Yeah, there is a software you can install on the Pi called scrcpy (which is a terminal utility), you can get a GUI for it with guiscrcpy

Here's the link going over it: here

And for the GUI part here

I haven't use it, so not sure how well it works. There could also be other software to support casting that I'm not aware of.

Yeah possibly, but the way it's trying push those messages, it almost make me suspect its trying to advertise consumerism to me or something. Be it intentionally or not.

Obligatory theme song

It's certainly trying make me hungry for pizza. But yeah, most of its ideas are either "One does not simply eat one pizza slice" or Gandalf telling everyone to "buy, you fools"

Thanks for the clarification! That does make it more interesting than just an ActivityPub clone

That might be it actually, will have to look into that. Thanks!

We'll all be bed at some point anyway

They've been going on about that for years now, and last I heard about it, they said it would cost too much to implement or something like that? Can't remember now.

True, but I'm currently aiming for a leaner build so want to avoid extra calories that I don't need

How is this different to ActivityPub protocol that the fediverse uses? Seems like its trying to accomplish very similar things? Like how KBin and Lemmy can interact with the same content and have different layouts, apps, etc.

I suppose it's good to have alternative protocols for decentralized communication, but wouldn't it be better to focus on one and put more effort into improving it?

That's amazing, its even the same scene and all! That video should be longer

As far as I'm aware, the only way to get a private streaming box would be to use a RaspberryPi. You could use Google Chromecast but then you get Google, Nvidia have Nvidia Shield but that costs a lot and I'm not familiar enough with it to know if it has spyware.

With RaspberryPi, all you really need is to just install the Raspbian OS (they have detailed instructions on their website) and you basically have a mini PC with an Internet browser and all that. So you could just do that?

There is also this Chromium DRM compliant browser which supports Hulu, Amazon Prime, Netflix, etc. Which you can install on the Pi for streaming support. Here's the link

Just stay away from Chinese made Android Boxes. Linus did a good video covering those here

Elon Musk: "No! You can scrape Twitter data for AI research!"

Also Elon Musk: "I'm gonna start scraping Internet data for my AI research"

Spelling Irish names

You're telling me people don't have tactical barbecue sauce bottles strategically placed around their house for easy access for when you're eating ribs and need a little extra sauce?

Thanks dad

I could spend hours looking at clean and well designed code

You opened my eyes to the Agent Elrond Smith meme potential

Thanks, yeah I made this one
