Yeah but how can you tell that you’re getting the right charger for your phone? No two chargers are the same; they have different wattage ratings and use different charging standards.

If you grab any old charger without knowing the model number, it’ll charge your phone, sure, but not necessarily at its maximum possible charging speed unless you get lucky or take extra time to examine and research each charger until you find the right one. And I don’t know about you, but I’d feel awkward about pulling out my phone to Google random chargers while digging through a lost and found box with the employee just standing there. I rather just spend the money on a compatible charger designed for my phone’s charging standard.

Makes me wonder what a telescope the size of a solar system could see. How large of the telescope do you think it would take to be able to get a clear image of this planet?

OOH in the name of LOVE

Have they considered zooming their telescope in enough until they can see for themselves firsthand?

As in the low number of brain cells you have left after making such a stupid comment? If so then I agree with you.

$20 says you can’t even define what “woke” means. Hint: it doesn’t mean “things I don’t like nor understand because I’m a bigot”.

I’m in the minority but I agree with anon. As a kid I was always looking towards the future when it came to gaming. As soon as 3D gaming hit the mainstream, I pretty much abandoned 2D games for the next 20 years. I’m a graphics whore, and as such, I’m always looking forward to the latest and greatest AAA games to see how much they can push the limits of what’s visually possible.

If the AAA industry magically collapses, I will probably quit gaming.

Edit: See what I mean? It’s a very unpopular opinion to express, but it’s my opinion.

When the “woke” mania swept the country in 2020, I took a step back and reevaluated where I stood and why I stood there. To my surprise, I found that I agreed with conservatives and libertarians on a number of issues. I opposed childhood gender transitions, unlawful and divisive DEI mandates, and the excesses of Critical Race Theory.

Didn’t make it very far into the article; I had to stop reading right there. I can’t handle this much ignorance and bigotry. What a fucking clown. 🤡

Oh I thought they meant “Brazil” as in the country. 'Cause even without your context, the comment still makes sense lol

Which LG model specifically? Because I’m a fan of LG OLEDs and I’ve never heard of this. It’s definitely not a thing in their C and G line of TVs.

April Fools was a week ago; why the hell is this post still on the front page?

Exactly. It’s going to take me 30 minutes to an hour to get it all out, regardless of whether or not I have reading material with me, so I rather have something to do than sit there bored.

Yes I’ve tried increasing my fiber intake. Doesn’t work. Told my doctor and he wasn’t interested.

Chevy Bolt

Cheap, reliable, not the ugliest EV in the world. They’re under appreciated right now so a fully loaded model with low miles goes for about $10K.

Dude you’re the one gaslighting. I was raised by people like you; I’m not falling for it.

Provide me just one example of such a TV, and I’ll shut up. But I already know you can’t.

I feel you. I never liked the “ugly cartoon” aestic. Even if I enjoy the characters/plotlines, it distracts me so much and hurts my enjoyment of the media somewhat. Some TV examples include: Ren and Stimpy, the closeups in SpongeBob, Anything by Klasky Csupo (Rugrats, Wild Thornberrys, and especially Aaahh!!! Real Monsters), and everyone’s pupils in Rick and Morty.

Why is her nose shaped kinda like a Plumbob?

There is no such thing as a TV that blocks you from using it without an internet connection. I promise you there is an option to continue without connecting, unless you specifically purchased an ad-supported display that requires you to go online so it can serve you ads (and so far every TV that tried to pull that crap has failed to sell).

You’re making up problems in your head again. Stop doing that.

Not on my experience. I simply set my LG OLED to HDMI 1 and leave it there. I don’t own a Blu Ray player nor any game consoles, so one input for my PC is all I need. TV boots up like a monitor and immediately displays the desktop. I never see the smart crap ever.

If you have to for your particular model, you can always get a service remote and put the TV into Hotel Mode, then from that menu, disable the smart features completely, and program the TV to default to your input of choice every time you boot it up. Every TV in existence has Hotel Mode, and thus is capable of doing this.

Just don’t connect it to the internet. Smart TV is now dumb TV. It really is that simple.

IDK I don’t use Apple products out of principle, but given Apple’s history of creating bullshit restrictions for no reason, I wouldn’t be surprised.
