For those of you with a living room or multiple rooms; do you have a TV in your bedroom? Why or why not? - Lemmy.zip

I haven’t had a TV in my bedroom in over 20 years. I had an ex who always wanted it on all the time, even to sleep to, and it drove me crazy.

I have one in my bedroom from my ex: she used to goto sleep listening to the news.

It was never able to pick up broadcast tv and I got rid of cable years ago, but it has an ancient ChromeCast that works fine.

… amusing story about that: the other day I wanted to watch at movie on my tablet but accidentally hit to broadcast. The tv turned on for the first time in years, but you can’t turn it off that way, I have no idea where the remote is, and a software update years ago broke integration with my home automation. I was trying to sleep and there was no way to turn this thing off - I had to get up, move a dresser and unplug it. Annoying as heck

It would definitely still have some sort of physical buttons somewhere. We haven’t lost that saving grace yet.
Yeah, but tracing my hands around the edges of the tv in the dark trying to find that power button just got my hand dusty, so I also had to go wash up
