When asked if the Saudis demand the establishment of a Palestinian state as a condition for recognizing Israel, US President Trump, sitting alongside Israeli PM Netanyahu in the Oval Office, swiftly replied: “No, they’re not.”
The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs respond, stating that its stance on the establishment of a Palestinian state remains “firm and unwavering,” insisting that Riyadh would make no deal with Tel Aviv otherwise.

The Saudi–Israeli normalization 'delusion'
While Saudi–Israeli rapprochement may be Trump's diplomatic fantasy, deep-rooted regional realities, shifting West Asian interests, and Palestinian national aspirations make it an elusive mirage rather than an imminent deliverable.thecradle.co
> Germany was already looking like lost ground for Tesla—its 41 percent drop in 2024 accounted for most of Tesla's lost sales across Europe. That must make the 59 percent drop in German Tesla sales recorded during January even more painful on the profit and loss statements.

This color-infrared image shows sand #dunes in Melas Chasma, located within the Valles Marineris canyon system.
The dark-blue and purple colors indicate coarse-grained sands that are comprised of basalt, an iron and magnesium-rich volcanic rock that formed from cooled lava millions of years ago when volcanism was an active process on #Mars.
Migrating sand dunes often lead to the erosion and excavation of underlying material.

shit always loops back around to planned obsolescence. if you don’t do it, you will not succeed.

Comes with 32 GB storage and a USB 3 port to add storage to it.

I got an Apple TV box and it has been fantastic. I still see some Apple TV ads when turn it on? But they are much less annoying and contained to one play. Not mixed in with the app I’m trying to open.

I just wish we could sideload apps. This thing could do so much more, but Apple has it way too locked down.

I know NFS exists but it's too confusing for me, particularly authentication.

in reply to Troll • • •Hell, my fucking $2000 OLED came with a shit processor and only 8GB of storage; it's laggy as fuck and only had room for one more app. Had to remove a bunch of crap via ADB just for the TV to be usable. It's annoying as fuck that even high-end TVs come with the equivalent of a $50 Chinese phone under the hood.
Does anyone know of a box I can plug into the TV that actually has a decent CPU, at least 12GB of RAM, and usable storage space? It also needs to run on Android, and have a HDMI 2.1 port for 4K 120Hz support with HDR. I watch a lot of HFR content and stream PC games so this is a must. The remote should also be able to control the TV (including entering the menu), and the Dolby Atmos receiver too. Last thing I want is for the wife to complain about having to juggle 2 or 3 remotes just to watch Stremio.

At present nothing needs this much RAM and I say this as a power user who runs a local media server and is familiar with concepts such as running Plex with remote transcoding on devices such as the Shield. The only things that come close to this much RAM might be recent generation gaming consoles like Xbox or Playstation but they don't run Android and aren't built for streaming, remote controls are third party accessories.
Other problems: I'm unaware of any devices even without the high RAM request that exist that fulfill all of those asks. Particularly 4k 120hz seems to be something no one has any interest in putting in a streaming box despite plenty of them having HDMI 2.1. I checked and even Apple TV 4K's do not support 120hz despite having the right hardware for it.
Fact is commercial streaming services which these devices exist to cater to have no interest in 120fps/hz content, even 60fps with dolby vision is kind of more bandwidth than they like using and they upcharge prem

Basically your choices are (all these assume giving up the RAM ask):
* Run two devices, one for local streaming of things like games and 120fps content, one for watching streaming services that's Android TV certified and will get you 4k content from them (at only 60fps). Cost is probably going to be north of $300. You can with this option get a mini-PC and kind of hack together a game streaming solution and if you want you can put 12GB of RAM in it but you won't need them.
* Buy something that ticks most of the boxes but either give up the ability to stream 4K content from commercial services (because no Android TV certification) OR give up the 120fps demand. If you're willing to give up the 120hz you might look into the Dune-HD premier 4k pro which has full Android TV support and certification for 4K streaming from all the major services, does 4k 60fps, has very impressive specs for a streaming device (top of the line) and is $200 and you can add an SSD to increase the storage from acceptable 32GB to well over a TB if desired. Otherwise if you're willing to give up 4K from commercial streaming services and get only 1080p from them they have a few 8K devices that do have support for 120fps but the price doubles and if you want 4k on the major streaming services you'll need another device.
Other options if you're willing to give up the 120hz demand would be the Nvidia Shield Pro. As to a remote that controls everything, I believe the Dune-HD remotes do have that capability but honestly your wants are really specific and high end. Most people would use two boxes if they HAD to have all you've asked for.
You might also consider waiting to see if Valve does release a streaming device like they've teased. If Valve does something like that it might finally be the golden one that has 120hz support though you're still not going to get 12GB of RAM. But you're looking at waiting a year at least I think even if that does materialize and it may not.

I use this for both regular TV streaming apps, Twitch, YouTube and Jellyfin.
and my non-technical wife both uses it and loves it because it's way faster than your usual built in TV apps.
I picked it up from my local best buy.
