Cast

gollark: Better ones presumably cost proportionately more, but I don't think it's a huge fraction of tablet cost.
gollark: Those really bad Allwinner chips in underpowered tablets are apparently $10 or so each, including power management IC.
gollark: I think last time I had to do *that* I rigged up an awful, awful solution with a WiFi hotspot on my phone, `python3 -m http.server` in Termux, and someone manually putting in the IP address.
gollark: Computers are *really cheap*.
gollark: I'm not sure this is actually very useful, though.
