Can you even buy 'just a screen'? We have huge (100"+) screens in the office, they cost A LOT. full of spam, apps, ads, popups. It doesnt even swithc to hdmi or what ever you input automatically, you need to select the screen mode orso.

The local electronics chain has 50-100 different TV's. All are 'smart'.

I would be ok with classifying this as a crime against humanity. /s

But honestly, I've just given up. I don't watch tv or movies or stream anymore, because it's all the same bullshit


I meant, I treat the TV as "just a screen."

Set the input to "HDMI-1" or whatever my Roku is connected to, and that's the last thing I touch on the TV remote.


Sceptre used to sell dumb TVs but they seem to be exiting the marketplace. Computer monitors and digital signage may be your best bet. You'll have to save up for 'em but that was true of TV sets back in the day too.

Sceptre still has a bunch of dumb TVs on their site. I used to be all in on them, but I bought one that had the backlight go out after only two years, and their answer was "lol buy a new one"

Everything is a slippery slope if you tilt & twist it enough...

This particular slope has consistently had people pratfalling over and over again for hundreds of years.

As mentioned in the article, the EU already has a different plan

Has to be vibecoded garbage I guess. Haven't heard of excluding browser like this since ie6

Imagine that owner literally blocked FF server-side, shame.

Got any recommendations?


I've stopped diagnosing outlook/hotmail/live delivery issues about 12 years go, they simply do not give a single fuck about their customers. It used to be different, about 18 years ago orso, they had ways to contact them and resolve such issue.

fuck big tech :)


Dude, you are the ONLY one here talking about children consuming porn, you depraved pervert!


Sam is best satirized word-for-word


If we put Sam and Jensen together as the guests in a HN or Slashdot AMA thread, I’m not sure we could tell them from a poorly trained LLM.
