So much want

 

Seems like the employees at Verizon stores serve no other purpose now than to dial customer service for you.

 

That's been my experience with them since day one.

 

Just seems like it's like this more so than usual lately. I tried to call a store earlier, dialed their number. The store's number was redirected to customer service. Was on hold for 30 minutes before customer service answered, then called the store for me. Eventually went to the store. Asked the guy a couple questions. He runs into the back, then tells me I have to contact customer service.

 

WD Red, Red Pro, or Gold for NAS?

 

Was going through some old shit and found this in a box of empty CD cases. Found out there's a PS4 version. Guess it's why I was good at Guitar Hero with a regular controller.

 

I use red. Never had any major issues.

Never played that before.

 

So Cox is offering Gigablast for my area now, but it's not fiber, DOCSIS 3.1 with speeds up to 1 Gbps / 35 Mbps. I am currently on the Ultimate plan with 300 Mbps / 30 Mbps. I usually test speeds around 450 Mbps down. It would be close to $40 more a month.

If it was fiber, no brainer, anyone felt with DOCSIS 3.1 at GB speeds? Is it reliable?

 

I need new computer monitors. 3 of them exactly. I'm hoping to stay around 2-300 ea. I'm not a huge gamer but stare at the screens a lot. Two are going to the wife's work PC and one is for my new MBPro

 

Are you signed up for fry's weekly/daily deal emails? They have some good stuff in there sometimes. I managed to get my TV from them for like $200-300 off because of a daily deal.

 

If you're not gaming it doesn't really matter what you get. I wouldn't do anything generic but I always go with Asus or Acer and I've had good luck with them. I really do like ViewSonic but they seem to be overpriced lately.

 

Whoever plays rainbow six siege they just released the outbreak DLC that's only out for 1 month go download that shit

 

I haven’t played rainbow 6 in over a decade

 

I'm playing on PS4 until I upgrade my graphics card then I'll switch over to PC but it's pretty good. 5v5 or terrorist hunt and they also have the new mode outbreak out for a month, and is about zombie alien magic things idk it's weird but fun.

 

How is it going all its been a while?

 

Work work work. Started playing Far Cry 4. Decent game but I hate collecting so much shit to build shit to collect shit so I can buy shit.

 

Haha yeah but fun game, cant wait to pick up FC5, but first God of War this Friday

 

God of War is the only reason I want a PS4. My buddy is going to let me borrow his so I can play the game. It really is the only game I miss on PS.

 

PlayStation won this time over Xbox with games and just in general.

 

But then again I would rather play on the PC if possible.
