Yeah, I get it. Disconnecting the TV is a must, and luckily I never even connected mine for many years. The thing is that I’m not sure that we can trust in the licensed devices either. Chromecast, Fire TV, Nvidia, etc… All of them have trackers as well. A PC or a Pi would have the limitation of streaming at maximum 1080p resolution for some streamers providers such as Netflix. It is quite a challenge!

Honest question how do we stream from Netflix, HBO Max, Apple TV, etc without connecting to the internet? Also, most of those stream require a recognized device to stream over 1080p. So basically, if you get a new TV wouldn’t you be operating it as a old TV on those terms? The alternative that I see is keeping all that you want to watch at 4k in Jellyfin or Emby (don’t use Plex it is just pushing ads) but you will need to maintain a library.

Does Louis releases his videos on PeerTube or just Odysee and YouTube?

No workaround as far as I’m aware. Commenting to follow others comments to learn if something changed in this area

There are some rumors about a new android box made by Valve. Perhaps if you have the benefit of time wait a little bit to see if it sees the daylight

CES 2025 is just around the corner. I’d wait to get a new laptop now.

Fwupd is the way to go, I’m actually checking the device lists that are supported by it to get new laptops going forward

Brazil, a nation that 20 years ago that was quite civilized and relaxed in terms of politics and people were a bit more united. Now is all about sides and grumpy irrational actions and talks. This seems like some sickness. I wonder if this will pass some day. I thought that this was something that other nations were envy about it. I guess we lost our charm.

A group of people from the army had a plan to assassinate the elected president by poison or shot

A few days a go a man targeting the major judge in the country killed himself by accident shooting a bomb to the justice statue that reflected and exploded on him

What about LinkedIn? Is people jumping out of it?

I wonder if zero RPM is supported for Nvidia cards as well

I wonder if most of those countries people don’t speak either English or Spanish as a second language. As opposed to certain specific languages and countries were most people don’t have or use much a second language like for example in Japan or Brazil

And Kendrick Lamar

Yeah, I already can’t decide between keeping Innertune or RiMusic (needs some tweaks but after you customize it is great)

Yeah, I hear you. I couldn’t find yet a replacement for YouTube. It has quite a lot of content there, for the good and the bad, but some are quite helpful

I feel guilty, that is why I asked. Yesterday, I even posted a question on Reddit instead of here. I feel that I should believe more on the Lemmites

Agree. I miss not having an eGPU and a piercing community on Lemmy

Thanks, for some reason it doesn’t show anything for me

Should it be here?

It isn’t really a privacy alternative yet. They are open source and can be audited, they are implementing E2EE for DMs and Chats (Discord has for DMs). If Revolt gets the E2EE right they pass to be an interesting alternative.
