<p>The only decent device out there will be Nvidia Shield.<p>As a Google certified Android TV, this means it will do Widevine L1 DRM decoding, give you the 4K streaming quality.<p>For TV I used to recommend Sony, but now they sold the whole business to China TCL. Will have to wait and see if TCL will enshittify it.</p>

<p>The "First they came for the Communists" logic still holds. When government able to open the flood gate, the mandatory ID check will be slowly and surely be everywhere.<p>If you don't use social media and AI platform. Fine. But what about app stores, what about any registries from docker, to npm, to apk and toward the end source code repositories like Github/Codeberg?</p>

<p>I think you are overly optimistic and forget a few key facts here.<p>According to wiki, 8% of males and 0.5% of female suffer from colorblindness. That means for the rest of the people, the color is part of the information that our brain use subconsciously when we go and grab a bag of Calbee.<p>Will it affect the Japanese general public? Minor inconvenience for sure.
Will it affect sales? Probably for area popular by tourist? Maybe it move the needle by 1%?<p>But what's important that's below the fold is there could be other knock on effect as naphtha is used to make other product.</p>

<p>Instead of soon, how about just "now"?<p>I would imagine not single everyone on HN have enough disposable income that allow us to subscribe Claude Max or other similar max plan of other models without thinking.<p>Some people mentioned open weight model, but there are two hurdles. One the current economic mean securing the best hardware is already stupidly expensive compare to a year or two ago. And the open weight model lack the magic that Claude/Gemini/OpenAI put in the proprietary one, meaning one will have to create their own agent that is clever enough to search the internet when it knows its training data is stale.</p>

<p>As a Hongkonger, native in Cantonese (zh-hk/yue) and fluent in English (en) and work in Singapore (en-sg & zh-sg), I have a even more mundane use case that Siri is not clever enough to support.<p>I want my location to be in Singapore (Singapore SIM/Card etc)
I want my UI to be in English.
I want my Siri speaks Cantonese to me.<p>For reason on Apple knows why, I have to use English (Singapore) as my UI and Siri language or Apple Intelligence will not turn on. As if the engineer who develop Siri/Apple Intelligence have never think about the needs of those who speaks more than one language.</p>
