Smart TVs do not magically connect to your WiFi without credentials.

Now if there is an open WiFi available, that might be a way or if the TV has a deal with a carrier to use all that open automatic WiFi.

Since when did real estate parasites, I mean agents, stop taking phone calls?

I get 3 cold calls a day from agents asking if I want to sell.

That is a dick move.

I remember when street fighter 2 was released for the SNES. Our store had it at 64.99 and that’s in 1990-something dollars.

Games have always been expensive, especially when hyped and already popular

But I still have an SNES and SF2 and can play it whenever I want. No chance a licensing server rejects me or a lic is flagged invalid in the future.

That’s the difference. I know as long as the hardware works, I can always use that game.

Of course I would pay an extra few dollars tohave media and guarantee a game will install and run even if the internet goes away.

This isn’t about convienence for the users, its about killing the secondary market

Holy crap really? That’s freakin comically huge

I grow carrots of multiple colors all year round. They honestly all taste the same.

Maybe they chip in with the utilities?

They AI owners wont care if it kills millions or releases the formula to recreate smallpox or anything… Only the stock market or their cash flow will matter to them.

I never understood why cars are built to go 170mph or faster… Why? Unless you are a truck to haul heavy stuff, smaller engines with speeds up to even 90mph is more than enough.

That’s like the daily temp in South Florida right now… And we haven’t even hit August yet.

But every version of windows requires training because they keep changing crap for no reason.

As in why the split between settings and control panel. Why the nonstop start menu changes? And so forth

Try Mint instead. Its a popular distro that has an old school windows like interface…not an exact match but super close, enough that you’ll be zooming along in no time.

I have used it a lot and have almost no issues except for the very propriety-windows-only software.

Use a VPN in Albania. No signin, no ads, its great

No one is ever fired for buying IBM or Microsoft.

You get fired by saving the company million s with open source alternatives until the day there’s an issue and they can’t blame IBM or Microsoft.

Wrong people.

Do not copy paste resume details. Tailor each submission to match the job. There’s no other waycto beat the AI right now other than to regurgitate job details back at them.

The home depot near me has only self checkout … I guess it was such a problem that they now have a team of workers standing next to each station to ‘assist’ with checkout.

You’re lucky to have any land to speak of in most Florida city homes. Lucky for a few yards of grass between homes if lucky.

There is not enough full sun yard at least for my place.

You are lucky…in Florida , FPL actively fights residents installing solar and have insurance companies refusing to give windstorm insurance if panels are installed…which is not an option if you have a mortgage.

Fuck FPL

Where I grew up, streets were the only place to play.

Yell car and move to the side. Then resume your street football game.
