Hardware wise, we're basically there. Especially since there's multiple recently-ist mainstream phones on which you can install Linux.

UI/UX seems to be a nightmare though, plus missing software

Awesome haha. ALmost exact same setup here, incl. OpnSense with an isolation vlan in which (brother) printer and TV are.

So "lacking reading comprehension" it is, then.

Do you just have bad reading comprehension, or are you being disingenuous?

Obviously there's Disney parks in other countries. I said as much above. But while there's also shittons of other parks both in and out of the US, why do you think you specifically chose to use:

some poor sod who’s been saving up for a decade to take his kids to disney most like

as an example for why people would travel to the US? Is it because

some poor sod who’s been saving up for a decade to take his kids to The Enchanted Island Amusement Park in Phoenix, Arizona most like

would have sounded like a ridiculous stretch?

Well... Same thing with Disney. The idea of saving up for a trip there for ten years, or the idea that Disney Land is something one has to experience, or is the ultimate vacation target,... is a uniquely US-American thing. Disney parks, to the rest of the world, are just another flavor of amusement park. If you're in the vicinity, sure, why not spend a day. But traveling across the Atlantic for it? No way, not worth it at all, we have amusement parks here.

  1. Es gibt viel Platz zwischen "Postfiliale oder nur mit Smartphone", zum Beispiel: Paketstationen zu 100% funktional ohne Smartphone;
  2. wir haben nur die Wahl Android oder Apple WEIL so viele lebenswichtige Dinge in beschissene Datenklau-Apps verpackt werden;
  3. bringen wie oben schon beschrieben diese Stationen für diverse Menschengruppen Probleme mit sich. Da ist es halt einfach Aufgabe von Staat und staatlichen Unternehmen, dafür zu Sorgen, dass das nicht passiert;
  4. es ist echt cute dass du denkst, diese Boxen sind technischer Fortschritt; die sind einfach bloß eine Kostensparmaßnahme

No, sorry, I said "Europe" because that's what the post was saying. What I meant (and probably should have said) is: US-Americans are uniquely fascinated with Disney parks. Sure there are also parks in other countries, and I am sure there are some people traveling to the US to go to Disney parks specifically, but this being the first and foremost example for "reasons why people might go to the US" is just funny to me.

Disney Land is far, FAR less popular with Europeans compared to the US.

I only use the Nvidia Shield remote. It obviously does everything on the Shield, plus tv on/off, and volume. Then I remapped the Netflix button on it to open a little quick actions menu to select brightness/picture mode levels.

Haven't touched the lg remote since

Incredible. What a shit idea.

Anyways, kids, remember: never let your smart devices talk to the internet. We actually love our LG OLED - it's fantastic hardware. But it has not once, and never will, get the chance to phone home.

Ist das eine "Wenn ich einen Nickel für jedes Mal hätte, dass eine Frau namens Hannah mir das Herz gebrochen hat, hätte ich zwei Nickel. Was nicht viel ist, aber es ist trotzdem seltsam, dass ss zweimal passiert ist"-Situation?
