New Article on Medium: Simple BoardCheck for Raspberry Pi







If your Raspberry Pi is acting up, you don’t have to chase down command-line snippets anymore. Our new script, simple-boardcheck-pi.sh, runs a quick system health check and logs everything to a timestamped file.

No installs. No Python. No clutter.

This lightweight Bash script checks your microSD performance, power supply health, mount status, temperature, and more—all from one clean menu screen.

We just posted the full article on Medium:

👉 Simple BoardCheck for Raspberry Pi: Fast, Clear Diagnostics in One Script

The tool itself is here on GitHub Gist:

🔗 simple-boardcheck-pi.sh

This is the first in our BoardCheck series. More Pi, Debian, and Ubuntu tools coming soon.

  Running AI Models on Raspberry Pi 5 (8GB RAM): What Works and What Doesn't The Raspberry Pi 5, with its upgraded processing power and 8GB RAM option, brings new possibilities for running AI models at the edge. While it remains a low-power alternative to high-end GPUs, the improvements over previous models make it an intriguing choice for machine learning projects. However, not all AI models run smoothly on the Pi 5, and understanding its strengths and limitations is key to making the right deployment decisions. The Raspberry Pi 5 as an AI Workhorse? At first glance, the Raspberry Pi 5's quad-core Cortex-A76 processor, clocked at 2.4 GHz, seems like a step toward AI workloads. Paired with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM, it offers a substantial improvement in memory bandwidth and processing efficiency compared to its predecessors. But raw specs only tell part of the story. AI models demand specialized hardware acceleration, and while the Pi 5 can handle some tasks, complex deep learning mo...
