brousch | http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/10/27/mozilla_hopes_to_challenge_raspbian_as_rpi_os_of_choice/ | 13:27 |
brousch | mrgoodcat: The bot fell asleep | 13:27 |
rick_h_ | morning | 13:32 |
brousch | yes | 13:33 |
mrgoodcat | of course it did | 13:35 |
rick_h_ | morn from boston | 13:36 |
mrgoodcat | .echo test | 13:37 |
bookiebot | test | 13:37 |
mrgoodcat | morn from detroit | 13:37 |
mrgoodcat | brousch: i think a competing rpi focused OS would be great | 13:38 |
mrgoodcat | although you'd have a hard time beating the performace of Arch on the pi | 13:38 |
brousch | You can run android on it | 13:38 |
mrgoodcat | not sure i would though... | 13:39 |
mrgoodcat | i'd be happier with chromeos on it than android | 13:39 |
mrgoodcat | idk which is more resource friendly though | 13:39 |
smoser | jcastro, hard to not want one of thsee http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GDQ0RMG/ref=br_imp_ara-1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-hero-1&pf_rd_r=1M5DMYY52Q6JD8TWNC1X&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=1958528642&pf_rd_i=desktop | 20:05 |
bookiebot | http://goo.gl/CcDAqh - Fire TV Stick - Official Site - Shop Now | 20:05 |
smoser | they're $19 for prime members 2 days only | 20:05 |
jrwren_ | i ordered already. | 20:06 |
jrwren_ | $19 is in my realm of no brainer. | 20:06 |
jrwren_ | on my pre-order it says "Release date: Wednesday, November 19, 2014" | 20:07 |
jrwren_ | so it will be a few weeks before it is delivered. | 20:07 |
brousch | So can you chromecast to it? | 20:09 |
jcastro | smoser, I have a firetv already | 20:11 |
jcastro | which I am selling if anyone is interested! | 20:11 |
smoser | i doubt you can chromecast to it. | 20:13 |
smoser | if it buffers instant streaming... its a win. | 20:14 |
smoser | the roku is painful to watch amazon instant on . | 20:14 |
jcastro | that's because your roku is a non-3, which were horribly slow | 20:15 |
smoser | does yoru roku-3 buffer? | 20:15 |
smoser | thats my problem. | 20:15 |
smoser | i think/ | 20:15 |
smoser | ie, seeking is just painful. | 20:15 |
jcastro | like, stop to pause and buffer all the time? | 20:15 |
smoser | on my roku if i want to go back, ie, i missed what someone said | 20:16 |
smoser | its painful. | 20:16 |
smoser | it has to re-get that. | 20:16 |
smoser | and if i then want to skip forward 30 seconds. same thing. | 20:16 |
jcastro | firetv isn't instant, but it isn't bad either | 20:17 |
jcastro | it's not something I complain about | 20:17 |
jcastro | skipping back and forth on streaming boxes is kind of a noop, heh | 20:17 |
smoser | anyone else notice that you can now pick "free no rush shipping" and get $1 credit on books ? | 20:18 |
smoser | on amaozn prime | 20:18 |
jcastro | yeah | 20:18 |
jcastro | I like that, there's a bunch of things I don't care about speed on | 20:18 |
smoser | well, i'm the proud owner (in some 3 weeks) of a amazon fire stick | 20:49 |
jcastro | heh | 20:49 |
jcastro | I preordered the nexus player thing | 20:49 |
jcastro | so we can compared | 20:49 |
cmaloney | I have the Roku LT and it's not bad for watching Amazon on | 21:21 |
cmaloney | the only thing that's a little painful is Youtube | 21:21 |
rick_h_ | evening | 22:34 |
