Dan realized that idea was too dumb even for Dan.

It was not a bad price for a 4K TV, but there's no reason to buy 4K yet.

Bah I'm shopping for a new TV these days and I'll most likely buy a 4k one. It's worth it in the long run if you get a good price.

The main problem with that order was the fact that it's a curved TV.
 
Wirecutter has a deal tracking thing.

Wirecutter and Sweet Home are amazing and make buying shit so much easier.

If you're already buying a TV, yeah, no reason not to. If it's just an impulse buy anyway, might as well wait.

And curved is hilarious and dumb. That sure was a thing that did not go as planned.
 
Does any of the consoles currently available even support 4k bluray?

I'm not sure how I could even try out the 4k stuff to see how it looks.
 
Netflix has some 4K stuff afaik.

The problem with streaming 4K is not only compression, but the speed and capacity requirements of streaming 4K are beyond the reach of a massive amount of people (Talking about the US of course. Some countries have solved this infrastructure problem).
 
What all do you own or use on a regular basis?

Right now for my daily commute I'm using the aurisonics harmony. I use either them or the ocharaku flat-4 nami at home, depending if I need isolation. Waiting on the next time massdrop still the fostex thx00 for me next set of full sized cans.
 
Apples are damn overrated. I don't get how anyone here can love apples over pears or kiwi.

Watermelon is the GOAT fruit.
 
Pineapple on Pizza is the best.

I'd much rather spend money on a G-Sync monitor than 4K, and even there I'm still hesitant and waiting for a new model every time.
 
It's good, but apple is the best pizza fruit. I also had banana or plantain or something once, that was really good too.

I can't imagine apple but I want to try banana now. But when would you put that on the pizza, like 5 minutes before you pull it out of the oven?

Apples are so basic. They are the plain oatmeal of fruits.
Watermelons, Pineapples, Oranges and Grapes are fruit god-tier.

I've been super fascinated by high-end headphones but have never taken the plunge on anything over around $120. I have a pair of ATH-M50s and a pair of Sennheiser Momentum.
 
They might not have the big marketing campaigns other AAA fruit have, but they still count!

lol, fucking indie trash.
Anyway grapes won over 100 FOTY awards and tomatos didn't even get nominated, pretty clear what everyone thinks about them.
Or at least people who aren't stuck in the retro zone.

Not sure, that's why I thought they might be plantains. They'd hold up to pizza heat better. Either way they were very thinly sliced. That's what works best for apples too in my experience. I haven't actually had pizza with chunks of apples on it, but that seems a little crazy.


Thin sliced apples plus something really salty (sausage or blue cheese have worked best for me) is the best pizza though.

You try eating some spaghetti or pizza with your grapes trash!

Eh, I'd say that you're good. At some point it's about tonality more than sheer technical performance. I think the momentums are pretty good actually, it's just that the lack of treble extension made me sell them. Plus right now I prefer in ears.

Diminishing returns for sure but I'm willing to pay the money for it.
 
Wait, when did the newest Beastcast go up? I didn't even notice it.

Also, what's a layman's explanation for what Vinny is doing wrong in Kerbal?

Please talk me out of buying a pair of Beats Pro headphones. I've come uncomfortably close a number of times to buying them.

I'm pretty sure he's been very fuel inefficient; using the wrong type of engines at the wrong time and is like, angling the ship wrong when in orbit?

Dunno, I'm a layman too and am only skimming comments.

Incredibly inefficient maneuvers. Just because you can make a maneuver work from wherever you are in the orbit, doesn't mean you should. There are ideal spots to best utilize your position and velocity to make a rendezvous.

The ship design could use some work too, but the main culprit are things like turning west, eyeballing orbital maneuvers.
