Lost my TV remote control with the volume set on too high. Spent close to half an hour tearing the house to pieces looking for the remote, getting increasingly frustrated and angry.
And then I remembered that I could just walk up to the TV and press a button to turn the volume down.
Who knew. What magic.
@davidnjoku I was well into my twenties when I got my first TV with a remote. When I first moved away from home in the early nineties, my TV was a "portable" 14" CRT - it even had a carry-handle. That first apartment was about as small as the TV, so my remote control for it was pressing the channel buttons (all eight of them) on the tv front panel with my toe from the couch. If you channel-surfed too much, you'd get a cramp in your foot.
We've come far as a species 😆
