It is still possible to buy “dumb” TV’s. Tons of businesses need them for display purposes (like at fast food restaurants and corporate expos, etc, etc), but you need to search for commercial displays. Like this one.

The only reason the DNC couldn’t get Kissinger for this election is that he couldn’t get a weekend pass from hell.

Joe Biden said as much, out loud, several times.

Do they not sell kids joke books in the check out line at the grocery store anymore? Used to be tons of those.

Well, he’s a Peter Thiel proxy… but Musk is also a Thiel proxy so that can get confusing.

Leading expert on buttons says to use buttons?

It’s exactly what Big Button wants you to think!!! Wake up sheeple!!!1!1!11

The racist joke was made in October.

Yeah, I’m not expecting anything less than razor thin margins. Either side has it.

My elderly dad called me a few years ago to let me know that we’d have to change up all the security stuff for our family phone plan because he gotten scammed. He said he got a call from someone claiming to be a representative of the phone company who said they’d like to lower our monthly bill. I stopped him and said “well, that should have been your first clue… when in the last decade of us using them has that ever happened? When was the last time our bill went down instead of up?”

Sure, the scams like pig butchering look dumb from the outside, but never think shit like this can’t happen to you. There’s TONs of ways scammers can trick you, but usually they’ll seek out vulnerable people. Sure the gullible are vulnerable, but just because you’re not vulnerable right now, doesn’t mean you won’t be at some point in the future. Desperation can make scholars into fools.

My first thought also. I get people not wanting to get the police involved (i.e. some officers may share the sibling and father’s sentiment), but this is definitely a situation where authorities should be contacted. This really feels like we’re going to hear in like two months a local TV reporter say the words: “from a FOI request, we’ve learned that the two suspects were on police radar for months.”

Larger form factors also means more room for batteries. Granted, larger screens require them, but I think my point stands. I’ve been on the Samsung Note since like the Note 4 (I think). The larger amount of screen real estate is genuinely a welcome upgrade and that’s the whole point of the foldables… it’s the next evolution of the “phablet.”

The blood of their own people is also on their hands… because the IDF and the Netanyahu government uses them as human shields; it’s a fact that they play fast and lose with Israeli lives. Remember that they had intelligence an attack was highly likely around the month of Oct… they still let that music festival continue and didn’t attempt to evacuate or even warn the kibbutz near the walls surrounding Gaza. They wanted any kind of attack to be at least marginally successful so they could justify bulldozing and occupying Gaza so that settlements could commence there.

Seriously. Straight dudes are missing TF out.

Had an upgrade while all that was going on. Got a free 50 inch TV for staying with Samsung for my next phone.

Wait… Ronald Reagan didn’t “didn’t do any of [add government]” just because no new “three letter’d” agencies got founded under his tenure. In 1982 (or 83… I forget and am drunk right now), he almost doubled spending for the Department of Defense.

Wait… which part of this headline is biased exactly?

As a Georgian I can tell you, her state was devastated… and then Helene hit.

American here but, from what I understand of Pan-European politics generally, it’s more of an attempt to unify everyone else and not necessarily to draw away far-right voters.

That’s… that’s a Pornhub category right? “Watching people watching porn” has got to be a tab on that site. It’s sounds too much like a kink to not be a kink.
