I wonder if they targeted users they couldn’t tie back to real identities. I never used an account tied to a real identity or a real email address and all of my accounts were banned for pretty innocuous or specious reasons.
One was banned for advocating violence against women, because I called Kaitlyn Jenner an attention whore. One was banned for saying Luigi is a hero. Of course all attempts at appeals were ignored.


The biggest issue in my home is not the mainstream streamers but things like Kanopy and Hoopla(public library offerings). If I can’t get those, then it’s a dead project before it begins.
Thanks for the root guide, I’ll look into it.


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.


How is that even insulting?


The best option is what the subject of the post is about and just tear down the firmware and see what it does. This is happening now and is the best answer.
I don’t know, I think an open source board replacement would be good too. I’d prefer that, actually.
Hell, if I could make a decent replacement for Roku and plug it into my TV, I’d open the TV up and disable the WiFi altogether.


Summarizing a discord channel into a usable format would be an excellent use for an LLM.


you’d be astonished by the assumptions that are made about the public…
Please provide an example or two. I’d like to be astonished.


Why cant WE be our own government?
Because most of “we” are checked out dummies who are easily manipulated by unscrupulous entities. And the more money you have, the more dummies you can manipulate.


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.


Oh no, I was taught to be polite, or there would likely be violence. The threat of Dad’s punishment was always on the table.


Whoosh!


Of course IBM has a hardware solution for you
Krishna also predicted demand for on-prem AI will spur sales of Big Blue’s Spyre mainframe accelerator cards.


So people should get free referrals to their site from google? Is that a right now?


My grievance isn’t so much with current household models with PCs sitting there running off solar (that’s starting to get very bloody specific though).
It’s actually my setup.


AI effectively raped and pillaged all human information
Copying information is not theft. Learning from copied information is not theft.
Theft is when you take something and deprive the owner of what you took. If I make a copy of your car, I am not stealing your car, you still have it and can drive it, wreck it, whatever.
Yep, practicing Jews are less likely to be supportive of Israel’s actions, at least in the USA.
I have noticed that all the arguments for continued Zionism at this point are appeals to emotion. I’m sorry but , “We don’t feel safe” is not a valid reason to murder children.
