    This weekend I setup a raspberry pi 5 with a spare M2 PCLE card I had sitting on my desk. I connected it via Bluetooth to my soundboard and presto the best fucking streaming box I have ever had.

    On Monday I have a mini keyboard and mousepad the size of a remote arriving.

    Up next, another one for the downstairs. Just got to figure out the DAC+ HAT sound setup so I can connect it to my speakers.

    What’s even better, I now have a perfect little box for running the slideshow at my tradeshow booth this winter. Makes it an official business expense and deductable.

      Ooh is it one of these (from riitek)? http://www.riitek.com/product/257.html

      I had an older version for my htpc more than a decade ago, then went a long while without an htpc. When I built a new one, I was surprised to find there still wasn’t much else comparable. I like the programmable IR remote on the flip side.

      Miss the laser though. Didn’t need it but idk, it entertained me
