  • Are canadians friendly to people from other countries?

    Jump

  • Yes. If you're out east, there's a ton of black people. Out west, less so. Either way people will be friendly.

  • LG TV's new software update installed MS Copilot, which cannot be deleted

    Jump

  • Not really. I did mine years ago using the rootmy.tv site.

    The biggest benefit is hyperion lighting. I have an esp32 plugged into the USB port on the back, driving leds that match the color of my content. https://github.com/TBSniller/piccap

    It doesn't work on HDCP, but I only use the jellyfin app and hdmi input for my pc, both of which are great.

    There's also a really good screensaver https://repo.webosbrew.org/apps/org.aabytt.webos.custom-screensaver-aerial/

    Oh yeah this is all via webosbrew which is a homebrew app manager you install once rooted.

    There's also a util that let's you rebind buttons on your remote which is handy

  • Yes, you'll pry my native jellyfin client from my cold dead hands. Also my rooted lg now has an awesome screensaver with hd nature footage that I love.

  • Lol what's happening to reddit, their text is all sloped

  • [No Spoilers] Pluribus: What do you think of the pacing?

    Jump

  • No complaints. They're really good at ending when we want to know more.

  • TIL Howling Mad Murdock from the A-Team (1983) is also Lt. Barclay from Star Trek: TNG

    Jump

  • Unfortunately he's maga & anti trans 😢

  • Do you buy real Christmas trees or put up artificial ones?

    Jump

  • Real, but I keep it in a pot and it goes outside the rest of the year. It's about 3.5' tall at the moment and gets a little bigger each year. I've had it for 4 years now

  • What is your go-to karaoke song?

    Jump

  • Biz Markie - Just a friend

  • Just ended what must be my 4th rewatching of The Pitt -- must be the greatest medical show of all times

    Jump

  • House is really more an interpersonal drama in a medical setting. It's not about the medicine.

    The pitt is like a medical documentary in the format of 24. It's absolutely fantastic.

  • Is anyone else noticing lemmy.world having federation issues?

    Jump

  • They had a stick of ram fail which was causing some services to oom. Their maintenance should be fixing it

  • I was given a steam giftcard for my b-day, what now?

    Jump

  • Holiday sale starts Dec 18th

  • Show us your 2025 wrapped

    Jump

  • You first?

  • Gatekeeper: The first open-source DDoS protection system. Has anyone tried mass hosting this as a group?

    Jump

  • Doesn't really make sense for self hosting. Filtering the traffic is pointless if the traffic just completely overwhelms your internet.

    Also generally self hosters aren't running bgp with their own asn.

  • Man behind in-flight Evil Twin WiFi attacks gets 7 years in prison

    Jump

  • You generally have to accept the captive portal pages before your vpn connection will be allowed.

  • Weight. If you load a 42u rack up with 30lb servers you're at 1280lbs spread out over about 4sqft, which is over the floor loading limit for most buildings. It's much cheaper to support the weight in a wider building compared to a taller one.

    That being said I've been in many data centers in the middle of a giant office towers, but they have lower weight limits generally.
