Hey guys, I need a tech advice.
I've never used a RaspberryPi and I would love to host a couple of telegram bots (no hard tasks) or a couple of light websites. The doubt is the following:
is the RaspberryPi Zero enough? Or should i buy a more expensive one?

Please answer seriously, as I said I'm new to RaspberryPi :amogus:

Republicans Are on the Verge of Delivering Putin a Big Christmas Gift (slate.com)

In a tense game of chicken, remarkable for its mix of petulance and audacity, congressional Republicans are threatening to halt U.S. aid to Ukraine—guaranteeing a Russian breakthrough and possible victory in that war—unless Democrats help pass a bill that all but locks down America’s Southern border....

if you really want to change the world, what you need is love, not hatred and force.

gentle persuasion doesn't always work. but i'd feel wrong if i applied force. some things can't be changed. i'm a perfectionist but i realise that being a pain in the ass isn't really going to shift attitudes.

Daniel Görtz: ”If we are not ironic about our goal enough, then it will collapse to fascism”.

This quote is of course out of context, and to fully appreciate i’d check: ”sincere irony” in .

I so much don't wanna pray tomorrow.
But I live in a circle in which doing so will result in so much critisizm and looks I just don't know what to do.

It's not just about tomorrow. it's many days I don't want to, and not only because I'm lazy but because I'm in doubts with my faith.

Argh, I just wish the day where I leave my parents' house is closer than I think.
