    As I said to someone else, I’m well aware, and I have a linux PC connected to our main TV where I can pirate anything, but I refuse to invest any time or money into the cheap TV I bought for our gaming room. I’m not going to buy yet more HDMI cables and a wireless keyboard and such just because the TV won’t function as advertised.

    I have however switched to using our PS4 as the main streaming device, which updates much less frequently and usually works. I just like to point out how stupid smart things are.

      Absolutely, I didn’t mean to imply you were wrong for calling them out.

        Sorry, but I’m getting a lot of insufferable techbeards lecturing me in a joke forum, and I’m about to nuke the whole post. I just thought some people might find it funny and be able to relate, but there are a lot of people who want to defend big greedy companies for some reason.

          You know, you don’t have to engage with everyone who comments on your post. Sounds like you’re taking on a little bit too much. Sorry for my part in that, but I hope you find a way to ease any stress you’re under.
