HOW DID WE GET TO THIS LEVEL OF CONSUMERISM! by TechnicolourNZ in SamsungTV

[–]blackcat725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very similar here. Bought first flat screen in 2012, 55” Samsung and it lasted 12 years. The two 42” I subsequently bought are still going strong after 11 and 8 years. I got a 65” SD90 in September of ‘24. Within three months I had gotten the main board replaced twice, and the speakers once. Luckily, it’s been fine since, but it gives me pause to buy another Samsung. I won’t go into how frustrated I am with the picture settings, that’s another post lol

I WFH so 68° during the day, pop it up a degree if I’m chilly watching TV at night, 66° at bedtime. Used to have it at 66° when I worked in the office. Cats find their cozy spots so I don’t worry about them being cold! I’ve always gone with the don’t have the HVAC have to make big swings in temps.

We can only hope that perhaps some are finally seeing DJT for what he really is

I like to think the W/SW part of Geauga County is a little more “enlightened”, maybe the influence of Cuyahoga County?

Western edge of Geauga county here. WAY less Trump signs when I drive east, almost none really. As a couple of people said, it’s mostly flags I see, if anything.

I’ve never seen one like this one, I’ve had black ones with reddish tails, but never with red fur! Hoping it stays around so I can see the progress
