Today we remember our much missed friend, the irreplaceable John Challis on his birthday
There are many many things we could say.. the easiest and most honest is.. Thank You for being you!
RIP Bonnie Tyler 😔💔🙏🏻
The iconic singer had recently fallen into a coma following a serious medical complication resulting from intestinal surgery.
With her powerful, raspy voice, she captivated the world. We say goodbye to a legend of the 80s and 90s.
A guy bought a $1,800 Samsung TV and watched it for 3 years.
Netflix. YouTube. Sports. Movies. Every night. Same screen. Same picture. He thought it looked fine. He assumed that's just what a TV looks like.
His friend, a home theater installer who calibrates 200+ TVs a year across luxury homes came over to watch a fight one Saturday night. He sat on the couch, looked at the screen for about 5 seconds, and said:
"You're in Vivid mode."
"What's Vivid mode?"
"It's the picture setting Samsung puts on every TV so it pops under the fluorescent lights at Best Buy. Maximum brightness. Oversaturated colors. Artificial sharpness cranked to 50. It's designed to catch your eye on a showroom wall next to 60 other TVs not for watching content in a living room. You've been watching a Best Buy demo reel on your couch for 3 years."
He picked up the remote and started going through Settings.
"Your skin tones are orange. Your motion smoothing is making every movie look like a soap opera. The eco mode is dimming your brightness by 40% during dark scenes. The sharpness filter is adding digital noise to every frame. Your HDMI ports are blocking HDR from your streaming stick. Your TV is taking screenshots of your screen and selling your viewing data. And Bixby has been listening through the remote's microphone since the day you plugged this in."
He changed 9 settings in 11 minutes.
The guy looked at the screen and said "did you buy me a new TV while I wasn't looking?"
His friend said: "Same TV. Same panel. Same $1,800 you spent 3 years ago. Samsung builds incredible displays and then ships them with settings designed for a retail store, not your living room. Nobody tells you to change them because Samsung makes money from the defaults you leave untouched."
Here's every setting he changed 🧵
The Secret Traitor, the Traitor on Traitor, the crap detective, the Hugo speech, the stolen shield, the screaming barrister, the church confessional, the cat among chickens, the FBI training and Stephen’s outfits, WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO DESERVE SUCH A GIFT OF A SHOW! #TheTraitorsUK
