I'm curious if anyone would vouch for a TV manufacturer? Are there any good dumb TVs anymore? I have a Samsung smart TV and it is an absolute pain in the ass to use the remote UI. I have resorted to running KODI on a Linux box instead.

Fuckin ASRock, my childhoods nightmares.

Best friend and I got 2 ASRock boards in highschool, both failed for no reason within 10 months and then months of sending it back and forth multiple times for repair.

Never buying anything ASRock since.

I've had two boards from them and both have worked without any issues and my last one was in service for 10 years.
