I’m mostly sailing the high seas, using the tv as a giant monitor for the always-on laptop connected to it. I’m afraid of the 1984-esque “You must connect to the internet to continue using this TV” that might come after some time.

My LG TV (not connected to the internet) lets you disable all startup icons and sounds. It goes from off to on in about 2 seconds and goes straight to the last used input. I think I’ve seen the home screen once in the 8 months that I’ve had it.
