My engineer had me buy 43" TVs instead of monitors for the lab. I bought Samsungs and they’re just annoying. With only one thing plugged into them and no internet connection at all, they still require you to select “PC” to see anything.
I mean, yeah, they were less than half the price of 43" Dells, but still.
What’s even more fun is I’m 1300 miles from the office working on a site. I forgot to ship the remote. So every day I plug in the laptop, rouse it from sleep, and then have a fun little adventure getting the TV to act as a second monitor using the single hidden little button under the logo.
This TV definitely qualifies for /c/assholedesign.

Are they using VGA? I use a Samsung TV for a monitor and don’t have to do this, but I’m using HDMI.
Nope, HDMI.

I’d have returned those TV’s and bought different ones. The only thing those basterds understand is lost revenue.
