Title says most of it. Spin electric scooters exited the Seattle market and abandoned their scooters all over the city and apparently they have a pi 4 in them!

    It’s not just that. If the Pi Foundation has to make a choice between fulfilling an order for 100 pis for a company so that the company can keep making products and meeting payroll vs. 100 hobbyists that want to make their own one-off project, which is the more moral use of resources?

    Yeah, those companies should probably not have chosen a pi board to power their products but that’s only noticeable in hindsight.

        It’s amazing to me that there isn’t anything comparable to a fanlinc or keypad linc. RIP in peace insteon
