Hate to break it to you, but AppleTV really is the best option.
I haven’t tried it, but I would think that running something shitty like a Roku but gating it with a pi-hole would be reasonable. You just have to make sure that there’s no open networks within reach (neighbors, etc).
That’s ALL he had to do!
and then everybody clapped
In addition to the great advice in this thread, as a dev you were probably working in one stack for those 7 years. When that happened to me, I realized that my skills were out of date. So I did some leetcode grinding to get current. Also, lots of jobs use leetcode-type screenings now, so best to get proficient there. It sucks but that’s the way it is now.
Yeah but morbid jokes are funny. :)
Except for the ones who park in the garage, close the door, and leave the engine running to escape the pain of existence.
Gather ‘round kids, time for a story. The year was 2003, and TiVo had defined the category of DVRs and instantly become indispensable. People loved that they could fast-forward through commercials, much to the chagrin of networks and advertisers.
But a new competitor entered the scene: ReplayTV, a product that did everything TiVo did with one major added benefit: it automatically detected and skipped commercials without having to press a button. It was glorious. So naturally, like all things which improve the life of a consumer, the powers-that-be took umbrage. Funded by TiVo lobbying, the FCC decided that not having to press a button on a remote was a bridge too far. ReplayTV was crushed by a heavy fine and ban, relegating them to the tech scrap heap. Thus TiVo maintained their position as market leader, despite having an inferior experience.
All this to say: fuck you TiVo, you wasted your brand clout and position by getting into bed with the same lawmakers who fomented your demise when the HD era was legislated to ban commercial-skipping mechanisms.
Ah, looks like you’re following ’murica’s lead. Don’t worry, it gets worse!
I’m so glad I don’t waste my money on that shit
Your Walmart only has two carts like that!? The one near me (which I refuse to go into) looks like a shopping cart battlefield.
Walmart is the physical manifestation of not returning a shopping cart.
Having spent a decent amount of time in Germany (but not integrating into society): what about it is shit? From an outsider’s perspective, you guys seem to have it mostly together. Sure AfD exists, a percentage of the population will always be trash. But social services are there, mass transit is acceptable, and the economy is probably the strongest in Europe.
Same goes for getting over other fears. That huge roller coaster is a feat of engineering and thousands upon thousands of people before you rode it just fine. Going to that strange country is easy; so many people live there just fine.
He’s a human thumb
I don’t use the word “hero” often, but he is the greatest hero in American history.
Also that goatee lol what does he think he’s hiding

All he needed was a friend 😭
Picture looks like it’s from 1957
Don’t forget the dozens of federal felony convictions
They insist upon themselves
