No, my name is Chris.

This is the one I’ve gotten two of for kids playroom and bedroom… They work great, old school simple tech.

I will add that you can also still get Westinghouse dumb TVs with included DVD player and USB video player, 3x HDMI and a tuner, but 1080p and Max 36"

They do, but they much more expensive than a smart TV, even though they have less components… Because a Smart TV is sold for less because its providing the vendor access to you as a product to all of their 3rd party partners.

They are called monitors, and yeah expensive but then you don’t get a “Smart TV” with tracking and bullshit.

What kind of twatwaffle writes this crap. Fuck your planned obsolescence.

Hence why Canadians are ceasing to travel to the US in record numbers and that has not recovered at all.

Having already gone to e/OS and degoogled, avoiding apps on the play store - I’ve just been using the webapps via Fennec for banking, and its been fine. No notifications… But these days most of my important bank notifications can be emails.

Working hardware drivers. Stable phone and SMs applications.

Have yet to see either on any Linux Distro for Fairphone

It can only hit the side of the planet facing the sun at the time, unless (and heavens forbid) it was some sort of massive coronal burst that was wide an deep enough to bombard the earth for a complete 24 hours.

Usually the initial bombardment that would be powerful enough to take radio signals down isn’t very long, and thus can only hit one side.

You can only talk in written terms about hemispheres with a common point of reference. That reference is the axis, with both hemispheres centred on the axis and forming the equator in the middle. Once you have told the reader it affected both hemispheres you need to establish the east-west sections. Which they do by mentioning the Americas and Pacific.

At one time it was common to see the use of longitudinal and latitudinal spans, but most people are not as familiar with the lines since globes are not as common and digital maps don’t usually display them.

The two hemispheres are the northern and southern hemispheres when discussing earth, and both were affected.

Red Dwarf did this in an Episode as well where the new AI decides he’s not crew and no longer has a subscription to air.

These days firing employees when turning a profit is what makes the stock go up.

StreetComplete to help fill in the gaps. GeoShare to translate google/apple maps locations to geocoordinates for OSM, and then adding the place in OSMAnd if you login with the OpenStreetMaps editor plugin. This is how those of us who adopted Google Maps early added so much of their data…

I use OSMAnd and the search is a lot better, not sure what client you are using.

The only difference between these maps and their data is the effort by the community to update it. Google doesn’t pay people to update places, they entice them with points and advertising. Google and Apple maps would be no different from OSM if no one updated them

Google maps only ever knew where you were going because Ingress players and Google “local guides” filled in all the data for them.

Update the out of date data. Its not hard and the more people use it the more accurate the places data will be.

Specifically OSMAnd.

Please don’t.
