So i went to a focus group purely to provide feedback, now i have a 75 dollar giftcard which i have to select and withdraw but im not sure what to put the money towards? my older brother also got one. Yes i live with parents so most of my living needs are already covered.
What would be the smart thing to do here? what would you suggest and why so?


What are your hobbies?
gaming, building computers, rpgs such as dnd, mild card collecting.
And a person with THOSE hobbies is on Lemmy??? Well I for one am shocked. SHOCKED I SAY!!!
…not that shocked actually. Next you’ll tell us your linux distro, and a fight will ensue over which distro you should switch to.
I’d suggest taking a look at what roll20 has to offer if you want to play virtually with your friends.
If the rasp Pi is too much (per your other comment), you might have fun with a few esp32s and some basic sensors if you want to get into the embedded electronic space. The entry price is lower then the rasp.
Do you have a 3D printer? $75 won’t buy one in full, but it can help get a decent entry-level one like an Ender 3 V3 SE. If you already have one, maybe some filament.
Also, a Raspberry Pi can be used for some nice things. I love my Home Assistant setup, for example!
I do have a 3d printer but i may want a second one someday?
Also what model or single board computer do you suggest, i ask because pi’s have gone up in price i believe to to the ram inflation? atleast from what i saw on amazon. What projects are good to do with single board computers?
I’ve got 4 Pis in my house right now:
I’m also looking at making one of these (put a few parts on the Christmas list 😀 ) https://github.com/fatihak/InkyPi
