Pondering if it should be jailbroke and custom firmware installed. 15:42 <@_NSAKEY> dasunt: Why wouldn't you? Google doesn't support it anymore. 15:44 < dasunt> Wondering about performance. This is the lowerish-end earlier Nexus 7. 15:54 <@_NSAKEY> It doesn't look like there's even an official LineageOS build for it. 15:58 < dasunt> 5.1 looks like the latest I'm finding for PA and AOKP. 15:58 < dasunt> Oh, AOKP may be based on 6? 16:31 <@Evilpig> I hate tech support. all of it. no matter the company they are all awful 16:31 <@Evilpig> Just called samsung to find out why the latest firmware for my tv removed the options for Anynet+. That is their rebranded version of CEC or ARC depending on the model of tv 16:32 <@Evilpig> she tried to tell me that she pulled up the back panel of the tv and the port isn't labeled arc so it doesn't support CEC and that they never remove options from the menu 16:32 <@Evilpig> I found multiple people report that this update removed the CEC support and there isn't a way to downgrade, but I didn't see that until after the thing auto-updated. :-/ 16:33 <@Evilpig> I had to explain to her the difference between CEC and ARC and she still insisted that the tv needed arc. 16:33 <@Corydon76> https://adequateman.deadspin.com/what-did-we-get-stuck-in-our-rectums-last-year-1821393493 16:33 < PigBot> Corydon76: That URL appears to have no HTML title within the first 30480 bytes. 16:33 <@Corydon76> Despite the title, the article is SFW 16:40 < dasunt> Evilpig: This is why I want a dumb TV. I'd rather have a separate device like a Roku plugged in. 16:50 -!- remoford [~remo_lapt@69.137.84.154] has joined #se2600 16:57 <@Evilpig> dasunt: I have a shield plugged in 16:57 <@Evilpig> and it turns on the receiver, and I'd like the reciever to pass that wake up message to the tv, and it can, but the tv has had that feature disabled mysteriously 17:04 < dasunt> I turn on the TV manually. 17:04 * dasunt is old. 17:06 <@ezelkow1> hehe, i go the long way around, i yell at google home or alexa, which then in turn talks to the harmony hub, which then turns on everything 17:07 < dasunt> LOL. 17:10 <@ezelkow1> it is handy tho, cause it takes the projector like 30sec to come all the way up, and im upstairs in my office/loft within shouting distance, so I can yell and have it ready to go by the time im downstairs sitting 17:10 <@ezelkow1> or just use my phone to do it too 17:15 <@Evilpig> I turn it on manually now, but I've seen the possibility. my tv in teh livingroom turns on when I hit the button for the shield to turn on 17:15 <@Evilpig> it's glorious! the shield comes on, then the tv turns on, then the sound bar fires up. it's geek heaven 17:16 <@Evilpig> and similarly when I tell the shield to turn off everything powers off 17:16 <@Evilpig> same with the switch and the ps4 17:16 <@ezelkow1> yea the harmony is like that, but on steroids 17:17 <@Evilpig> the harmony talks to each device though. this is one signal sent to all of them via hdmi 17:17 <@ezelkow1> cause i also have my motorized screen programmed in, plus the flirc, so i can switch between the cable box and steamOS box/kodi, and then it keeps track of state 17:17 <@ezelkow1> yea, i know cec, i wrote stuff to handle cec :) 17:17 <@Evilpig> I'm blaming my call to samsung on my livingroom spoiling me. lol 17:18 <@ezelkow1> i did some work implementing it on the dish set tops, and when they integrated playfi helped them get volume control from phone app->dishbox->avr working over cec 17:18 <@ezelkow1> which is flaky as hell cause most avr's respond sooooo slowly to volume commands over cec 17:21 <@Evilpig> I might have to work on this slack bot tonight. https://tinyurl.com/y6vcsbhu 17:21 < PigBot> Title: Message Formatting | Slack (at tinyurl.com) https://tinyurl.com/y6vcsbhu 17:55 -!- HackMaster [uid45710@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-napaozmqfvuypiup] has joined #se2600 18:35 < K`Tetch_> 18:04:40 «dasunt» I turn on the TV manually. <-- I tell the kids to do it (I'm even older!) --- Log closed Thu Dec 28 00:00:00 2017
