They're called commercial displays, and the only major problem with them is they cost substantially more than smart tvs because consumer smart tvs are sold much much cheaper on the assumption by the manufacturer that they will make it up on telemetry sales and ads. Right now it still makes more sense to buy the smart tv and never give it internet access and use a box like an appletv. if they start forcing online and more ads etc into smart tvs though it'll start making more sense to buy the commercial display. If you really want one btw I reccomend you go buy a used one on ebay, a lot cheaper

Arstechnica, both its main news and its forums, is my top answer for that. Fark a bit too, it is really the last aggregator+discussion thread standing of the /. and similar era that still functions as it did (I dont count /. As functioning as it did both because new users cant easily register and because the regular reader audience has cratered over the years) Reddit obviously depending on your interests there are subreddits for everything Iâ(TM)ve heard some good things about soylent news but I feel like its so limited in audience to former /.ers that its not really a good alternative if and when /. dies

I get what youre saying but this is actually a thing. One action the Trump admin and the GOP did this go round is manage to get rid of the federal subsidies for buying solar panels and battery storage, but left the subsidies in place for companies that will install the panels and lease them to the homeowner.

The weakness of our system has always been the powerful executive, which is what Trump is now exploiting. For most of what weâ(TM)d think of as the heights of US power, expansion of civil rights, etc, and about half the entire history of the country under our current constitution period, that was significantly constrained by Humphries, which SCOTUS just chucked in the trash. Most countries that have tried to replication our governmental structure end up with authoritarians, because of exactly what we are seeing now. Parliamentary systems are actually generally more resilient

They renamed it because the new P cores sit in the middle. There are now âoesuperâ cores which are what the old performance cores were, efficiency cores, which stayed the same, and new âoeperformanceâ cores that are in between. Naming scheme is wonky but itâ(TM)s not that difficult to understand

...that use is even as high as it is is that google shoved their, often wrong, AI summary into the top slot on searches by default. I wouldnt necessarily call the current AI landscape a fad, there's plenty of good uses for LLMs, but the current trend of "shove AI into everything" feels a lot like the whole "shove blockchain into everything" trend from a few years back but a lot bigger, and I think people are kinda getting sick of it
