  • I think high end smasnugs do that. But yeah same, I have a Chromecast and I just sling stuff to the TV. Its tuner hasn't been used in a decade.

    Speaking of decade.... I should probably upgrade that thing. But it's big enough, dark enough (LDC, but at least not a crappy LCD), and high enough resolution for it's size and distance from my couch (1080, 50 inches, 10 or 15 feet) that I just can't justify replacing it. I wish it would die already lol.

    Maybe if I move and get a big enough bedroom, I'll put it in there, and upgrade to something with HDR. I really wanna get in on some good HDR. Seems like it's getting really good and really affordable if you buy the right thing.

  • Teeth!

    Nice!

  • Very nice! Love the style

  • Elianscript @sh.itjust.works

    To say in a subtle or indirect way

  • Beloved!

    I like the style!

  • Fair enough, looks great! Thanks for explaining, glad to know I'm not going crazy lol

  • Hmmm, hard to say, I think I might like it better solid.

    Though this way would be easier to add the dot for the third set 🤷‍♂️ more uniform with the rest

  • I'm struggling to parse this, reading top to bottom and left to right, it seems like random letters? Is there an extra layer of obfuscation?

  • I like it! I wonder how it would look if the N were hollow?

  • Nope, it's Elianscript! A type of writing obfuscation that's highly artistic, and I just think it's neat 😅

    This one says

    disgusting

  • Dell was my first thought as well

  • Interesting!

  • You're welcome!

  • Can confirm! We have a winner!

    Normally I'd wait until the end of the month to deal out the reward, but this puzzle has been here a couple months, everyone has had plenty of opportunities to solve it haha.

  • Nice!

  • I think the point you might be missing from the OP, is that the person in question doesn't actually possess this knowledge or skill, but instead of being humble and admitting the gaps in their knowledge, perhaps asking a question or two when they don't understand, they just plow ahead.

    I know people like this. It's not malicious I don't think, maybe it's more of a defense mechanism? They don't want to look uninformed, so they try to fill the gaps in their knowledge with assumptions. Maybe they're right a decent amount of the time, or close enough to fool people who aren't knowledgeable on the subject. But people who are knowledgeable, will recognize what they're doing, and the lack of humility comes across as arrogance, even though that may not strictly be the case.

    It's normal to know a lot of stuff and like a wide variety of things. But you need to be humble when you don't know something.

    When I don't know something for sure, I like to say "I think it's this way, but I could be wrong." Or something like that. Or heck, if someone else has the knowledge and skills I don't, I'm right up there asking questions, I want to learn. Maybe I'll try to impress them with what little I do know on the subject by commenting or asking questions in a way that shows I understand what they're talking about, because we all want to have self worth. But faking it isn't cool, and can be harmful, or just annoying.

  • Yeah I thoroughly agree, too hard.

    I might try again some day, but that's not gonna be a normal thing

  • Call your mother

    Nice!

  • Super awesome! I was looking at this, but don't want a new phone right now
