Top choice, what car? Not that crazy of a price depending on size.Some new front tyres for the car, Michelin Primacy 4+ for a "nice" price of £300 fitted [emoji22]
Replacing tyres is always painful.

Vauxhall (Opel) Grandland X
Yeah, they are more than Goodyear and Dunlop, but about the same as Continental and Pirelli.
It's what the car came with from the manufacturer, actually the discontinued Primacy 3, so just went for the newer Primacy 4+.

the LG tech that came was like “It really looks bad, but not faulty“ lol i guess its the same as saying your car is on fire but you can still drive it.

If you recall I am a fan of backlight on TV, I approve [emoji1303]Ordered a new backlight for the incoming new TV:
Any reason for the cool white 6500k? I do prefer warm white myself, the yellower the better [emoji1787

A bias light is meant to match the white point of the TV, which is 6500K / D65.
When the backlight doesn't match the white point of the TV, your eyes perceive the displayed colours differently, and so are perceptually inaccurate (this is also true if your wall paint isn't neutral).

And I bought a gen 3 Apple TV as I'm giving my friend my gen 2 to go along with the TV I sold him. Got to say, it's pretty cheap move of Apple to remove the ethernet port on the lower capacity model:

Why do you need the Ethernet though?
The Apple TV doesn’t do anything that would saturate wireless capacity.

I prefer everything in my AV setup to have a wired connection, I feel wireless is less consistent. I'm happy using wi-fi for everything else. Besides, it was something Apple always used to offer on both models - it irks when features are removed.
Well considering they removed it on MacBooks and everything else years (decades by now) ago I find it odd they kept it around this long and then with this model disparity.
Consistency is just a placebo.

Perhaps, but it removes a variable when troubleshooting. For example, if I'm downloading something on my PS5 it can affect my streaming services, in which case I can point directly to the PS5 and not wonder if wi-fi has a hand to play.
It's not my field, I'm sure you know better, but it gives me peace of mind.

Oh yeah it assumes that the wireless network is setup correctly and distributed properly, and Ethernet is a bit of an on/off switch in comparison.
A lot of it is a bit of a hangover from days gone by where WiFi was a problematic thing to get working properly but it’s not a big issue these days unless we are talking about massive installations.
Weird that the PS5 would affect your streaming services, sounds like the router isn’t doing a great job at Quality of Service load balancing. Unless you are on like a 20MBit line, which is very much doubt is even an option in Denmark.
