mrgoodcatbrousch: i think a competing rpi focused OS would be great13:38
mrgoodcatalthough you'd have a hard time beating the performace of Arch on the pi13:38
brouschYou can run android on it13:38
mrgoodcatnot sure i would though...13:39
mrgoodcati'd be happier with chromeos on it than android13:39
mrgoodcatidk which is more resource friendly though13:39
smoserjcastro, 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=desktop20:05
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/CcDAqh - Fire TV Stick - Official Site - Shop Now20:05
smoserthey're $19 for prime members 2 days only20:05
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
brouschSo can you chromecast to it?20:09
jcastrosmoser, I have a firetv already20:11
jcastrowhich I am selling if anyone is interested!20:11
smoseri doubt you can chromecast to it.20:13
smoserif it buffers instant streaming... its a win.20:14
smoserthe roku is painful to watch amazon instant on .20:14
jcastrothat's because your roku is a non-3, which were horribly slow20:15
smoserdoes yoru roku-3 buffer?20:15
smoserthats my problem.20:15
smoseri think/20:15
smoserie, seeking is just painful.20:15
jcastrolike, stop to pause and buffer all the time?20:15
smoseron my roku if i want to go back, ie, i missed what someone said20:16
smoserits painful.20:16
smoserit has to re-get that.20:16
smoserand if i then want to skip forward 30 seconds. same thing.20:16
jcastrofiretv isn't instant, but it isn't bad either20:17
jcastroit's not something I complain about20:17
jcastroskipping back and forth on streaming boxes is kind of a noop, heh20:17
smoseranyone else notice that you can now pick "free no rush shipping" and get $1 credit on books ?20:18
smoseron amaozn prime20:18
jcastroyeah20:18
jcastroI like that, there's a bunch of things I don't care about speed on20:18
smoserwell, i'm the proud owner (in some 3 weeks) of a amazon fire stick20:49
jcastroheh20:49
jcastroI preordered the nexus player thing20:49
jcastroso we can compared20:49
cmaloneyI have the Roku LT and it's not bad for watching Amazon on21:21
cmaloneythe only thing that's a little painful is Youtube21:21
