on The insane amount of requests my LG tv has sent since last Friday in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 13 Sep 2026
It’s funny that you’re only concerned with that aspect of the LG. The request that this guy’s talking about for the most part are not going to be microphone recordings or anything like that. It’s literally just fetching ads back and forth if you look at the actual pages that it’s trying to grab. And that’s exactly what Chromecast and pretty much any of the other streaming services are doing is driving ads and fetching them back and forth.

You guys are funny to think that any streaming device has any sort of ad capability is not doing the same exact type of thing.
Also this guy thinking that that’s a lot of requests being made by a single device in a week period. That’s really not that many requests especially when things like ads are being served up on the device or it’s got to make a request to be able to pull down updates and different things like that which it does at least ones have not several times a day as well.

I think you underestimate how many other people not in the working class also carry these types of devices and where these devices everywhere.

on LG smart TVs caught logging audio with screen off and snooping on local devices in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
I do tv repair. They are dead east to repair. Its basically a large laptop. You have a system board, power board, and depending the brand a few other smaller boards that are easy to swap. Getting the parts is not incredibly difficult, but it depend how new, how old, Eric. EBay is key. But, like any tv, of its the screen, it’s trash. Typically costs more to replace that then buy new.

Unless you’re the one literally writing the program. It is being developed by other people who at any point in time could have issues. Just saying not saying they do now but it can certainly happen.

on Linus Torvalds used AI to fix a Linux bug, and now LLM critics on Linux face an uncomfortable choice in c/technology@lemmy.world · 2 Sep 2026
That is a super idiotic statement there. The amount of people not using a hammer correctly compared to the amount of people not using AI correctly is nowhere near any sort of even percentage correct. Like I am flabbergasted you would even try to make that sort of comparison.

Yeah I mean any of the Walmarts in my area any of the Smiths in my area which is owned by Kroger and I’ve been to many many states and I’d say a good half to three quarters of the grocery stores have a self-fill area to be able to fill up your water. And it’s much cheaper because of course you’re just picking up the water at that point you’re not paying for the container.

I have a grocery store near me called WinCo. They’re all over the western United states. You can walk into any of them and they have a bulk section and you can grab however much you need. You don’t typically bring your own container for that but I don’t believe it’s disallowed. There are other bulk stores around but typically most people don’t purchase them in bulk they usually just purchase a couple pounds at a time and that’s plenty to be able to last them as long as they need it.

The problem is that most of the people that are using it are not using it correctly and are not using it in a manner that they are just simply trying to find something to correct it. They’re literally using it to write the code and they’re barely scanning it afterwards. Therefore it’s creating a mishmash spaghetti bullshit that nobody wants.

on Bernie Sanders tells OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta to pause AI development or face Senate action in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
Whoever said that the Democrats were good? Just because some of their legislation aligns better with what he’s trying to accomplish doesn’t mean anything. Just like I voted for republicans in the past however almost all of them since the formation of the I love the Big Orange dick organization have gone to the point where I’ll vote almost straight Democrat at this point. Because yes they are better regardless of what your personal thoughts and feelings are they are better.

Could it possibly be because 95% of the Republican vote put forward is absolute dog shit and goes against everything that he represents? No that possibly couldn’t be it. Not at all.

Everyone in tech isn’t sad. Some are. Some aren’t. It depends the day, the job, and the person. I’ve been in tech for 21 years and I’m very happy. I work hard, and an satisfied with most of my job.

What an idiotic statement. Bernie Sanders is always been an independent and has always voted that way. He has voted with the Republicans when things are needed and looks good he has voted with the Democrats when things are needed and looked good. But he also recognizes who the super fucked up ones are currently. And right now that ain’t the democrats.

Quite
Lucrative
Don’t even need an LLM to set this up. It’s not hard, and it sounds like the dad helped and agreed to one 20$ spend which recurred into a massive ad spend.
