What module should I get for measuring temperature and humidity?
I'm doing a project with Raspberry Pi Pico and I need a reliable temperature and humidity monitor module, I've so far only used DHT11 which failed me twice. Any suggestions? I've heard AHT2x is decent but does that mean like AHT20 and AHT21? Appreciate any suggestions!

RPi Connect Screen Sharing Unavailable
I'm running RPi OS Bookworm 32-bit on Pi Zero 2W and connecting via ssh. The option to screen share does not show up on the connect.raspberrypi.com site. When I ran rpi-connect vnc on it output x Screen sharing support is unavailable. When I run rpi-connect status on the Zero, it shows this output:
Signed in: yes Screen sharing: unavailable Remote shell: allowed (0 sessions active)I have heard it might be something about Connect not finding wayland, but I haven't found out what to do. Any help would be appreciated!

How to stop brute force!
Someone has been trying to brute force into our Pi for a WHILE now non-stop. Each second they're trying new combination of user and password.
We're using port-forwarding so it always shows the router ip..
We wanted to set up a system that will ban the ip if it gets to a specific number of failed log-ins (caused from wrong password).
(Either that or just block him generally), But we couldn't manage to set it up correctly.
Is there maybe a program or config that can help with this?

Need help picking a relay to open garden gates with pi pico w
Hi,
I apologise in advance for my lack of knowledge when it comes to electrical components.
I want to make my electric gates controllable via a raspberry pi and home assistant, but I struggle to understand the limitations. They currently open using a remote, there is no way to open them otherwise in the current configuration.
This is the controller for the gates:
https://v2uk.co.uk/product/flexy2-230v-analogue-control-unit/
On the page i see the following info about the accessory connections:
230v power supply for 2 single phase motors
Max accessories load 24V 3W

Pico not connecting
Hey all, found you guys after doing some googling and not being able to fix my issue with the help available online.
I just bought 2 picos, but they didn't connect with any of the micro-USB cables I had. Seeing that there was often a problem with non-data cables, I bought one online that had all 4 wires and some comments from people saying they used it with their raspberry pis.
Got the "connecting" blip for the first time, file explorer pops up, and I see the data for about 10 seconds... then it dc's again and now nothing. I've tried a few ports on my desktop and it's just silent again. Diskpart doesn't show them.
Any help appreciated, thanks!

new pi5 no hdmi no green light
I got a pi5 yesterday, with the official power supply. When I plug it in the red led comes on and flashes once, pauses and then quickly flashes twice. Green led has not turned on. There is no hdmi output, active cooler fan does not turn on. Added hdmi_force_hotplug=1 to config.txt. Tried it on several monitors and tvs.
Is there something else I can try or did I get a defective board?

Raspberry Pi 5 password not working
Hi everyone,
I've recently been running into the issue of my pi refusing to ssh. It claims that the password is wrong ":
Permission denied, please try again", even though I've never changed the default password (raspberry). I've flashed the SSD at least 3 times now. It's a fresh install, nothing has been changed. Pi is not overheating, RAM is not being used much at all.

Color Detectionsystem Sends Input to Raspberrypi pico
Hi, I have programmed a python script on my computer and a cricuitpython script on my raspberry pi pico. The computer sends a signal to my raspberry pi as soon as it detects a certain color. The pico receives the input correctly and lights up the standard LED. But the mouse click does not work. Any ideas what I have done wrong? I will upload the code as an image.
Hope someone could help me. Thank you

Installing Tailscale via static binary
Read online that it was possible to install Tailscale via static binary on LibreELEC; however, the tutorial assumed alot of general knowledge about the LibreELEC command system. I for one have zero experience outside the basics of the Raspi 5 OS hence why im here.
Ive followed the tutorial set by Tailscale, yet I'm still facing errors.
Tailscale Guide:
https://tailscale.com/kb/1053/install-static
#####################################
Setting up Tailscale with static binaries (unsupported)
If you would like to try Tailscale on a Linux distribution we don't yet support, we offer statically-compiled binaries on a best-effort basis.
If you use these binaries, contact us so that we can consider adding official support for your distribution.
We offer static binaries for x86 and ARM CPUs, in both 32-bit and 64-bit variants.
Download the static binaries for your CPU architecture:
Stable release track
Unstable development track
Unpack the archive: tar xvf tailscale_VERSION_ARCH.tgz
Start tailscaled: If you want to configure systemd to run tailscaled automatically, a service configuration is available in the systemd/ subdirectory of the unpacked archive.sudo tailscaled --state=tailscaled.state
Connect your machine to your Tailscale network and authenticate in your browser: sudo tailscale up
You're connected! You can find your Tailscale IPv4 address by running: tailscale ip -4
If the device you added is a server or remotely-accessed device, you may want to consider disabling key expiry to prevent the need to periodically re-authenticate.
#####################################
What I've done so far,
Enabled Raspi Tools in the LibreELEC add-ons
wget https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/tailscale_1.74.1_arm64.tgz
tar xvf tailscale_1.74.1_arm64.tgz
tailscaled --state=tailscaled.state
r/raspberry_pi - Installing Tailscale via static binary
Error = -sh: tailscaled: not found
I tried
./tailscale_1.74.1_arm64/tailscaled
r/raspberry_pi - Installing Tailscale via static binary
I proceed to get the error that tailscale has stoped.
What am I doing wrong/ can anyone help me get to my goal.
Have in mind that I am somewhat new to this system and the raspi 5 as a whole

Failed to attach to default card (Headphone audio problem on retropie)
Hey Guys,
I just build a arcade bartop but I came across a issue that includes the audio.
The HDMI Audio worked fine but its understandable, that I didnt want the very low volume from the monitor i'm using in my build.
For this problem I bought a speaker with a AUX (Headphone Jack 3.5mm connection), which will not work. I set the setting to use Headphone on Raspi-config and Audio settings. I also set the following commands in the config.txt file:
(This line should already be in the file, but if it's not then make sure to add it)
dtparam=audio=on
(Pretends no audio formats are supported by HDMI display, forcing all sound out the 3.5mm headphone jack.)
hdmi_ignore_edid_audio=1
As i tried to fix it i came across the error:
VolumeControl::init() - Failed to attach to default card!
AudioManager Error - Unable to open SDL audio: ALSA: Couldn't open audio device: No such file or directory
I'm using the newest retropie version for the Raspberry Pi 4 4GB
I would be very glad if someone could help me, because i've searched the internet for many hours and tried stuff with no success 😦

V4l2 rtspserver
does anyone how to resolve of installing the v4l2rtspserver?
Basically, I'm planning an senior design project of using the VS creator software for inspecting products and I called the company if I can use other cameras. They told me no but one of their engineers told me I could use a raspberry pi to act as a bridge of using the other camera to the software.
I'm currently having trouble right now of using the terminal to getting into the github's password since they are not implement the password authentication no more. I already have the account and everything(repository, personal token code?) It's just I dont ways around in coding wise in here. (I'm an electrical engineering student btw)
