Managing a non-graphical user interface operating system like DietPi or Raspberry Pi OS Lite has its fair share of advantages. You can conserve system resources and allocate them to an app or service that uses them better. I converted my Raspberry Pi Zero 2W into a downloading device sometime back, which was wonderful. But I always miss the fluidity of managing files via a File Explorer app instead of using a terminal for everything.

Microsoft Edge has been testing a new “Copilot mode” that replaces the current New Tab Page with a Copilot-powered compose box. This lets you switch between the Bing search and Copilot search.

Putting a spare SBC to repurpose an old device has always been a joy for me. I have an old monitor that doesn't fit into my current setup, but can still serve as an excellent wall-mounted gaming station. Once the repainting finishes, I intend to put it in a corner of my drawing room. I also thought of building a simple retro gaming corner in my house where I, or my niece, can play some old but good games in my spare time.
