  • Like with Obama’s joke about Trump this week saying that the White House renovations made the building look like “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory”.

    The GOP flipped out about the cheesecake factory part, but not about the comparison to Saddam.

    For those not in the know, Trump’s style of decorating has a name that existed long before 2016, it’s called “dictator chic” and it is the same decorating style Saddam, Qaddafi, other dictators and drug lords embrace.







  • More than anything, we need to stop buying this shit.

    Or we can pull together and design boards as drop in replacements for the circuit boards in the SmartTVs. I’m shocked at how cheap it is to get custom boards printed these days. Since SmartTVs are sold at a loss with the intent of making even more money by selling your data, replacing the hardware in the device should still end up being cheaper than the cost of an unsubsidized TV.

    With the AI tools available for designing boards now, it shouldn’t be terribly difficult for those with the right skills to do this.
