So this is why my TV walked into the bathroom while I was dropping a deuce. 🤔

So which brand is the better of em? I just received my pi so I’ll set up a pi hole but I need a tv. I looked at conference room monitors and they’re too expensive, even on eBay. I could just not connect it to the net, yes, but I can tell ya right now that the other people in the house will definitely connect it to the net and not have patience for using the pc, etc

I bought a commercial digital signage TV. No Roku/Chromecast/whatever, but the damn thing STILL has Ethernet and Wi-Fi and nagged me about setting it up on the internet. I'm only buying computer monitors from here on out.

Even monitors are beginning to become "smart" now...

While they are at it take a look at car manufacturers too.

Don’t forget that if you connect external devices to them, they’re also taking snapshots of the content “so they can serve targeted ads”.
