They tend to require installing a rootkit on your own computer. I wouldn't buy them even if they did support Linux.

There are USB NFC readers. Someone could add support for that to Klipper.

Dumb TVs are still readily available. They are intended for commercial use and will suck for games or movies though.

Well, they have had a lot of vulnerabilities. Most people won't even update the firmware let alone install OpenWRT on them.

If you want to ground it and don't require a floating output, you could connect ground to one end of the secondary.

You can open "Keyboard Shortcuts" in the menu and change them to whatever you want.

I would assume that it will work as long as Deno is installed somewhere that's in $PATH. They still haven't merged the pull request that will make yt-dlp use Deno yet. There should be more information once they release the new version. Yt-dlp 2025.10.22 included a fix that gets some formats working again though.

At least use a decent QR scanner that shows you the contents without automatically opening anything.

There's no guarantee that deleting your account actually deletes your data. They will probably keep it and use it to train their AI.

Even if the smart fridge doesn't become enshittified, the smart features will likely become obsolete long before the fridge its self is worn out. Just try using a phone or tablet that's 10-15 years old. It probably won't be able to open an https website, let alone install new apps.

Get a magnetic case for a tablet and stick it to the fridge. If it starts showing ads, you can take it off, put it through the wood chipper and the fridge will still work fine.

Programs running on Wine still have access to all of the files that you do. They won't be able to mess with system files unless they can find some sort of privilege escalation exploit in Wine though.
