still mad about smart TVs. that shit should be in a separate box like you can literally buy one of them androidtv boxes for £30. it doesn’t need its own ip address it doesn’t need its own app store it doesn’t need to replicate the functionality every device plugged into it already has
Smart TVs are one of the great evils of the modern era tbh. If I wanted spyware on my TV I should have to download it myself
i keep promising myself i won’t become another technophobe yelling about those “dang newfangled machines” or whatever. that i won’t Get Worse until going back to punchcards unironically seems like a good idea. that i’ll enjoy new things as they come out.
but so much is actively evil, hostile or otherwise enshittified. i don’t want to track my greebles with splorp i don’t want to pay a teehee subscription to get round cacophany’s file limits i don’t need 17 ways to skrimple my scronk 7 of which secretly activate scrungly plus ultimate i don’t need to link it to my flowolf account i don’t want to manage it with the flowby mowby i don’t care if poob does or does not has it for me. i don[’t care
i want a big screen whose ENTIRE job is to show me whatever device i plug into it. and also audio. i want to save my documents. on the computer. that i’m using. i want to own the media i buy. i want tech that is fat, properly cooled, simpler, serviceable by a normal person, and not forcing me to constantly select the “onlly spy on me a little bit” box every couple weeks.
