    80% off Lego Millennium Falcon

    I thought about that but then I wondered what kind of recourse one might have if nothing ever shows up. At least with a credit card I know I can call and talk to a person. Does that same apply for the prepaid cards since they're visa/master card or w.e

    Netflix May Be Losing $192M per Month from Piracy, Cord Cutting Study Claims

    I think theres a limit to the number of apps that can be signed in at one time. Sooo yea, kind of an anti-piracy measure but its not like they are targeting you or anything.

    Netflix May Be Losing $192M per Month from Piracy, Cord Cutting Study Claims

    They aren't "losing" money. They are missing out on potential money. Bit of a difference there.

    A "Legend" Reborn: Logitech Brings Back the MX518 Gaming Mouse

    OMG yes! That was my first "gaming peripheral way back in 2006. Looking back , the G7 was so ahead of its time. Wireless with two batteries that could be swapped in less than 3 seconds. That thing surviced SOOO many mouse clicks back in Vanilla Wow and the Counter Strike Source glory days...

    An Official Blizzard Entertainment World of Warcraft blade server

    Man I'm really kicking myself for not pulling the final trigger on one of these back when they were originally up for auction from Blizzard. From what I recall there was only a minute or two left on the auction and I had gotten outbid a few times then the price went to a petty 250 or so and I...

    Windows as a Service Is Failing

    My major issue with windows 10 right now is just overall inconsistencies with behavior. I have literally had 5 of the same exact machine freshly imaged with the same exact image and all 5 have had different and odd behaviors. Issues like the start menu being completely blank for new users...

    OnePlus 6T

    That battery is what made the decision for me. I don't need 128gb of storage, I've managed just fine the past 3 years with 16GB, I dont care to use a finger print sensor regardless of where its located, So my plan was to wait until the new phone was announced and hope to get discount pricing...

    Warcraft III Is Being Remastered, Coming Next Year

    WC3 is still very playable. I found it to age rather well. So I'm a little disappointed they didn't re-release WC1 and 2 in t his remastered format.

    Microsoft Windows 10 Pro OEM CD-KEY GLOBAL $15.30 (Save 69%) @scdkey

    I'm not sure if its proven or if it carried forward but I always felt like un-activated windows 7 installs ran like hot garbage if left un-activated for over a month or so. Once activated all "issues" seemed resolved.

    Microsoft Windows 10 Pro OEM CD-KEY GLOBAL $15.30 (Save 69%) @scdkey

    Honestly I feel l ike MS is making more money off of the BS they baked into the OS that they're turning a blind eye to keys like this. Which works out for me cuz I can block most of what they do.

    Corsair Void Pro Headset Sale at Newegg and Amazon

    0.o tempting. I originally had a Logtech G35 headset and loved them. When it finally came time to replace them, I found myself diving into the headphone rabbit hole. The overwhelming general consensus was that any headphones plastered with the label "gaming" were trash and even the cheapest...

    Diablo III Eternal Collection Is Coming to the Nintendo Switch

    Eh. I was one of the ones super pumped for the release. i pre-ordered the collectors edition and everything. The beta was solid but then it came to launch day and past the first level you got with the beta, it was um, lackluster. I don't recall exactly what it was, loot system maybe...

    James Gunn Fired from “Guardians of the Galaxy” Franchise over Offensive Tweets

    What, people cant change if they're adults? Not to say hes really changed but out of the few tweets I saw the only one really suspect to me was the one about kids touching his special place. On the surface without any context, that one is umm like wtf. Honestly, this seems like a whole lot...

    Senate Wants Emergency Alerts to go Out Through Netflix, Spotify, etc.

    Sounds like old ppl not understanding apps. Netflix and Spotify play on devices. The device is what should be the target.

    Logitech G-Pro Mouse $29

    Sadly no. Don't get me wrong, the G Pro has a great sensor, the weight is on point, the quality is solid enough in the short time I've had it and the clicks feel great but its a very different shape from the G5 (much flatter), has fewer buttons(6 vs 9) and feels a little less heavy duty(like...

    Tabletop Tablets Are Putting Waiters’ Jobs at Risk

    My problem with tipping is the generally agree'd upon % for just doing your job keeps going up while service keeps getting shittier.

    Warm...Dell 27" S2716DG 2k 144hz GSync for $399

    Not a bad price. Right before Christmas BestBuy had these for something like 350. I picked one up and love it. Honestly it was my second attempt at the monitor. The first was an A04 revision and the colors out of the box were blah and the reported color banding was really really bad. I...

    Lenovo Recalls Certain ThinkPad X1 Carbon Laptops over Fire Risk

    Yea the Gen 2's were horrible. They promptly undid all of the stupid stuff they implemented on the Gen 2 Carbons when they released the Gen 3. I haven't had my hands on anything after gen 3 due to in-house switching to HP(less than thrilled) but from what I've seen, they've been pretty solid.

    HOT - Geezer Mechanical Blue Switch RGB Keyboard $29.51 Shipped (Amazon)!

    Noted, but to be fair they are being marketed very similarly to MX Cherry switches, almost deceptively. I dont think anyone else markets their switches as blue/red/brown.

    HOT - Geezer Mechanical Blue Switch RGB Keyboard $29.51 Shipped (Amazon)!

    Reading is fundamental. Thats a pretty damn good price for an MX Cherry Mechanical keyboard. I cant decide if I need it or just want it as a backup on the shelf. I have a corsair k75 or something at home and a monoprice at work. Both with MX Cherry Reds so no extra click which I think I...

    Essential Phone $399.00 with 360 camera at Amazon.

    aaaa I've read that the hardware is fine, its the camera software. Apparently if you take the time to sideload/hack in the google playstore camera app, its a huge improvement. So perhaps with all the software updates they've already released, it will eventually be fine without needing to...

    “Gamers Aren’t Overcharged; They’re Undercharged,” Says Wall Street Analyst

    Need to fix the monopolies the ISP's have on various regions before capitalism in that sense will work. The reason the mobile market is so competitive is because you can literally choose who to have service with. Much of the US is limited to 1 ISP that isn't DSL.

    Dell 27" 144hz GSync, 1440p monitor - $349 @ Bestbuy

    I gotta say, I'm 99% sure I'm keeping mine. I do have till January to return it thanks to best buys generous holiday return policy, but I think I'm keeping it due to a comparison I did with another Dell monitor that was an IPS panel. I snagged a Dell U2717D from amazon for a crazy low price...

    Dell 27" 144hz GSync, 1440p monitor - $349 @ Bestbuy

    That's really hard to say. Each revision of the monitor (currently 7) behaves a little differently and can look a little different. Not to mention no one panel is the exact same so thats another variable. For me, to get pretty vibrant colors on my A07 revision all I did was turn up the...

    Dell 27" 144hz GSync, 1440p monitor - $349 @ Bestbuy

    In game you probably wont notice it a whole lot as things are fast paced. I didn't see any sign of it in Diablo 3 which is good. I however watch a lot of Netflix at my desk. I've also been forcing myself to use more windows 10 apps and have been pleased with the Netflix app, however banding...
