Why does this produce need a massive digital signage pylon?

The question is, why does it run on Linux and not Apple

[-] CmdrKeen@lemmy.today 38 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Perhaps it runs on a Raspberry Pi?

Or orange pi. Banana pi.

The best thing I learned when writing this comment (because I know there are other fruity labeled pi computers) is that you can look up “other fruit pi” and actually find results. Semi-relevant ones. (I use ecosia, not google/bing/askjeves, so ymmv)

I was in a hotel where there was an AV input on a TV which just showed the screen of a Raspberry Pi. If I remember correctly it was running XFCE.

Not sure why that was because the TV channels worked correctly.

Because it would be expensive, just look at the price of the Lime /s

And not Windows*

Macs are not worth it for stuff like this.

  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
