I don't get the remote start, you should never start them if you're away from your home. Gonna flood or burn your house down.

There's also phone apps that do the job and they just hook up via wifi.

They're already doing what you mentioned in your last post. The screen saver scrolls and has a cityscape with billboards. Those billboards have ads on them.

I call em pedo stashes but also they can do their thing as long as they aren't hurting anyone.

I agree with you but to be fair our prison system is terrible at rehabilitation. Sure it works sometimes but it's not their main focus.

Did you read about the prison that is denying everyone in person visits so they can charge money for phone calls and video calls? They're getting a kick back from the companies whk run those systems. Fucking gross.

Damn wtf, that's truly unfortunate bud. Thanks for letting us know though, it'll help us steer clear of that brand. I'm also looking for a new dumb TV to use as a monitor for streaming in my living room. I'm just gonna hook up a mini pc to it and call it a day. Wireless mouse and mini keyboard is all I'll need.

The cerveza crystal edit wasn't a meme edit. Iirc it was a totally legit copy of the movie aired in Chile decades ago when they got the rights to air the movie on their local TV. They wanted to make extra money and that company paid the TV station to do in movie product placements. They're hilarious.

I wouldn't recommend any TCL older than 5 years. No idea about new ones but I used to sell and install them and they all just sucked. The video quality was mid and they had a weird input delay that made them annoying to use. These were tvs that were new out of the box.

I'm assuming you've checked but I'll still ask, there's no setting to turn off the battery saver mode.

That's sorta intensely selfish. Having a second kid outweighs the idea of leaving your other kid without a mom and a partner without their partner. Like the mom from this story who now left 2 kids without their mom.

Same I'm a fan of the look of the cyber truck but fuck Elon. It's the car of the future we were promised by all those old movies.

And then you get people who not only have the premium badges but also a license plate that say the cars make or model AND a frame around the plate that also says it lul. I see it all the time in Cali. I want to de badge my car, mostly cause if they want me to advertise for them they should be paying me. It's just that the front and back badges are indented Into the car and I haven't found any replacements I like. I also haven't found any custom maker online, maybe I just need to commission a 3d printer to try something for me.
