Are you blind, or getting kickbacks for touting corporate bullshit?

As others have said, don't buy TVs for their smart features. Just use a streaming stick. They are easier to replace as software changes, and there's practically no real benefit to ever putting a TV online in the first place.

Also, LG panels are the best visual quality. You're doing good going the LG route. Just keep it offline.

I miss my e280... With Rockbox, it got me through high school, getting to play Pokémon Silver on it

I got a used Fuze v1 off of eBay that works only as long as it boots rb from SD card, the internal flash now dead

Might be too late for that, but BOY do I have a bridge to sell you!

I've been subscribed to the same family plan, since about 2014ish. I like it, but really don't appreciate that they raised the price for basically fuck all. Only reason I haven't canceled it is that creators I watch on YouTube get far more from me as a Premium user than ad-based viewership

Ever since that switch, I've just straight up used a discord bot. Hasn't failed me yet!

Of course, an argument can be made that this is the evolution of the number of companies that used a variance of "AAA" to appear first in the phone books of old

While you're not completely incorrect about it not being Linux's fault, trying to gatekeep "anywhere outside of Steam support" is just as unhelpful as game developers not focusing on Linux.

Does that same logic extend to not-Steam's ProtonDB, a 3rd party website for tracking how well games play on Linux using Proton?

Somehow, despite being chronically online since xkcd had only double digit comics, I have only just now discovered this webcomic. Thank you, random stranger, for posting this.

Ah, HTC... They were my first smartphone, though it was old school WinMo slider. I later had the m8, which I still miss dearly...

In addition to rsync as phx mentioned, you can use photorec to get a deeper scan

It breathed life into my Captivate and Infuse phones, beautifully at that. I miss the boldness of Android then.
