RPi variant, if you like DIY homebrew and your project requires the processing power higher than a conventional RPi. The other 2 I haven't tried myself. Probably save it, at risk of sounding like a party-pooper. Unless you absolutely have to spend it.

I would like, if I got a Raspberry Pi variant, to turn it into an emulation machine. But I can already tell that I'm gonna want to do GameCube emulation so that's the only reason why I'm iffy on it.

tbf, when I was 15, I drank in the park quite a bit so perhaps it's time for a bad advice meme or something.

 

Spoilers: I got arrested for drunken and disorderly twice. Don't do alcohol kids.

Laptops are a motherfucker. Also, I'm fine with a 64GB flash drive.

Something about GameCube that makes it hard to emulate? Not really informed in that side of things.

slaying dragons isn't the hardcore life :^

Pretty much the hardest machine to emulate that's emulatable on the ARM side of things.

Hm, I bet I could make it work. In all actuality probably not.

Lattepanda? Like a RPI but an x64 processor, USB 3, WiFi, and storage built in. It's also $80 exactly.

You know what's easier than buying and building a brand new PC? Petty larceny!
If you're worried about getting caught, here's a trick: Only steal one part at a time. Plenty of people will call the cops because somebody stole their computer -- nobody calls the cops because they're "pretty sure the dirty-bathrobe guy from next door jacked my heat sink."

Imma get one of those but the enhanced version ;)

 

@Dan Castellaneta it's an Intel Atom, so no ARM to worry aboot

 

EDIT: It's a more expensive, but also better RPi if you want to think of it that way, and it comes with Win10 preinstalled, so free license if you ever need one ;)

I was about to buy it but the next day the kickstarter ended and I just yelled "aw fuck!" but I'm gonna buy it day one probably and use it as some sort of server.
