I’ve owned the TV since Dec 30 2023. It has been a great experience except for the last three or so weeks it has been randomly, at random times of the day, turning itself on.

No changes were made prior to this. Since then I’ve done a few things

- unplugged the Switch 2
- upgraded to WebOS 25
- turned off Quick Access
- Set ID to number 2

Nothing so far has worked. The above were done separately.

When it turns on it turns on to Live TV. Never the Home Screen. The TV does have a card in the CI+ slot.

I’m a bit at a loss. Remaining devices plugged in is a US. Stick, Firestick 4K and Sonos Arc soundbar.

I want to stress that I’ve made no hardware / physical changes before hand

Last night, I watched, in glee, the Seahawks absolutely dominate the 49ers at 2am. It was a joyful experience. However, all day today I realize I don't really have anyone to celebrate the win with. Are there enough of us idiots in Amsterdam (American or not, because I'm not) who want to watch the next game together?

A bit of context... I lived in Seattle for a few decades and had the opportunity to see them dominate the Denver Broncos in 2013, so there is a lifelong connection. They haven't been this good since 2014 and it puts a smile on my face.

TL;DR potential Amsterdam area Seahawks fans, should the 30 or less of us meet up next week to see the NFC conference championship, either at a

For those that don't care or have no enjoyment of American Football, no need to comment or leave behind some stupid comment. I get it. We all have our things.

So on Monday afternoon I had my last pint glass full of ice, half with Bombay and the other half fever tree. That evening I told myself I had enough and I’m quitting.

Now let’s back up a bit. I’ve been a pretty serious drinker since 22 (40 now) and in the last year had multiple stops but each time found myself restarting. The problem was the restarts were worse.

First initial stops were to reduce beer and wine. Then I got rid of wine but drank the occasional beer. The last stop that lasted more than two weeks was May of this year after receiving a verbal warning at work. However the next restart involved gin. Oh how that was a very bad idea. Now prior to this I’d drink 6 out of 7 days st

First things first, unlike families that try to game the system, we booked our flight in March and paid for seats and what not. We’re flying with two girls under 12, so we’d like to fly together. So we selected row 13CDEF on our Boston to Amsterdam flight. At the time Seatguru said it was a good row to book and off we go.

However now it appears to be the exit row on the A321Neo. Not going to work in our situation.

We called JetBlue approx 22 days before our flight and after 25 minutes of holding, spoke to a rep who essentially said that they couldn’t do anything about it. Saying that her system doesn’t say we paid for seats (🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️) and that we are trying to get moved to better seats

The night of Feb 29, I had my last drink — encouraged by me subscribing to this sub earlier last week. I’ve been drinking near consistent for 17 years, while it has gone down over the years — from entire growlers of 10% triple IPAs to two-three bottles of wine a night — lately my pattern was two-three Weiss beers and then 2-3 gin and tonics. On weekdays I’d often start after the kids are asleep and on weekends around 5p. I was absolutely using alcohol to help me fall asleep.

I completely stopped a few days ago. But the sleep, or lack of sleep is absolutely wrecking me. I’ll sleep to 15-40 minutes at a time and wake up dazed and confused, only to start the process over again. Is it ok to sw
