My first planetary landing in Elite:Dangerous was something to behold.

Video airplay is just inherently flawed, it seems.

I dug into some forums to try and find a solution to this, and I was able to find a few theories, none of which completely alleviated the issue for me.

Most of them centered around the wifi signal.

If you have a lot of other devices pinging Wi-Fi between your phone and the TV, this can allegedly cause disconnects and de-syncs.

If your wifi is slow, this can allegedly cause disconnects and de-syncs.

If you live in an apartment and your wifi channel is being hugged by other residents, this can allegedly cause disconnects.

I want to re-enforce the notion that none of this fixed the issue for me, but it might be worth going through the motions to see if it does for you, because some people were saying they had success after addressing these issues.

For streaming off of sites, I have actually had resounding success using my LG tv’s web browser. Connect a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. The browser actually has a built in adblocker. You still have to deal with link redirects occasionally though.

I have things configured inverse to the way you do; upvotes and downvotes appear as two separate values next to all comments and posts for me.

I prefer this, because it allows me to get a more refined look at my fellow lemmy users palate for content.

In order to manipulate objects with telekinesis, you sever the link between the object and the earths gravitational pull.

Every object you use your power on now has the ability to drift and float away if not strapped down.

This includes, but is not limited to: people, animals, and buildings.

Apple Music, YouTube, and my online banking app.

No way! You cannot possibly fall asleep holding your mouth agape!

It’s definitely a rectangular prism, and how would this be an ad? I admonished the case and only dropped a link when prompted.

You’re right! Most of them aren’t silicone though. Hard plastic

The cases that turn your phone into a sharp-edged rectangular prism are dumb as hell!

What made you think that comment was necessary?

When camping, late at night, a buddy told another one of my buddies:

“If you can see my face, I can’t see anything”.

I thought it was hilarious and concise and it still sticks with me. If your flashlight is illuminating someone’s face, they are being blinded!

 

I cannot recall the last time I was swayed by an advertisement.
