  1. That is a great price, but the difference from the 2017 to 2018 models isn’t that significant. You may be able to find a B7A for 1800ish. However, if you don’t want to wait and be extra few hundred isn’t a big deal, get on it!!
  2. What in the actual fuck? How is this good for consumers? Maybe im missing something... but are there states where amazon doesn’t charge sales tax? Here in NY we’ve been paying sales tax for goods purchased through amazon for as long as i can remember. I’m also going to suspect that the vast majority of high population states (re: the coasts) also pay the sales tax. And these states are also probably vast the majority of all sales (by a large margin). Now, there is zero incentive for me to purchase an item from a 3rd party vendor on amazon. Their prices were usually slightly higher to begin with, but a lot of time if the item is expensive enough, they can be cheaper due to not having to pay the sales tax. Allowing these smaller mom and pop shops able to compete with amazon. That’s 100% out the window now. It was always a risk buying 3rd party due to warranty issues, etc. now I’ll just buy from amazon direct. No need to even bother check the other vendors. Good job trump!
  3. used it last night for Hereditary. Its perfect for movies you dont need to see opening weekend. enjoy it while you can.
  4. Ready Player One (actually listening on audible. I heart wil wheaton ) Star Wars: A New Dawn (boring AF)
  5. you would think with the way GTAV is printing fucking money, they could hire a dedicated PC team to work on the port so it can release simultaneously.
  6. Agreed. Once I saw one in action I knew that I had to have one. However - if you watch a lot of sports or like to leave the news on for extended period...not the best choice
  7. I think its going to be tough to beat God of War for GOTY. Really depends on how good RDR2 is.
  8. From what I understand (unless things changed for the new 2018/19 models) that QLED has terrible input lag as well. Seems either OLED or Sony X900/930/940F series are the way to go. And TCL 6 series for people on a budget.
  9. i would argue that the vast majority of people able to hold a job (esp at the professional level) are also able to maintain a proper boundary between their private and professional lives. I just feel that no company should not have the ability to tell me what I can and cant do on my own personal time.
  10. Lots of deals on the new LG OLEDs @ 65". Ive seen that at 2400ish already from authorized reseller. If you dont watch a lot of sports or news.... its probably the best choice. Otherwise, look at the Sony 9XXf series.
  11. this is awesome...and a huge smack in the face to Sony's shitty stance on cross-platform play.
  12. why though? you're telling me if you met someone and completely hit off, instant sparks, potential love of your life.... you then have to chose between keeping your job and perusing a possible romantic interest? obviously if the relationship goes sour and it affects work, then it needs to be dealt with....but outside relationships can equally cause the same problem for someone not able to cope.
  13. i know.. just seems ridiculous that two consenting adults cant have a relationship bc they work at the same place. if they are mature and perform their jobs adequately, then there should be no issue with it.
  14. supposedly DV is better, but from what ive seen, it just looks different to me. im not really sure if i can say one looks better than the other. maybe someone with a better trained eye.
  15. just keep in mind, Xbox doesnt have dolby vision support. it will still play movies in HDR, but you lose the DV processing.
  16. why is this an issue? If both are consenting, whats the problem?
  17. LMK what happens. Ill probably be picking something up in the next week or 2.
  18. pretty sure all 1st party titles will be released on PC as well. and if you arent going to play 3rd party titles on it... then it sounds like youre better off just getting a standalone 4k UHD blu-ray player.
  19. The last game I played was Battlefield 1. Originally bought it on PC and put a few hundred hours in, but put it down before any hefty content updates. Recently picked it up for X1X for $15 bux will all the DLC. I probably have about 15hrs in and there are so many maps now I dont think Ive even seen all the new ones. Tons of new weapons and ways to earn them. New perk system and missions to unlock them. They really did a lot to this game and I love it. I wish Battlefront II got this treatment. I am excited for BF: V
  20. if you want to sell that launch unit for cheap, I may be interested!
  21. Marvel is doing like 3 movies a year...and still smashing records. I specifically stated one a year is fine. I think the issue with Solo was that it was released too close to Ep.8 and too close to Avengers. It shouldve been a Q4 release.
  22. I really can’t wrap my brain around all the complaints about the anthology movies. They are infinitely better than the latest 2 parts of the main trilogy. Rogue One was fantastic. IMO, next to the OT, it’s the next best Star Wars movie. Solo was a lot of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Why would anyone want less Star Wars? I’ll gladly go see any SW movie they throw at me. One movie a year is fine. Keep telling the stories. On the other hand, people eat the marvel movies up and i am just so sick and not excited for them anymore. It’s the same movie swapping characters. I would’ve stopped going to see these movies a while ago if it wasn’t for my kids.
  23. Can you pre-purchase tickets for upcoming movies? Like ant-man and wasp...taking my kids to see that opening day. That’s a definite pre-purchase bc every showing will be sold out all weekend. I have MoviePass for date night with my wife. It’s $13/head for a movie so if I only go once a month, it’s worth it. I still pay separately for the blockbusters i want to see opening day/weekend. So this AMC pass may be worth it (esp with the concession discount too) if i can pre-order reserved seats.
  24. My facebook feed is full of people praising Trump for reversing this law the Dems created and saving these kids lives. I really need to remove myself from FB. It’s an absolute cesspool.
