Ditto. SKO in Vegas early next year, all paid. Staying home.

I’m sure I could script something similar in under 10 (hours).

Same for me, but without updating the backend. Probably an app bug.

With xargs everything is multithreaded.

Yes, but a few hours writing my own scripts will save me from several minutes of reading its documentation…

Everyone complaining about how embarrassing this is, I like this photo a lot because of how easy to manipulate he is. You ever had a toddler show you their drawing? You know that some praise of the hats gets Ukraine a few billion of military aid, why not play the game?

Primary pair of headphones? I think we live in different worlds…

Or woodworking. Or drones. Or… basically any sport, including basket and soccer/football. Or Maine coons. Or tiny houses. Or off-grid cabins. Or…

Might be satire, but I think some “products based on LLMs” (not LLMs alone) would be able to. There’s pretty impressive demos out there, but honestly haven’t tried them myself.

I would change “not always” to “practically never”. Every e-commerce site I have ever used warns you that you are responsible for import duties if shipped internationally.

It writes itself? Is that why it has a spelling error?

Steam games cost money, there’s nothing “vonutary” about it.

I worked for a few years as freelancer (so yes, I was the CEO, and the cleaning lady) and everyone was complaining that I wanted to earn money to pay my bills and felt entitled to my labor. Some friends still are in the same situation. I grew tired of freeloaders.

Yes, I detected ad-blocking for free users and didn’t serve them. Either pay me or gtfo. I ran a business to feed my family, not a charity.

If you don’t pay you’re not the consumer. Why wouldn’t they be hostile to you?

If real…

Same here, Samsung from 2019.

The competition doesn’t sound worse to me. My smart tv from 2019 is rock solid.

Sony is just known for amazing picture quality and abysmal software, so that’s just par for the course. If you want a stable TV return it and get some of the other models using the same panel (IIRC a QD OLED from Samsung Display).

I agree. A few years ago I wanted to activate a fan based on temperature in a server cabinet, and offer a REST and MQTT APIs (for HA). It was impossible with ESP Home for some reason, if you added the Bosch 280 sensor you couldn’t use MQTT. Very arbitrary limitations.

It took me less than 2 hours to build it with an ESP32 + Arduino. It’s all libraries that you just need to put together at this point, barely any logic at all.

My TV boots to the last input selected. It’s a smart tv.

It’s almost like ads and data collection subsidize the hardware and make it cheaper…

If you’re not born on January 1st, 1970, you’re not a true John Doe.
