what if I got a mini PC to plug into my TV... hmmm... would that be worth it
my main use case would be watching things that are troublesome to watch on the tv itself (like twitch, and downloaded stuff) and maybe some light gaming
but i can already do all those things by plugging in a laptop. this would just be a more convenient way of doing it. at the cost of a) some money and b) adding another device running microsoft freaking windows into my life
@lion You could use Linux instead.
@NekoEd Yeah I think Linux would work for most of what I want to do at least for streaming/media but would lose out on some gaming capability... and if I bought a new mini pc it'd probably come with windows anyway so I would probably resign myself to sticking with it
@lion You could use Bazzite and you'd keep the gaming capability (though an N150 Isn't going to be terribly performant for anything but emulators and very old games)
@lion Oh. It's a bit old by now but not too bad with Linux (it's GCN 5 so no more support on Windows).
