I think the right approach would be to label content that is not in the source language you have set as your device locale. It’s not about filtering out the content, it’s about making it easy to tell whether or not it’s going to start playi

Huh? What does that have to do with anything I stated? The same would be true if I was watching Netflix in France with my device locale set to fr-FR. I’d just consider English content to be foreign language content instead.

That’s another thing I don’t like about Netflix: English dubs by default. It’s an example of the deceptive tactics I’m referring to in how they present foreign language content. The default audio should be in the source language, with subti

I’m fine with foreign language content in general, as long as it’s categorized as such. The problem is how Netflix mixes it in with everything else in a deceptive manor.

Technically it’s a government entitlement / subsidy, but on the plus side, at least it’s an entitlement everyone has equal access to.

Just like a scene out of The Wolf of Wall Street. This company appears to be fraudulent to the very core.

I know professional photographers that use them for photo editing, but not as their main machine. It allows for a more casual way to work when that is desired. It also works well for showing photos to clients. Clearly it’s valuable to at le

It’s funny that you use quotes around “right” when referring to property rights, which are well established as natural rights. All while making the claim that adequate housing is some kind of fundamental human right. It might be a governmen

You might look at some of the replies in this thread. The poster you’re replying to has an outdated view of how mesh networks work with modern hardware. Mesh networks can use Ethernet as backhaul and they can also use dedicated radios on 6G
