Ah I see what happened here. We are talking about the same thing, but “postdate” means just the opposite. It’s setting a date in the future, not past. That would be “backdate.”

It’s not postdating. OP is talking about preserving dates from another platform, even if it means manually editing.

I feel like this is a “baby in the river” scenario. You know — after the third or fourth one, you should stop just diving in to save them and go look upstream to figure out who is throwing all the babies in!

We need to stop saying “wow, another person abused their position and inside knowledge to make money on polymarket.”

Of course they did. Polymarket is practically purpose-engineered to be abused by people with inside knowledge. It would be more shocking to discover that no one was abusing it. It’s basically a casino that lets you bring your own cards from home. I honestly don’t understand why it wasn’t shut down a long time ago.

Always a concern. They will eventually require a Walmart account I guess. I’ll have to remember to disable updates.

Well… People have been doing this with Raspberry Pis and Kodi forever. Add a bluetooth remote and you basically have an open source streaming box. You could even install LineageOS and run all of the android apps you want.

I got some cheap ONN boxes, Which seem like the best value for true Android TV devices. If you have the funds NVIDIA Shield TV is probably the way to go.

It’s possible to skip the Walmart account login at setup, but probably not possible to skip the Google account sign-in (let me know if you find a way!).

Setting up side-loading is trivial, although largely unnecessary. I loaded Stremio, Jellyfin, and a VPN for better streaming experience and control. I replaced the default home screen with Projectivy Launcher. You don’t need to go into ADB shell or anything like that. There are also other home screen launchers that fix the major problems with the default GoogleTV screen; Emotin UI (closed source), FLauncher (dormant), Leanback Launcher, ATV Launcher (closed-source).

There are lots of options for web browsing, File Explorer, on-device media, stores, etc. that are easily available.

Roku is another prime example of enshitification.

Now I have all my “smart” TVs disconnected, and I hooked up some inexpensive Android TV boxes (with a couple minor modifications). No more ads!

Good. Racist little troll.

It’s the same story, but the right reads Atlas Shrugged as a cautionary tale, where the left reads it as aspirational.

It really depends. I’d suspect if it cannot play a video, then it wouldn’t be able to serve it either. People are doing a lot more than this on Raspberry Pis.

For me, the best place to start was with services that replace cloud products. Setting up Immich for photo storage, Jellyfin for movies and shows, or navidrome for music.

I’m reading Everything is Tuberculosis (great book by the way), and the author posits a reason for African mistrust of Western medicine. As a civilization, we have created a surge and abandon standard of care in Africa.

Clinics open up on grants, send doctors and facilities, then evaporate when the grant/interest dries up. There is no continuity of care, no training of local doctors, and no reliable facilities and supply lines. Of course there is no trust.

We need to be investing in training and sustainable care if there is to be any changes in the culture around medicine in Africa.

Israelis need to make a coalition to remove this monster and the entire Netanyahu circus of horrors

What context would make it okay for you?

It’s already linked multiple times in this thread

I agree with you completely, other than the last line. This is a guy who is unapologetic about making bigoted statements about Jews. He was called out on it and doubled down.

I am bothered by someone speaking out in the guise of being part of my movement thinking it’s fine to say things like that. I am even more bothered by apparent throngs of people who refuse to hold any accountability for antisemitic language repeated in YOUR name (specifically referring to Haredi/religious Jews as “inbred”)

No, he specifically called Jews who refused to join the IDF for religious reasons inbred. Watch the clip. But I guess keep defending it.

This is a guy who has publicly and gleefully called religious Jews “inbred.” I would love to see just one anti-racist say that this man has no place in the movement.

But calling Jews inbred is antisemitic.

Just look at all of the supposed leftists refusing to distance themselves from this literal antisemitic jerk.

As long as he is also anti-Israel people seem fine to defend him.

The far left has created a climate in which there is no consequence for antisemitism as long as the perpetrator is also anti-Israel.

We should ask Claude how to solve this. /s
