Tbh, during a closet clean-out, I realized my smart TV was a security risk.

Yep, same thing hit me last year. My old smart TV started showing me super targeted ads for stuff I'd only talked about near it, which was a huge wake-up call lol. I ended up just unplugging it from the wifi entirely and got a cheap streaming stick instead, way less creepy. It's wild how much those things just silently collect.

My deep-sky shots keep ending up fuzzy and I don't know why

Yeah, been there too many times. I once shot for three hours before realizing my polar alignment was so bad the stars looked like little comets in every single frame. Had to throw out the whole night's work because I didn't check a single sub.

Showerthought: My car's alignment issue reminded me of a pesky elevator leveling problem.

Honestly I used to just blame the elevator mechanics every time. But watching my own wooden door frames twist over a few seasons, or how driveway cracks slowly misalign a parked car's wheels, changed my mind. Now I'm wondering if the floor itself is slowly tilting under the elevator, maybe from soil shift or just the building settling weird. Could be fighting a losing battle just adjusting the lift if what it sits on is moving. Idk, maybe it's both things working against each other.
