Wife found that on the TV which has Roku. Thank You

What's Trump got to do with it..Trump sells Bibles and sneakers? Did you buy yours yet? My home was built in 1963, 60 amp service.

I crack up laughing ever time I see an EV somewhere, stupidest vehicle ever made.

Limited

I would NEVER own any EV junk if it were given to me for free, they are complete garbage. There are only 2 charging stations in this large county I'm told.

Weird, I don't know anyone who has one..1 neighbor couple miles away has a Prius but he is flaming Liberal and that makes sense.

I wouldn't have one if it were free.

Or come here Legally!

News Zuckerberg Declares the End of Mobile Phones and Confirms the Tech That’s Replacing ThemMark Zuckerberg just made a bold prediction that could change everything. Smartphones, the device we rely on daily, may soon become obsolete. A new technology is emerging, promising to replace screens and revolutionize how we interact with the digital world. Arezki Amiri Published on March 15, 2025 Read : 3 min 29 Zuckerberg Declares the End of Mobile Phones and Confirms the Tech That’s Replacing Them | The Daily Galaxy --Great Discoveries Channel For nearly three decades, smartphones have ruled our lives—until now. If Mark Zuckerberg is right, their reign is coming to an end. In less than a decade, he predicts that smart glasses will take over as our main connection to the digital world, making smartphones a thing of the past. It might sound impossible, but the race has already begun. Meta, Apple, and other tech giants are pouring billions into augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) to make this future a reality. The question is: are we really ready to ditch our phones forever? Are Smartphones on Their Way Out?We check them hundreds of times a day. They control our schedules, social lives, and even how we shop, but smartphones are becoming more of a burden than a convenience. Endless notifications. Screen fatigue. The constant need to be “plugged in.” People are getting tired of staring at a handheld screen all day. Tech insiders believe the next big innovation isn’t upgrading smartphones—it’s replacing them entirely. Zuckerberg envisions a world where you never have to pull a device out of your pocket again. Instead, all your digital interactions—texts, calls, navigation, entertainment—will be seamlessly displayed in front of your eyes using smart glasses. Meta’s Orion: The Next Step in ARZuckerberg’s vision isn’t just speculation—it’s already taking shape. Meta’s Orion project, revealed at the Meta Connect 2024 event, is described as the most advanced smart glasses ever built. These futuristic glasses feature holographic displays that project virtual images into the real world, making it possible to text, call, or navigate without reaching for a phone. Unlike previous AR experiments, Orion isn’t just a gadget—it’s designed to completely replace the smartphone. With eye-tracking, voice commands, and hand gestures, users can interact with digital content effortlessly. Ray-Ban Meta: Smart Glasses Go MainstreamMeta isn’t stopping with Orion. The company has also partnered with Ray-Ban to bring smart glasses to the masses. The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses combine Ray-Ban’s signature design with Meta’s AI-driven technology, packing cameras, speakers, and voice control into a stylish frame. While not as advanced as Orion, these glasses represent a crucial step toward making AR wearables mainstream. If people get comfortable using glasses for music, photos, and calls, the shift away from smartphones will feel more natural. Apple’s Vision Pro and the AR RaceMeta isn’t alone in this race. Apple’s Vision Pro is a clear sign that the smartphone era is evolving. Unlike Orion, Apple’s headset is bulkier and focused on mixed reality experiences, but it proves that Apple, too, is investing heavily in a future beyond smartphones. Other companies, including Google and Samsung, are also working on their own AI-powered smart glasses, all aiming for the same goal: freeing users from their phones. Smart glasses won’t just be screens strapped to your face—they’ll be AI-powered personal assistants. Voice commands will replace touchscreen taps. Instant translations will remove language barriers in real time. AI overlays will enhance the world around you, providing information before you even ask for it. It’s a vision of a world where technology integrates seamlessly into real life, rather than keeping people glued to their screens. Imagine walking down the street, and directions appear in your vision—no need to check Google Maps. You glance at a restaurant, and its menu and reviews pop up instantly. A friend messages you, and the text appears in your peripheral vision, no phone required.

US deports hundreds of Venezuelans despite court orderBrandon Drenon - BBC News, Washington DC Sun, March 16, 2025 at 7:44 PM UTC 4 min read [Reuters] Planes carrying more than 200 Venezuelans deported from America have landed in El Salvador, hours after a US judge ordered the Trump administration not to do so. El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele wrote on social media that 238 members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua had arrived, along with 23 members of the international MS-13 gang, on Sunday morning. Their arrival in the central American nation came after a federal judge blocked US President Donald Trump from invoking a centuries-old wartime law to justify the deportations - something Bukele made fun of in a later post. "Oopsie... Too late," he said. The move by the US to send alleged criminals from other countries to El Salvador was an arrangement US Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously called "the most unprecedented and extraordinary migratory agreement anywhere in the world". Bukele wrote that the detainees were immediately transferred to El Salvador's notorious mega-jail, the Terrorism Confinement Center (Cecot), "for a period of one year", something that was "renewable" - suggesting they could be held there for longer. "The United States will pay a very low fee for them, but a high one for us," he added.Rubio confirmed the alleged gang members' arrival in El Salvador and thanked Bukele, calling him "the strongest security leader in our region". Hours beforehand, on Saturday evening, US District Judge James Boasberg ordered a halt to deportations covered by Trump's proclamation, which invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. The law allows the government to detain and deport people threatening the country's safety without due process. It is unclear whether everyone deported to El Salvador has been convicted of a crime or is a member of a gang. Amnesty International USA wrote on X that the deportations were "yet another example of the Trump administration's racist targeting" of Venezuelans "based on sweeping claims of gang affiliation". The alleged criminals were transported to El Salvador's mega-jail [Reuters] Venezuela criticised invoking the wartime measure, saying it "unjustly criminalises Venezuelan migration" and "evokes the darkest episodes in the history of humanity, from slavery to the horror of the Nazi concentration camps". After hearing that planes with deportees had taken off, Judge Boasberg ordered them to turn back, the Washington Post reported. Rubio said in a statement on Sunday that the deportations happened under the Alien Enemies Act, and made no mention of the judge's ruling. He said: "Hundreds of violent criminals were sent out of our country." Their deportation despite the judge's ruling has raised legal questions. A lawyer from a rights group involved in the lawsuit against the White House said she had asked the government on Sunday whether the court's order had been violated. "[We] are waiting to hear, as well as trying to do our own investigation," Lee Gelernt with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said in a statement. The Department of Justice had appealed against the judge's ruling overnight, according to the BBC's media partner CBS News. The BBC has contacted the Justice Department for comment. A video attached to one of Bukele's social media post shows lines of people with their hands and feet shackled being escorted by armed officials from the planes. Some are placed into the back of armoured vehicles, while others, hunched over as officers push their heads down, are forced onto buses. The video also shows an aerial view of a long, winding police escort leading the buses into El Salvador's Cecot jail. The newly built maximum-security jail is part of Bukele's effort to crack down on the country's organised crime. The facility, which can hold up to 40,000 people, has been criticised by human rights groups for maltreatment of inmates. Cecot, which can hold up to 40,000 people, has been criticised by human rights groups [Reuters] The arrangement between the US and El Salvador is a sign of strengthening diplomatic ties. "Thank you for your assistance and friendship," Rubio told Bukele on Sunday. El Salvador was the second country Rubio, America's top diplomat, visited after he was sworn in. During that trip, which took place in February, Bukele made an initial offer to take US deportees, saying it would help pay for the massive Cecot facility. The latest deportations under Trump's second term are part of the president's long-running campaign against illegal immigration in the US. In January, Trump signed an executive order declaring Tren de Aragua and MS-13 foreign terrorist organisations. He won voters on the campaign trail, in part, by promising to enact the largest deportation operation in US history. The agenda has so far not met expectations, with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents not meeting Trump's daily quota for arrests. A recent report suggested ICE agents had deported fewer immigrants in February than they had the same month a year prior during the previous administration under Joe Biden - 11,000 in February 2025, compared to 12,000 in February 2024 - according to NBC News. However, since Trump took office illegal border crossings have plummeted to the lowest number in decades.

What's a "Tesler"?

Thanks

Goojara and dozens of others have free everything.. Exactly what I've been trying to tell you. It's Magic.

Ok, wife wants to drop Dish and wanted to know if she can watch her TV shows she likes on Roku which she was going to buy where she works at Walmart, she has been talking to the Electronics Tech there.. since then I found the Roku on my TV but looks like it's mostly You Tube channels or whatever they call them. She likes a bunch of shows like the FBI shows, Swat, Rescue High Surf, etc. etc...

As far as?

Yes sir.

Find what you want to watch on the Desktop then hit win k and it transfers to the TV.

I beleive you might be correct, we just watched the latest episode of 1923.

Everything I want to watch is free, 1000's of shows old and new, local channels too.. other than the Wifi which I need anyhow for Buiness purposes..Cell phones don't work here either so Wifi calling is what I use. As far as Internet the wifi and internet are both from the same place using the Router which is wrote off each year as a Business expense so costs are minimal to us.

I have Wifi for my Business and write it off so it's basically free. Can also get free Wifi off the Locals here.

We don't have Cable, we have Dish which we're canceling. I only need wifi to get everything for free, no charge at all, none.

Roku is a better choice overall because it has more features and device options, and it has more channels/apps overall, including free content. However, it only works with Google and Alexa. This is what I found^^^

$150 for what, the Roku or Dish network?
