Lul

2019-09-04 09:59:27 UTC  

no good

2019-09-04 09:59:35 UTC  

can't even get a single card under there

2019-09-04 10:12:43 UTC  

also why on earth you would strap the cards to raspbi (or have more than 1 distro on your pi (okay maybe two if you are really lazy and cant be arsed to install lakka to same distro as other shit)

2019-09-04 10:29:43 UTC  

nvm, I got Netflix working on Raspbian

utilisation is around 45-50% and 800MB RAM used

2019-09-04 10:37:48 UTC  

At 1080p it's actually a little better with direct HDMI

2019-09-04 10:37:51 UTC  

20-40% dependent on scene and loading state

2019-09-04 10:38:20 UTC  

a little screen tearing, but that's great for a NZD$100 computer

2019-09-04 11:07:29 UTC  

@Tervy
Raspbian, general use
RetroPie/Lakka: gaming
and other utility cards to switch out

2019-09-04 11:08:32 UTC  

I think tomorrow I will try to set up Lakka

2019-09-04 11:08:37 UTC  

now that I have proper HDMI out

2019-09-04 11:11:26 UTC  

@PoliteSuka why not just install raspian enviroment with lakka starter

2019-09-04 11:11:39 UTC  

so you dont need to switch just choose right icon

2019-09-04 11:12:03 UTC  

because another micro SD card is like NZD$5

2019-09-04 11:12:12 UTC  

who plutonium sediment cares

2019-09-04 11:12:49 UTC  

and m.2 shield or hdd/ssd shield is 30 and ?

2019-09-04 11:14:06 UTC  

but you do you :P just bringing the options

2019-09-04 11:14:48 UTC  

i literally have no idea how that works

2019-09-04 11:14:58 UTC  

and if I can just plug and play that shit, that's way better tbh

2019-09-04 11:16:14 UTC  

also I don't think those M.2 adaptors would even exist for RPi4

2019-09-04 11:16:52 UTC  

i doubt it makes things that differently to not work

2019-09-04 11:19:03 UTC  

this?

2019-09-04 11:19:15 UTC  

for example yes

2019-09-04 11:24:39 UTC  

i mean if you find specialy the usb3.0 stuff like that

2019-09-04 11:24:49 UTC  

it should give you decent write-read speeds too for the hardware

2019-09-04 11:25:28 UTC  

it would conflict with the current case i'm using

2019-09-04 11:26:08 UTC  

whelp out of window that option then

2019-09-04 11:26:18 UTC  

specialy if you have one of better cases

2019-09-04 11:26:56 UTC  

there is always the direct Sata SSD to USB 3.0 cables

2019-09-04 11:27:02 UTC  

if you want to strap SSD there externaly

2019-09-04 11:27:14 UTC  

dis stuff

2019-09-04 11:27:50 UTC  

tho it also requires you to have good PSU for your pi

2019-09-04 11:29:35 UTC  

I do have that

2019-09-04 11:29:42 UTC  

but then again

2019-09-04 11:29:52 UTC  

That's defeating the point for me

2019-09-04 11:31:01 UTC  

maybe its just me hating microsd card switching .. specialy if i need to try new distro or reset the oss

2019-09-04 11:31:10 UTC  

i wish there was way to do it tru raspbi easily

2019-09-04 11:32:36 UTC  

but that would require raspbi to have user-accessible BIOS of some sort

2019-09-04 11:34:02 UTC  

i would be happy to just "sd card you want rewritten in pi, usb stick with ISO > push button to flash" kind of deal

2019-09-04 11:34:43 UTC  

i would not need to design cases with easy retrieval slots or quick-access functions
