I just got a 4k TCL QLED TV from Costco a couple months ago. Have been quite pleased with the image quality so far, but I keep it disconnected from the internet, and only use it with my nvidia shield running the projectivity launcher as the home screen to switch between smart tube, Plex, and steam link.
Not an ad in sight.
If the phone rings, by the time I get to it they've usually already hung up or reached voicemail, so I only end up answering if its important enough to call me twice.
Apps that depend on talking to specific hardware ( including the GPU) do not always work in a VM.
Unless you go about setting up IOMMU groups with QEMU/KVM... (And have a second GPU to hand over to the VM.)
Somewhere in the ballpark of 50 DeVito's
Nextcloud.
Does everything from GSuite that I need it to, but without looking through everything I upload, and analyzing it for advertising and other purposes that I wouldn't consent to.
Meanwhile it is your capitalist bosses giving out free lunch to justify the lack of a payrise in the last 5 years.
Reddit.com/r/piracy is also a good place to avoid. Especially their well documented megawiki with lists of loads of sites that facilitate copyright infringement for all forms of media. Avoid at all costs.
I bought a new TCL TV recently. Stunning visuals for the price. But I had to jump through a load of unnecessary crap to keep it from phoning home, letting every tech company on the face of the planet know what I watch at 3am every morning before heading out to work.
Need to keep it disconnected from the internet, plugged into an Nvidia Shield that had the projectivity launcher installed alongside plex and steam link, and with a whitelist on my router preventing it from accessing anything other than my media server and linux pc, because that covers all I will ever use the TV for.
End result: a near dumb TV that is able to watch anything I want to watch, and play any game I want to play, but without all of the ads and tracking nonsense.
KVM, QEMU, Looking Glass
Assuming its midday, and the moon is on or near the horizon, it would actually still be seen for an additional 1.3 seconds after we see the sun disappear. If its high in the sky however, it would disappear only a few ms after the sun, unless it was in a full or partial eclipse, where it would disappear at the same time to our eyes.
That'll work too, along with any USB webcam
Yes.
