current TV is pretty amazing all around.

i did get a kick out of the main con in reviews is poor viewing angle but i can legit stand on the side at almost 90 degrees and still see the picture lol

think that was a false piece of info.

Reviews paid for by their comptetition? lol

Im not much of a videophile or audiophile. As long as its a clear picture, its big enough, and I can hear the sounds, Im happy. I have a 50" off brand fireTv. Ive had a ps4 and 15 games for about 3 years now and only played it maybe a total of 20 hours..

bigger is always better hence why i wanna move up to a 85 over my 75 lol

i probably put 6-8 hours of gaming in a day :wtf2:

i have a decent sound bar and subwoofer think it was like $400 when i got it. kinda want to move up to surround sound setup but havent made that jump yet.

Did my monthly shopping at the store last night. $244 later I got a 6 pound pork loin, a whole salmon, a few whole chickens, big piece of eye round, primal cut of sirloin, and 5 pounds of ground beef. Plus a bunch of other stuff.

Now I am going to try making black garlic, ferment ginger and garlic into a paste, make some pickled red onions, and see what else I can come up with.

Bigger is def not a negative. But I have a small living room and the couch is probably 8 ft away from the TV, and if I had a sound system, Id get kicked out of my apartment..lol
How the heck do you find time to put in for playing that much??
You should get a job as a video game tester. My cousing did that when PC games were huge.

Many years ago, I found a website that had audio files teaching Gaelic for free. Pretty intense with about 75 lessons. I got to the pont where I think I could have carried on a simple conversation. Unfortunatly I couldnt find anyone to practice with.. :rofl2:

my living room isnt massive and idk how far my couch is from the tv but im now curious lol

depends on what i got going on but typical day when i had to be in the office was work til 430/5 come home, eat, detail a car, then i'd be on xbox from like 9p-1a then watch youtube or movies til like 2/3 then bed.

i dont sleep so gaming has time lol

now working from home and cant sell cars currently gives me bonus game time lol

You flip cars?

waiting to see if notaries are open if we can sell a few. got a few that need detailed this week to be ready to go.

Almost finished one side of my vert. top fix. Just have to bolt down a strap behind the rear finisher. The other side is 1/4 the way done, so I SHOULD be done with this stupid project today. Between the P1606 and this current project, Ive been keeping the milage down on the Z...lol

Which mesh wifi did you go with? I bought the eero off of Amazon and it works well. It was pretty easy to set up too. :tup:

The Linksys Velop. Took longer to unpack than it did to actually set up..lol
The config on them is too basic. Im not too sure, but I need to figure out if it automatically switches betwen 2.4 and 5ghz. 2.4 is useless because Im surrounded by them.

Mine seems to automatically switch, but TBH, I couldn't tell unless I used a wifi analyzer. :icon14: It works, and keeps my fiancee from complaining that her iPhone won't get email in our bedroom. I put one node in our room. :rofl2:
Three is perfect for our 1500 sq ft house, one in the living room on top of the Google fiber box, one in the family room and one in the master bedroom.

The feature just allows you to add nodes around the coverage area to increase signal strength. Your device may then connect to multiple nodes at once to get maximum speed. They call it a mesh.
