    What kind of shitty TV takes 30s to turn on? Ive never seen one take that long. Smart functions have literally nothing to do with how fast they turn on. In fact a lot of smart TVs, especially with Roku built in, don’t even really ever power down completely, and when you press power the screen is on and ready almost instantly.

    I also think Android has the best apps… SmartTube, Tivimate, and S0undTV can’t be beat and have no good alternatives on other platforms. I run 4k firesticks that I blocked from updates long ago so I could have my own launcher/home screen instead of the ad riddled default one, but want to upgrade eventually. Been wondering lately how well AndroidTV on x86 runs… couldn’t find anything on YouTube.







  • If you don’t mind using your phone then this is how mine is setup.

    I use Microsoft Lens on the phone to make the scans. The folder that Microsoft Lens outputs to is synced to the Paperless consume folder with Syncthing. So basically, all the scans that I take with Microsoft Lens go right into Paperless automatically.

    Even though I also have a printer/scanner, I find myself using my phone more often for convenience even if it does suffer some quality.
