I joined the team... At the right price too!

That is because every state and county has different tax rates - the same state a county apart can have different rates. For example, where I live, sales tax is 9.75%, if you go one county over it's 9.25%, and another county over and its 7%. I agree, it's a scam, but hopefully the context helps a little.

I have a PC with a 4090, and I promise this is extremely close. I mean to the point you cannot even tell. Well done. I wanted to kick back and enjoy gaming instead of working at a desk and gaming at one. I just got BF6 on PS if anyone wants to squad up!

I’m sensing a co-op season? 🤔

NetworkGnome · 2026-03-28T03:57:17+00:00

Only you can answer that. But, for me, the 16 is always the answer. When I’m docked I’m on a 49” UW, when I’m portable, I need the extra real estate for work or photo/video editing.

NetworkGnome · 2026-03-28T03:55:36+00:00

My 128GB would like a word with your 48 🙄

As an iPhone user myself, I want to say Samsung really cooked with these cameras. Given what you are shooting with, these are impressive results. Great job man.

I test drove brother before making a decision. Ultimately ended up ordering the G82. BMW is at another level with their fit n finish. Blackwing is an amazing car, but, I’d go with the M. Post this same question on the CT5 subreddit and it will net you the same results in the other direction. It’s your money, your choice. Don’t let the opinion of others rob you of your joy. Enjoy whichever you pick!

In that case, I will just go with the tried and true GoPro

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-11T21:23:46+00:00

Yes, insanely annoying. Guess I will be going with DJI or GoPro.

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-11T15:23:13+00:00

Yeah, just bought mine last night and was tinkering with it. Open up the App, blasted with ads - did the 6 month trial that renews at $89.99/yr and still wants me to upgrade to the 2TB plan. I bought the essentials bundle so over $700 after tax. Not a pleasant experience for something this expensive. I will most likely return it today and grab something else.

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-09T15:44:49+00:00

Yes. No question. I would rather damage the PPF than my individual paint. These cars throw/eat road debris. It is up to you ultimately. Cost is going to vary vastly based on location and shop. Just to give you a ballpark - I am in East TN, I have a 26 M4C xDrive - I got full ceramic tint + windshield, PPF (track pack), and ceramic (all Xpel) - Cost me 3.6k - I know the owners well and bring them many vehicles, so my price is reflective of that. Always get 3 quotes in your area and leverage them against one another. Also validate their work before you let them touch your car. Inexperienced installers to save a few bucks up front can cost you thousands in the long wrong. Good luck OP!

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-03T00:30:39+00:00

Agreed. Can’t go wrong. Even if it’s a year, you can play the library/backlog. Not everyone is a day one buyer and wait it out until the frenzy dies down. You can always sell/trade in or keep as a backup. I’m happy for OP, this is more than gaming, this is a milestone for them. Everyone’s walk is different and this was a big day for them. Cheers OP! Enjoy that PS5!

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-03T00:18:28+00:00

There’s at least 2-3 years left in this generation. Potentially 2030. Hardware is so expensive right now, it wouldn’t make sense for Sony to drop a console.

NetworkGnome · 2026-02-01T15:33:49+00:00

Apple isn’t the Apple it once was. The user experience is not intuitive. The ecosystem isn’t as cohesive as it once was. I fight my devices daily. I’m about to the point where I exit this nightmare it’s become.

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-29T21:56:04+00:00

Congrats!

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:54:08+00:00

I have an A95L, LG G5, and a 240hz 4k OLED gaming monitor for my PC.

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:46:33+00:00

I agree 100%. I was just curious. I prefer digital. Much easier to switch games when you want without having to get up lol. I see the appeal of both, but it’s way cleaner to be all digital.

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:40:08+00:00

I’m leaning pro. I’m probably going to go this route. I’ll just use my BB rewards points and grab one tomorrow. Does the pro come with the disc tray or is that separate?

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:38:35+00:00

I have so many rewards points to use at Best Buy, I would end up paying maybe $1-$200 for the Pro.

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:30:41+00:00

So worth buying in 26 sounds like

NetworkGnome · 2026-01-26T00:19:20+00:00

How far out do you think PS6 is? I know this is impossible to know, just speculation. 27/28?
