  • Once outside of the apartment, the dog charged at one of the officers, resulting in an Officer-Involved Shooting (OIS).

    That dog ran up to get pets from his new cop friends and they shot him.

    I have a dog like this. He has never met a person who isn’t his best friend. He’s a big dog (Dalmatian) but he’s the friendliest boy.

    Big dogs get treated differently than small dogs. If a small dog jumps on you, it’s fine.If a big dog jumps to get attention, a cop will shoot it.

    If a cop shoots my dog, they better shoot me too.


  • I can’t afford a super nice TV. I have a Hisense U6 which I probably spent $500-700 at the time. It’s a few years old. But the fact that they know we don’t want their garbage so the make the TV worse if I don’t connect it to their services pisses me off. That’s the FireTV version.

    I have a smaller Google TV version of the same panel on my bedroom and it doesn’t do that. Plus it has more features. I am degoogled tho so I don’t have it connected to an account tho.

    I do have it connected to an Apple TV. As for streaming devices that work out of the box, I actually really like the Apple TV. The only thing better than this would be doing what you said.

    I’ve been trying to self host with Jellyfin, but getting my NAS set up has been a hassle. I’ve probably spent 200 hours trying to get it to work but no luck yet. (Fuck you QNAP/QTS and your proprietary software)



  • People be like “don’t connect it to the internet.” I tried that and the TV actively functions worse. Like it forces me to go to the Fire TV Home Screen rather than just returning to whatever input I had it on when it was turned off and it says “some features don’t work when not connected”

    Like Amazon enshittified the TV input to force me to connect the TV to the internet. I wouldn’t have bought it if I had known but now I’m stuck with it.

    I should be able to use whatever software I want in my own devices. I want a Linux TV so badly.
