Where Do I start with Raspberry Pi
I want to get into Raspberry Pi but I have no idea where to start how to learn. I am looking for beginners projects videos that are step by step. But if you have something else that could help let me know.

A cozy home Minecraft Server for just you and your significant other is a nice bonding experience and a good use for a Pi 4 or 5.

Piholes are becoming more important as many "smart" devices are outright user-hostile.

Raspberry pie.

Ingredients

1 (14.1 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed

4 cups raspberries

1 cup white sugar

2 ½ tablespoons tapioca

1 tablespoon lemon juice

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

⅛ teaspoon salt

4 teaspoons butter

1 tablespoon half-and-half cream

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate with one pie crust.

Mix raspberries, sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl until raspberries are well coated; pour into pie crust and dot with butter.

Cover filling with remaining pie crust; flute edges to seal. Brush cream on top, then cut several slits to allow steam to escape.

Bake pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbly, about 30 to 35 minutes more. Allow pie to cool completely before serving.

Sorry couldn't help it.

No Fish-shaped volatile organic compounds and sediment-shaped sediment or
Candy-coated peanut butter pieces (shaped like fish)?

Start off hooking a keyboard, mouse, and display to the board. Take a MicroSD card and use Raspberry Pi Imager to write an operating system to it. Plug the card into the board, then attach a suitable USB power supply to the board. Wait a couple minutes for Raspberry Pi OS to finish installing, then follow the instructions to get to a desktop.

Pi-Hole is perfectly fine on a Pi 3B. Minecraft server you might need the 4GB or better yet 8GB Pi 4 or 5.

Seriously, the official Debian distro for Pis comes preloaded with .pdf manuals and example projects, as well as physical guides for purchase.

I'm not sure why they changed the name from "Raspian," though.

Thank yall for the help

OP are you aware there is an entire Steam discussion board called "Hardware and Operating Systems" ?
You will probably have better luck with your questions there.

Likely they changed the name because the Raspberry Pi specific parts made it legally distinct. By the way, it's now called Raspberry Pi OS.

If you have a CRT TV there's a build of Lakka that can output 240p like the old consoles. Pi 5 has better picture quality than 3 and 4 but requires soldering an adapter to the board to output composite video and using a USB sound card for audio.

my favorite is nintendo so it wouldnt be that hard to emulate. but isnt a crt tv expensive now? or was that the one thats no longer in production? im sure there are ways with settings you can make it look older if you wanted with hdmi

The model Pi4B does HDMI output just fine. Though it lags a little above 1920x1080 if you're trying to emulate the PSP or later.

honestly for the harder to emulate ones i wouldnt mind doing a lower res and fps. i mean its a rpi after all
