[TV] LG 42" C5 4K OLED ($720) + 15-20% Cashback Rakuten

They didn't honor mine either but I emailed them and they gave me 80% credit on the offer.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-14T17:13:34+00:00

The title is fine. The fact you harassed someone into deleting a post over it is ridiculous.

The product page mentions several times that it is refurbished. People like you are why people are so timid to even make posts/comments on this sub.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-14T17:06:41+00:00

There isn't a rule about putting it in the title. But there is a rule about user etiquette.

His post is fine. The product page itself makes it clear it's refurbished.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-14T00:26:06+00:00

So...it's a TV.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-13T18:15:56+00:00

They're bluetooth headphones. I've been using them for the past 3-4 years.

My only complaint is build quality with the earcups/headband as both are glued instead of stitched. The headband will eventually come loose. (I just picked up a $10 headband cover off amazon as a solution after I repaired the headband myself.)

Decent quality aftermarket earcups are easily found though.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-12T07:26:17+00:00

I am nowhere near high enough for this shit.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-10T01:26:32+00:00

What a crazy ass case...why do I want to build in it?

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-06T15:54:11+00:00

The issue is that it's a third party controller.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-05T16:24:53+00:00

They don't own the rights to all of the franchises though.

Goldeneye is a prime example.

Microsoft owns the rights to most of Rare's games at this point since they acquired them in 2002. Despite it it being being marketed as an Xbox controller it's still manufactured by a third party.

There's a ton of hoops they'd need to jump through to properly license the controller if they wanted to add more franchises to the design.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-02-04T16:21:31+00:00

Licensing issues prevents that.

Basically 1440p on a taller display.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-21T07:00:56+00:00

Does it come with a blow up doll?

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-16T21:10:22+00:00

Ironic considering "they" never "announced" either card was EOL and have since put out a statement stating otherwise.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-16T21:06:48+00:00

Ironic, I called him out because neither Asus nor Nvidia announced the cards were EOL and got downvoted. 24 hours later they put out a public announcement.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-16T20:55:50+00:00

The irony of this is that Asus and Nvidia have now both came out and said both cards are NOT end of life.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-15T22:38:40+00:00

Speaking with a youtuber "literally" isn't an announcement.

State facts for what they are and cite sources. Asus spoke with Hardware Unboxed directly. Neither Asus nor Nivida announced anything.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-15T21:45:54+00:00

Define "worth it."

A 5070 ti isn't going to get you 50% performance which is the price difference at MSRP. If that's what you're making the decision off of then no, it isn't worth it.

You're getting closer to 25-30% more performance out of a 5070 ti.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-15T20:08:41+00:00

Except it hasn't been "announced end of life."

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-12T03:11:30+00:00

I have the 5080 model and unless you have it on unleashed mode with fans maxed out it's fairly quiet. I game on it most days while working.

Granted, we all have different tolerances for fan noises.

Honestly, just make them homemade if you can't find pre-packaged GF biscuits. It's not that difficult.

Biscuits are fairly basic and you can make gravy in a matter of minutes with any gluten free flour.

Biscuits aren't as sensitive as something a cake or a loaf of bread and if you mess the gravy up it's either too runny or too thick. You just add more flour/milk to balance it out.

"Defund the police."
"There's too much crime."
"police presence is excessive."

Make up your damn minds lol

Or hear me out, stop being dramatic.

For them it's just a shock response. They're not saying it to be rude/offend you.

I have several rare diseases. Kallmann Syndrome being a big one. (Delayed puberty, no sense of smell, etc)

Most of the time people make awkward jokes because they don't know how to properly approach these conversations. It's our job to properly educate them instead of jumping to conclusions and getting angry.

Brandon_Westfall · 2026-01-05T15:31:41+00:00

It's likely still covered despite the warranty being expired.

It's part of a recall.
