Let’s see it then. I’m concerned when the opportunity to profit arises that perverse motives will occur.

Don’t worry. You’ll get the rest of the little ones with your feet.

Ain’t half bad.

In principle, yes, and I believe a few small hobby projects have attempted to do this and support specific TVs. However, interest in developing a custom Smart TV platform tends to get siphoned away into a project where the output from your actual platform is displayed on the TV rather than running directly on it. Simply, it’s easier to develop and maintain support across different models.

Why would you develop a custom TV OS that runs on one TV when you could develop it for any mini PC and immediately support all TVs? You’d have to develop your OS to run on each specific TV model which will make it quite hard to reach a critical mass sufficient to attract attention from developers and users alike.

The juice isn’t really worth the squeeze. It’s not like TV vendors are publishing detailed hardware specs and drivers. Writing or even porting an OS is hard. Look at the state of the Android ROM scene, and that’s about as good as it gets when some vendors are actually attempting to open source their drivers. The difficulty is much higher and the interest lower due to the existence of a viable alternative.

With that said, motivated minds have done it anyway. You just need to have the right TV for it.

Universe: whoops let me fix that.

Like the horror of this code is wrong but the program works.

Very close. But a little too soon.

I’ve been with Fastmail for a year and it’s always been a very positive experience. Good support. If I had to pick a weak link, I think the spam filtering could be better.

At least it’s better than unalived, which strikes me as especially dystopian with the self-censorship.

Can’t be held responsible for what happens next given the circumstances.

Do not try to slap the ass — that’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: there is no ass.

Ripples begin to emanate from the closest ass cheek but vanish as soon as you look away.

It’s like beholding the face of God. You immediately crash to desktop upon attempting to render even a single frame containing that much ass.

I like that one of my first thoughts was I wonder if they’ve correctly implemented special relativity. Let’s find out!

Microsoft: Our computer.

Maybe I’m being stupid but a trivial way to ensure this is just don’t connect it to the Internet in any way. No SIM card. Cut it off from the Internet after setup, and only connect to a LAN with your chosen services all physically isolated from any internet machines.

The truck already highlights that this person might not be the best decision maker. Blocking the sidewalk underlines their lack of concern for others.

2nd. They’re for texture in the soup.
