I get what you're saying. He was a kid and probably had a fucked up childhood that led to everything. It's rare that people like that develop in a vacuum. But that's an explanation of how he got here, not an excuse.
Now he's an adult. There are definitely people on the right using him, but he made the decision to let them. He could have easily slunk into the shadows and gone on with his life. Instead, he felt the court acquittal wasn't enough and had to continue to prove he was right for his actions on the public stage. That's his choice and his alone.
Isn't this pretty much expected from them by now? They're like that one neighborhood dog that has to bark at you the entire time you're walking by their fence.
If you're using it as a dumb TV, unless it shipped some critical firmware issue that prevents core functions from working (like HDMI input, switching inputs, etc) there shouldn't ever be a reason to update it out of the box.
I've used smart TV's for 10+ years now and figured this out of the awful experience from the first one. Never had any issues with the ones I've never connected to the Internet.
This is not true for everyone. We all have different reasons for similar feelings like this. I sleep great but still feel like this. Oversleeping is also a sign of depression.
For me, getting my diet under control and truly understanding what my body needs has helped tremendously (more fiber/protein, less carbs/sugars). Introducing daily probiotics has helped too. It really is amazing how our diets affect our moods.
For some, regular exercise may help.
For others, sun lamps help with seasonal depression.
Sometimes you need medication.
Sometimes weed helps.
Always talk to a professional. Try different things until you figure out what works and what doesn't.
I feel like Twitter (I will always deadname it) was the beginning of the end for him. Unfortunately, things like this can take years or decades to resolve, but whereas 5 years ago he had the midas touch and could do no wrong now there seems to be nothing but a stream of negative news about him.
That's such a great feeling. I did the same with our cat when we got her as a kitten. She doesn't climb on my shoulders anymore, but she prefers my lap over the others in the house.
To add to what others have said, I've heard that wide adoption of NATing as a standard practice basically ensured IPv4 longevity well beyond its logical end. This along with the cost to fully upgrade a network to IPv6 meant there was no financial incentive for companies to adopt it.
With Amazon starting to charge for IPv4 addresses, it won't be long before Google and Microsoft do the same with GCP and Azure. This may be the financial kick in the ass to get large enterprise environments to finally commit to IPv6.
EDIT: I wasn't trying to insult anyone with a one word reply, but OP was describing discipline, "to train or develop by instruction and exercise especially in self-control"
Motivation is nice, but the biggest difference between a published author and an unpublished one is that the published author sat down and wrote something.
This is a great real life example of discipline. The published author has disciplined themselves to sit down and write, even when they don't feel motivated to.
Should a port scan by a bad actor be considered multiple hacking attempts or a single hacking attempt?
Another way to think about it: if a burglar tries various windows and doors to find an unsecured opening, is that considered multiple burglary attempts or a single burglary attempt?
Hahaha, love that you came with receipts. People are extremely shortsighted sometimes and think surviving a few bad years means they'll be around for a while. Companies can take a while to fail and can limp along for years before finally being sold off.
