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.

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.

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.

So long as you use a Gecko- (Firefox) or Chromium-based browser, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. There is no WebKit (Safari) support.

Similar thing happened where I live with porn. Recently passed a law requiring ID. Instead of complying, I just started going to different websites. No way am I giving up my identity to a sketchy porn site, no matter what the law says.

Old reddit is a lot more tolerable if you’re using it with RES. You probably already knew that, but I figure I’d say something just in case.

I used to prefer CRTs too… And then I got an OLED. Nothing else comes close, not even the best CRTs. Especially if it’s got quantum dots in combination with OLED.

Given that input lag was already solved five years ago, really the only advantage CRTs still have left is their ability to look great at non-native resolutions. But upscaling filters like HQX/xBR for retro games, and DLSS/FSR for modern titles, have all but completely eliminated that last remaining advantage. These filters are really good at upscaling lower resolution content to fit your display’s pixels. Hell, DLSS is so good that it looks better than native 4K.

Did they ever have flavor?
I remember being disappointed by them as far back as the mid 90s.

YouTube Music ReVanced is best, because it’s both free and ad-free.

Unfortunately you have to sacrifice on sound quality, because it’s YouTube. However the song selection can not be beat by any other platform.

Touché.

I upvote comments I like that contribute to the conversation; downvote dumb jokes and people just trying to get easy upvotes. And also comments I don’t like/disagree with, though I try avoiding that if I can help it cause it’s bad etiquette (especially if it contributes to the discussion).

Too* dumb.

Late 30s; got tired of getting constantly banned for every god damn thing. When they killed off my favorite reddit app that was the last straw.

Fuck reddit and fuck that little pedophile Spez.
