I just went to the Sceptre website, they have non-smart TVs listed. You just have to look at the listings. I’m sure there are other brands, I’ve just had good luck with Sceptre so I stopped looking.


I’m lucky enough to have the room for a TV and chair so I take advantage of it. Though I do mostly spend my time at the computer, so I have a small TV next tot he computer and just stream ad supported shows that I only half pay attention to. We all do what works for us.


I went with Sceptre, as for the specs, I’m half blind so all I can say is I can see everything clearly.


I mean that works too, I’m just not a fan of watching things on computer monitors. Sometimes I just want to sit in a recliner and watch a movie on a larger screen.


You can still buy dumb TVs you just have to search for them. You can also go off brand and get a dumb TV from a brand like sceptre.


Non-smart TVs are still available, they just cost a bit more. As for the connectivity issue, China has been caught hiding 5g chips in electrical control systems and city buses, and selling “free streaming” boxes with malware that scans networks and attacks targets deemed worth while. And all these TVs are being manufactured in China so why take the risk when you aren’t going to use the connectivity anyway?


This is why I don’t buy smart TVs in the first place.


You’re thinking long term strategy, YT is owned by Alphabet, a publicly traded company, they are only able to think in quarters. All that matters is short term gains for investors, and besides once the short term gains run out the investors will just dump the stock and move on to extracting what they can from the next company.

We choose to do these things not because they are easy, but because we thought they would be easy.


Not IT, but my fortune 500 employer has been on MS365 since my day one. Judging by the issues we fight with every day with those products, may God help you.


Same, I have the yearly subscription not because I use the features but because I want to support the project.
I’ll leave the subscription for now, but the second they start LastPassing things up I’m cancelling the subscription.
Also my start 9 has VaultWarden as an official app, I just haven’t seen the need to get it setup, now I do. I guess I know what I’m doing this weekend…


Their business is B2B now. Nadella is focused on that, gaming is a nice side business to him, and the home user wasn’t profitable enough to care about keeping.
Right now my fortune 500 employer is all in on Microsoft, they pay for around 200,000 Microsoft business licenses and about 2/3’s of those PCs also have a 365 business license, plus they have Microsoft servers with their own individual licenses in every state and almost every country. And that’s just one company, think about how many companies are all in on Microsoft and you can see why B2B is what he cares about.


He’s generating profit, that’s all that matters to the shareholders.


It’s ok, it’s real…now just tell me about the bunnies.


Indeed good sir, that would be quite comical.


My mom is a retired nursing instructor, I’ve picked up a few things over the years. This is going to be fun when a HIPA violation occurs via MS A.I.
Honestly any industry where you see confidential information or proprietary information, could pose a massive threat to customers. Just knowing how much of a product your competitors are shipping to a location can tell you a lot of what they are planning.


Traffic spikes, on the Internet? One in a million chance! Now tow cloudflare outside the environment and call it a day.
My former employer was a Delaware corporation, the company still has to pay our state taxes.
