July 18 in certain states per the official website: https://www.humansfirst.com/july-18-datacenters

The “end times” have been coming for 2,000 years now. You’d think after the first 500 or so they would have started reevaluating their prophecies… But religion is a helluva drug.

Yikes… I’m definitely not turning the wifi back on after reading that!

I don’t think internet was required for setup, but in each case I did want to get the latest firmware in case there were fixes to the UI or whatever. But I never use the built-in apps or anything, I have a media box for that stuff.

I had a 65" Hisense TV for just over a year, and a firmware update bricked it. It was stone dead, and Hisense wouldn’t even try to repair it. So I spent a little extra money and got a Samsung instead. And once it was set up, I turned off its wifi…just in case.

Hisense can eat a bag o’ dicks.

Dude looks a bit like Bill Murray.

I automatically heard that headline in Corvo’s voice before even realizing it.
