Xiaomi makes good poo poo and the security policy is dumb as gently caress China cares less about what you personally are doing than the US government. Unless you are the US government I guess

I'd rather just get a RasPi in case I want to go more advanced than just playing shows and movies.

Rokus are so cheap because they datamine everything you do with the TV. This is part of the business model.

Has the extend buyer protection link gone missing for anyone else? I've got one order with 5 days left on the clock and I'd rather extend than dispute. It used to be here when you looked at the order detail.

Hirayuki posted:Is it safe/wise to purchase an Android TV stick off Ali? This Xiaomi Mi stick gets good reviews and the price is right for my purposes, but I know the U.S. is avoiding Xiaomi and Huawei as a matter of national security policy. The other thing that kind of made me is the promise in the description to begin recommending shows you might like based on what you've been watching. I'm too far gone with Google (and all the streaming services) to care if they do the same, but not everyone needs to know my business. I have bought many xaoimi android tv boxes off Ali (although one might have been gear best) They are great, however the mi stick is really underpowered, and the chipsets in their other boxes are starting to age a bit. Last time I looked it was only $5 more to get a "Google Chromecast with Google tv" with the bundled Netflix credit*. And that box is really quite good. The only reason I haven't replaced my mibox3 on the main tv is that nothing else has an IR receiver to work with my harmony remote when I lose the tiny little Bluetooth remote. * After assuming the Netflix credit is basically like a cashback offer since you have a subscription already

Unrelated, is there a good RasPi guide for absolute beginners kicking around the forums or elsewhere online? Thinking of replacing my media PC with one but I don't know where to start.

I think the cool kids use a different SBC these days. I’d hit up a popular media center software’s forums / guide and see what hardware they recommend.

I don't really need dedicated apps beyond that and don't have cable.

yoloer420 posted:Normally it's about language support. Get the global version. Yeah I figured for an extra £2 it was worth going for the more expensive version just in case busalover posted:What's that? Like "if you keep running another five miles at this speed, you will use x amount of calories"? As another poster said it tells you how many calories you've burnt but they are super innacurate and more for fun. Speaking of fun, look at this little handheld!

Just got my Powkiddy Flip (gbaSP looking device) It is indeed a sweet deal for the price. Not ergonomic enough that I'd want to have long sessions on it but just the thing for a long bus ride.

Looking for suggestions on “props” for the couple of d&d games I run for kids & differently-abled adults. Across both games the players loving love getting their hands on an actual thing (hell, so do the players in my regular game). So far Aliexpress has provided: - a dragon themed tankard (the Dragon Flagon) - a thumb ring with eyes all over it - several bunches of keys - several mini resin skulls - human, dragon, ram and rhinoceros - shark teeth - wax seals & parchment for letters I need them to be cheap! As an example, the thumb ring was 83p so even with tax still under a pound. I’d be super grateful for any links to little trinkets like this that anyone thinks might work.

Not AliEx but you should check out printable paper craft stuff for props, many template are free and the cost of printing is negligible with non original manufacturer ink. I posted here some stuff I made E:here's an easy dice rolling tower Also search Itch.io for some printable goodies for cheap/free.
