Then plug in a DVD player which will probably do the same thing.

One reason why I opted for a monitor instead of a TV. AFAIK monitors don’t do this shit.

Xiaomi has smart monitors with his crap.

i heard you can buy the monitors hanging over the counters at mcdonalds from the OEM where the “smart” is a module you have to buy seperately. is it something like that, or was it sold as a really big PC monitor?
Inktvip@lemm.ee 6 months ago
They’re called digital signage displays. Those module slots are usually in the intel SDM form factor.
This stuff is expensive as these displays and modules are rated for 24/7 operation and the software they ship with by default is specifically made to manage content on a large fleet of them.
You’re honestly gonna get a way better experience for cheaper by getting a normal TV + a NUC/Nvidia shield and just not connecting the TV to a network ever.

Good luck finding a 65"+ monitor at a reasonable price.
WeebLife@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Not everyone needs or has room for huge displays. For those ppl monitors work great.

Yeah, for a living room TV the only option is either “digital signage” or no network.
I’ll just stick to not connecting my TV to the network.

i read about a guy that had to physically detach the antenna module from the inside of the tv to stop the connection requests

You can look into “hospitality” tvs. The ones used in hotels and the like. Those can be better.
