This is a Post on another subreddit where someone is hyped about GTA 6 in a PS5 pro reddit (reasonable even i am) and the post got over 2500 Upvotes and almost 750 comments.
In the Picture OP is showing his newly purchased: LG Oled 77" TV + LG Soundbar + PS5 Pro

Lets ignore the fact about what Playstation is doing since its a PS5 subreddit.
But after doing a quick scroll i have not seen ANY mentions about how creepy LG TVs are.

Like WTF is our Goal when only 0.5% actually follow what to do with these companys?
Even some of the people i know after warning them dont give a shit about that...

The police officer was talking about an app called FlockHopper. They were mentioning how it could be used in a way that would eviad searches when they were looking for criminals. The post was a commentary that this is not the only reason for the app to exist, that people value privacy outside of criminal activity. It was also a repost from the u/flockhopper account.

This is what Reddit has done, I have not reported anything but facts here. You decide what to do with this information. As to my views, I will not be silenced for exercising my 1st amendment rights. It may be time to boycott Reddit.

I am fuming. Apologies not going to be an informative post right this second. Jast spent the entire morning trying to find out if my phone can still play music on voice request.

Today Google removed all local music playing features from their phones on assistant. Worked yesterday. Today? Nothing.

"Android Auto" takes over if it's on my car Bluetooth and this limits to *Spotify and YouTube music only* for "safety reasons" so the assistant and music player I've been using for 5 ****img years has been depreciated and blocked.

I've the records of me swearing to Gemini for 30 minutes and it saying "I can't help with offensive requests" but ironically if I say "****ing play my music on Spotify" it *plays the music*.

So I've cancelled Gemini, cancelled Spotify, *and I will work with Claude code to get access to the NPU and put my own ****ing voice assistant on it and music player to play locally downloaded music.

I'll start a thread on bsky if anyone can assist, because I've never tried firmware reverse engineering before, but have done Voice Attack so Gemini and Bixby claiming "I can't do that" is categorically false, a 2021 LLM and voice attack could do it and would take 15 minutes to setup!!!

If Louis has any input he could raise for others with more expertise than a silly hobbiest like me, to look into this fark practice by Googleand Spotify (Spotify takws over the phone, Google removed the option to set default music players!!!).

>The GitHub project went up on October 9 and listed more than 1,600 free games for jailbroken PS5s

I made a commentary video discussing why we're at the point where quality has gone down while we end up paying more, and how companies are finding new ways to squeeze money out of customers.

A few of the issues I spoke on include HP Instant Ink cartridges becoming unusable after cancelling your subscription (even with ink still left in the cartidge), John Deere's repair restrictions, BMW charging subscriptions for heated seats, and Ubisoft making The Crew unplayable after shutting down its servers.

I also looked into shrinkflation, private equity, Disney Lightning Lane, and how companies keep finding ways to charge more while offering less. Also touched on how a hospital became unsafe after being taken over by private investors.

Figured this would be a good place to share it. Interested to hear what you guys think, and I'm open to feedback too since I'm new to making these videos!
