It's got to a point now where automatic bots trying to snag Pi 4 units for scalping/reselling is so bad that as an experiment we listed 20 units for sale at 8:32pm and manually reviewed and cancelled (returning to stock) any orders that were obviously scalpers... 1/n
Incredibly, we just took the 500,000th order on our retail shop - that's *half a million* orders we've picked, packed, supported and shipped over the last nine years - phew! Thanks so much to everybody who's supported our little boat over the years and helped us get this far 🚣♀️
Raspberry Pi all the way down. We’ve automated counting and packing of nuts and bolts for our Fan SHIM using vibratory feeders, break-beam sensors, our Automation HAT, a bag sealer machine, and carefully honed pieces of cardboard and rubber bands.
Aaaaaand here we go! 🎉
