A guy bought a $1,500 Samsung TV 3 years ago.
He watched Netflix. He watched YouTube. He thought the picture looked fine. He assumed that's just what a TV looks like.
His friend, a home theater installer who calibrates TVs for a living, walked into his apartment and looked at the screen for 5 seconds.
"You're watching everything in demo mode. The motion smoothing is on. The eco dimmer is cutting your brightness by 40%. Your TV is taking a screenshot of your screen every 30 seconds and selling your viewing data to advertisers. And you're watching a $1,500 panel in the same picture mode Best Buy uses under fluorescent lights to make TVs pop on a showroom wall."
He changed 9 settings in 12 minutes.
The picture looked like a different television. The soap opera effect disappeared. The colors became natural. The TV stopped spying on him.
Here's every setting he changed 🧵
@ZacksJerryRig@Tesla@ZacksJerryRig I hope these and the Trump posts are genuine and not just to gain followers. Regardless tech info is what I signed up for and it’s not what this is anymore. Will keep watching vids but these posts are not worth a follow. Sorry Zack. Will check back in a bit.
Fam, you’ve read a lot of mock drafts these last few months. But I guarantee this is the only one written at 1 a.m. that imagines the Browns being helmed by their fictional GM from the 2014 film “Draft Day.”
Enjoy? I guess? https://t.co/yzFBDhIHbD
I can’t tell you how much you are missing out if you are not watching @HeedTheCallPod on YouTube. The acting, the drama, the visceral eye rolls at @titansfilmroom. Hit that button, and Heed the Call!
🚨🚨BREAKING: The NFL is cooperating with Federal Investigators over potential match fixing by the #Packers.
This play in particular is what is raising red flags. A total of 1.1 BILLION was on Packers Moneyline, a record amount for the NFL.
Yikes. 😬
