Pocketbook is the main alternative. Hardware better than Kobo imo (e.g. their 6-inch eReader has buttons, Kobo's doesn't), and the software is even more open.

Or, of course, you can just plug USB and it'll sync (and charge).

This was a random snippet of complicated rules to illustrate what I mean. C++ has significant footguns and complexity when it comes to initialising an object. Even sticking by "Effective Modern C++" rules is a significant cognitiv

I don't get this, so you're saying than they can and do sell maps of your home to the highest bidder. But... it's actually overblown, even though they're doing exactly what people were concerned they were doing? It'

I've had excellent results for French with a series of books called Grammaire Progressive du Français. Self-contained lessons of grammar. Vocabulary is easier because I already spoke a language with significant cross-pollination with F

Things like this are why I don't get when anyone calls Rust "more difficult than C++". I don't think I've ever encountered a more complex and cumbersome language than C++.

Equating two "bad" things as if they weren't worlds apart in gravity is baby's first fallacy. An ingrown toenail and the Holocaust are not the same thing.

Youtube, without fail, every SINGLE time I look up anything in my native language, suggests me videos of the local far-right party. Doesn't matter if I'm watching a funny video or educational content, in comes (autoplayed, no less

Block what? Which domains? How do you know what the TV will connect to?

The incessant bullet lists and the conclusion titled "Conclusion" give it away. And above all, the complete lack of "voice". You can tell when a human is speaking and when a sanitised amorphous blob of averageness is spe

How would you block ads on such a TV? The problem is you still cannot connect it to the internet without unknown privacy intrusion... Maybe to the LAN only? But then it's usefulness is still limited.

Is this even practical anymore? A non-technical person can set up video surveillance on their home for a couple hundred bucks. Why wouldn't a criminal do that? I think the days of the FBI planting a microphone in a lamp on Tony Soprano
