Morbid the Corvid

Just don’t connect smart TVs to the internet. Get something cheap like a raspberry pi + wireless mouse/keyboard or an android TV box for the same functionality. (More functionality, actually)

I got one as a gift. So dumb. Just what a I need in mug: IoT and a charger! /s Plus, I can just microwave a normal mug to heat it back up, but not this. And forget about the dishwasher.

…except now that I’ve used it. It’s pretty fucking nice not having to go over to the microwave when I inevitably forget about my drink. And if I use the charger as a coaster. That battery is always topped up. So, I understand its appeal.

Tl;dr: It’s dumb, but it’s also actually quite nice. I certainly wouldn’t buy myself one, but I enjoy using mine.

My '21 Malibu had it out of the box. I can’t speak for Car Play, but wireless Android Auto is 95% flawless. There’s that 5% where I get in and the phone won’t connect automatically. But I think it’s an issue on the phone side. I have to unlock the phone then it kicks in.

I’d like to add the OGL they were pushing would have effectively allowed them to steal homebrew and 3rd party content. They’d reserve the right to resell this content as their own or make it disappear altogether.

This would include supplements and adventures, of course, but the way it was worded, it would even include blogs and YouTube videos, etc.

Of course this isn’t a unique situation (Meta has done this forever, for example)

You could totally do something TaskMaster style.
