No, let me be clear. I have no problem with Voice Recognition. I do have a problem with the recorded audio being beamed back to Samsung HQ, however...

yeah, you just need to do the research and find a brand that doesn't do that (like Sony or something)

Personally I do prefer dumb TVs, the more like a computer monitor the better.

I get all my smartness from the attached Raspberry Pi and Chromecast.

I see your attached Raspberry Pi and Chromecast and raise you an attached Raspberry Pi, Chromecast, Roku, AVR, PS4, XBox360, Wii, and laptop.

Actually that's all attached to a 4 year old projector, which is as dumb as it gets.

Star Trek NG onwards is the reason why Smart TVs that listen and 10Gb circuits waiting in the wings are just the start of what's coming.

I want a holodeck and a replicator. When I win the euromillions I am going to be cryogenically frozen for as long as it takes to develop the technology.

Call me, mon General. I'll cryo-freeze you and look after your Euromillions.

Oh I've got more **** attached, those are just the things I'd class as making it "smart".

That said, it's not that smart because CEC never ****ing works the way I want it to.

3D printing is probably only a few (technology) generations off basically being replication technology.

It's already replication technology. Just not very good.

First thing we did when our new 3D scanner and printer was installed is we replicated the manager's mug - i.e. stuck it in the 3D scanner and then 3D printed out the scan.

Poses several questions:

1. Why would a future civilisation want to revive you?

Not being rude but all your current knowledge would be as obsolete as knowing how to code a TSR.

2. Who will pay? Unless you've made suitable investments.

3. Could you catch up?
