  • I just wanna say I appreciate when a wholesome/earthporn post gets on the frontpage and as I’m typing this I just noticed it’s on Shitpost lol I may have misunderstood the purpose of this community.

    Anyway, we talk a lot about The Circumstances, but it’s nice to remember that one of The Circumstances is a not-yet-fucked environment and this is a pretty nice planet sometimes.




  • TCL TVs (whose OS is just Roku, and I imagine Roku is the same situation) blink the front LED as an Error when there’s no network connection or it can’t hit whatever servers it has configured for FW update check. It can get stuck on partial firmware updates when it can’t cokplete every check it wants to make. The LED has a diffuser on it so it’s a significant negative impact.

    I can’t even tape that LED because that’s also where the IR sensor is. My next step is to disassemble the thing and snip snip.

    I don’t use any smart features, just HDMI input like you. Finding a Dumb TV has been a challenge.
