I’m not super into the whole sphere here. But as you mentioned the Pi I thought I might chime in. I just ordered a Pi 5, 8GB RAM and 2-3x effective speed of the Pi 4.

I’d youre looking for more powerful hardware in this format the Rockx 5 and Orange Pi 5 are alternatives that go up to 16GB RAM.

I’ve made french fries in a deep fryer and those arent comparable to oven made ones. Have to try air frying and taste the difference!

Me and my fiancee got an airfryer, I have no clue what recipes could be good in one of those but I’m eager to test it out!
