Sure, the whole world is on fire right now, but there are also little things to be upset about. ☝😉

My TV has a red LED that will blind you when the TV IS TURNED OFF

But how would you ever know the TV was turned off if it didn't have a light to tell you?

To be fair to the tv, it's not letting you know it's off, it's letting you know it's still on but in sleep mode. TV's are just giant tablets now. If it was off, you'd have to wait for it to boot into its operating system the next time you wanted to watch TV.

I have a TV with a WHITE LED that does this and we have to wait for it to boot. Luckilly, no one sleeps on the livingroom couch enough for this to matter.
