Toyota boot screen! Love it.

Yeah, it sucks because LibreELEC is the only way I’ve ever got HDMI-CEC to work. There are some nice skins too. In a different life, perhaps.

Not the guy to ask about that, sorry. I’ve seen it recommended elsewhere which is good enough for me. If you make a post about it I would definitely be interested. I’m not using it myself but I do keep an eye on the updates.

From what I can gather KonstaKang is the guy who makes these Raspberry Pi-specific versions.

Me too. The original devs abandoned it and it was picked back up by new devs in 2025

The way I see it, if someone eventually makes a Bazzite-styled distro that “just works” with a Plasma-Bigscreen UI on a Raspi it will become the clear and obvious choice for anyone. But we’re far from that still.

Not quite, and believe me, I’ve been looking.

Your best bet is probably LineageOS Android TV on a Raspi 5. From there you can install Kodi too. My issue here is that CEC does not work. Meaning you need a second remote.

I probably don’t recommend LibreELEC on a Raspi, because despite install being seamless, Kodi these days is essentially a real-debrid frontend (which might be what you’re looking for if you want integral torrent downloads!). The normal streaming apps for Kodi are not maintained even PlexJellyfin don’t work out of the box.

Something else I’m keeping an eye on is Plasma Bigscreen but that’s probably 2 years out minimum of being user friendly enough for someone not experienced.

Lastly if you have a Samsung TV, Tizentube will get you YouTube without ads (and other perks).

It seems we agree on the facts, but not on what “useful” or “helpful” means. I honestly have never, ever considered deciding on what food to serve guests be “labor”, but in the interests of replying in good faith I asked an LLM the exact prompt you gave. It gave a long, detailed reply, but here is the first part labeled “1. Welcome / Cocktail Reception”:

Mini prosciutto‑wrapped melon balls • Brie & caramelized onion tartlets (store‑bought puff pastry) • Stuffed mushroom caps (herb cream cheese + breadcrumbs)

I want you to consider that this not actually helpful in the slightest, and is fact creating more work. Consider: is there a vendor nearby that has these items as an an option for event planning? Is this a recipe that even exists? Does this information further my mission of having a wedding in any conceivable way?

Those paragraphs are what I’m talking about. The author fails to explain what the LLM actually did that was helpful. It’s like saying “I used ChatGPT to plan my wedding menu” without any more details. What did it actually do? Why was it helpful? Those are the things I continue to not understand about these tools.

Skipping AI is not going to help you or your career. Think about it.

OK well I’ve thought about it and I still don’t understand. Surely, this thousand word essay can explain what ““AI”” can do right? Surely it’s not the same vague nonspecific claims about “missing out” on the future?

It is simply impossible not to see the reality of what is happening.

Huh. Guess I’m just really dumb then.

Are these the same people that refused to suspend Kiwi Farms and 8chan?

I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post…

I love the description.

Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see… unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn’t it?

2025 was the year for me (Fedora Kinoite), Linux in my opinion, is absolutely ready for the mainstream.

Ah yeah that’s a good point. I think “gamers” used to be a more distinct group with a more distinct identity, nowadays it’s like saying “moviegoer”.

This is also the first I’ve ever heard the term in any context so I’m hesitant to believe the author when they say “it looks like it’s sticking”…

After Silksong, Lethal Company and Content Warning were my two most played games in 2025.

I agree that calling these low-poly multiplayer games “slop” is terrible, because there is clearly a ton of love and effort poured into them. I hope the name doesn’t catch on.

Yeah but until two months ago Spotify was 24kbps

I wonder why Spotify and not YouTube Music, Tidal or Apple Music all of which are higher quality.

Yeah that’s probably the simplest way!

Helpful! Thank you I will look into it.
