Creating an "Instagram Life" Living Picture Frame
You'll avoid the gotcha that killed my first three attempts: most TVs won't auto-restart after a smart plug cuts power, and their energy savers fight you. This walks through the specific LG model and settings that actually work for an automated, hands-off photo frame you won't have to babysit.
My Work, Parenting and Life Rules

You're grinding hard and probably skipping the gym — this is DROdio admitting he let a decade of startup chaos wreck his health, and now he's fixing it before it's too late.
