after years of euphoric hyperreality, web 2.0 arrived at its conclusions, and i feel a growing sense of dread at the sheer amount of context that must be carried forward

millennial nostalgia is so incredibly fraught, yet i instinctively wish to capture what remains of its ideals

it's more a slightly faster raspi3 with MCU coprocessor. 4x Cortex-A53 @ 2GHz, Audio DSP, GPU w/ h264 encode/decode, 2x CSI camera input, BT/Wi-Fi radio. all fairly bread and butter for qcom, but $44 is decent pricing if you have a usecase for it
