My Actifit Report Card: July 30 2025 - My New Raspberry Pi 5
Today I set up a Raspberry Pi 5 that arrived from Amazon a few days ago. I run my Hive bots on it, as well as some @metarobots and @pepegame functionality. The Pi line of small computers are low power consuming which I like since they are on 24/7.
I got the Raspberry Pi made by canakits. I bought my Raspberry Pi 4 from them, which has been running flawlessly for several years now. But the Pi has been out a while and I wanted a backup for the 4, so I got the 5. The new 5 may become my main bot runner and I'll keep the 4 as a backup. I started with a Pi 3 but when I wanted to run several bots in tabs of the browser, the computer slowed down. The 4 has been great but the is only a few dollars more, and it is bigger, better, faster in a few ways that ChatGPT can tell you about with a simple query!
So I paid $136 for this canakit Raspberry Pi 5, but maybe it was on sale because now I see it on Amazon for $160. Actually maybe that's why I bought the now, since I had been looking at them, and maybe the last time I looked they had the sale. I really don't recall!
In any case, you get a kit, which you can put together in like 10 minutes. When you open the box, you see a card that directs you to canakit.com/pi-case where you see an embedded YouTube video that shows you what to do. I'll embed it here! Maybe you'll become interested in owning one of these small but powerful computers.

If you want one, here's the link to it on Amazon. There might be an affiliate code in this link. I was once an Amazon affiliate via my work, maybe I still am, not sure. So I'll give the disclaimer that I may get a commission if you use this link.
Here's a screenshot of the pic at Amazon, showing you what you get and have to put together. It's basically plugging the fan onto the board, adding a heatsink, putting everything in the case, and plugging your keyboard, mouse, monitor and power into the thing. Easy!

Have you ever owned a Raspberry Pi or any similar tiny/small computer?
My Activity
today was a few family tasks and building the Pi! Oh, I did get it all set up and it works great!
At night I took a walk in 80 degree Fahrenheit weather and high humidity. I went almost an average length but as I thought about going farther, the heat started to get to me so I ended it. The moon was out! Not high in the sky though, and only about a quarter or so. Still nice to see our shared orbiting neighbor!
Have a Nice Day!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Raspberry Pi's are interesting! You are right-their electrical usage is minimal.
Good job with your 6142 @actifit steps for the day. Take care!
Thanks! I got the Pi working in a really short amount of time. Easy to build and set up!
You are most welcome! Take care!
That's awesome on the raspberry Pi set!👍😄 let us know how it works out!!
Excellent 6K plus @actifit steps today!🤗
It worked out great! And I just edited my post with more details. I write a little of my actifit posts on my phone but it's a pain. So then I send it and go to the laptop and edit it with PeakD, which I just finished doing. :)
Ya, 6K is a lil below my average but on a hot summer day it's all I had in me, but thanks for the kudos for it!
We had picked up a raspberry Pi several years ago for an ARRR Pirate node. unfortunately it was defective and we didn’t follow through and bought a different computer.
Glad to hear it’s doing very well for you, my friend!
Maybe we’ll pick up a raspberry Pi in the future!😇😊
I don't have this nor ever tried it but it seems a very interesting concept, small and easy to setup, I wonder if it works well for gaming
That is a very cool upgrade, especially for running stuff 24 7. Infact just having it a home makes you look professional. I might have to look into getting one myself soon.
