Sky Q Standby Glitch: A Simple Fix

In the UK, thousands of Sky Q users experienced a blackout, making it impossible for them to watch TV, thanks to a major glitch with the set-top boxes. The issue, linked to power-saving Standby Mode, left many staring at blank screens during peak moments, like the Eurovision Semi-Final. Sky's support team suggested a quick fix involving power-cycling: turning off the box for 30 seconds and then back on. This method refreshes the system by clearing short-term memory. If it didn't work last night, give it another try today. Ah, the delightful charm of modern technology—constantly needing a reboot like a brain after too much caffeine!
