Transgender Americans and other minority groups are feeling it for sure. It’s just not the white suburban traditional family Americans who have felt the pinch yet (aside from the price of eggs).

I hope with time we can prove to you that there’s Americans here fighting against this. I know it doesn’t look great now, and don’t blame you for hating us and our country. As an American, I also hate us and our country.

I know Europeans hate us Americans and I understand why. I’ve never supported Trump and have fought with my dollar, vote, and time, but I am just too ashamed to show my face in the EU any time soon.

Did you notice which company’s equipment the blood donation was using? 👀

firmware updates, then I forget the network on the device and then denylist the MAC address

hell is empty and all the devils are here

lmao, what a tool

If you factory reset your Bravia and then decline all the Google features (don’t sign in, etc.) it’s about as close to a dumb TV as you can get these days.

Yes, tragically. Don’t buy a Samsung Odyssey monitor like I did. It takes 7 button presses to change the input and there’s a Disney+, Netflix, and Prime Video dedicated buttons on the remote.

I’m looking to “down”-grade ASAP.

Still processing this one… there’s a lot to unpack. What’s up with the different rooms?

My TV and computer monitor are deny-listed on my router, and I’m angry that I even have to do that.

I think this diff makes it pretty clear its time to run, not walk: https://circumstances.run/@davidgerard/114078708183574404

The UI is a bit janky, but the Hiby R1 (what I have) is a decent audio player for not much money. It has a plastic casing though and it’s not easy to remove the battery. I don’t think it fits enough of your criteria unfortunately, but wanted to mention it just in case.

What a miserable old man.

Came here to recommend this. Cheers! 🍻

Well if it isn’t the consequences of his own actions.

Oh this rules!

I genuinely don’t mind either. The only thing that’s disappointing is the vinyl-style sleeve that seems like minimum effort was put in.

Keyboard or not, I don’t need another Lithium Ion battery in my house.
