Technology@lemmy.world•People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with adsEnglish
1·1 month agoI know, that’s what I do. It’s just so bloat ridden it’s 5 clicks with a shitty remote to switch inputs. I want a tv with no UI, just a power button, volume, channel, and input. Maybe a menu for color settings. The menus on mine are built to push me to one app or another. Every time I turn it on I have to navigate pop ups and prompts trying to get me to connect it and spend money on one app or another. I just want to go to HDMI 1.

10·1 month agoAnyone know a good TV on the market now? I don’t need ultra resolution. I want it unsmart. I need it to switch between HDMI inputs.
Been nothing but satisfied with proton. I bought a years worth at once. The flatpack I got installed and works without issue. The only gripe I have is I can’t figure out how to make it (mint) boot up with wiregaurd/proton as the default.

41·1 month agoIdk, there’s that old saying “never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.” And having interacted with the airline industry in this country it’s not hard to imagine. Not that I’d put this past the current powers that be. But without more information we’ll probably never get it’s hard to say.

264·1 month agoRacism and xenophobia aside, how many humans do we need? Our poor earth. A declining population is probably an ok thing. I think it’s the capitalist class ringing the alarm bell as they see their profit forecasts take a blow. How many hundreds of millions should that island hold?

News@lemmy.world•Alabama priest investigated after woman alleges ‘private companionship’ arrangement beginning at 17
9·3 months agoI guess for most of history they were allowed to have mistresses. An arrangement I’m sure was also rife with abuse.
The original idea as far as I understand it, was to prevent dynasties emerging within the church. Making the church a thing that “rose above nations”, not just another country with a pointy hat for a crown.
But yes, I agree. Let the priests fuck (consenting adults) already.

News@lemmy.world•Trump Says Epstein ‘Stole’ Underage Victim from Mar-a-Lago Spa
8·4 months agoI don’t know. I think children benefit from some labor. Not like down the coal mine labor, certainly not whatever the fuck trump and his pedophile buddies got going on.
But being part of a functioning, productive unit. Maybe learn a practical skill or two. Burn off some energy and build some muscle.
I have managed a building with 8 units before. Never again.
I once had a lady’s ceiling collapse. I then come to learn she’s been putting a bucket out to catch water for months, never told anyone about it. What should have been a quick 15 minute fix ended up being a total nightmare.
Had one dude who was a heroin addict. Kept flushing needles. The plumbing had to be taken apart multiple times to get his needles out.
Had a lady who kept adopting cats, wouldn’t get them fixed. She would then let them out into the hall to spray the walls with what was basically straight ammonia, except grosser.
I could go on all day, trash fires, fucking litter, a phycological inability to break down cardboard. I think my blood pressure just spiked writing this.
You couldn’t pay me to be a landlord. People are awful.
