who here doesn't have a TV?
i've been tv-free for more than a decade, and i love it!
when i used to have one, it was almost an automatic response to come home and plant myself in front of it, even though there was mostly just bullshit showing.

ok, i have a computer (obviously) and can watch things on my laptop, if i want to. but, i don't have any network television access, and i really like it this way.

it has allowed me a lot more time for things like reading or doing things that seem a lot more beneficial for me than zoning out in front of a propaganda box...

it also seems that not having a tv has allowed me to see through a lot more of the bullshit and "programming".

i would assume, since this is glp, that i'm not alone. how many of you threw away your tv? and, if so, what are the positives you've encountered? negatives?

if you still have a tv (or many), i don't hold it against you.
you're free to chime in to.

cheers

As of 2008

I agree with your assessment of the situation.

i wouldn't agree. i have a great monitor specifically for photography, and calibrated monthly for true color (for printing). it has 99% adobe rgb and 100% sRGB color. i don't think you'll find a tv that beats that. and, to beat it with a professional monitor, you would need to spend quite a bit. the prices for great monitors have, however, come down immensely.

Out since 2010...

Never was much of a TV watcher anyhow. Got sick of countering the indoctrination of my children. TV shows where there were never any parents around and the kids were running everything.

I have a television, but I haven't had cable for maybe 5 years now. Possibly longer, I don't remember. I can only watch DVDs on my TV.

30 years. But the computer can be almost as bad in terms of time waste. I'm trying to cut that back and make more things with my hands.

Re: who here doesn't have a TV?
I have 3 TV's. They only play Netflix, Hulu or Prime. I more or less use them for background noise. Absolutely no mainstream broadcast shows, just stupid stuff like Rick and Morty. I do not sit and watch, just for noise.

I have an Oled but it's only used as a big ass home theater pc monitor. I haven't had tv service or even hooked up rabbit ears in almost 15 years. Don't miss it or want it. Nothing but propaganda.

Stopped watching more than 8 years ago. Memory skyrocketed after just 30 days. Also don't listen to the radio, either, as it's more of the same.
