Your Smart TV Knows What You’re Watching
  • A TV that is not connected to the internet is effectively just a large monitor.

    I understand that some TVs lock functionality and coerce you into connecting it to the network, but most of them function well as monitors. I know it's tempting to make use of the "smart" features since it's included, but if you care about privacy, it's better to keep it off the internet.

  • Future Insight – The Jenkins
  • That happened in the previous loop. This time-traveller ruined his life with hookers and blow, so instead of giving his younger self quick riches, he gave solid financial advice instead.

  • What is an item below 100 bucks that everyone should own?
  • If your back is constantly itchy, it's possible that you could benefit from exfoliating your skin. I use these salux cloths for my back and all over when I shower. My back scratching tool is now collecting dust and also, my keratosis pilaris issues went away after about a year.

  • Replace 1 TB m.2 SSD with 2 TB m.2 SSD
  • I just wanted to chime in to say that I used clonezilla today to move my 250G ssd to 1TB. It was easy and fast. I used ventoy (a usb iso loader) to load stable clonzilla live.

  • What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?
  • "Never underestimate the power of denial."

    ― Ricky Fitts (American Beauty)

  • Ubuntu trying to install snap AND Firefox even though I have removed them a year back
  • As a longtime Debian user, Steam can work really well on Debian, but rarely there are some things that fall between the cracks when some packages get updated. There's also a bit of latest-and-greatest envy because Debian (even testing) is a little bit behind. If you're only using your computer for Steam, look elsewhere. If you want a mostly reliable desktop computer and are okay with occasional hiccups, Debian is pretty awesome. Honestly, any computer you use will run into some issues eventually. If you get familiar with the Debian way of doing things, you're gonna have a good time!
