I put on my robe and wizard hat
When our last TV which was ‘smart’ died, we just bought a big lcd monitor at the pawn shop. We already were only using Kodi on an Android box, so a monitor with external speaker is fine. (Seemed spyware free last time I checked, but beware no-name android media boxes on=from eBay etc., use a tiny or old spare PC instead if you wish).
One must ‘sail the high seas’ tovget content, of course…
We should do more than block them, they need to be teergrubed.
Americans rejected The Crown, but missed vapid royalty so much, they had to invent their own.
Thanks for clarifying (and I should’ve looked it up myself! My bad for being lazy).
That sounds like a sane policy.
Not to get political… buy why wouldn’t just washing it and generally treating it respectfully be good enough (Like, why waste a perfectly nice looking flag?)
Intentionally throwing one’s national flag on the ground and stomping on it… that’s one thing. But just dropping it by mistake? People make mistakes, it shouldn’t be considered bloody treason :p
Then again, I’m one of those people who avoids ever addressing ‘someone of station’ as ‘Your Grace’, ‘Your Honour’, ‘Your Highness’, etc. If I were ever in the situation of being expected to do so, I’d be very uncomfortable and would try to get away with “Sir” or “Madam”. I don’t believe anyone deserves such obsequious subservience. Guess I’d be dead if I’d been born a few hundred years ago.
You can, but now it’s called “a big monitor and your own server with a personal media library”.
Individual does this – CFPA indictment instantly.
MegaCorp does this – Oh dear, we absolutely must meet to plan to implement a meeting to form a panel that will plan to meet to maybe ask nicely that MegaCorp stop what they’re doing (or pay us lots of lobbying funds to make it go away, which it will do anyhow, just not quite as quietly as if they pay us $$$)
To be fair, it could be the Metropolis gal too.
Hah, no – oops, will fix :) Thanks
Gee, no one could have predicted that AI might be dangerous if given access to nukes.
Hmm, if you could find a SCSI3->2 adapter, and then a SCSI->CompactFlash drive, you might be able to cobble a working solution together?
Yarrrr, mateys. Back to the Seas it is then!
Fine with me, I don’t need those :)
So surely there must be an easy way to cut/disconnect whatever antenna(s) are used for OnStar, LTE, Bluetooth etc. in modern cars? I know when I finally am forced to get a car with always-on systems I will be looking for ways to disable them.
Or, please consider Devuan as well, to ensure there are distros without hard dependencies on systemd, an expansive attempt to cement IBM/RedHat’s control over the direction of Linux through foundational changes to the init, filesystem, login, homedir, and other components…
Please don’t bother replying to change my mind… never gonna like systemd no matter what. If it works for you, fine. Some of us still find it wholly unnecessary.
