All ads are garbage. There’s no such thing as a good ad. They are in place to push an entities will upon you, there is no upside to any ad for the viewer. Firefox and Ublock Origin for safety and sanity.

Didn’t think about that, thanks.

Disconnected my TV from the Internet. I stream media from a PC on my lan to Kodi running on a fire stick. Setup openwrt to drop all packets to wan from the fire stick. These companies can get fucked and if they ever figure out a way to stop me from owning my devices, I’ll just take up some new hobbies and be done with it all.

Logitech’s quality has been steadily dropping. Got fed up with thumb trackball buttons failing in less than 2 years. Logitech was my go to for most computer peripherals, but I just can’t justify replacing all my family’s trackballs every two years at $60 a pop.

Switched over to Elecom because they are one of the only brands selling wired thumb trackballs and so far they are great. It’s unfortunate, my first Logitech trackball lasted at least 10 years. It never broke, just got lost in a move. Used to love their stuff but, the only thing left from the Logitech I bought my first trackball from is the name.

This should be a jailable crime.

Every product that has overtaken another has started in single digits. This is hardly a point at all.

You can go in to settings and select what search engines to pull from. The defaults on that instance may not be sufficient.
