99% of what we watch is from streaming (Netflix, YouTube, etc). A dumb tv with a Chromecast probably isn’t any better.

Won’t be very long until I remove whatsapp from my phone. That one friend that doesn’t want to switch, call me I guess…
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - DexertoEnglish1·1 month agoThats true, I once had to repair my washing machine and I could only find 1 video about the same model and same repair. It was a large Russian man that I could not understand (this was before auto generated subtitles).
Anyways, I just looked at the video and copied everything he did and I fixed my machine.
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - DexertoEnglish5·1 month agoI pay for nebula, they have a lot of educational content and the price is low enough that I don’t mind it
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and LinuxEnglish4·1 month agoYeah true, but these are more business to business. RHEL support is pretty expensive, and in my experience Oracle support (maybe not really open source) is both terrible and ridiculously expensive. Maybe this will create a market for more consumer like support. Maybe that could even create new business models for open source software.
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the modern design trends you hate most?221·2 months agoI have been a software tester for a long time and I really fuckin hate these JS frameworks that try to reinvent the wheel but worse.
Like why is a fucking table now a bunch of divs? Why is a drop down (select) list a bunch of divs? With disappearing html blocks when you close the list?
HTML worked fine, why are we reinventing basic HTML but worse?
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the modern design trends you hate most?201·2 months agoWe use gitlab and I knew my coworker commited something yesterday, I deployed a new version yesterday but I wasn’t sure if I deployed before or after his commit. Why do they just show yester instead of a normal timestamp. Do these developers think we can’t read?
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the modern design trends you hate most?48·2 months agoEverything is a fucking service! NO, I don’t want to spend 2.99 every month on a app that reminds me to take a pill.
Even hardware products that basically are scrap metal if you don’t pay a monthly fee.
Camelbeard@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Denmark to raise retirement age to highest in EuropeEnglish4·2 months agoThank god in the Netherlands we are not and we did not elect a far right party as the biggest party, oh wait…
I hostely fear for the next 5 years, with far right (and anti science, anti woke, anti freedom, anti any progressive idea people had after 1950s) gaining more traction.
The article states that’s what the privacy policy sais samsung can sample every 500ms and LG every 10ms. It doesn’t really mean they are, but it’s definitely possible. A very basic way of detecting content is to take a 1000 pixels evenly spaced out over the screen and store the color values. That gives you something you can match against a database. You don’t need to process a 4K screenshot for this.
