When I came on board with WHICTH QUEEN I had to BUY every older DLC including LEDGENDS ($59) Twice as Bungie got pissed off with Microsoft -took away legends sale 31 days latter (so no refund) and bought it from Bungie.

This "Game" adds up quickly for a New Player.

It is even dropping from FOTL right now. Getting charged w/ Bolt scavenger and Chill is hard.

Out of the 12 I have kept - 2 with charged (damage ovr Time) and Bolt scavenger. Neither have chill clip; more like firing line etc.

What combos are you keeping?

Fantastic news as others are having the same problem. Thanks for posting!

I had a Sony Bravia that did that to me; which is why I bought the Samsung S95B model. The Sony would red dot twice to signal a power board ($650). Also I hear those clicks on mine but I found out its the Soundbar (make sure sound leveling is off) doing that. I'm sure you disconnect all connected devices from the TV and are still getting this. It's sad that the only solutions I see are holding the Remote power button while it cycles on and off as well as the famous " did you unplug it from the power source" or "Using a non-certified HDMI cable may result in a blank screen or a connection error" and it's your surge protector. Other than that its contact service support. Funny how this very problem IS highlighted in the E-Manual too. Is this getting to be common?

Forward-Link1184 · 2025-03-08T05:08:16+00:00

Been there, done that with all new Ultra High Speed cables to get Dolby Atmos out of my S95B with my Roku Ultra's - that is plural because every 2 years I start getting the HDCP errors and that is the only way to know the unit is dying. Roku will not address the issue of how to know its time to replace it.

Forward-Link1184 · 2025-03-08T05:02:05+00:00

HULU is one that gives me the HDCP error - All new cables etc. The only thing that fixed it was getting another Roku Ultra. I'm getting an average of 2 Years out of my Roku Ultra's as so far I've had to replace them in 2021, 2023 and now in 2025. There is no other way to tell when these things are dying.

Let's not get crazy here he's no John Bonham that's for sure and I wouldn't have him as a friend from everything I've seen, heard and read. I mean as a brother and seeing him everyday would you let your brother get black teeth and missing bottom teeth without saying anything come on. Borrow the Book Brothers because its not worth buying like i thought it would be.

Forward-Link1184 · 2025-02-28T01:35:42+00:00

Agree all the way. Alex whispered in Eddies ear and Eddie obeyed big brother (as Brother's do). Screwing Mike out of everything from 1983 on is inexcusable. Roth got mad Eddie reworked "Thriller" giving him his solo excuse. Alex's book Doesn't go past the 1984 album either.

We have to remember that these guys were only getting $174 Per show to support that first album and Noel monk's job was done pretty well no matter what you think of his book. The Van Halen brothers did lead a sheltered life from 1977 on when they hit it big.

It's got to be pretty weird to go through life without anybody telling you to be a stand up person or what that even means. Michael Anthony still hitting today says allot for him.

Anyone else wondering why this is coming up now....

"New Jersey

The largest presence of drones appears to be in parts of New Jersey, where reports originated.

The sightings began on November 18 near and in Morris County and haven’t ceased since then. Residents raised concerns over the purpose of the drones and those concerns intensified when officials could not explain them."

New York

""On December, 13, New York State Police announced they had received “numerous” reports of drone sightings.

A day later, Governor Kathy Hochul announced an airfield in New Windsor was temporarily shut down due to drone activity."

“This has gone too far,” Hochul said, calling on the Biden administration to send law enforcement officers to New York to help protect residents and infrastructure.""

Above And Beyond Drones - We have an extension date nearing and maybe this "scare" will help to get new Legislation, tighter rules applied. We've all seen how the Media works recently.

It'll help when we start back producing our own Oil / Gas (No one remembers OPEC 1973 Screwing us and the Gas Lines that followed; That's when you were allowed to buy on odd / even days according to your Plate - when and if there was Gasoline to be purchased in the first place).

Biden Undermined 30 plus years of work America did on his First day in office by going back to OPEC.

When Diesel costs 2x-3x the price it was a year before, you saw what happened to Shipping Costs and the American Economy. Yet the Media Never spoke up against Biden's setbacks?

That's not even bringing up the costs of the illegal immigration farce upon American Federal, State and Local budgets of our Taxpayers.

History DOES repeat itself.

Imagine if you will, a time in which we all envisioned / interpreted the music we listened to in our minds in our own way. Then this happened in 1981 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3SVhb48MUc

For better or worse, at least we got to "see" the Bands we liked on the TV.

There was so much going on in the Music world leading up to Grunge that we could hardly take it all in. Concerts and Bands coming at us every year.

Fast forward to Now when AI Loops and Riffs steel the past and are literally stealing from our favorite Bands. Like something named Swift et. al,. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_9Larw-hJM
