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 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (2 children)

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.

Mine is an ancient Thinkpad, the true weapon of our Lord!

And not Windows*

Macs are not worth it for stuff like this.
