One problem — YouTube app on Apple TV 4K doesn’t play 4K or HDR (doesn’t use VP9/VP9.2 codec). This is such a stupid pissing contest between Apple and Google. It’s truly wonderful when multi-billion dollar companies can’t cooperate for the benefit of the customers who made them.

But also this is a perfect example of why an external box is better than a smart TV. Once your TV has hardware decoders, good luck upgrading that when better video codecs are released in a few years. At least with the Apple TV you can replace that part and keep the same panel.

Is this a VP9 vs HEVC thing? I assume the Apple TV is too low power to implement software decoding and needs hardware support, but that means a new Apple TV to get VP9, if Apple will even add that since they're all in on HEVC? What a mess.

The purpose of automation is to allow shorter certs and the reasons for shorter certs are many. Also, automated processes are more reliable than human processes.

The TVs are actively gathering data by design and proven security breaches if they have a mic or camera. I’m not a tin foil hat person... I use Zoom, a credit card, and even a Safeway member number. But no way would I connect my TV to the internet. AppleTV is the firewall.

💯 hard same.

I bought a "commercial display" because it's almost impossible to find a not-smart TV these days.

Just give me a panel and I'll add the smarts I trust (Apple TV) externally.

I count static HTML as data :) and way more robust than databases over that time period (my blog has been plain text files for 20 years, rendering/editing code changed a half dozen times)

Ending a Zoom call with “I gotta go”
- boring
- impersonal
- not true

Leaving a Zoom call with “It appears my time has come.”
- mysterious
- can be said with an elegant bow
- is he a wizard?

Seriously every half-way decent #W3C staff member knew the #DID decentralized credential system was basically a scam with terrible privacy properties, a repeat of Drummond Reed's equally moronic XRI effort (remember @blaine?) that killed OpenID. Of course, hustlers never learn.
