Pi3D Tutorial: 3D Graphics with Python

Hello from the US! I was a big fan of Visual Python for making 3D graphics easier to create, but was dismayed that it didn't work on the Pi. Then I found Pi3D, which is even more fun to use than VPython. It's still programmed in Python, but you have complete control over textures, camera position, l...

Not Enough Free Space?

I'm super excited to get Mathematica on my pi, but so far I've been unsuccessful. I have a brand new 16GB SD card with the Google Coder Raspbian image on it and when I tried to install Mathematica I got this message: Need to get 278 MB of archives.
