I guess I better go dust off my Yahoo and AOL emails, Assuming this happens we’ll probably need to change to one of their logins.
Yes I know, use Firefox, but on my cheapo Chromebook I use at night for streaming that isn’t an option
Also, I can’t imagine Verizon and Apollo are going to have a heart and fix Chrome, more like they want that sweet sweet data.
They didn’t buy Vizio because they like TV’s, they did it because they like data harvesting. They are an advertising tech bro giant, just more quiet about it.
You need to run something like AntiSplit-M to make the split package into an APK that is usable.
I’m not affiliated with that program, it’s just the one that I was linked to when I had similar questions about split apks. So use it at your own risk obviously.
Do I need a Plex Pass AND a Remote Watch Pass?
No. To stream personal content remotely from a Plex Media Server, you only need one of the following:
The admin account for the Plex Media Server has an active Plex Pass Your account has an active Plex Pass Your account has an active Remote Watch Pass
From the blog post it looks like users that share should be fine so long as the server host has an active Plex Pass account. Link
It appears to be device dependent, some have the initial online setup requirements, even the Community Forum on Roku’s site tells a poster they will need to setup with the internet connection and then can disconnect after setting it up.
Last post in this thread with a response by a former moderator.
You will need an internet connection and a Roku account to activate your Roku TV.
…
Once the activation is complete, you can disconnect from the internet and continue to use your TV
I’m sorry slazer2au but our employment AI noticed you slacking off today, we’re going to need to terminate your employment at this time.
For real, at least in a lot of the southern US, companies look out for anyone that discusses unionization and will find a reason to fire them. At-will employment is a curse. My favorite busting technique is the tried and true “Who needs a union? We’re a family here.” Followed by a pizza party instead of a real bonus.
I’ve read some comments on other articles about this saying that by using cash and avoiding the loyalty card they won’t have the data that shows how often you buy certain products and if you buy them at regular price or only during sales. I don’t know if that’s true, but it does seem somewhat logical to me that the AI is going to use your past purchases against you, they already use that same idea to send me paper coupons once a month based on stuff I usually buy.
As far as I know Apple didn’t give in, Trump and the FBI wanted it during his first term but I don’t think it happened. At least I hope it didn’t.
Global access is wild, basically it means if the UK could force this that any five eyes country would then have the same access without needing to look bad to their citizens.
Also, how hard do we expect Apple to fight this? I have a hard time believing they would just pull out of the UK but I could be wrong. From what I understand China has this type of access because they don’t allow E2EE.
I’m shocked I say, shocked… well not that shocked.
I think the most interesting part of that whole thing was the people at AdGuard and Privacy Badger apparently believing the advertising company wasn’t going to hurt them.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Don’t apologize, this shit is rage inducing.
It’s not official until the Government enters it into the Geographic Names Information System. Once that happens Google will begin changing their maps.
Reddit doesn’t have much of a choice than to fight this. If they roll over and give out the data every other studio will want the same treatment. Which likely would also involve the Authors Guild and RIAA as well wanting info on posts.
They would certainly like to maintain the posters and the data they bring by blocking this, but if push comes to shove, the posters are going to get hosed to save the stock.
Service plans also enable location services and geofencing for wired RPlate users
So some of the plates do have that function built in and you have to pay monthly to use it.
They have Meta AI baked into their apps now and are building a 10 Billion dollar AI facility in Louisiana that they want to use Nuclear Power to run.
So I’m guessing the plan is to hurt the competition that is already ahead of them and hopefully get enough time to buy them out or pass them.
I’ve put a lot of effort into making plex posters that match/have a uniform look for 90% of my library, from what I’ve seen this will make all that useless as they switch to what appears to be fanart only. I don’t necessarily care for that change.
Once they added advertisements to Prime Video, they no longer had a need to have FreeVee. I assumed this would have happened sooner, but I’m not shocked. Hopefully this frees up space on all those Fire devices that were forced to have the app without the ability to remove it.
Not only do you have to watch cities for these things, you need to read the privacy policy on some websites to see what their physical locations are doing. Lowe’s and Home Depot both have Facial Recognition and ALPR policies.
I can’t even come home at night without being hit by a Flock Camera, we have one outlet and they put it right when you turn into the neighborhood, for “safety” of course.
Are they going to name it WOPR or Joshua? Maybe some teen will feed it crazy info and it’ll start trying to find the launch codes on its own.
I don’t disagree with the opinion, but where do we go? If Firefox goes down the forks do too, Chrome/Chromium has a monopoly on almost all other browsers, we’re stuck between two turd sandwiches as far as I know.
