"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

If you watch youtube on the tv does it block ads?

Oh I had a guide on rooting webOS but lost it, have you any resources?

[–] lemming741@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Depends on your hardware and firmware. I think dev mode works no matter what. I've been fortunate, both mine had exploits

No, I wish Pi-Hole blocked the ads that are embedded directly into the YT stream. I don't watch YT on my TV only on my computer. If you use Firefox with the uBlock Origin extension, you can block all of those annoying embedded YT ads. I haven't seen ads on YouTube in years, and whenever I watch it without the extension, it feels strange.

Yeah absolutely how I watch youtube but if there was a big screen way I would be so in. I wont pay google thought

I presume the LG OS is some version of Android. If you can get into the admin menus or use an android streaming box, there are several YouTube alternative apps that don't show the ads. Pipe pipe is y favorite.

Not android, actually it's WebOS which Palm developed first on their Pré line of smartphones before being bought out and then subsequently destroyed by HP. HP sold the OS to LG who has been putting on their TVs ever since.

WebOS was way ahead of it's time and actually did a lot of things that both Android and iOS later copied years later.

I had no idea, that's a cool bit of history!

I wish it worked on Roku. Wat hing shows on the PC is great, then I watch the same streaming service on Roku and gets ads.
