I too am in the market for a new tv. I’ve had my 60 inch plasma tv from Samsung for going on 12 years. I dropped a pretty penny on it from Best Buy at the time and haven’t had any problems with it at all for over a decade!

Only in the last year or so I’ve started having issues with turning it on if it was just turned off. Like it’s plasma so I’ve always been super careful of burn in of images. So I press pause on whatever I’m watching on the Roku streamer connected by HDMI. Then I turn off the tv itself. If say I’m running to the bathroom, when I get back and attempt to turn on the tv it’ll make the red power light blink randomly several times over and over… but it won’t initiate the start up of the screen…

I’ve tried lots of things… unplugged the tv and waited about 10-15 seconds and plugged it back in then pressed the power on the remote and it’ll usually come back on with the volume all the way back to “1” which stinks… but it still “works”…

I’m willing to pay a good amount for a plasma adjacent/similar tv just because of the luck I’ve had with this current tv. It makes more sense to me to invest in a really great tv now, as opposed to replacing several less great tv’s when they inevitably break down…

I’ve been looking around, and obviously they’ve stopped producing Plasma tvs now… so I’m still searching for a plasma like tv that I want…

I dance like nobody is watching! All the time! My kids laugh and think I’m so weird. Who cares when I’m having fun! Admittedly at the expense of embarrassing them… lol… 😉

I wanna dance with somebody…

Don’t feel bad, I was clueless as well.

“The US is a wonderful place to live, unless you’re a …nice person”.

Holy shit! That last clip with the motorcycle and the rebar? Gawd dayum… that was too Fucking close…

I’ve not seen Australian dash cam videos before… yikes! Reminds me of a Guns and Roses’ song… “welcome to the Jungle” but instead say… welcome to the Outback …

I DO love watching dumbass drivers on video though… makes me chuckle…

Thank you for sharing!

Definitely malicious compliance… lol

I actually didn’t know Spotify HAD white noise to stream! Well, I’ve had a noise machine for almost 20 years from “Timex”. Bought it at Radio Shack at the mall… lol… their ad “Takes a lickin and keeps on tickin’”… apparently spot on… I’ve moved, dropped, smacked and banged into that alarm/CD player/radio/noise machine combo so many times these last 20 something years… still works!

My iPhone is old, and I don’t have the newest iOS update. (Currently I don’t have enough storage space on my phone and can’t part with my pics)…Artemis is working great for me. It just released publicly in Beta. And has plans to include Lemmy very soon.

I really enjoyed the Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul communities on Re**it and some other TV series subs. I’m not sure if they’re on Lemmy or not… but now that you bring it up, I haven’t even looked!

Awww. Such a good actor! Loved to Hate his character Hector on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul! 🥺
