It was about 2 years ago that Jilles reminded me I had a flight case with gadgets too.
Back when I assembled it in 2018, I had big plans for showing private “cloud” container experimentation and gadget stuff at conferences. Then 2019 kicked in with rectum cancer.
So it was good that he helped me motivating to get it working again, especially as the time around assembling it so much fun and working on it brought back those days.
Here are the pictures:

The concept North Pi created for Computex 2024 is now available to download as 3D-print files
- [Wayback] 3D Print Files
- [Wayback/Archive] Instrunctions [Wayback PDF View/PDF View]
Required hardware
- 3D Printer or access to 3D printing service.
- Screws:
- 13 x M2.5 threaded inserts, outer diameter 3.5 mm (other diameter will require altering the holes for the inserts) + tools for inserting them.
- 9 x M2.5×4 (-6) for case assembly.
- 4 x M2.5×4 (-6) or stand-offs for motherboard assembly.
- Screwdriver.
- Glue.
Optional hardware
- File or sanding paper for cleaning up print.
- Wood strips (for authentic look) and shaping tools for those
- 2 x 40 mm fans (max 10 mm thick). Check the documentation of your specific SBC on what voltage to use.
- Paint and paintbrush/airbrush.
This was after a few other people recreated Pi cased in the style of the North Pi:

Sometimes you need a relatively low-tech solution for updating.
I will need to give this some thought: [Wayback/Archive] Poor Man’s Auto Update. by Chris Bensen | by Chris Bensen | Jun, 2022 | Medium
Back then I posted some edits on Twitter which by now should be reflected in the script and GitHub repository at [Wayback/Archive] chris-blogs/PoorManAutoUpdate.md at main · chrisbensen/chris-blogs (with script at [Wayback/Archive] chris-blogs/updater.sh at main · chrisbensen/chris-blogs)

Another thing to try: [Wayback/Archive] makerbymistake on Twitter: “Can’t help myself and have to post more pics of this thing. Cheers to @Raspberry_Pi for providing great documentation on how to make a #CM4 carrier board. Thanks to so many folks that shared their designs also. So many more ideas in my head, so little time.”

If you ever need a large bunch of Mac minis in a data center, then start reading at [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – Uptime-Lab/KVM-rack-stand-for-16-Mac-minis.
The repository by Ivan Kuleshov has all information you need, including scripts for Pi-KVM, and 3D printing STL source files.
It was covered in [Wayback/Archive] The MagPi issue 139 — The MagPi magazine (direct [Wayback/Archive] MagPi139.pdf; it’s too large for [Wayback] Goole Docs on-line viewing).

[Wayback/Archive] Raspberry Pi And The Story Of SD Card Corruption | Hackaday is long and worth reading.
For me the most important bits are how to prevent SD card wear:
The first is always a good idea. It is the primary reason all our electronics live behind a UPS:
In addition, I posted my personal experience (Samsung microSD cards last way longer than SanDisk cards) on Twitter:
[Wayback/Archive] @hackaday I’m have been running a few Raspberry Pi systems with 8-32Gb micro-SD cards as web-dashboard with refreshes every few minutes or so: much write access. When using Sandisk (no matter the type) they last about a year, Samsung (no matter the type) cards last multiple years.

We had a lightning strike in the evening on 20181111 some 50 meters from our home.
It killed immediately killed this (some pictures further below):

Some links on the unexpected turn of events after [Archive] Jeff Geerling (@geerlingguy) / Twitter posted
First his site got more traffic because of the post, then within an hour traffic exploded because of a DDoS overflowing both his Raspberry Pi cluster and his mobile data capacity.
Jeff will likely do blog posts on these and update the underlying GitHub repository at [Wayback/Archive] geerlingguy/turing-pi-2-cluster: Turing Pi 2 Cluster , but until then (since his Tweets were not threaded), this is what happened on 20220209 as it taught me a few bits:

Oracle’s Pi Supercomputer ; click on the image for a larger version.
In 2019 ans 2020, [Archive] Chris Bensen and his [Archive] Oracle Groundbreakers team built a really large Raspberry Pi cluster of more than 1k pies, all network booting to become a cluster. It was for instance covered in the [Wayback/Archive] Building the World’s Largest Raspberry Pi Cluster – DZone IoT.
On his [Wayback/Archive] personal blog, he wrote a few posts like [Wayback/Archive] Chris Bensen: Raspberry Pi Overlay Root Filesystem and [Wayback/Archive] Chris Bensen: Get MAC Address for a Pi Cluster.
It made me also bump into [Wayback/Archive] Building the world’s largest Raspberry Pi cluster early 2020,
Since that wast right after the start of my rectum cancer treatment which lasted longer and, because of I got metastases a few months after radiation treatment, required more treatments than anticipated, I put a note in my bog drafts and kind of lost track.
So I was glad that in fall 2021, I bumped into the draft and found an almost year old post [Wayback/Archive] Chris Bensen: All Raspberry Pi Super Computer Posts in One Spot which is an index in all the blog posts and videos that Chris and his team produced on this project.
I then also learned the cluster had been shown on [Wayback/Archive] Oracle OpenWorld 2019, Breakthrough Starts Here and was covered in the [Archive] Top 10 Raspberry Pi Projects of 2019 | Tom’s Hardware (where I got the [Wayback/Archive] Oracle World 2019 having the 1k+ node Raspberry Pi cluster on display picture shown on the right from).
