tbh I think it doesn’t need to manipulate the data on the stick for doing malicious things. it would just need a tiny processor consuming almost nothing, and doing its own communication on the bus it has access to. but I don’t have any idea about the possibilities

try a hedgedoc hosted by a random someone. maybe cryptpad.

if it’s a problem that linux is unfamiliar, then don’t worry because windows 11 is a bigger change from 10 than modern kde linux

you are on sh.itjust.works, you can edit here

its fucked up, but I guess their defense is that they are “just” collecting what is already publicly broadcasted by devices, which they consider public information

It’s noticeably less powerful than comparably priced PCs

those are bigger, and many people that want to game on TV don’t want such a bulky box besides it.

It’s noticeably less powerful than consoles costing hundreds of dollars less

console makers are selling their consoles at a loss, because they expect you to buy insanely overpriced games or get a subscription.

I think it was said in the GN video that valve couldn’t sell it at a loss even if they wanted to, because they are essentially selling a PC and they would be targeted with antitrust lawsuits for selling at a loss

It is not customizable in any meaningful way.

I guess that’s the price of consoles and tiny PCs. you won’t be able to make them without custom components.

yes it wouldn’t be compatible with anything else, but you would be even more angry because the research and manufacturing costs would make it even more expensive.

complain to micron and openai about the price, not valve. they can’t do anything.

then maybe you deserve burning through SSDs.

also this flaw is symbolic of how much do they care about their customers consumers.

update: so the problem is that linux cannot even boot on it yet

https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nvidia_Shield_TV_Pro_2019_(nvidia-mdarcy)

if that’s fixed, it will probably need graphics drivers to be found at least, wireless drivers, and whatever for the remote but possibly that would already work at least partially.

you mean nvidia shield? can it run any kind of alternative OS though? maybe custom android roms, but rather I mean even just a basic linux distro, or PostmarketOS.

You’re asking me to create the design? I’m not an engineer.

yeah, so the hardware does not exist yet. but valve is not AMD either, I doubt they have the money (yes) or the expertise to effectively become a graphics card manufacturer. probably they would have to come up with their own data and power sockets, and then it wouldn’t be compatible with anything else, maybe a steam machine 2

oh, yes that makes sense

right. what I wanted to say, is most people can’t just convert a phone they already have. though tbh, that might not be a great idea either, in case there’s a fuckup or some unexpected regression.

plasma bigscreen, and actually it had a release already! doesn’t have its own distro, but some include it already. I think fedora kde has it installed by default.

that does not make sense. you are not building a pre-built, because then its not a pre-built. is the sky cloudy over there?

I’m curious what miniature graphics card were you thinking to put in

This can easily be achieved with most any Android phone.

lots of phones are not supported even by lineage. it does not help that manufacturers are continuously farting out the same mediocre models just with slightly different hardware, so that drivers need to be figured out again

B - who in their right mind would think that a transistor is a legitimate target of a lawsuit?

someone who wants to intentionally misunderstand the situation, wrecking the discussion. I’m not saying you did that, but it’s not rare on forums like this.

when it is only affecting unofficial android systems, and stock roms are unaffected, then it indeed is a block.

weird. they are using mapbox which has nothing to do with google. maybe support just didn’t want to solve your case.
