So the only way to opt out of this hell is to kill your internet connection?

No. It’s actually simple to disable. On the Roku TV just go to:

Settings > Privacy > Select Smart TV Experience and disable “Use Info from TV Inputs”

On your Roku TV go to Settings > Privacy > Select Smart TV Experience and disable “Use Info from TV Inputs”

Normal people: Serling. Although it’s often understandably confused with ‘Sterling’ as that’s a more familiar word and sounds very similar.

Idiots: No, no, no, I am from a parallel universe.

Mahershala Ali said it’s still in development yesterday. But who knows… I love Blade and think he’s a great pick for the role so it’s super frustrating that it was announced four years ago and it’s still two years away at the earliest… Dude’s gonna be 51 by the time the character even shows up in the MCU. So either Blade isn’t gonna be around very long or we’re looking at a daywalker that’s gonna need to use an actual walker to get around by the second movie.

Oh fuck yeah new JET SET RADIOOOOOOOOO

Yep. Shame on any company or individual that’s still active on Twitter. It’s a nazi platform now and there’s no excuse to still be there. Mastodon exists, so if you’re still on Twitter you are part of the problem.

!moviesandtv@lemm.ee is a pretty great community if you’re into movies and tv. It’s where a lot of the regulars from moviesandtv@lemmy.film went after the lemmy.film instance was shut down.

Hey all!

It looks like most of you had difficulty reaching the site for about 5 minutes, but those issues should have subsided.

During that time, you may have been shown an incorrect error message that read:

Whoa there, pardner! reddit's awesome and all, but you may have a bit of a problem.

Make sure your User-Agent is not empty, is something unique and descriptive and try again. if you're supplying an alternate User-Agent string, try changing back to default as that can sometimes result in a block.

To share some additional context on what happened - we pushed a bad code change in our tooling that resulted in a significant amount of users getting blocked without doing anything wrong. So if you happened to see that error message within the last hour, don’t fret! We’ve reverted the code change that caused this error and things should be back to normal very soon if they aren’t already.

Spellcheck: lol that’s not even a word, idiot. Read a fuckin’ book.

I buy nearly everything generic but generic Band-Aids have terrible adhesive so I always buy name brand.

Yeah, this is a case of a brand that’s been subject to trademark genericization where the knock-offs and generic products genuinely aren’t as good.

Try a different server. I’ve never had any issues accessing bleepingcomputer with Mullvad.

lol nah, pass.

That’s awesome! I use the Clear URLs extension and it does a great job but it’ll be nice to have this capability baked in.

Not sharing my code because:
