I picked up a Lenovo Chromebook Duet to use as a portable machine/tablet to study more easily. It works excellently and gets excellent battery life. My only complaint is that the keyboard is very difficult to type on.

 

I was also able to pick up a Razer Basillisk Essential on clearance at Walmart for $12! Its awesome, no complaints so far.

Looked that TV up on LG's website seems pretty nice. Though they have it listed for $1400, so it should be nice. LOL. Hopefully you're able to enjoy that bad boy. 

Its by far the best picture I've watched, and I haven't really messed with it aside from turning all the post processing off. Spiderman into the spiderverse was insane on it.

Using for a tv or monitor? I was considering it for a monitor

TV hooked up to a series x, but it'd be a great monitor if I did a lot of gaming on the PC. Now days I mostly use the PC to browse the net.

If you haven't had an LG OLED TV before, you're going to love it! 

Nope, first OLED in general. Its well worth it. Still a bit spooked out about OLED burn in, but the rtings study gave me some confidence that in my mixed usage there shouldn't be much to worry about.

Unless you really innapropriately use the TV, you should not worry at all.

 

I have had LG OLED65B7V for almost three years by now and I still have absolutely zero burn in even though I have it turned on for most of the night when I am sleeping watching channel with static logo (though the logo does go away in commercials and I also have it on lowest brightness for the night).

 

The burn in is really overblown (though for such an expensive piece of tech, it is better for the issue to be overblown than to underestimate it obviously).

I thought I'd get into airsoft this summer, it's an outdoor sport and it's half cosplay so that's fun.  Going with Japanese GSDF camo cause... Uhh cause my partner is in the Canadian Armed Forces so if I wore CADPAT to do BB Gun Cosplay, the same thing she wears to work, I'd literally die if embarrassment.

Starting what I am calling my Beast Build.  But considering I am posting this on LTT Forums I will just go with my first build since my 4770k and GTX 780.  

Still haven't decided if I am going with the AIO I ordered or a loop.  

Waiting on parts still obviously.  They are in the mail.

I dream of an Apple MacBook. I've gone through all the reviews. I've been saving for it for six months now, I even decided to take out a loan. But now I have doubts for some reason. Maybe I'm not the right place, but tell me your opinion. Is this purchase worth the credit and will it be more enjoyable than the disappointment of overpayment? 

Unless your computer is a source of revenue, I would recommend not borrowing money to buy one. Either waiting longer to save enough or buying a cheaper (maybe even used) computer sounds like a better option to me. 

I am far from an expert in this so please correct me if I’m wrong.

Quote or tag me so I can see your response

I wont comment on borrowing money to buy a computer, thats up to you. What I will say though is that overall my Macbook is the best computer purchase I have ever made. My macbook is 12 years old and still chugging along just fine. Couple small tweeks here and there but overall its been fantastic. On that note its hard for me to call it overpriced after getting that kinda service out of it

Its not worth a loan. Just keep saving. I would never take out a loan for a computer. I already took out a loan for my degree and Ill have to take out another when I buy car at the end of its lease. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

Bought a new album on CD for the first time in my life. Scaled and Icy by Twenty One Pilots. I know people talk about it all the time, but I've been very impressed by the audio quality a CD provides compared to streaming services. It makes my car's speakers sound somewhat not bad.

 

I've always been a big fan of Twenty One Pilots, but their previous album (Trench) was kind of a disappointment to me. This album is a huge return to form for them, with some incredible songs that have been stuck in my head on repeat since the drop. I'd maybe go as far as saying it's their best album yet... Hence why I decided to buy a physical copy. And man does that artwork look nice too.

One of my friends whos super into pop figures told me about a tanjiro pop figure which is coming out and he told me that the preorder opened up so i decided to pick up a figure of my precious boy. Plus it was only like $19 with shipping for the preorder so i think it was a good deal ngl.

 

I need to stop spending money tho
