Why all TV hardware is awful
This is one of the —many— reasons I refuse to get a TV and stick to real displays.
Matthew Garrett: [When you connect TV to a computer] [y]our 1920x1080 TV takes a 1920x1080 signal, chops the edges off it and then stretches the rest to fit the screen because of decisions made in the 1930s. The fact is that nine of the current TVs is suitable to be used mainly with a computer and secondarily to watch “TV content”.
