It was a Q90T bought in October of 2020. I also remembered another issue, after I replaced the TV with an LG, I started using it with a gaming laptop so my friend and I could play games on PC together. But we had nights were we spent an whole hour trying to get the TV to recognize the Laptop’s output. Sometimes it’d work, other nights it would refuse, and it got worse over time. I hate that TV with a fiery passion, it cost so much money and it was not worth it, not even close. The prior TV I had was a Sony top of the the line in 2007, and it was immaculate, lasted until 2020 when I replaced it.

I’ll never buy another Samsung TV. I bought a top of the line LCD/LED TV in late 2020 and it had so many weird issues:

It had frame rate issues with some streaming devices. It was widely reported as an issue in the Samsung forums, but it was never fixed.

The interface wasn’t user friendly, taking many many more button presses to switch Inputs than any other TV I’ve had.

The grid of LEDs that were supposed to turn on and off to help make dark spots darker ended up being distracting, you could clearly see when one or two of the LEDs turned on, causing an area to get highlighted by comparison.

Nope, never again, I bought an nice LG OLED and it’s great, build quality, UI, responsiveness, picture quality.

Being born in the 80s, I was told I was born in the nineteen hundreds. It didn’t feel great.

The whole article is full of gross stuff if true. This part is ridiculous:

A 2022 story reported that a flight attendant on Musk’s private jet said he exposed himself and offered “to buy her a horse in exchange for an erotic massage,”

Elon is such a weirdo.

I noticed this bullshit a few days ago on my Win 11 desktop! I found if you go check the settings of the start bar, you can hide the copilot icon in the lower right, and then there’s a check box to enable the lower right hand corner to work as show desktop again. The functionality can be restore to exactly as it was, but what the hell were they thinking.

Enshitification, plain and simple.

There’s a sweet misconception being cleared up, that’s the stuff, thank you stranger!

Meee tooo, hard disappoint. I was thrilled there were a whopping 10 misconceptions about the extinct animal!

I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

My Opera GX is doing that, persisted through clearing cache, and rebooting. Now I’m just using Edge for Lemmy.

I can’t disagree with the point of the video, social media sites/apps are really great, until they aren’t. It seems like the reasons for “until they aren’t” are getting more severe and happen faster, largely propelled by the companies running them getting greedy and shitty.

OP’s claims being verifiable or not, can we all agree that Meta’s interests aren’t benevolent toward competing competitors and their technology? The fact that is even a hint of a reason that admins of lemmy.world had a clandestine meeting with Meta would be concerning. OP’s logic is sound, and if the lemmy.world admins didn’t meet with Meta, they could state as much and dispel the possibility. Or they could entirely lie about it if no NDA was signed, but they haven’t responded to that question which is concerning.

If the admins of lemmy.world struck a deal with meta, maybe agreed to a payment, who knows what a deal like that would look like, would you all still feel comfortable using it as your home instance?
