    Samsung QLED TVs

    The TV we had before that was a Mitsubishi DLP that went through 3 bulbs in 7.5 years. We replaced it because the light engine was going out.

    Samsung QLED TVs

    I just purchased a Samsung Q60 this past weekend. So far we like it! It’s a huge upgrade from the LG we had before that lasted 5.5 years. Sent from my iPhone using the SatelliteGuys app!

    TCL Teams Up with Best Buy to Deliver Most Advanced Roku TV to Date – The All-New Premium 8-Series

    I had considered TCL since it has Roku built in but wasn’t sure if it’s long term reliability since I have never heard of them.

    Who Else is Holding Off on Purchasing a 4K UHD Set...

    Nope, LCD. Anytime we paused anything or let it sit on the Roku home screen you’d see an after image after changing screens. It would go away after 5-10 seconds but it was getting more prominent and not taking as long to leave an image. I took advantage of the Best Buy early Black Friday event...

    Who Else is Holding Off on Purchasing a 4K UHD Set...

    Our 55” LG 4K tv has been showing burn in whenever something stationary sits on the screen for a while. We really see it when pausing something or if the Roku home screen sits for a while. It eventually goes away but it has been getting worse over the last several months. Our TV is 5 1/2...

    News from Apple this week

    Just like last year I am good with my IPhone 8 Plus. It gets paid off this week. [emoji4]. I would rather have TouchID and there’s nothing I do that needs a newer phone. I’m going to pay off my daughter’s iPhone 7 this week as well (got a deal with Verizon on it earlier this year) and my...

    Tripped into the dark side...Mac-Help

    They have a $399 MacBook Pro from 2012 that will support MacOS 10.15 when it releases next month.

    Tripped into the dark side...Mac-Help

    Depending on the model of MacBook you can self upgrade the memory on it and save the overpriced option from Apple. I may look at a used MacBook if I can find a way to replace the battery.

    Tripped into the dark side...Mac-Help

    Love our iMac at home. I’d much rather use it than my work laptop that’s running Windows 10.

    Dumb robocopy problem

    Instead of robocopy can you use PowerShell? Copy-Item is the command and it would look like this: Copy-Item -Path “f:\My Old Directory\*” -Destination “e:\My New Directory” -Recurse This will copy all files and subdirectories from your original location into the new location and keeps the...

    No Windows 7 support in 2020.

    This is one of the reasons why I’m glad we run a Mac for our home computer. I have to use a Windows 10 laptop for work and it sucks with the constant reboots to get Win10 to see my Ethernet connection on the USB-C dock whenever I have to take the laptop off the dock and connect back later...

    iPad Deals

    I just purchased two 6th gen iPads that Best Buy had on sale for their anniversary sale. Both are 128GB capacity and were $299 each. They are replacing both the iPads the kids use. My daughter has my old Air 2 WiFi plus cellular that has one crack on the screen and won’t hold a charge and my...

    Just Canceled

    I did this subscription over their chat instead of the phone. Was done in about 5 minutes and the rep automatically set it up as an invoice since I don’t have a credit card on file. I’d do the streaming in my car instead but I don’t like using our data more than I need to since we share 16GB...

    Credit Report Freezing

    I had to set up a pin for all three bureaus when I froze mine.

    Just Canceled

    We reupped our subscription in our Acadia before our road trip earlier this month taking advantage of their $5 for 6 months deal. I just did the same thing with my new aftermarket radio in my Civic.

    Credit Report Freezing

    My wife and I just froze all three of our credit reports due in part to the Capital One breach. Say in the future I need to temporarily unfreeze one or more bureaus, how easy would it be and does it take long if we are looking to apply for credit somewhere? We are also looking to get LastPass...

    No Windows 7 support in 2020.

    No Google OS for me. [emoji4] My reasoning for a MacBook is the quality of the hardware and software. My Dell Precision laptop has been less reliable than our Mac at home. I’m also not a big fan of Windows 10 either.

    New iPad Pros

    My iPhone 8 Plus is now on the same version as everyone else now since we had a special version. My wife’s friend couldn’t upgrade her 8 to the XS due to the version being “newer”. Now she can since the new update is out.

    No Windows 7 support in 2020.

    A few of the others in IT including two of my coworkers use a MacBook Pro for their jobs and I asked if I could get one but my boss told me they were trying to avoid ordering them. I’d much rather use a Mac for my work machine, especially since I script most of my projects now.

    No Windows 7 support in 2020.

    My work laptop is Windows 10. It’s the only Windows machine in our house as I loathe Microsoft. I miss the days of 3.1 and NT and even DOS. Our home computer is an iMac. I also run an Ubuntu VM.

    Fox Regional Sports Networks Block DISH and Sling TV Customers

    Between stuff like this and Directv’s issue with channels like CBS I am so glad we stream our TV. Never once have I seen an issue with PlayStation Vue.

    iPhone broken screen

    This gives me flashbacks to when my wife and I each had the iPhone 6s Plus and during our Spring Break cruise in 2017 they both took an ocean bath as we didn’t expect our shore excursion boat to drop us off in shoulder deep water, and our phones were in our backpack. We only had 5 payments left...

    Will you buy an Apple Watch?

    Weird. I did another soft reset of my watch and now the heart rate monitor is working.

    Will you buy an Apple Watch?

    Anyone else seeing issues with the heart rate monitor since 5.2.1 came out? Mine either won’t show the last reading/update the reading, or says tap to measure.
