- Comment on Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet? 1 day ago:
I feel I must clarify. I value my privacy, and my money. I prefer to disconnect it from the internet immediately, but if the vendor put a piece of code that measures offline time and then disables critical HDMI input functionality - it is a different story entirely.
What if after X months of offline functionality - I have to connect it again because of “You must connect to the internet to continue using this TV”
What if being offline for a very long duration of time - means that when connecting it again - the firmware update bricks my TV?
I know the instabilities that occurr when updating after a very long time of being offline.
I’m unsure about my specific model - but it is an LG WebOS OLED 48"

- Comment on How long would it take for a ball rolling across the room to bounce off the wall and get back to you - but the room has a time traveling portal halfway through? 6 days ago:
Why though? In 1969 a ball appeared in the middle of the room, hit a wall and came back towards the portal…

Purely ideological at this point.
I want to own my media, CDs aren’t being produced anymore, vinyls are resurfacing. - Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 4 months ago:

Don’t you think that the sentence “Is ‘Is a question?’ a question?” makes more sense than “‘Is a question?’ is a question?”?

- Comment on JetKVM - a polished take at the nanoKVM(?) 9 months ago:
OK, I’ve read the wiki entry but I still don’t understand what KVM is, or why it’s needed. The last time I visited a data center - every server rack came with a laptop-esque looking control unit. What problem does KVM comes to solve? What does this invention improve upon a traditional KVM?

But cracking ed25519, or RSA , is something that state actors can’t do without massive resources… What am I missing here?
Even if I reverse engineer Linux, I can’t know the decryption keys for my encrypted data… Are you saying that HDCP is not “Secured” but “Jumbled up”? If tomorrow the source code for it get released - then “The jig is up”? - Submitted 9 months ago to nostupidquestions@lemmy.world | 18 comments
