I don’t think they do but mine still works perfectly and is pretty awesome. Also, it uses less power than a lot of modern TVs

Not saying it’s perfect.
- Comment on FuckYourHeadlights - A community for people to organise and vent about ridiculously bright lights 3 days ago:
Yes, some specific cars and lights are surprisingly bad, but in general it’s not comparable to the US. Maybe also depends on the specific country, too, of course.

Allow yourself enjoyment. Do things.
Enforce ‘this was fun’.
Sounds stupid and piling responsibility on you. I’m sorry about that. But maybe this can help you. I’ve been there.

- Comment on Simple home automation that works properly on a RPi 3B 3 weeks ago:
Never looked in to deeply how haos manages things.
I never used hacs since I’ve heard it complicates setups and maintenance and I don’t want to put in more effort than I absolutely have to (working as it pro and don’t need that privately). Running several integrations, Enphase as stated, airthings, broadlink, esphome, homekit, melcloud, nanoleaf and the main one for me, zigbee.
Speed when booted is perfectly fine, can’t say otherwise.
What specifically is slow?
- Comment on Simple home automation that works properly on a RPi 3B 3 weeks ago:
Strange. I’ve been running haos for some years on a 3b+ which is different but the soc is the same (although slightly higher as is the amount of ram.
As said, I run haos though, not containers. Not sure how you tried it.
Just slap it on a SD card and go… Mostly intuitive.

- Comment on Gemini is replacing Google Assistant on Pixel phones, and it’s a train wreck 6 months ago:
I was thinking about this while posting and absolutely agreed.
It just boils down to how enshittification is defined though, and using ai for everything (where it might not fit or degrade a service) might possibly be valid too.
