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

2019-09-04 11:35:57 UTC  

or hell "while pi is powered on and SD-card is installed send packets XY followed by ISO tru raw packets/telnet/ssh/serial via ethernet during boot"

2019-09-04 11:36:01 UTC  

would save me even more time

2019-09-04 11:37:45 UTC  

hell and software what waits for pi to boot and send "im up to be written" and wait X > sofware would send "yeah today is this file:file.iso" rest is magic and pi reboots

2019-09-04 11:38:43 UTC  

ofc for security reason usable only with togle switch on board so nobody can crash your pi and then abuse it for nefarious stuff

2019-09-04 11:39:46 UTC  

(and ofc running operating system could have disable bit for that too incase some fuckhead forgots to flip that switch back)

reminder that there's a limited amount of mating cycles on a connector/sd card

2019-09-04 11:43:46 UTC  

i've had microsd cards just randomly break in half once, without even applying too much force

2019-09-04 11:52:13 UTC  

i wonder which one has more stress resistance

2019-09-04 11:52:21 UTC  

the connector itself or the card 🤔
