@MartinSLewis Consideration for others sadly lacking these days. I’m with you, I should not have to be subjected to other people’s taste in music or program in a public space.

@tes My school were great when my brother tried to take his life. Time off and HoD even stood in for me at parents evening. Compassionate leave. There are good schools and leaders out there. Maintained school, not an academy, probably says it all.

A guy bought an Apple TV 4K for $179. He uses it to open Netflix, press play, and fall asleep on the couch.

Same routine every night. Same 3 apps. Same uncalibrated picture. Same remote he hates. Same "I can't hear the dialogue" complaint every movie.

His friend, a home theater installer who's calibrated over 2,000 living rooms and has spent 11 years turning average TVs into cinematic experiences, came over for a movie night, looked at the screen for 10 seconds, and picked up the remote.

"You bought a $179 home theater computer and you're using it as a $30 Roku. You've never calibrated the picture using the iPhone tool Apple built specifically for your TV. You've never turned on Spatial Audio, which turns your AirPods into a surround-sound system. You've never connected it to your smart home which it's already controlling as a hub, silently, 24/7, without you knowing. You've never used your iPhone as a keyboard instead of pecking letters one at a time with the remote. And you've been watching every movie with dialogue you can't hear and explosions that shake the walls because you've never toggled one audio setting that fixes it in 3 seconds."

He changed 9 things in 15 minutes.

The picture looked like a different television. The dialogue became clear without touching the volume. The AirPods became a private surround-sound cinema. The remote stopped being the enemy. And the Apple TV started doing things he didn't know a streaming box could do.

"Apple TV isn't a streaming stick. It's a home theater processor, a smart home hub, a gaming console, a FaceTime screen, and a private cinema system. Apple packed all of it into a $179 box and marketed it as 'the best way to watch Apple TV+.' Most people heard 'streaming box' and never opened Settings."

Here are the 9 things he changed 🧵

My brother posts this every year in the family chat on the 4th. Still hilarious.

@_MissieBee Each stage is better than the last… in different ways! Enjoy them all.
Teach them independence (even though it takes longer than doing things for them), let go of the reigns slowly but surely and you will end up with beautiful individuals who are perfectly imperfect. 💕

@avalon_tears @AWolniakow38451 @dunyasalbilim It’s the angle you would turn through to be able to “walk” from one side down the next side.

@GoldenGraduate @RogersHistory “On” supply.

[MjC @4Meglet]

@GoldenGraduate @RogersHistory I was in supply and was physically lifted up by a student so that they could leave the room. I had called for help earlier and nobody came. Double lesson.

[MjC @4Meglet]

@dnleslie Yes, would be so good to get away from the corporate bullshit imposed on us and allow each lesson to be individual.
This is how it was done when I first started teaching. Had a career break while my children were small and when I came back the landscape had changed completely,
