Smaller circle inside “what people actually understand”, “what people actually care about”.

Same in the US

I have no doubt people will be able to hack it. What I’m saying is there is no way it could be hacked without the company finding out and forcing you to return it or pay up. When you sign up you have to give them your personal information and credit card. If you disconnect it from the Internet, filter its Internet traffic, or modify it in any way they will tell you to return it and if you don’t return it they will charge the credit card.

From their terms of service:

In order to use the Product and Services, You will:

(a) Use the Product as the primary television in Your household;

(d) Not make physical modifications to the Product or attach peripheral devices to the Product not expressly approved by Telly. Any attempt to open the Product’s enclosure will be deemed an unauthorized modification.

If we discover that You are not abiding by the requirements above or have disconnected the Product from an internet connection or WiFi for more than short periods each month, You will no longer be able to use the Service and You must return any Products in your possession to Telly. Failure to return Products to Telly will result in Telly charging the credit card on file.

No, the maker has stated they have measures in place to detect any tampering, and that if you tamper with the device, fail to connect it to the Internet, or do not use it frequently they will make you return it or pay for it.

They have said that they can’t stop people from doing that, but that the settings menus, such as the input switcher, will be on the bottom screen.

The settings menus (input switcher, etc) will be on it. Also it will collect data on anything you view using the main screen (HDMI input, etc) regardless.

They have stated they have measures in place to detect anyone trying to do that and will require them to return the TV or pay for it.

Does it work with password manager apps like Google keyboard does?

“All-one or none”

After reading the article it is clear to me that Meucci made precursors to the electromagnetic telephone but did not actually invent the modern version as popularized by Bell.

There is no solid evidence for him having created the device or even described how it was created before Bell. He experimented with a bunch of similar things, and filled a patent caveat that described the general concept (i.e. sending voices over a wire using electrical current), but it contained no details as to the actual mechanism. All his descriptions of how he created the device were made years after he claimed to have built it, and after Bell’s version was widely known.

Indeed, topograpgically it is not a hole.

The upload function is buggy for some people, most of the time I have to upload to Imgur and paste the image url as the post link.

Requirements for officers to wear body cameras are meaningless without significant penalties for turning them off when on duty

“In addition, we have received this image submission earlier today from an anonymous member of our community, who also offered the c/reddit moderation team, and I quote, “one Barbie-llion dollars”, to set it as the community banner. We’re not sure what to make of this”

I agree, it would be impossible to enforce any rules on color adjustment in a fair way. There’s a lot of variability in terms of what is captured in camera as well as subjectivity in terms of what is most faithful to the actual subject even if the intention is to be 100% realistic, which is not always the case.

“average person changes sheets 4 times a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person changes sheets 25 times per year. Sheets Georg, who lives in cave & changes sheets never, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

This is not built into Lemmy at the moment so the only way to do it is browse using a 3rd party app/website that has added this feature.

The only one I’m aware of at the moment is Connect for Lemmy on Android.

RCS is Rich Communication Services, it’s a newer protocol that is end to end encrypted and adds more features like replying to a specific message, emoji reactions, typing indicators and read receipts if the user has that turned on, and sending more types of files.

Your phone is supposed to check if the other person’s phone supports RCS before sending a message using it, and automatically resend via SMS if an RCS message doesn’t go through, but it doesn’t always work.

In the default Google messages app it is the first option at the top of settings.
