Comment Good place to ask for advice then (Score 2) 31

I'm on an aging 'Chromecast with GoogleTV' that has no AV1 HW support.

Can people give me some suggestions on a good replacement that supports AV1 on 4K, hopefully with Netflix support. And is there anything to buy that is a little futureproof or should I just get a generic NUC?

For those with generic NUCs, what do you suggest for a settop box experience? Some specialized distro of Linux or a x86 Android install or something?

This sounds stupid, and also, even if it were true then this is something that gets solved the more autonomous cars you get on the road:

* You get more computer driven cars on the road, the roads will become more computer-car friendly. Think of signs or markings on the road that will tell the car where it is, or what kind of hazards are coming up via for example a QR code.
* Once you get more driver-less cars you get inter-car communication. Car up ahead does the full sensor sweeps and pass the results down the train, saving power for all the other cars.
* Once most cars are driverless, you'll get dedicated driverless car lanes which should be made easy to navigate for them
* And when human driven cars are totally extinct I expect cars to be able to navigate roads with something equal to a raspberry pi today.
