The bumper seems nice.

I've gone SSD on my Raspberry PI and not looking back, but I guess for student applications, the SD Cards are nice: https://x.com/benhouston3d/status/1749255041842647499

Haha I don't understand these. I just bought a refurbished PC with 16GB ram for $40.

Raspberry pi zero 2w makes sense for things like turning your old printer wireless but these other expensive pis don't make sense to me at all

Well the raspberry pi original/primary use case is to be a development platform.

That it could also be used as a cheap small server is just a testament to the versatility of rpi.

I've been hoping for something like the bumper case for a while now. Awesome to see.

Are Pi’s viable as Roku type devices? (Jellyfin/Plex @4k, streaming and local playback)

Not quite in my experience. You can pick up an N100 based computer on amazon for $100-$150 that works really well though.
