Seems like the fire interface is easier for the wife and kids, I don't watch much of anything. I don't use plex or kodi so I'm not sure.

I'm re-thinking the notebook, the chromebook keeps up with what they do for the most part.

And leaning towards going with the s10e from BB for same price just have stupid verizon upgrade fees.

Part of me would rather have a previous generation phone though.

I don't remember if cricket did the half off on the s10, they definitely did on the s8 and s9, they always do it for cyber monday. You can pay for the 75$ month service and unlock the first month.

chrome book, it's enough for most things, but it's one of those things that frustrate you once in a while.. and are these frustrations worth a $200 cost difference is how i see it.

It seems like a lot of vendors just increased the base price of their products and called the current price that is the same as before the sale a sale price. Pretty ****ing scummy.

Oh just saw there is a 15% of all books coupon for today! I got a book and an electric coffee warmer.

Amazon warehouse workers are on strike on "Prime Day" in protest of working conditions.

Not that I would be buying anything from Amazon anyway. I've known for twenty years that Amazon is evil.

That certainly does take the energy out of things.. hrrrm... I've been hesitant ever since the Oliver episode.

In the back of my mind, if a decent 70+ inch TV comes across, Not sure I can resist, but other than that, I shall abstain.

I might pickup another fire stick we seem to have misplaced one of them.

Instead of another fire stick, I finally replaced the living room tv with a 4k with fire built in, and I'll relocate that stick.  On the old tv, the remote stopped working long ago, so it's been a pain for a while.

It seems like a lot of vendors just increased the base price of their products and called the current price that is the same as before the sale a sale price. Pretty ****ing scummy.

Oh just saw there is a 15% of all books coupon for today! I got a book and an electric coffee warmer.

CamelCamelCamel FTW!  Checked everything bought to see the history of the item.  I saw a few that I gave the side-eye to...

not nokn' ur purchase, but, absyrd can get a used 580 or 1060 for $150

This model of the 580 survive mining just fine. Make sure you ask them to flash back the Original bios.

As for 1060, that's a little harder to buy, either the FTW/ FTW+ or Aorus.
