Induction stoves are fine! They're safe, efficient, cheaper to operate (in europe at least) and allow for precise control of their output!

Some time ago I tried to ask for advice related to my LCD TV. Then I found the "home theatre community" absolutely loathes my model. It's a fine TV that I got at a good discount, but apparently the only advice I'm allowed to get is "nobody should buy that model, so buy a new one".

As to TVs I get it - for some people it's a major purchase and they want to feel they made the right choice (I did this with a Plasma years ago) - and they feel they have to "defend" that choice - especially if they "came" to it after another model.

But there's another valid choice - this TV does what I want and is cheap enough that I'm not going to bother investigating further, and if I have to replace it in X years I won't mind much.
