Getting rid of my tv was the best thing I did for myself. That’s the future. Removing and reducing all screen time.

I love that for you

For me, the opposite was true. Ever since I injured my knees last year, putting a 75 inch TV in my bedroom has improved my quality of life.

I know people will probably say "oh just fix your knees" and think that sentiment is helping, but I tend to not take my medical advice from technology communities and instead listen to doctors. It makes me sound rude, but it's true that medical advice should be given by medical professionals for the best outcome possible.

I really do love having a nice big TV in my bedroom.

Trust me this is not a technology community. If anything this is an anti-technology company more so than any other community that I've ever been a part of.

We didnt have one for a long time.

Then we got one for free. So we use it for movies and some gaming together, but we dont have any streaming subscriptions.

I agree it'd be better to not have. But im into old console gaming so I like to have a couple tvs.

Its good to balance it with reading and exercising of course! But movie nights are fun.
