I've set up a Proton VPN wireguard connection for my TV with Tracker+Ad block on my router. I'm still somehow getting served ads, despite the VPN working properly. Maybe there's a bug in my router config. I will review it lat

I have considered doing the same, but I decided to stick with the default since I love the Art Mode. I also bought it primarily as decoration, so it serves its purpose just fine. (I wouldn't buy it as primary TV however, because of the

I bought the Samsung Frame TV and I love it, but you're correct about Samsung's OS (it's sluggish, filled with ADs and by far the worst TV OS that I've used so far)

You're ignoring something important. Apple recently threatened stopping EU shipments rather than DMA compliance ( https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/sep/25/apple-cal... ). They want the DMA r

You're making a fair point about Google and embrace-and-extend, but you didn't actually address the evidence I raised. Let me ask more directly. Again, the iOS 17.4 situation. Apple claimed building PWA support for alternative bro

You're absolutely right about BeforeInstallPrompt. It never achieved consensus, Mozilla declined to implement it, and this is exactly how standards should work. But here's the thing, this actually makes the broader argument strong

You don't have to do everything perfectly. Both web apps and "native" apps will be similarly affected by a dev who is terrible at coding. Most people use web apps every day and are not even aware that they are using web apps.

You're right, I am making a bigger argument. That's because pbiggar's point about voting is impossible to understand without it. It's a symptom, and you are trying to discuss it while pretending the disease i.e a system

While your point about international law is technically correct, it is also a masterclass in deliberate evasion. You are not engaging with OP's argument, but you're using a legal footnote to sidestep the clear and openly stated in

Mozilla doesn't have a multi-billion dollar App Store creating a direct conflict of interest. Their motives aren't comparable. A few overlapping concerns don't refute the primary evidence of Apple's self-serving behavior

I share your experience and view in that regard! There is so much criticism of LLMs and some of it is fair, like the problem of hallucinations, but that weakness can be reframed as a learning opportunity. It's like discussing a subject

Why is an entire comment like his with solid evidence flagged because of 1 mild line, but the parent comment is itself a baseless 1-liner flamebait with zero effort to substantiate but is allowed to stay up? That's not even the worst -
