I think you meant 'less is more'?
- Strang 7y agoI think "more is less" is more accurate. These days, my list of antifeatures is more of a consideration than desired features when shopping for an appliance. My TV has a terrible display but doesn't know how to connect to the internet, for example.
- lostlogin 7y agoI’m sure you’re aware, but you can achieve the same by getting a tv that is full of spyware but has a nice screen, then not connecting it to the internet or blocking it at firewall/Pihole or similar.
- hermitdev 7y agoI did this with my 4k "Smart" TV. I've never connected it to the ethernet, nor have I configured the wifi. It acts as a dumb monitor and that's what I want.
- stjohnswarts 7y agoJust don't give the new TV's your network password and you'll be fine.
- stjohnswarts 7y agoJust don't give the new TV's your network password and you'll be fine, and you can enjoy the new screen types, resolution, technology.
- bisby 7y agoI thought "hey that's not right" for a second too. I've never heard "more is less"... but technically they're equivalent. Less is more, more is less. Less is better, more is worse.
- blihp 7y agoWhen you put it that way, yes I can see that the original phrasing is correct. Like you, I am used to the opposite phrasing.
