gollark: 1. get a Raspberry Pi through Amazon or something, the Raspberry Pi 4 is recommended2. obtain apples3. grind up the apples into small apple fragments4. place the raspberry pi into the apple fragments5. a displacement reaction should occur, converting the raspberry pi into an apple pi(e) and producing a raspberry precipitate
