an update on this infuriatingly viral toot which continues to haunt my ass. the smart TV (named herein as a "Sony Bravia") died, got repaired, then died again, within the space of 3 months. the same thing caused it to die both times: being turned off and unplugged so that I could vacuum behind the TV cabinet. understandably a TV which cannot deal with something as horrendous as "being occasionally turned off" was absolutely stupid, and I successfully yelled at the seller for a refund. the bad smart TV has been replaced with a very large (42 inch), non-smart, monitor instead which is a fucking dream and simply pipes audio and video out of my media centre without trying to sell me shampoo at the same time. I will never buy a smart TV again as long as I live. have a nice day and please stop boosting this toot

@burgerdrome@aus.social you should just totally buy what I bought, even though I hate it as much as you hate yours. Recommending it allows me to feel validation in my choices and completes me as a person.

@burgerdrome@aus.social Did you try standing at the rear of the TV to see if it behaves differently when it doesn't think you are around? 🙂 #UnsolicitedTechAdvice
