…what if I WANT a big titty goth gf?

Smart TV OSes help TV-makers stay afloat in an industry with thin margins on hardware. Not only do they provide ad space, but they also give OS operators and their partners information on how people use their TVs—data that is extremely valuable to advertisers.

I turn my tv on, turn it to whatever channel, and then I just go about my business. I even leave the house. Go to work. Ect.

So if I had a smart tv, I they would get info like “oh, he’s been watching tv for 36 hours straight…”

Meanwhile, I may have watched 3 hours combined at different times.

Oh, you want to pay these companies more money, because more people are watching? Ok…but I’m not even home. I’ve been at work for 5 hours. I just turn the TV on so it looks like someone is home.

Will this finally answer the age old question:

What does the fox say?

Does it have to be companies? Could individual people just have 15k, and join? We just need 81 new members.

Well how do YOU connect your NES up to your TV then???

it looks like the AI bubble collapse is basically here.

FINALLY.

Cool. That’s a quality contribution to this disscussion. Really adds a layered nuanced perspective to the topic at hand.

GUYS! WE’RE GOING TO BE OKAY! STOY SAYS THEY DON’T CARE BECAUSE IT DOESN’T AFFECT THEM!!! WE’RE SAVED!!!

I’m not ICE, but in my state you need digital ID verification for that.

I’m releasing a new chipset structure. It’s not Intel. It’s not AMD. It’s BUTTS BUTTS BOOTYS.

So now all the best games will run on BUTTS BUTTS BOOTYS, and journalists will have to call it that.

Napster was audio only. Did you mean limewire, or kazaa, or one of the many napster clones that came after?

I think pancakes COULD kill you. You just need enough of them. Like imagine 2 tons of pancakes fell from the sky, and right onto you.

I will have a taco!

I mean…by that logic their ramblings make sense. Porn to them is child porn. So if all porn is child porn (in their minds) then blocking access to porn isn’t a bad idea.

The whole thing falls apart however if they were to realize that most people DO look at porn, but most people DON’T look at child porn.

I watch porn most days. I’ve never in my life had any desire to restrict others ability to watch porn.

But then again, porn for me is a woman fucking a dude in the ass, or 4 women standing around another woman who’s tied up and they’re tickling her until she screams bloody murder.

You know. Normal shit. Harmless shit. Fill in the blank of your own kinks, but at no point do kids come into play in my mind.

If I equated “porn” to “child porn” then yeah, I’d be trying to pass those laws too. But that says more about the way they think than anything.

Especially when you consider that schools are one of the most common places for public shootings, but you don’t see them racing out to pass common sense gun reform laws.

It’s such a hard problem to tackle, when you’re self defeating in your attempts. No other country has this issue.

drop a copy of bad babysitters 5 in every DVD player in best buy

Soooooo, 0 dvd players? Best Buy stopped carrying physical media years ago.

Oh, I can think of a few reasons.

You know it’s bad when even I switch to linux. I don’t understand linux. I literally back up my entire hard drive everytime I attempt to do ANYTHING. Because I WILL screw up my whole system to the point it won’t boot. I’ve done it many times over the coarse of the past year.

Then I gotta spend a whole day waiting for things to restore from backup. And then whatever I WAD trying to do, still isn’t done.

That has been my experience using linux this past year.

But Windows 11? No.

…really hoping this comment is dripping with sarcasm.

Lawmakers Want to Ban VPNs—And They Have No Idea What They’re Doing

Of all the states, I wasn’t expecting Washington.

Alabama? Sure.

Mississippi? I can see that.

Georgia? Yeah, ok.

Washington? Of all the states, WASHINGTON??? Oh god damn…

No no. Keep them. Add a webcan for streaming, and charge money to watch

I know some people who shoot and hunt their own venison. Some people moved over to butcher shops. But no one is finding roadkill and saying “oh man, I gotta get in on that”
