I have a network enabled model from Brother and it's never once shown up on my pi-hole. I'm a fan for life. Will never buy an HP printer again.

flips table YOU POINTED OUT THE MISTAKE??!!!

I guess next you're gonna tell me that Olive Garden isn't Italian.

This is more for people like me who already have one and still need to use it as a monitor, but want to make sure that Roku never collects another bit of data from us.

There is no such thing as fate. Life is what it is. Make the best of it.

thisbenzingring, you ever been to a Turkish bathhouse?

Paying off the last of my credit card debt.

He'd cook it to order, plate it beautifully, then bring it out and slap you in the face with it.

Summary judgment seems unlikely given the vagueness of the email. But maybe it gives Taylor more incentive to offer a decent settlement to Kytch. If it goes to trial, will be interesting to see how it plays out.

I've seen plenty of wait staff show up to defend tipping in Reddit threads. They'd rather shame customers than demand fair wages from their employers. Or maybe they were all just bots.

I scroll through all/hot a couple times a week and I don't find the content nearly as funny, interesting or engaging as it used to be. There's definitely something different about the algorithm that is making the content more sanitized for a wider audience.

I finally got my time machine to work!

That has more to do with farming practices though, not plastic pollution.

C'mon man. It was right there.

Your version of the 8th would literally undo all religion (and a bit of science).

On mine, the piece that shoots water extends when in use and retracts out of the way when not.

It's called coal ash, and we're still paying Duke Energy to not clean up their own mess.

It's worse than the mic. They're taking screenshots and sending them to a server that analyzes the image to determine what you're watching.

From this link:

"A factory reset returns the TV to its original, out-of-the-box state. Performing a factory reset will remove all stored personal data relating to your settings, network connections, Roku data, and menu preferences."

It depends. Using OPs scenario, if all data, ads and updates, are served from data.samsung.com, then the pi hole can't help. But if ads are served from ads.samsung.com and updates from updates.samsung.com, then you can blacklist the ads while still receiving the updates.

My experience with a Vizio is that the pi is blocking a lot of the "phoning home" connections, but the ads seem to be integrated with the software that allows me to use apps, so I still see them when I use the TV's apps. More and more though, I'm using the HDMI port with my HTPC.

I'd watch me some Tornado Alley Trailer Park Wives.

"Please review the attached guide, which can be conveniently found on our website." This translates to, "Stop wasting my time by asking me basic fucking questions that you could easily find the answers to on your own!"

So in November I have to choose between human rights abuses or human rights abuses plus rising fascism. Fucking hell.

I think what happened to Yelchin is a separate issue. The joystick was still a physical object that gave tactile feedback. The design was fine, but GM flushed the mouse on the implementation.

Where we have a bigger problem is when common vehicle controls are just an image on a screen, and a driver has to take their eyes off the road to do something simple like change the A/C temperature or skip a song track.

The location and orientation of the wipers and high beams always takes a few days to get used to.

I couldn't find a Community community on Lemmy, so I made one. Come join me and the one other person who's subscribed so far.

The T after the 8 is superfluous.

I think the assumption in Pasta4u's scenario is that home charging overnight is not an option.

Rob has no "testimony". Rob has questioned Bob's statement without making any attempt to see things from Bob's perspective or to ask Bob about his suffering. Rob, and by Rob I mean you, lack any empathy or curiosity that would open him to any possibility of understanding another person's struggles.

I'm on the last season of a Fraiser rewatch. For a show that last aired 20 years ago and lasted 11 full seasons, I'm surprised at how well it holds up and how consistently funny it is.

Also just finished season 2 of The Morning Show on Apple. Wasn't nearly as good as the first season, and I've heard that season 3 is even worse. Think I might be done with this one.

Over the weekend I did a triple feature of Saltburn, The Holdovers and Next Goal Wins. The Holdovers was the clear standout of the three. Really solid writing and great performances from everyone involved.

You should've just downloaded some more RAM for her.

Imagine your brain triggering a phantom itch but you having no limbs to scratch with.

All ads from the various companies that have hired Matthew McConaughey to teach me the art of zen or something.

If you think ants won't jump on some beans and toast...

There would be a class action lawsuit where lawyers take two thirds of the settlement and those affected would get enough for a fancy Starbucks coffee.

I stopped watching local news when they started having the anchors pitch to ads like they were just another news item.
