  Like a TV that flunked kindergarten? j/k

  Count me in for #3.

  If you literally replaced the firmware, what else could possibly be phoning home?

  I don’t know how remotes work, physically, but they gotta send some sort of code to the TV. If your TV’s OS can intercept that message it can choose its own response mapped to whatever you want to happen. Something akin to remapping keys in your keyboard.

  I would assume, anyway. I could be wrong.

  That sounds, uh, fun.

  I was thinking that if somebody knows how to do that, they probably also have an opinion on which brands of TV are better or worse for it.

  I don’t own a TV right now but plan to in the future.

  If no, it’s not okay to take drugs to make yourself better, then why would you let your doctor prescribe you meds? I wouldn’t want to take meds for no reason. (Or worse, meds that make me worse off.)

  Does heroin make a person better?

  ADHD drugs improve people’s ability to focus and concentrate even without effort on the part of the patient. So that’s a counter-example.

  Would it make a difference if you were taking the drug to makeup for a deficiency, or if you were taking it to surpass normal ability?
