If the tv is connected to the internet it can track you even if you’re using an external device via ACR technology. If you keep the tv offline you will be fine.

This only matters if you use the embedded functions of the TV. Your TV should be a display, nothing more. Buy an Apple TV. Get the apps you want. Swap to input.

On the other hand, he wasn’t wrong.

As someone whose ancestors are actually from this continent I say if they don’t like it they can go back where they came from.

Whats truly annoying is that this story glosses over how incredibly complicated the power grid truly is. Add to that renewable energy that is anything but reliable, and you get utter chaos.

Doesn’t help what? Did you read the article? There almost certainly wasn’t a need for the rolling blackouts in the first place, so I’m not sure what purpose you expect nuclear energy—which produces an immense amount of dangerous waste that we have no safe way to dispose of—to have served in this particular situation.

Translation: We can’t micro-manage our under paid contractors if they are wfh. We don’t trust these people to earn their meager salaries without our management teams standing over them, so we just sent them home with no remote access.

Fuck Facebook. I’m sure the moderators can do the same job at home provided they have Internet access. Also fuck Facebook and its subsidiaries.

This ‘family as performance’ shit is angering in ways I cannot reasonably put into words using my mushy quarantine brain.

If nothing else, it knocks a huge gust of wind out of the sails of the Godbotherers by taking away one of their favorite conversion victories. In a way, it’s like a sports team having one of its championships vacated.

Whocouldaknowed offshoring everything under the sun could be a national security problem?

SO, I had COVID and let me tell you how much it suuuuucked.

Bye!

I wish they’d giv’em a tug and stop him in the middle of his dumbassery. “Woah, woah, woah. Ok Donny, time for you to STFU.” I really believe the person that did this would be seen as a hero, trying to save the lives of idiots about to squeeze Lysol wipe juice into their arms.

They could speak up and defy him, but the next day, they’d be gone and he would still be there. They need to keep those neutral faces to stay in their position. In subsequent interviews, they can tell the truth to the press. It must be painful to sit there and not yank the microphone out of his hands. Only good…
