X. adenotus var. arsatii

gollark: By which I mean both manufacturers and users.

gollark: Security is an issue too, because nobody really cares to update them.

gollark: Plus decently fast WiFi and stuff, they're great streaming boxes.

gollark: RPi4s can do 4K60p, not that I think 4K is much use.
