Hey /g/ remember that magic stick vaporware product a a month ago or so...

Apparently the have a bunch of news sites reporting about them. Are people really that stupid.

>mfw they raised 500k
>>51659208
Can't a Chromecast/Amazon Fire Stick/Android device/PC/Raspberry/C.H.I.P./Console/Aliexpress minibox already do this?
What's the point if it doesn't have high specs?
Why would people report this.
>>51659208
>mfw people fall for this shit
Snake oil salesman for computers
Like those people selling RPI as a "fully functioning desktop"

i debated getting my 14 year old nephew a raspberry pi so he could mess around with it and make shit like this out of it. why are normies so lazy and also retarded?
It has sixteen cores. This makes it 5x faster than a quad core cpu. You guys don't get it. This CPU has the same amount of cores as toptier server xeon.

For almost 400 bucks, they can't include a FULL installation? What kikery.

It clearly says 16 gpu cores
Does anyone make a decent compute stick that can play Hi10P, HEVC, and BDMV or should I just build a mini-ITX HTPC?
>>51659422
It runs Windows
>strongest memory
>>51662409
Yes, the better Intel Atoms and ARM machines can (in software, for hi10P).
But I'd get a box rather than a stick anyways.
Solid USB ports and bigger wlan antenna and sometimes less heat issues and stuff are usually worth it.
>>51662862
There is also this very new thing.
>>51662862
>(in software, for hi10P)
There's literally no SIP decoder that can decode hi10p h264, the only way to do it is in software
Did someone actually just ask if people were stupid?
ON FUCKING 4CHAN???
>>51662997
Okay, didn't know there was still none.
Anyhow, you can do it in software with the high-end-ish ARM or newer Atoms.
And HEVC + (even 3D) BDMV can be done in hardware on many of those.

bretty cool

>>51659819
>1 Gbps WiFi
>achieved it without the need for even one external antenna, whereas commercial routers require multiple antennas and are expensive
WHY ARE PEOPLE THIS STUPID
>>51661070
>highest speed of USB data transfer
>10 Gbps
>even higher than the theoretical max of USB data transfer
How did they get away with this?
>>51665121
Up to, not definitely 1 Gbps. The oldest trick in the book.
>>51663173
I have a 1st gen FireTV and hi10p works on it as long as I disable hardware acceleration in kodi. I don't recommend buying one though. The version of android it runs makes it pretty terrible.

>>51665135
You guys think you're so smart of course it's not possible yet. That's why they need the money to make it work. Everything is possible with enough money. Remember solar roadways?
>>51667501
>Remember solar roadways?
Yeah, we do. That project is a big reason for why crowdscamming is ridiculed.
