I like my frame because it faces a set of windows and with all my other tvs … I would have to close the blinds to see the tv in the day time.

However, the software is straight garbage. I didn’t even know about the favourite thing … every time I change source it would spend like a minute or two trying to figure out if it could connect to it for no reason.

The same songs and sound effects to some stupid reaction video.

Dear God. My friend sent me a video about some Japanese person with some cooking method or something that he recommended I should make try. The video he sent me was annoying as fuck. It was a couple screaming at each other: “OMG IS THAT THE NEW JAPANESE ____ METHOD?” “YES I THINK I’VE HEARD OF THAT” interspersed with the actual narration-free video. Had to stop it after 4-6 seconds.

I asked my friend how he could even stand watching it the video and he said his brain filters it out. I don’t know why it just repulsed me so much.

There’s also many videos with some person just playing another’s person’s video and they just point a finger upward to the actual playing video with some useless look on their face and the nodding.

I think this is the nature of these TikTok videos but I’m not really on TikTok much, I just get them sent to me every once in a while.

If you’re upset with my feedback, adjust your expectations.

💩 take

Yeah, I agree with Weird Al, you USE the NET to find a legal way but we’ll just have to wait for Roku.

That is a very fair statement.

Yeah, absolutely agreed.

Btw, you probably already know this, but if you don’t. The later versions of Node can run typescript natively. By “run”, I mean, it can run a subset of the language, if your project indirectly or indirectly references a file that has “decorators” or something like that, then you’ll need to use another compiler.

ts-node or tsx are runners that I use typically if I just want to “run” something. They’re basically zero config runners and I can debug with them with VS Code.

I’m a former .NET dev … I stopped quite a few years ago after I joined a Bay Area company. It was quite a change. React 1 was just coming out and I used to just write bad JS on my webpages and I had to rewrite our front-end in React. Also, ES5 or 6 or whatever was getting popular and we had to transition from CoffeeScript.

The JS world gave me whiplash after doing so many years of Enterprise .NET. The .NET tools felt so much more polished.

The fundamentals of Node to me were different than .NET. .NET felt like it had a lot more cruft and “magic” at first. With Node it felt deceptively simpler at first. Then when the require syntax was going away and we had imports but then it wasn’t a real import. It was a TypeScript import or a webpack import that did a require behind the scenes. Then I had to understand why we used typescript but then what was the point of tsc vs babel vs webpack vs esbuild what their roles were and I kind got a bit obsessed with understanding what they did and what was happening under the hood. Then Node officially did do import and I had to understand what that was all about and how it affected our compilers or bundlers.

Sorry I rant pointlessly. Godspeed on your journey!

Remember to add --enable-source-maps and as long as your tools are configured properly it should point to the right line!

I only heard about it through a YouTube recommendation. Very cool features. I may give it a whirl next.

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Zorin OS.

I always wonder about that because you need a lot of people to function in an “end of the world scenario”. It just feels like the ones that are doing the real work are the ones with the power in that case.

Reminds me of David Mitchell’s Rant Against Christmas (Christmasland Rant): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxeDQv4lE-o

“fatally stabbing”

They’re going with the battered wife syndrome in the defense but there’s been evidence of her repeatedly abusing him and he even said that he was going to die if he stayed in this relationship given the abuse he suffered.

I think even if you get Prime you still get ads unless you pay an extra monthly fee.

Correct, you couldn’t care less about anything that happens as long as it doesn’t affect you

I like how you know me so well. Like I wasn’t at the Palestinian protests last week in London yelling at the Met police for arresting perfectly innocent protestors.

I’ll leave it at this though single-issue voting is fucking stupid.

you’re just upset that you weren’t allowed to trade palestinian lives for your own comfort and security

Is that why I’m upset? Good thing she lost and palestinian lives are perfectly fine now.

Nah, Kamala had a stance on Palestine therefore this is the okay alternative. /s

Good thing that situation is completely resolved now /s
