Yeah. I wasn’t sure it would work for your use case necessarily, but I did remember seeing that a version of the Walmart onn box was available in Europe, so I didn’t want to discount it altogether.

Either way I do hope you find what you’re looking for and if I come across suggestions that might work I’ll try to post them here.

Possibly? I don’t know for sure because I can’t find a store front selling it, but it does appear that these devices are region locked and that there are people in Asian countries sharing ways to end around the region lock.

No. It looks like it has a different name.

I think that data includes the prices for RAM, and the price point they’re hoping to sell it at. I don’t mind the idea of buying this to literally just put in my entertainment center. I wouldn’t even mind upgrading the RAM when it eventually comes down in price or I can save up for it.

But since I already have a steam deck equivalent handheld running Bazzite, I also already have a lot of the peripherals I’d want in order to make this useful for streaming or other services, so it’s not a huge barrier to entry for me. The form factor is what I’m looking for too. Without all the stupid LED’s and BS.

To be fair, I believe that’s the “Walmart” one op talks about in the post. I believe they do sell a version of this same set top box in the UK and possibly other parts of Europe. So it may be a viable option still.

Probably.

Your vacuum doesn’t go under furniture more than likely so to clean under there you quit being a janitor to become a furniture mover?

I guess it’s turtles all the way down.

That’s not what I mean though. What I mean is, in the event that for whatever reason the signal to deactivate the electronic park brake cannot get where it needs to go using the scan tool, there has to be a way to do it manually.

Say your vehicle is in an accident. Say the electronic park brake wiring is in shreds. That brake caliper needs to come off. The body shop is going to require a way to remove it if the scan tool can’t disengage it.

Say there’s corrosion in the connector. Same same. Has to come off and be replaced. And so on.

So, there has to be a way to manually disengage the park brake. And I say that because otherwise techs wouldn’t work on them. Time is money in the automotive service industry. That information will leak eventually. It’s stupid to even intentionally try this.

A fair assesment. Except that you have to (and should be) cleaning the upright vacuum as well. Vacuum fires are no joke.

Yeah. I’ve got an 870 that’s still cleaning. It gets stuck under furniture and needs to be rescued at least once a week, and last week it lost its ass dustbin somehow mid clean, but it’s still kicking.

It might help you to know there’s a possibly better community for tech support questions about Linux. Someone there may have the answer you’re looking for.

I’m a Linux noob so I’m sorry I can’t help more.

On the other hand I own 3 different raspberry pi’s. One for Home Assistant, one for Pihole, one for booting the server computer when I’m not home if I want to stream a movie from my library.

I love that every single time I see someone mention the older “steam machines” from way back when they lable them as horrible. I own one. It was amazing. I had to download custom software to overclock it because the software limited me more than the hardware. And it wasn’t even an i7. For the form factor and the price I paid for it, it was totally worth it and not crappy at all.

I’m looking forward to seeing what steams actual hardware will do.

My problem is that the medium is how I can recall it. So if I did write it all out by hand, I would need scratch paper in order to write it all out to be able to tell it to someone else to prove I know it. This happened to me in school a lot.
