I don’t need or want DRM so I can’t comment on that.

What I can say is that the RPI5 is way overkill. I originally ran Kodi on a RPI4 but it was constantly running hot so I switched to a RPI3 and it is much better.

The RPI has CEC support

KDE connect is not coach friendly

The old software versions support Lineage OS. If you can find one that was unlocked before they broke unlocking you are in luck. If not Google is bad for privacy.

Do you need 4k oled?

Is it any good?

They TV companies make lots of money from selling ad space and preinstalled apps. (They likely sell at a loss initially)

My alternative is OSMC running on a RPI 3

It isn’t going to win any awards but it does work nicely with a Bluetooth remote

That’s a pretty solid machine

None

There are always exploits to be used. Also there isn’t a lot of use in kernel specific exploits

Stop your devil worship

What if they are Autistic or have some other reason they struggle to smile?

You should’ve changed this to the Pope

I can’t wait for the 80 trillion dollar investment

That’s only true if you believe one side. The Democrats have also repeatedly expanded surveillance just like the Republicans. There only seem to be a handful of congress people who are are concerned with privacy.

Not a meme

Funny? Kind of. However it isn’t a meme

The scary part is that it will take weeks for you to die.

I like how both sides are constantly complaining about the erosion of free society and democracy but both sides also support questionable legislation.

They make more money the harder and longer you are engaged. Better to do your own research.

You should do your own research. NPR is like many other news outlets in the sense that they prioritize the clickbait style stuff. I don’t like how these media outlets are constantly acting like the world is ending. To be fair the industry has pushed them in that direction but that doesn’t make it right.
