    Is Pier 1 seriously just overpriced furnishings? I'm not sure where Container Store falls on the price scale but their closet systems are legit for example, I have a closet system from them that stood up to get assembled/reassembled in three different apartments, and I still have the pieces but haven't bothered putting them up because I don't need the storage boost.

    Overpriced shit that you can find at the other aforementioned businesses and thrift stores.

     

    Or Amazon.

  2. NJ opening state parks was a mistake.  You can't assume people will continue practice social distancing. You have people walking in large groups without facemasks. People think the pandemic is over if you choose to do this irresponsibly. This won't flatten the curve; this will highly increase the infection rates. I will put my money on the line that the infection rates will go up again.

     

    Lovely.

    I recieved an email this afternoon stating my account was accessed from Russia from a PC running Windows 10. I don't know how to post the screenshot from my phone, but I copied the text for y'all to read below. I didn't realize I was playing in Rushn' Attack.

    So, to change our NNID password, do we have to sign into a WiiU or 3DS to do so?  I can only seem to find the Nintendo Account options from the website.

    Do not do this.  You need 2FA.  I changed my password and within 2 days my account was accessed again.

    Really depends on what you’re using this second monitor for. Didn’t seem like you needed anything special so I went for aesthetic rather than a spec sheet. It’s still a good IPS panel. 
     

    Are you using it for gaming, need a good color reproduction, viewing angles, need a second hdmi port?

     

    I’ve never used spectre, but 1ms means it’s a TN panel which doesn’t look as good as IPS, it also doesn’t have good viewing angles. 

    So if I were to replace the secondary monitor, I could just buy a new monitor and replace this current primary monitor as a secondary monitor.  So, as a primary monitor, I would ideally use this for gaming.

    This monitor is my current primary monitor.  I'm using the DVI port right now.

    I've always liked HP for my second monitor. Slim, small bezels, little footprint. I only use my second monitor for like watching twitch while I game or discord.

    Any way I can get something better or updated to current monitor standards?  60 hz and VGA seem really antiquated.

     

    Sorry if I'm being a little nitpicky.

  6. So long story short, there's an issue with the power supply for my monitor.  Basically any slight movement and the monitor loses power from the cable.  I'm okay with buying a new monitor since this monitor itself is a relic of last decade, around 2011 when I had it, unless you guys can see where I can buy a replacement power cable for cheap.

     

    Nothing special, 1080, 60hz is something I can tolerate.  It's a spare monitor, unless you want me to get a new monitor and use my asus as a secondary monitor instead. Reference to what the secondary monitor was.

     

    Edit: Okay, I should be a bit more clear.  Something that is up to date with current monitor standards for 2020ish, and definitely not something that still uses VGA.
