Slower pixel response times from Qled. As far as I know Oled is the only modern display tech that can get close to CRT.

A good modern oled can get you within ~2ms difference from a CRT depending on how you measure. But the catch is the TV needs to have a low latency or "game" mode that shuts off the on-board video processing. My best recommendation is to browse TVs that are oled (not qled) in your price range, and check the listing for low latency or gaming modes. You should find something that fits the bill pretty quickly.

The larger security risk is running ANY router with proprietary firmware. All this says is the US is okay with US companies surveiling you, just not China. It's just like with Tiktok. Suddenly because China is involved its a data security issue, even though companies like Meta syphon 1000x more data from consumers. There needs to BE legislation passed around data privacy and collection as a whole, instead of targeting any company involved with China. If it's truly such a security issue, we need it resolved for all companies in the US.

Yep. For me it was Brittany Spears losing her hair from something. Media was mean to that girl.

I too have seen the WearOS watch face subscription at some point. At this point, I've made it a personal stance to not use any subscription based models.

I've done this before, it works decently well. However, the streaming resources get muddied up quite fast. One I set up maybe a year or two ago is filled with broken links. And quality is very inconsistent.

So is it possible? Absolutely. Is it something I'd recommend if you want something consistent and a dependable way to watch? Not really.

I understand the sentiment, but why is this an important separation? The legal department speaks on behalf of Nintendo more than any other branch in the company. It's all a trickle effect from the higher ups and the type of culture they want to develop. As a consumer, whether or not their actions come from legal or product development, it should still reflect on the company as a whole and impact my decisions on what to spend my cash on.
