… I actually wonder if the graphics cards could multiplex across multiple dp to a single display.

I started to do it to keep the dog dirt out of my sheets. It’s the first time I have ever done this in my life. I now feel like an adult.

“fuck you im gonna die before the ramifications for my actions harm anyone”

The reason they moved back is because Excel.

The assumption is that legitimate companies who sell software will sign it and that signature proves it came from that company who you trust because of their publicly known legitimacy. It’s a bit of circular reasoning. But it does round back towards that legitimacy - if it is found that they violate your trust, they lose public trust and thus lose sales.

Luckily new OSes (cough NOT WINDOWS) are able to sandbox applications and prevent them from accessing resources without declaring the need to access it.

And as for the signing certificate, I think the MS Store will allow any signed app. They just offer the cheaper signing service.

That makes for bad gift giving imo because then they could’ve just gone out and bought something for themselves.

I do the same thing and I am lauded within my family as an excellent gift giver.

Did anyone find it suspicious that the FBI didn’t identify and publish a direct motive? Do you think the reason for his nutjob behavior was somehow covered up by the FBI because of the administration?

You could let people host their own as a method of scaling. But that limits it to geeks like us.

Use kubernetes and let it scale and pay for hosting on cdns.

Yeah I think no one stops to ask who those silicon valley jerks sell our data to. The answer is anyone. Including big brother who otherwise cannot legally collect it - but it’s legal now because a company did it and we bought it!

It’s not an apples to apples comparison. This was a reddit post made by someone who went out of their way to buy things for different amounts to make ragebait.

It’s a dumb post and it is safe to ignore it. Sadly someone reposted it here.

I very nearly bought one back in the day. Instead I opted for an mp3 player with compact flash storage. I believe I was tired of my cd based walkman’s tendency to skip when I was moving so I wanted a smaller, non-moving drive.

Then my dumbass bought one of those compact flash drives with an internal platter harddrive.

Those displays are not televisions - they are for menus at restaurants. They cost a fortune because they are low volume, high reliability devices that come with service contracts and repairable components.

OK how do I go about getting Roku to refund me for my TVs? That sounds like an excellent approach to take.

There is no hardware reset switch and in order to perform a software reset you need to get to the menu and to do that, you have to agree to the terms.

Yeah, computer monitors are manufactured to a different spec than television displays at the pixel level. This is usually called chroma subsampling.

Computer monitors typically are 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 which gives nice crisp and legible fonts. Anything less than 4:4:2 gives me a headache (also Windows…).

Television displays are usually 4:2:0. That’s fine for rendering large text that is visible across the room. But trying to edit a word document would be a terrible experience.

I believe they manufacture the television panels with fewer pixel address lines and that reduces the cost. Also, smart TVs sell ads and your usage patterns which are used to subsidize the cost of the tv.

That’s why computer monitors are so much more expensive than televisions.

HDMI CEC will let your other devices turn on the monitor and switch inputs as appropriate. You’ll need some kind of AVR to play audio. Plenty of low cost, highly capable solutions out there like the WIIM Amp that lets you use multiple sources such as your PC or a dedicated streaming set top box.

The downside is those are meant to be ultrabright for viewing in a highly lit restaurant counter with a really slow refresh rate and they tend to cost thousands of dollars. They are simply not meant for use as a display for movies and games.

Sounds like a good way to get a new tv and move away from roku. They’re really piling on the ads lately and making their os really slow.

Dang… mine is on 12.5.5 and the newest they support is 9.4.0
