    True, but I think that tech disparity (of say 15 years) between hobby-grade and consumer-grade hardware is closing, and that the disparity itself becomes less meaningful when you’re still able to do most things with older hardware.

    Hell, my smartphone is 8 years old and runs a light modern OS which still enables me to use modern apps with ease.

    This kid showed what was possible with just 6 months and 5 thousand dollars with today’s hobbyist chips.
    I tremble with excitement when I think of what the next kid tomorrow might do.
