  • We have a HiSense 60” and have never connected it to any network. It works perfectly as a Dumb Monitor with multiple HDMI inputs and HDCP and HDMI-CEC work perfectly with our AppleTV (HDMI 1) and PS5 (HDMI2) We have TOSLink Optical Audio to an Amp(receiver) and it works almost perfectly, until the Amp chucks a hissy-fit because people forget to turn it off.




  • I had Corel WordPerfect for Linux.

    You could modify the SGML codes to create documents that were compatible with all other versions of WordPerfect and MS Word, but he features that were supported in the document format, but not in the software.

    For instance, I could change use more than the 16 colours that the Word for Windows UI allowed you to use, even though the displayed correctly in the WYSIWYG editor and printed correctly.

    I think you a both right. Historically, Semites referred to a large cultural group.

    Over time, it has become a nonsense word because those cultural groups have become so dilute and diverse that you can’t point at someone and say they are part of that group.

    More recently, the label has become misappropriated by some sort of whacky religious nutbaggery so they can oppress other people.











  • “Real drivers” prefer lightweight cars that are more responsive and can corner, take off and stop on a dime.

    Track racing, off-road racing and even Motorkhana and technical rock-crawling is more fun in a vehicle that is the bare minimum.

    The only reason any driver would want something with superfluous extra weight is in Monster Trucks for stability, and then only if they are a shit driver.

    Even Tractor pulls (where the object is to pull a heavy weight) need the right balance of power:weight and ballast to have sufficient traction to offset the dead weight of the load.
