Technology@lemmy.world•Hisense TVs force owners to watch intrusive ads when switching inputs, visiting the home screen, or even changing channels — practice infuriates consumers, brand denies wrongdoingEnglish
2·1 month agoFrom what I read earlier beyond the single line you quoted, this seems to be for the panels and not the processors/boards.

7·1 month agoNot trying to be a Sony Bravia shill but I have two Sony Bravia XBR (X950G and X900H) TVs. Neither of these has ever attempted to show me an advertisement. They aren’t the newest versions nor the most expensive. I don’t include YT ads since those are YT generated.

Technology@lemmy.world•Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant from NSF with "no-DEI" stringsEnglish
24·6 months agoFor context, I am an old white man engineer. I’ve worked in large and small companies over my career. Almost without fail, even with DEI policies in place, a non-white person or woman still had to be 10x more qualified than their white male counterparts to be hired. Once in the organization, they were generally put into some dead end role while far less qualified white men were advanced to higher positions. When I worked in the bible belt southeastern USA, you had the added factor of protestant christians ruling the roost too.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL one of the world’s oldest active websites lets you virtually attack Barney the DinosaurEnglish
5·6 months agoI was in my mid-20s when Barney first aired. So many of my friends were having kids, so Barney was on at their houses frequently. He was hard to avoid sometimes and it was awful.

Technology@lemmy.world•Study Boldly Claims 4K And 8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes, But Is It True?English
411·6 months agoThe study used a 44 inch TV at 2.5m. The most commonly used calculator for minimum TV to distance says that at 2.5m the TV should be a least 60 inches.
My own informal tests at home with a 65 inch TV looking at 1080 versus 4K Remux of the same movie seems to go along with the distance calculator. At the appropriate distance or nearer I can see a difference if I am viewing critically (as opposed to casually). Beyond a certain distance the difference is not apparent.
