I've read that with LCD TVs, major failures usually occur either immediately or not at all (which is why extended warranties are a waste of money). Looks like you got the crappier of the two possibilities.
mine is/was a LED though…not sure if they act the same but i have a 2 year warranty on it so all should be ok!
i'm thinking about buying something better/bigger now though...50" are good, but (as you'mericans say) "the bigger the better" right
-
I would have gone with a Sharp Aquos. They are the only manufacturer that doesn't outsource it's parts are manufactured and assembled in the state of the art, highly efficient Kameyama Plant. I have owned many LCD and now LED's from SHARP and they have never let me down.

It's still an LCD screen- LED is the type of backlight it uses. Older LCDs used fluorescent lights, but LEDs are thinner and are now standard.
Just get a plasma TV from Panasonic and never have to worry about all those complicated acronyms.

I totally agree with D666's statement. I was always a samsung guy, and my college buddy that's the General Manager talked me into a less expensive Sharp that is an incredible TV. it's 70 inches of pure bliss. If you're gonna be a bear, be a grizzly.

Migraine is arriving…....ugh

I took some Aleve as my migraines are more than likely autoimmune related (long story, awaiting diagnosis). The pain has gone but left behind a weird vision thing in my left eye.

By mistake, I allowed tapatalk to "upgrade" today. Holy crap, the new version is awful. I need to do some research and see if I can go back to the older, non-shitty version.
-
Uninstall the craptacular new version, then go here to download the classic version. You'll have to change your default Android settings to allow non-Play Store programs to install, but the whole process only took about 5 minutes for me. Totally worth it.

I sold my old Race Face Mountainbike Jacket at ebay…now the buyer claims, it's a women's jacket, because the zipper is on the left.
I sent him good arguments that prove him wrong, but from my experience with ebay and paypal I can already see how this is going to end. The seller is always wrong, no matter ho stupid the arguments are. -
The next time…I tried to be polite at first (yet not giving in a bite and baring my teeth a bit)... Curious to see how this goes on.

I had a guy who I sold a book to message me this morning moaning on about how he'd not received it, how he wanted a refund, how bad my communication had been etc…. A quick check on the tracking (which he had) revealed that it has been at his local post office for almost a week waiting for him to collect it.
My reply was less than polite, have given up on eBay etiquette.
-
Yes, I see me moving in that direction as well.
-
And he replied…last friendly answer from me...He pulled out his academic graduation. Doesn't impress me much, but tells a lot about the person. So I gave him mine as well.
