Yep. In fact I just met an 80 year old guy today that spent his career repairing tvs. Sure were a lot of tv repair men and shops for tvs that never broke.

What are you using to watch on the tv?

Just buy a tv, then don’t connect it to anything. But likely that you are going to connect something smart to it, so it doesn’t matter.

You can a modern tv way way easier. I do it all the time. And you don’t risk electrocution or exposure, and it can be done in about 15 minutes for most issues.

Crt tvs broke all the time.

Show me one non-tech savvy person that is installing anything that isn’t in the Android Play Store already. And that person has to have come up with this on their own and it wasn’t somebody like you who maybe tech savvy showing them how to do this I’ve been in IT for 21 years and I can guarantee no one is doing that.

Non-tech savvy people don’t even care, don’t even think about this, and don’t know anything about it.

Pounds, not even tons.

I mean, definitely read the article, 167000 lbs, isn’t very much. I imagine that a certain area around north Carolina is affected, but not much more then that.

I don’t know what kind of driver you were. However, my dad’s been driving for around 30 years and he makes sure to sleep and shower and he does his laundry and everything else like that because all of the truck stops happen to have all of that stuff available to them. In fact, I do IT work now, and I work at a lot of the pilots and flying J’s, and for example, one of the ones I just did in a remote town was fix a shower door so that way it made sure to lock and unlock properly with the code. That being said, I can guarantee fucking t. He’s going to be extremely pissed if they try to force him to drive 16 hours a day.

I don’t see how which app on Lemmy would matter as far as geo-coordinates because all you’re linking there is literally a latitude and longitude of coordinates. And if they paste it into a web browser, it wouldn’t matter what lemmy client they use.

I’m 50, worked out for years, took care of myself, did stupid shit all my life, no issues with my back. Maybe take care of yourself a bit everyone?

Don’t even need an LLM to set this up. It’s not hard, and it sounds like the dad helped and agreed to one 20$ spend which recurred into a massive ad spend.

I don’t think you have to find an AI picture of a fat person eating chips.

It’s funny that you’re only concerned with that aspect of the LG. The request that this guy’s talking about for the most part are not going to be microphone recordings or anything like that. It’s literally just fetching ads back and forth if you look at the actual pages that it’s trying to grab. And that’s exactly what Chromecast and pretty much any of the other streaming services are doing is driving ads and fetching them back and forth.

This is most of the companies out there at this point have created secure connections on almost everything. Very few connections out there are actually unsecured at this point in time. They’ve made them dumb easy so that way they can mother them.

Yes, but how many open Wi-Fi signals are around your home? If you have open Wi-Fi signals that are around your home, then that’s also an issue.

You guys are funny to think that any streaming device has any sort of ad capability is not doing the same exact type of thing.

Also this guy thinking that that’s a lot of requests being made by a single device in a week period. That’s really not that many requests especially when things like ads are being served up on the device or it’s got to make a request to be able to pull down updates and different things like that which it does at least ones have not several times a day as well.

I think you underestimate how many other people not in the working class also carry these types of devices and where these devices everywhere.

Ah ok
