You’ll never be able to buy that at like a Walmart of Best Buy type retailer. TVs these days are already just spy machines to serve ads. It’s a lovely idea, but it’ll never happen.

You’re welcome.
Color me shocked that a meta product is sacrificing trust so the line continues to go up.
I mean, you could charge like $8 and then give the totally real people that are paying that money a blue checkmark? /s
Seriously though, I like the idea, but the verification has got to be easy to do and consistently successful when you do it.
I run my own matrix server, and the most difficult/annoying part of it is the web of trust and verification of users/sessions/devices. It’s a small private server with just a few people, so I just handle all the verification myself. If my wife had to deal with it it would be a non starter.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t there have to be a code layer somewhere in there?
It’s like all those “no code” platforms that just obscure away the actual coding via a gui and blocks/elements/whataver.
I am like you, and love the idea of starting up a food truck business. I wouldn’t do it unless I was already wealthy enough to just pour money into it, hire people to deal with the admin, and leave me the fuck alone to cook.
I ran my own (non food) business for a decade. My experience is anecdotal. I don’t pretend I reflect the reality of running your own business, but it fucking sucked.
I spent so much fucking time on admin. I worked 80+ hour weeks, for what amounted to less than minimum wage. After a decade I burnt out and shut it down and now I work a dumb job that I give no fucks about and cook at home with my wife for us and for friends for the sheer pleasure of it.
Edit: my business was based on something I loved to do, and I hated all of the “business” parts of the business.
This whole album is fantastic
Same. Whatever I’m currently listening to I add a bookmark before bed and go back to that point the next time I listen.
Tinnitus is the worst.
I’ve got a raspberry pi 4 (8GB) running Kodi (via osmc) hooked up to our tv. The tv itself is a Roku tv that isn’t allowed to connect to the internet.
I’ve also got a pc that used to be my streaming/video editing rig back when I used to make videos, but I repurposed it as my server, and it runs Jellyfin, along with a host of other apps/services for me and my family.
The pc is older, but as a server it works great. Biggest drawback is power consumption, it’s not nearly as efficient as a mini pc with a n100 or something similar, but for my purposes it works great.
What they’re saying: “we promise to support your device for seven years! Isn’t that great!”
What they mean: “We promise to keep our spying/data gathering/ad serving updated to the latest spying/gathering/ad tech to extract as much data and money as we can.”
(I 100% didn’t read this article and am 100% taking the piss on these shitty companies spying on us and manipulating us)
Right! Two albums that go hard.
Oh damn. That’s wild.
Me either! Is it now a dollar general?
Do you live where I live? Exact same scenario, including the fate of the building.
Great song. Love this whole album.
I’m headed in that direction.
I LOATHE that fucking google sign in overlay.
I was just listening to this. It’s an interesting track. I’ve never heard FKA Twig’s music before, and I’m definitely intrigued. Planning to check out more of her stuff.
