There aren’t standardized screens for smartphones, as the inside of the screens typically has a bespoke aluminum chassis they are adhered to as part of their construction.
And since every single phone model has different insides, every screen is bespoke to its model.
You have to look on ebay for your phones screen model.
If you look for ones with a couple dead pixels they are pretty affordable though.
I feel like this is more “how we feel we get perceived by others” moreso.
I try and perceive all the members of my team as, well, my team. I heavily appreciate everyone busting their assess off and contributions.
However, there are folks on each layer that do actually treat others like this and I think we can all agree those people suuuuck.
In Canada the Cert and the Degree are separate.
You typically through getting your degree also become certified, but the key is while your degree lasts forever, the Cert has to be maintained and renewed.
Cert has a lifetime and expires and you have to keep it up to date.
In Alberta for example the regulatory authority is APEGA: https://alis.alberta.ca/occinfo/certifications-in-alberta/engineer/
I think even technically the license is also a separate piece of paperwork.
Degree: you completed school at some point
Cert: up to date on current practices, must be maintained, requires the degree
License: you are legally allowed to practice in the province/country and have registered. Requires degree+cert
What if they are actually a software engineer, with a cert? >_>;
I have worked with actual cert’d engineers on web projects, lol
Wait you can remap those buttons too? Damn I gotta look into this!
Whether or not you care about ads doesn’t have any bearing on what is, and isn’t, misinfo.
I don’t like ads either and use piholes on my network.
Doesn’t change the fact the news article is misinformation, plain and simple.
Well the issue with what the above poster described is Samsung TV litters the autoplay on everything, so you feel like you are playing minesweeper trying to find somewhere you can leave the cursor without triggering an autoplay.
At least on the CCwGTV there’s just the one big ad at the top, but everything else is a “safe” zone to leave the cursor, abd the cursor starts out default on the app row.
Also, CCwGTV allows you to just switch to a different launcher (without ads) entirely if you wish.
I have this issue with Netflix’s app, pretty much every tile will loudly autoplay if you don’t touch the cursor for a second, taking over the screen. You have to hit the back button to pop-up the settings menu to stop that from happening otherwise you’ll walk away from your TV with some random 10s trailer playing on loop forever while you deal with something.
You and I have very different definitions of misinformation then.
Oh, yeah innthat case I agree.
Either way the mechanic of “you have to move the cursor to purposefully hover on the ad, abd then wait multiple seconds, and then not click anything” opt in behavior on the ads has lnt changed since day one.
So seeing news articles pretending this is anything new at all really just goes to show how shit “journalism” has gotten over the years. Literally like, 5s of looking this up and you’ll find out this isn’t anything new.
SMH
I bought CCwGTV when it first came out, I don’t recall the adbar at the top ever not being present.
It just was strictly ads for TV shows / movies for the first while and “external” ads for stuff like mcdonalds only showed up later.
But I’m pretty sure I remember ads for Black Widow on it front and center, and that was only 5? 6? months after it came out. (The ads were showing up 1-2 months prior to theatrical release iirc?)
So you think it’s okay to spread misinformation if it’s about a giant corporation?
Misinformation is never okay, as it muddies the waters and makes it hard to know what you can trust. If we idly stand by and let a lemmy instance degrade to the point where garbage posts like this are commonplace, it becomes difficult to sift apart the actual news and stuff that matters from the shit deluge of misinfo.
Which means, yes, calling out misinformation / shit posts even if it’s about a megacorp, because shit in the water is still shit in the water.
I bought the Chromecast with Google TV (older version, not the newer 4k one, which I also own now) when it first cane out.
The home screen hasn’t changed since day 1 when I plugged it in.
It always had an ad at the top, and you always have had to purposefully move the cursor onto the ad itself and not touch anything for multiple seconds before it played.
I owned the OG chromecast and chromecast 2 before that, and you are right, that one didn’t have ads, but it also didn’t have much of anything really.
It’s one thing to advertise a show or an app / service that is in the App Store but another to show actual ads.
Most of the time it’s this, rarely mcdonalds or Harvey’s has an ad like this you need to hover over for several seconds to play, intentionally, and people turn it into rage bait garbage posts.
90% of the time it’s just an add for a TV show or movie, and you still have to purposefully hover over it unmoving to start it playing, it’s pretty opt in.
I don’t even notice it, the ad starts out small at the top and your cursor starts out on the Apps row, you have to very intentionally trigger the ad.
90% of the time the ads are for movies or TV shows on the streaming services you have installed (and presumably an account for) anyways, so there’s been non zero times where I did go abd hover the ad to watch it cuz I was like “oh hey I actually wanna watch that, is it coming out soon? No shit!”
The other 10% if the time it’s mcdonalds or Harvey’s or whatever, I barely notice it as I spend pretty much all of my time with the Google tv “inside” an app.
Very little time gets spent on the home screen, it’s a glorified Start menu to pick an app and open it up, so I don’t, to be blunt, give much of a shit that for half a second I can see a big Mac at the top of my TV screen before I click the 1 button to open Netflix.
Also more often than not I use my phone app to push to the TV, so my process is:
TV is turned off atm, I open on my phone (Netflix, Disney plus, crunchyroll, Amazon prime, YouTube, etc)
I click the cast button on my phone
TV auto detects activity, starts turning on, meanwhile my chromecast is already loading up the app and booting into it
By the time my TV screen flips on, the app is opened as well and my content starts to play, so u never even saw the home screen in the first place
End result: I rarely even see the app realistically anywho.
You have to cursor over it for several seconds and click nothing before it plays, you have to intentionally opt into triggering it.
Nope.
That’s just how the ad at the top looks and always has, and yes, it plays if you hover over it, they always have, and yes, it expands out if you keep watching it and don’t touch anything.
If you use the UI normally the ad doesn’t play, the person in that video explicitly played the ad.

Get this clickbait shit outta here. It’s literally an ai generated article that stole content off a reddit post as it’s “source”. Have some standards people.
The biggest saving would actually be the buns I would bet.
You could make your own 8 burger buns for like 10 cents.
I hate when people buy fancy bespoke food and are like “why do my gluten free vegan free range burgers cost so much?”
If you want to be vegetarian/vegan, go buy normal vegis, don’t complain about your super fancy “takes a bunch of extra work and has very low demand” food being expensive.
Nowadays it’s less of an issue with docker and whatnot.
Just set the image to refresh every night at midnight and if they tried to make manual changes it’ll just revert back to its original state at midnight.
Customers don’t really get direct access to deployed code now, it’s buried under like 4 layers of abstraction on most CDNs now.
Simply deploying to azure already smears multiple layers of access control and RBAC overtop that it’s hard enough for me, the dev, to answer the question if “what is actually deployed atm?”, let alone for the customer to get in their and meddle.
