I guess that it's probably not | your everyday machine. I put a USB drive into the port of my TCL-Roku TV and up popped a window saying that they intended to share its contents with its "partners." Then I read Roku's privacy policy. I said screw this and decided to take the television's internet privileges away. So all I'm using now are the screen and its audio-handling -- ARC and CEC circuits. This worked out well enough that I made another, with just a monitor instead of a TV at all. It is different in operation, but in my estimation better. and far more private. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/ ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
