The other option is for all the mods to quit. AI can probably do a lot of basic tasks, but without mods they wouldn't have a site pretty quickly.
Ultimately I plan on subscribing to the Mark Twain VR OnlyFans on my Meta headset. It'll be $20/mo for the ad supported tier. The ads will be directly loaded into my neural link so I can't look away.
We could just explore, try to learn new interesting things, and have campy holodeck adventures with Mark Twain.
I don't think the current rich people would approve. But screw'em if we have replicators
Sorry i misunderstood, thanks for clarifying!
These tech workers are not Bezos. They are just developers and technical people that thought they had a good job with competitive salaries. It sucks they have to uproot their lives because management is being shitty.
They may work for a company without ethics, but that's kind of the corporate landscape these days.
Either turn off the gas if you can safely do it, or call your gas company so they can shut off the supply to your house.
My Samsung I bought last year required an Internet connection during setup, but after it updated it "allowed" me to disconnect it. Just to be extra safe I connected it to a guest network that I changed the password on so it couldn't remember the credentials. The menus have ads (that never change), but I set the TV to default to the last HDMI port when it turns on.
I wish they had an AOSP sort of approach to TV where I could install a new ROM and customize the TV OS with whatever changes I'd like, so I didn't need extra devices to view Plex and my streaming channels. DRM shuts that dream down pretty quickly though.
I hope that some privacy forward brands will emerge, but there just doesn't seem to be consumer demand or awareness.
Thank you daddy capitalism.
I hope I can continue to make the smart TV dumb by never giving it network access. When that fails I'll have to hope the pihole handles some of it. The other fun option might be to put it on a VPN in the EU and hope that it enables some gdpr options.
Either way you're right, it's likely inevitable.
Sounds like something a bot masquerading as a human would say. Lol(?)
