It’s not a bad TV. And if it was just watching movies or something I definitely wouldn’t care about 120hz, but it’s just so much better for gaming.
I’m not a purist, like I said I’m rocking a TCL which is low end, but I’ve come to appreciate some level of specs I can’t go back on.
You literally just linked me a 60hz business display. The thing I said was the only thing I could find and ruled out…
You saw nothing! ＼(°o°)／ Ever since I added my Welsh keyboard my autocorrect just doesn’t even try anymore on my phone.
If you have a link or can tell me what store to walk in and get a dumb TV with even half the quality of my current TV I will take it. I could only find business displays which were all stuck at 60hz or had a color spectrum and contrast so bad my ten year old laptop IPS screen beat them.
Dude, touch grass and calm down. You’re putting a lot of words in my mouth and completely missing the point which is why you’re getting down voted.
I’ve pushed back on “smart” TVs so much. My point was if your issue with TCL is the ads you should rightfully have issues with every TV. They’re all shoving ads, they’re all analysing watched content. This isn’t a TCL specific thing at all was my only point.
Also disconnecting from internet is a direct way of fighting back against that abuse. You’re not giving them those analytics or ad space. Sure you can choose to not buy any TV but I clearly keep overestimating people’s intelligence and didn’t think I needed to spell out every possible option in a quick comment.
Fuck I hate the braindead keyboard warriors the internet has enabled.
You mean the stuff every TV has these days? I also never hook mine to the internet so not really a problem. I haven’t seen a single ad in the year I’ve had mine
They’ve really worked to turn that around with their TVs. They’re entry level still sure, but for the price it’s hard to beat and their quality control on them has taken a big step up.
My understanding is the large AI companies sign purchase agreements with the manufacturers for X amount of drives. The manufacturers then take whatever chips/platters and build those drives. The AI companies have signed such large agreements that all the chips and layers are going to whatever drives they’re asking for and none left to make consumer drives.
Until you buy twelve to hold each color you want to swap between daily and build an ink collection that could float the Titanic because this blue shades different from that blue.
It’s so fun though.
We could cut that way down if I could just repair and replace parts more. We’ve gone so single use commodity on all this tech and don’t repurpose or repair like we should.
I feel like I’m starting to see it die down some. There’ll always be pockets but it seems when people ask for which distro they just get advice and not flame wars as much
Guardrails only go so far when the underlying system is inherently flawed. AI is inherently flawed. A hallucination itself could kill someone vulnerable and you can’t prompt your way out of that.
AI chatbots have been shown to hurt people with mental health issues. They lean towards sycophantic inherently with the built in commands and possibly through the training data itself.
I appreciate the spirit of trying to help your fellow man, I truly do. But this is more dangerous than worth it.
When you have people actively trying to poison the training data and lobbying to ban AI chat bots and protesting the data centers in droves, that’s resistance.
This increase is due to the cost of copper and tin shooting up. Copper is up 45% over the past year. Coolers are basically nothing but copper. Copper is hitting record highs due to much larger economic pressures too large for a Lemmy comment. So like if you want to find untapped copper vein and start a mining company then yeah you can lower the price but that’s about the only way right now.
Maybe if they were willing to even touch the user manual or ask a question instead of just going “it’s broke” we wouldn’t blame them.
Only when it’s an ID-10T error being thrown.
Think of wine as an emulator. It’s a program that runs in Linux that then runs Windows programs. Usually quite well. It’s all done without leaving Linux.
Dual boot is when you start the computer up you can either boot into Linux or Windows, both are options but they don’t run at the same time.
Although I agree with you, you chose a poor example.
Kilo doesn’t mean 1024, that’s kibi. Many of us in tech differentiate because it’s important.
Except MS seems to be acknowledging they caused it https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/19764
