I did not want to enable you, I only did some low effort searches.
Heh, I understand taking up a tinkering challange. Seems there are custom roms that you might be able to flash on a fire tv but there is a chance of bricking it. You need boot menu installed and root access very likely.
I would have immediatly returned it to the shop, also I wonder what brand. You are the product…certainly for 250 bucks for a 65 inch TV. They really should have given you 250 dollar + TV. Maybe a year of Netflix premium maximus 8K.
Hang on little fella!
Maybe a factory reset (hopefully) will bring back the original firmware.
I never enable the smart part. You want the smart part on a TV you are going to enable telemetry even if hou declined privacy agreements. I don't trust any TV manufacturer, for sure not LG.
I use a seperate setupbox (Shields) that I can control with a pihole. So all my other input sources like my gaming PC’s, or the ones I use for tax and insurance do not get monitored by content recognition from the tv or Google. My LG oled's work fine without updates.
It will be easy to detect if a TV is trying to connect to an open network even if you disabled the networking part. Network sniffers… I would throw out that TV in a heartbeat. Mostly hardware that can't connect to an ip start requesting connection at a frequent rate, like my Nanoleafs blocked by pihole. Very desperate….They are top of the blocked ip's.
Went in Januari 2024 for a few days. Beautiful place with a lot of history…also went to the Gallo Roman museum there…
You walk through a timeline from the earliest Neanderthal settlements to the Medieval time period. Many interesting Roman artifacts from the region exhibited + a nfc audio guide explaining the history and development of the region. Didn't take long but was interesting. Recommended.
And the gaslighting…
My kid chomping candy…”Son where did you get that from?”, “I found it”, “where?”, “duh in my mouth?”. Little fokker.
Ahrend 220. Got 2 of them. Got them second hand, only had to fix some squeeking parts with some WD-40.
They are still sold refurbished because they are really well made, EU norm certification for working safe. They started making them in 1994, and have been in production for 20 years.
Let me open this bag of lutefisk crisps for you baby.
Sounds like a variation of Baba Ghanouj, Lebanese dish. Baba Ghanouj Is made with Tahini instead of peanutbutter.
