  Samsung TV ‘Gaming Hub’ To Launch In 2022, But No Sign Of Xbox Cloud Support Yet

  NFT Management directly in your @Samsung TV. That's cool. https://news.samsung.com/...

  @StarFire2258 And the latest Eco Remote can keep itself charged by harvesting radio frequencies from your router, which seems cool as hell. https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  finally, crude ape drawings can be seen as they were always meant to be seen: as an interruption of something I actually want to watch https://twitter.com/...

  some of Samsung's 2022 TVs also include variable refresh rates up to 144Hz — up from 120Hz. They'll be among the first TVs to support AMD's FreeSync Premium Pro, too https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  You know the Smart TV features that make your TV crash or force you to update it when you just want to watch a thing or that forces Ads down your throat? Samsung has ideas to make it even worse while also destroying the planet! https://twitter.com/...

  Because Samsung is Samsung, it had to get out ahead of everyone else by announcing its 2022 TV lineup before CES even starts. This year the story with its upper-range TVs is more about software changes and new features than hardware upgrades: https://www.theverge.com/...

  Always good to see more support on ways to play in the cloud gaming space, curious to see how long it'll take Xbox to show up, after all they did have a partnership with Samsung for mobile phones and tablets originally 🤔 also stadia sponsored ads are worth noting too! https://twi…

  Smart TVs are a mistake. Just give me a dummy TV that has a place to plug in my Playstation. https://twitter.com/...

  Samsung's new 2022 lineup of smart TVs include a Gaming Hub that has access to GeForce Now, Google Stadia, and Utomik cloud gaming services. Surprisingly, Microsoft's Xbox Cloud Gaming (xCloud) isn't part of this Gaming Hub yet https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  The lack of Xbox Game Pass here is loud. Would love to know what the hurdles are there, and on which end. https://twitter.com/...

  Remember when everyone added 3D to everything. Sometimes being an early adopter is not a good thing. At least this time it's just software. https://twitter.com/...

  People are far too keen to push emerging technologies into the mainstream way before they're ready for anything more than niche, experimental use cases. The pace of change brought about by social media and smartphones has got us craving that pace for everything. https://twitter.c…

  And so begin innovative business model experiments using Web3 Being able to buy and sell NFTs through your TV 🚀 #NFT #Web3 https://www.coindesk.com/...

  vertically integrated speculative NFT integrated DRM bullshit seems to be already coming to further stop you running code you want and media that copyright law may allow you to view on devices you bought https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  Samsung to add NFT management to their TVs. Oh please make it stop. https://news.samsung.com/...

• @timsweeneyepic Tim Sweeney on x

  This effort will turn every Samsung TV with an Internet connection into not just a game console but multiple game consoles through cloud streaming! https://venturebeat.com/...

• @ldignan Larry Dignan on x

  Most interesting thing in Samsung's annual #CES2022 TVs is an NFT app. Potentially big NFT mainstreaming step. Samsung's “integrated platform for discovering, purchasing and trading digital artwork” could be a nice business if it takes a commission. https://www.techmeme.com/...

• @viss @viss on x

  if someone out there who has the resources wants to open up a shop that will sell ‘un-smarted tvs’, I'm betting there's gonna be a large market for people that just want “a huge, high res monitor that supports hdr and 60-120fps, with no smart anything” https://twitter.com/...

  Why are a bunch of techies pushing back on the web3 hype? Well it turns out when technology is hyped by VCs as the future then the entire tech industry has to jump on it just to appear relevant (see Clubhouse clones last year). Your next TV will do NFTs. https://www.theverge.com/…

• @mudit__gupta Mudit Gupta on x

  Are square TVs gonna make a comeback? Can't have black borders when displaying your NFTs. It'll cause a pump in black background JPEGs kek. Perhaps NFTs will start releasing official wide versions by just expanding the solid color background. https://www.theverge.com/...

• @hatoktalk Hatok on x

  wow I think this might actually be the most useless NFT premise to date that's genuinely impressive https://twitter.com/...

  Imagine braving CES this year in spite of everything and coming to the realisation that every announcement is going to be shoehorning some web3 nonsense into a TV/car/toilet roll holder https://twitter.com/...

  I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. What is this for? What need is being filled here? Is it impossible for me to rent a movie now with my actual money? https://www.theblockcrypto.com/ ...

  The latest grift from the same company that brought you “ads in your tv menus” was probably predictable https://www.theverge.com/...

• @eanmeyer Ean Meyer on x

  Oh hey, it's another reason to ditch @samsung TV's. “People hate the LITERAL ADVERTISEMENTS we've placed on their smart TV menus THAT CAN'T BE DISABLED. How can we take this to the next level?” Garbage. Total garbage. I just want a 4k display, but big. Big and dumb. https://twitt…
