    Yes, sir Mr. Monster, Agreed!
    by the way, hold the bread please. lol
    Farms are going automated, raspberry pi is probably more powerful than the processors used for these prototypes? With your interest in pi, thought it might be of interest.

    pass the mustard, would you please?

  2. Okay but we don't use grey poupon here in the house of Growl. I hope French's ballpark yellow is satisfactory. And yeah even the somewhat more primitive RPi models 3B and below make excellent processors for robotics. Open source hardware and software is a beautiful thing. The price is right, too.

    I don't have much interest in farming, though. Almost as hard work as fishing, but the pay is less. If I had a few thousand acres of farmland I would just let it go wild and sell deer leases, I think. I leave growing things in the dirt to those with a passion for it. Same goes for building robotractors. I have grief enough just assembling a 3D printer. It can definitely be done, though.

    I finally did get the stuff for connecting the newest latest and greatest Pi 4B to the 32" monitor. Worked great, but I couldn't get it to actually use two monitors at once via the gui tools, with Raspbian. No doubt when they release an official version of Ubuntu Mate for the Rpi 4B, this will be a no brainer and you can spread your work over two monitors without digging into the configuration files. Meanwhile my trading is done on a refurb Dell Optiplex with a graphics card added. Most of the nuts and bolts of the trading platform is displayed on a 21" monitor, and the 32" I populate with 8 charts. I like that. I can watch and trade all the top picks on my watchlist at the same time.

    saw your review on Rate Trader Workstation (TWS)
    https://www.elitetrader.com/et/resources/trader-workstation-tws.468/

    i saw no way to respond there so Here i do,
    Claim: Run Sierra Chart on GNU/Linux, BSD, and Mac OS X using Wine

    is it true? heck if I know.

    Sierra Chart Support Board is open to search, no password, but may be required to post.

    The following was gleaned by search, then find 'linux', kiwi has taken care of much business over the years. might be worth fifteen minutes of looking around to decide if of interest further.

    SC has some free usage time if does look promising.
    SC can use IB's flavor of data, as well as many other. Plus for linux look see test, free and easy BTCUSD data that you could use snap pop for testing purposes and bypass the ib data until determine if SC on Linux is realistic option.
    NOT suggesting BTCUSD for trading, just for testing SC on Linux, make no mistake. The BTCUSD data was super easy to access.
    IB no big hurdle if you get SC working well on linux, but wasted motion if SC on Linux is a no-go in your case. cheers.

    Hello,
    I dont Have PI, but was thinking to dublicate my setup im running on Windows PC:

    I bought bunch of laptops with damaged screens,wifi capable on Ebay capable of running almost any windows software, price is cheap no more than $50.

    Install VNC server on each one for remote connection.FREE
    Install OBS software for video capturing the screen.FREE
    Run ONE aplication only, example: NEWS feed, Twitter, TradeIDEAS, Scanners, Option Tables ,
    Excel logging software I developed, anything I would like to playback later for analysis.

    From My Main PC in the morning I connect to each Laptop with VNC connect, run required Application and OBS screen capture and record full day session on local hard drive.

    End of day I connect again, stop screen recording and copy video file (around 3-5GB) to central file storage under new folder, for every day i have new folder.

    The nice thing that Those laptop are cheap and could be installed anyway in the house, i dont have too be close to them, no noise no heat, I install mine in the basement, its cooler there too.

    With VNC connect I can monitor all laptop software on my main computer.

    So PI could be used in similar way VNC and OBS both runs under Linux.

  9. Out of curiosity: what do you plan to do with those stored video files? You will end up with n times 8 hours of video (n being the number of laptops). Are you going to binge watch all these videos during the weekend?
