don’t put it on Twitter if you don’t want people seeing it and possibly talking shit. it’s not between them anymore. social media has fucked people’s brains, main character syndrome.

I have pihole setup too. I’d still never need to connect my tv. but you’re free to do as you want
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 5 days ago:
if it’s such a problem, then don’t use anything, let your tv be open to the Internet and browser hacks. that’s your prerogative. but we’re telling why it’s a bad idea, that’s all.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 5 days ago:
i already said why. there are stories where an update now injects ads into the tv, more than were there when you bought it. so after you can’t return it, well, now it’s “updated” and can’t take the piece of shit back.
using a 3rd party device still leave you in some sort of control. i use an nvidia shield, which definitely does add better functionality, but if it starts acting stupid, i flash it back to defaults/roll back any updates or i replace it, tv unchanged.
and power usage is negligible at best.
here is one story - choice.community/t/…/26124
spying - money.cnn.com/2015/02/09/technology/…/index.html
phone updates can do the same - old.reddit.com/…/samsung_wants_to_turn_my_chargin…
bottom line, if you don’t control the device, you have no say in what gets update/installed/“upgraded” to support more ads. on an external device, i know how to wipe it/block updates. on the tv, best i could do is factory reset it, im IT, not TV.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 5 days ago:
bingo. never put the tv on the network, just budget for adding something else. tvs have been known to update after a year and start injecting ads outside return policy LOL. fucking scam’s man. my shield fucks up, it get flashed. or traded out.

you don’t have to be vegan to help stop animal cruelty. there are many, many humane and legit ways to help animals without veganism. not drinking milk or eating eggs doesn’t matter.
