Pretty much AFAIK

There are so many variants of Android TVs so that just a single image won’t work

But AI still will. That genie is never going back in the bottle unless we hit a Butlerian Jihad type of deal and it becomes globally illegal.

There’s a repo with ready-made APKs for many TV models: https://github.com/Gathin23/cleanyourtv

And if your specific one isn’t supported, it has instructions how to do it with AI yourself

Tailscale + Rustdesk has worked for me so far.

Simple, easy, free and just works.

Step 1: buy a Professional Domain like antibot-enterprise-pro.com

Step 2: CNAME it to techaro.lol

Step 3: Profit!!

Optionally just sell them the rebranded Anubis with a different name for 500 a month, pay 50 to techaro, rest of it to a queer friendly charity.

And what did your tcpdump reveal?

LG levels of bullshittery? Or Sony style fingerprinting of anything on the screen?

Apple TV 🤷

No ads, very little base level telemetry. Very good app support because of the large install base. I still run the first gen ATV 4k and just this latest tvOS version is the first update it didn’t get. Everything still works as normal.

Rumours say there’s a new one coming this month, but we’ll see.

If you are more of a hacker type, the Nvidia Shield is relatively ancient hardware wise but still top tier if you throw away the Google shit and spend some time with 3rd party tools.

And you can get 4k Chromecasts for like 19€ used, even the ones with the remote included.

Your estimated order availability: Between now and December 30, 2026

Christmas present, yay?

AI powered games don’t work.

We did a super cool project for a game jam last year. Cost like 50c per game for us.

Cool for the 100 or so players who tried it, but there’s no way to make a profit from it.

Local models maybe.

I was “just” SA. This is something much much worse.

If kids do this shit to insects as kids it’s considered a marker for psychopathy or sociopathy. They did that to actual living monkeys.

As a long time “NSFL” content reader and watcher (efukt, rotten.com and liveleak - I watched it all):

I had to stop reading the article because I was getting physically ill - and I watched videos from the Yugoslavian war. This is truly vile shit and whoever was doing this or watching it should never be allowed to be around anything living ever again.

If you go “how bad it could be” it’s worse. Don’t read. Believe me.

Can someone please explain to a non-mathematician what the issue is specifically?

We all want the problems solved, right? Is there a wrong way to solve them? Or a process that people are supposed to follow not to “scoop” others? A honor system of sorts?

If a human dropped the same 700 solutions online, would it still be bad?

When the fines aren’t big enough, they’re just the cost of doing business.

Penalties for fuckery like this should be at GDPR levels, meaning a percentage of global turnover of the parent company.

According to Bloomberg Law, Apple didn’t agree with the jury’s decision nor the damages and would appeal the verdict.

It’s alleged until the appeals stop, then it’s the final verdict

Basically if a thing has a reliable second hand market, people will be more inclined to buy them.

DVDs for the longest time had no market, you couldn’t give them away. Now it’s picking up again. Blurays even more so.

My phone is wicked smaht as they say. It can easily run detection algorithms fully locally. It already knows peoples faces I’ve tagged in my photos, where I am, what’s my agenda etc.

All the glasses need to do is interface with the phone for all tasks they can’t manage internally.

A smartwatch, but as glasses if you will.

Also if I do want any internet/cloud access, I trust my phone to do that in a way I prefer instead of just giving everything to Zuck’s ad machine.

There was a dude 3D printing brightly coloured clip ons to cover the camera. Not a bad idea.

Still not touching that shit until someone comes out with one with zero cloud connectivity

Because I don’t understand. Really.

An “ad” for me is “buy Charm paper towels” or “install app you don’t have”.

“Continue watching Reacher Season 3” is not an ad.

For you it is?
