TV Time Machine: A Raspberry Pi That Plays Random 90s TV

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-20 23:59:51

TV Time Machine: A Raspberry Pi That Plays Random 90s TV Growing up in the 90s, television was a different experience. You turned on the TV, and whatever was playing at that moment would become your entertainment. Nowadays you yourself are in control, you choose what you want to see, whenever you want. Strangely enough, I miss that feeling of having something selected for me, something I cannot influence. Maybe it's just my nostalgic musings, but why not create an afternoon project out
