange will likely be different, so it is just pi in the sky assumptions.. The transition period is objectively not the same as still being a member. While until next year the UK still follows EU regula...

So really, the short answer is that it is rather unlikely to happen, especially in light of known previous efforts that have not done well. I hope you are right as I am not really waiting to switch to another platform for my business, but educational goals aside, the bottom line remains the bottom ...

No one can clone a Zero as it is impossible to buy the SoCs. I does not have to be a direct clone. If it has similar functionality and runs Linux, it will be fine. It's not the only SoC on the market, nor it is impossible for another party to design and tape out another SoC. This is not a product t...

It could slowly change for various reasons. But at first it will remain the same because all EU regulations are still in effect during the "transition" phase, including those that the UK can now not vote on any more. The biggest cost short term would be imported components. Without the EU ...

Sound like a cool project. But the answer to your question depends on a couple of things. The first thing that comes to mind is how it will be transported to the ISS. Will it ride in a pressurized controlled environment like a Dragon capsule or will it ride in the Dragons trunk? I imagine that some ...

Those specs are wrong. Wrong chip, wrong amount of memory and where did they hide the ethernet port exactly? I think they slapped the specs of a RPi 2B on there page for the Pi Zero. Very sloppy!! So I would not recommend to buy from webshops that are sloppy because who knows what other things they ...

Does it work at all? When the KVM is set to the RPi and it boots, do the keyboard and mouse work then? Or does it stop working after you switched to the mac and back again?

In essence, a VPN is a glorified proxy server. It is not magic! It does sprinkle fairy privacy protection dust over your devices, it is just a data tunnel with added client-service encryption. Does it protect you? That very much depends! There are various good reasons to run your own VPN just as the...

I’m not sure if this helps at all. But does my project make any more sense? No! It actually does not! I still have got no clue what type of USB devices you are using. I do not know the drivers issues, the interface software or the methods you are using in this project or why you are assuming proble...

You can't just write something pretty in Python or Java that resembles some old arcade machine or console and expect a magic compiler to turn it into an executable ROM image for that system. If you want to write for those systems 6502, Z80 or 68K whatever, you have to actually code FOR those machine...

Technically this should not be a problem. Regardless of the number of ports USB is enumerated on various levels where you can distinguish unique devices. A quality USB hub is your only option it would seem. Unfortunately you have not really given enough information about said devices to advice what ...

I was once trying to get to sleep in a bedroom, in a house, in Chelmsford, Essex, England. Ow yeah. I hear Chelmsford, Essex, England is famous for the abundance of massively big and hairy arachnids. Could be global warming or brexit, nobody knows. Good thing you did not flatten it, I have it on go...

Yes. SSH can work without the intarwebs or wifi. You'll be limited to accessing ssh only locally from the machine you want to access. If you want to use SSH from another machine that exists on your network, you must connect the machine to your wifi or ethernet port on your router. You can access the...

This forum makes no sense at all.

Until you get a good power supply.

And never cut the power whilst you are booted up. That often leads to a miserable life.

I will try that, still not sure about the spiders though...

Timescale

Common advice here is that if you want everything to work out you must ensure you have a good power supply. If your supply is drooping it will lead to problems.

I got two Chinese hamsters on treadmills. Double redundancy so that clearly is not the problem!

Are you old enough to have a driving licence? (Not that that stopped me. I drove my mum's car when I was 10 on private land). Why do you keep going on about the socio-political acceptance of gender dysphoria in arthropods? This forum makes no sense at all! All I wanted to know is why IF an SD card ...

Timescale

Wow Timrowledge.. Easy on the techomological jargon! I'm just a guy with insanely unrealistic expectation of the capabilities of a platform that is apparently extremely well documented or so I hear. I have learned more about spiders and gender attribution in this topic that I wished I did not need t...

Typical, isn't it? Somehow it always ends up like this! After a completely reasonable question, painstakingly not obfuscated with context or details, instead of actually producing a meaningful concrete answer that would probably be in the top 3 results of any search engine given any semi-topical que...
