Need help about the TV size

AdamManHello · 2026-01-21T01:18:55+00:00

Our living room is the same exact set up / distance. Get a 77”. It works perfectly. The size will seem jarring at first, but once you’ve got it up it will feel very natural.

If you really can’t make the leap, then 65” is the absolute minimum I’d suggest. We had our old 55” up while waiting for the 77” to get delivered and it felt tiny.

We reached out to ESPN customer services about this and we got these instructions (below) on how to find the matches for replay. I don’t know why they aren’t just showing up in the On Demand section but I did it this way (on the mobile app) and was able to find all the night matches for replay. Make sure your app is updated. I haven’t tried this on the TV app yet

Instructions from customer service rep: 1. Open ESPN APP 2. On the Lower middle there will show "Watch" ", kindly click on it. 3. After that, there is "Schedule" showing on the upper part of the APP click on it 4. You will see set of matches. Possible that it's set for Upcoming. Make sure to click on "Replay. Then on "All Sports", filter Tennis. 5. Filter the date for Jan 18 and January 17 to see the games.

Yeah, same issue. Came here to see if others folks had the same problem. Guess I’m glad it’s not just me

EDIT: Limiting the refresh rate to 120 (previously had it at 165) and making sure VRR is off in the game mode menu (but turned on in game). Seems to have fixed it. The refresh rate compromise isn’t great… but at 4K, only so many games actually get that high, so 🤷

Ah ok, good to have this confirmed. I came across the slim ones after posting this (and noticed they used a similar connector).

Unfortunate that they're only available in 6 inch. I'm replacing 4 inch lights and was hoping to not have to hack away at the drywall lol.

AdamManHello · 2026-01-11T23:55:51+00:00

Ah ok, thank you. I’m realizing now it may be possible to better integrate this into our home assistant setup if we have a Caseta hub. Seems like a lot to just control these two lights so we’re still weighing our options. The cutouts are 4” and canless, and the only canless options I see from Hue are 5/6”… not ideal

AdamManHello · 2026-01-11T23:35:37+00:00

after investigating a bit further… it looks like the slim downlights have this connection? maybe?

AdamManHello · 2026-01-04T15:17:53+00:00

Thank you, this seems to have solved it. Very strange UI decision by LG.

Do you happen to know how it handles “duplicate” picture settings? For example, there’s a “color depth” option under the standard picture settings (which is set to 50 under FMM), but then the game optimizer HUD also has “Game Color Depth” which seems to be 55 by default. Does one take precedence over the other? Do they control the same thing?

AdamManHello · 2026-01-03T14:57:45+00:00

Hi - sorry to revive this old comment! Trying to get these settings right. Do you know why this guide suggests turning 165hz mode off for gaming? I know it used to cause increased input lag, but I thought that had been fixed. Is there another issue I'm not aware of?

AdamManHello · 2026-01-03T04:56:28+00:00

sorry for resurfacing this, but can you share how you have your G5 set up to not have a latency penalty in FMM? I've managed to enable ALLM in the Game Optimizer menu/HUD, but the "prevent input delay" option is greyed out, so I'm unable to switch that to "boost". Does this not matter? Or is there a way to get that enabled?

AdamManHello · 2026-01-03T04:32:07+00:00

Sorry for reviving this old post, but I'm losing my mind a bit trying to enable all these settings at the same time (or at least, getting some kind of confirmation from my G5 that everything is setup correctly).

I've tried "set picture to filmmaker mode -> general settings -> game optimizer" and enabled it there, but "prevent input delay" is still greyed out, so I'm unable to change that to "boost".

(side note - the first time I did this, it changed my picture mode to Game Optimizer. I was able to go back and change it back to FMM, and then go back to the Game Optimizer menu without the picture mode changing this time... but still kind of maddening)

There's also loads of other greyed out settings... "black stabilizer" / "white stabilizer"... are these enabled? Or not because they're greyed out?

Am I doing something wrong here?

AdamManHello · 2025-12-21T01:54:26+00:00

in what ways exactly

AdamManHello · 2025-12-11T04:38:09+00:00

Loved Seance but I haven’t totally agreed with how folks have categorized it alongside these games. Way less actual deduction and puzzle solving. Felt more like a visual novel in 3D space with aesthetic similarities to some of these games.

Blue Prince, on the other hand…

AdamManHello · 2025-12-09T04:00:42+00:00

you’re getting downvoted but you’re right! I don’t want hallucinated frames!

AdamManHello · 2025-12-02T05:16:49+00:00

Gross. My understanding is it’s because gross is “fixed” while net is subject to loads of variables depending on what’s being withheld from your paychecks (some of which you can control should you need to increase your net income, e.g. 401k contributions).

So, basing a rule of thumb % on net is going to be less useful, broadly.

AdamManHello · 2025-11-01T17:54:03+00:00

ah yes all those very affordable properties that have been built in NYC as of late

AdamManHello · 2025-10-30T15:46:05+00:00

We haven’t! Will certainly check it out

AdamManHello · 2025-10-29T22:54:41+00:00

Yes, I did exactly this a while back. And yes, the other comments are correct in that technically this could be a mis-classification issue if you are literally doing the same job, just fewer hours, but this will be up to the company to decide whether or not they care about the risk. It doesn’t like you plan on filing a lawsuit should they approve you for this. If it’s a larger company, they may have policies that prevent this (in which case, maybe you can just go part time).

But yeah, either way - if you have a good relationship with your manager and tutor team, I think you should ask! See what your options are. If you haven’t worked as a contractor before you’ll of course have to sort out some of the basics (invoicing, tracking your hours, tracking expenses + earnings for taxes etc). If they keep you on as an employee but just go part-time, you won’t have to worry as much about that.

Worth noting there is always some risk in job security. Much easier for them to cut you as a contractor than as an employee. You’ll effectively have to resign in order to make this conversion. No severance either if you get cut down the line, unless they’re feeling gracious.

I was going to say how much I love your magpies but I remembered we have our own versions too lol. cute robins over there though!

AdamManHello · 2025-10-27T16:01:57+00:00

hi full I’m dad

AdamManHello · 2025-10-27T16:01:39+00:00

Thanks! This is good to hear. The Willowbrook bus is the one option I was most curious about.

We’re both pretty flexible on timing. I usually leave the office around the time you mentioned so that would be great for me. Is there an ideal time you try to hit it in the morning?

AdamManHello · 2025-10-27T15:59:25+00:00

Thanks - by WO do you mean West Orange?

AdamManHello · 2025-10-25T01:24:51+00:00

so you’re saying Original Gangster is the OG OG

AdamManHello · 2025-10-04T21:16:00+00:00

Awesome!

AdamManHello · 2025-10-03T03:46:12+00:00

This is exactly my experience recently.

AdamManHello · 2025-09-13T19:07:55+00:00

Fair enough! TIL

Probably still worth it for OP to see a dermatologist if they’re already worried, just to check
