  • Pi Upgrade

    From freq@314:413/8 to All on Friday, September 12, 2025 13:07:46
    Just upgraded from Pi3b to a Pi5. Was looking for performance improvements
    for my Field Station 42 project, but notice increased performance on the BBS also. Also runs playstation emuulators. So... have to get another two.

    Nice... I still haven't grabbed a Zero 2 or a Pi 5 - I need to order both.

    What does your field station project DO?? I watched some videos about cube sat's - flipping cool stuff.

    Its a TV network that emulates live TV with different channels. Main reason I did it was to have an 80's channel with the commercials. Also have a pay per view channel with wrestlemanias and tyson fights. instead of continuous play, it calculates the schefuled time and picks up accordingly when you change channels just like old TV. I even made scramlbed channels with the video player doecial effects for channels we gad to pay for like cinemax or playboy etc. Have a remote control on order to be programmed for it. Right now I use a server to control with my phone.
