  • I went down the Pi 4B with Kodi path. It wasn’t very reliable. It was just sometimes when I went to watch something, it just was broken. And I had to go through troubleshooting instead of watching whatever I had turned it on for.

    I ended up with an Amazon firestick. Even using Kodi (and smarttube) on that works faster and more reliably.

    But then I have the Amazon firestick nosing around in everything I do lol. But I did disconnect my TV from the internet…
















  • I.d rather take any website than being continuously forced to download apps, or being told to go to Facebook for some business’s information.

    There’s 2 things a website should respect - simple do it more often -, and not doing these will earn you my wrath:

    • you should be able to at least zoom/shrink text. Some websites have things so locked down, I can never read their teeny tiny text. Fuck you ESPN. Why would you let desktop zoom, and stop it on mobile where my screen is smaller and I most need it? (I’ll leave alone the original intent of the web of separating presentation from content for another day).
    • Browser Back button should take you back to the previius ‘page’. I’m terrified to use it because you’re really showing multiple ‘pages’ on 1 real page, so who knows where I’ll end up.
