General Gaming What tv do you use for gaming?
Spork3245 replied to Remarkableriots's topic in The Spawn Point
The firmware just came out this month, IIRC. Rtings.com tested it. -
@Greatoneshereis probably one of the best posters on this forum. He came back and got driven away almost immediately - tried to explain why he left and had people trolling “that’s absolutely not what you said” and arguing with him. Some of you stating that people need to be more self-aware are the very ones who need to do so. Post like a condescending dismissive twat towards someone then wonder why there’s no discussion happening.

I’d hold off until you can go for the P-series, the M’s aren’t great, though they do support VRR. The TCL is way better than the M series except for the lack of VRR support: it’s possible that the 2021 TCL 6-series will be full HDMI 2.1 which would make it the best value alongside the Vizio P-series. Simply put: you’ll regret an M-series Vizio long-term if you could’ve waited a few weeks/months to get a MUCH better set. The 2020 M-series supports VRR, afaik. -
My favorite conversation was with someone who got angry that they should wear a mask and stated something to the effect of “oh, right! And should we wear masks when we have the flu or a cold too???”’(sarcastically) and didn’t know how to respond when I replied “yes, absolutely. People in Asian countries like Japan have done that for over a decade now and it’s reduced deaths from influenza. It’s about protecting those around you.”

@Remarkableriots https://www.bestbuy.com/site/vizio-65-class-p-series-quantum-series-led-4k-uhd-smartcast-tv/6416449.p?skuId=6416449&irclickid=R8vy4KSrOxyOWNO0MKVSfWfHUkEza0UvPzoywM0&irgwc=1&ref=198&loc=IGN &acampID=0&mpid=1442478 On sale, full HDMI 2.1 features for your PS5, better picture quality and better response time (less input lag) over the TCL 6-series that you were looking at from what I've read - the only negative is that the VRR only works up to 60hz; shouldn't really be an issue beyond that hz anyway, as the biggest benefit with VRR is making an unstable 60fps (dropping in and out of the high-40s and 50s and back to 60) appear to stay smooth - it helps with screen tearing as well when vsync isn't enable but the "smoothness" it provides is it's primary benefit, IMO. It's probably going to stay around this price through nest month. -
And that took an extreme: a loss of a loved one. Which is sad on a lot of levels. I meant have you had a mask conversation that changed an anti-maskers mind recently? Back in April/May, I changed several friends minds, including business partners, mostly by explaining how it works: the long incubation period where you can be contagious without symptoms and how the mask reduces your aerosol spread (and not that it’s primary purpose is meant to stop you from breathing in the virus). At this point in time, the people I’ve attempted to have that discussion with is like talking to a wall. Edit: what I’m stating is that, in my opinion and anecdotally from my personal experience, those who were skeptical but willing to listen have long since realized the benefit of wearing a mask. The chances of finding someone willing to listen at this juncture seems remarkably low compared to 6-months ago. Does that make the data worthless? No. I was commenting on NYT being a rag

PC Free Stadia Controller and Chromecast Ultra for YouTube Premium Subs
Spork3245 replied to Slug's topic in The Spawn Point
Got mine yesterday. The controller is way more comfortable than I thought, though, I haven’t actually played a game with it, just fiddled around with it. Chromecast is an absolute shit streaming box. WTF, why is it like this and not just a normal friggen Android box? Awful. For free, I can’t complain, but, yeesh. Anyway, time to cancel!
