You wanna see me install a Raspberry Pi 3 into my minivan to run the rear seat entertainment system? 😅
I’m more of a lurker than anything else haha. I scour forums for issues my cars/bikes are dealing with, and occasionally will ask a question here or there. I don’t really make many posts anymore, unless I’m doing a specific job or troubleshooting process that I haven’t seen documented anywhere else.
I do have a blog for my XR500 that I’m slowly working to make street legal. I initially called it a “restoration”, but it’s more of a “refresh with some light modernization” than anything else haha. I intend on keeping it as apocalypse-friendly as I can, since it’s kickstart-only, runs off a CDI system, and technically doesn’t need a battery (except for lighting)… The biggest hangup I have with that bike right now is the damn 23" front wheel that’s cracked. Not a single wheel repair shop I’ve called wants to touch it, a not-cracked 23" hoop is ~$150, and it’s too much work to convert it to 21" (that requires a disc brake conversion - I’m not tracking this thing, it’s just a commuter).
If you have content please post it. I’d love to have a motorcycle forum here but can’t really add content

I want to know more about the raspberry pi 3 entertainment system!
If you insist 😅

That’s really cool! So the media system was there already, but you added the raspberry pi and modified it to accept hdmi as well?
Ah, too many of us lurkers. We have to get some content people to make content for us
