I've been thinking about getting a Raspberry Pi 4 (probably 8 GB), mostly just to play around with it as a curiosity, and I wanted to get a sanity-check if what I'm planning is going to work. I'm going to buy a kit that includes the Pi itself a plastic case for it a USB-C power supply a micro-HDMI-to-standard-HDMI cable a 16 GB microSD card some aluminium heatsinks for the Pi and I'm also planning to buy, separately, a microSD reader that plugs into a USB slot, so that I can work with the microSD card from my desktop I'm going to use balenaEtcher to put a Lubuntu image (it's the Linux distro I'm most familiar/comfortable with) on the microSD card through my Windows desktop plug the microSD card into the Pi plug a keyboard and a mouse into the USB slots plug the micro-HDMI end into the Pi, and the standard HDMI end into a monitor plug the power supply into the USB-C slot and the other end into an electrical socket plug the Pi into my internet router with a LAN cable and then that should give me a working computer with a desktop interface, right? a couple of questions: how do I turn it on? does the Pi have wifi capability out-of-the-box? (if not I also have a USB wifi adapter) since I assume the SD card is going to be the primary storage of the thing, can I get/use a larger microSD card?
