  • They’re called digital signage displays. Those module slots are usually in the intel SDM form factor.

    This stuff is expensive as these displays and modules are rated for 24/7 operation and the software they ship with by default is specifically made to manage content on a large fleet of them.

    You’re honestly gonna get a way better experience for cheaper by getting a normal TV + a NUC/Nvidia shield and just not connecting the TV to a network ever.











  • I definitely rely on documentation more than copilot, since I’ve noticed that the code it writes is only ever as good as your own codebase.

    Most of the stuff I code is API wrappers to get arbitrary data into a format our broadcast graphics system can understand. Once all the data structures are properly defined copilot is extremely useful in populating all the API endpoints.

    The actual problem solving is getting the data in the first place and morphing it into the correct format.
