  • Yeah I’m just so sick of cast being unreliable. The main reason I’m asking here is to answer two questions. It’s getting Chromecast set up on a raspberry pi even a thing (I’m just not really informed about what it requires), and are raspberry pis powerful enough to provide a silky smooth streaming experience. It’s kinda sounding like the answer is no.


  • I saw that and it looks very promising. My biggest question is about being able to cast to it. I’d really like to be able to use the Chromecast standard since it’s built into so many things, and I’m not sure if it’s feasible to get it set up on an open source setup without it being unreliable or finicky, so I’m hoping to hear if anyone has gotten a smooth setup with it.

    As much as I’d like full control over my device out of principle, I’m just sick and tired of something as simple as being able to stream to my TV being so choppy and unreliable.







  • How about several decades worth of emulators that Nintendo hasn’t touched? As the article points out, Yuzu both profited off their emulator and had step by step guides on how to pirate games. Emulators are legal, piracy is not. Nintendo suing Yuzu was not surprising or a change in precedent. Other emulators are not concerned by this because they play by the rules, and I don’t see why we should be worried about decades of precedence changing when yuzu was sued on grounds that every other emulator maker already knew were red lines.

    When you provide an emulator you simply have to say “we do not condone piracy, this emulator is for hobbyist use only”. Then let one of the hundreds of community resources provide the actual piracy instructions where Nintendo has to play whack a mole instead.
