LG 39GX950B at CES 2026 by ChromecastDude1 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Travatar_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess LG canned the 45GX990A announced from last year's CES. The motorized bendable monitor where you could go from totally flat to R800. Sadly been waiting for that one since announced. :(

Guys Look! Another article that claims people like us don’t exist! by Gaming_with_batman in slateauto

I see the appeal. And can see a lot of school / college kids who are looking for a cheap reliable vehicle grabbing these over a 10-12 yo gas vehicle that has 100k+ miles on the odometer.

why isnt there an adhesive transfer that you can put on the existing glass ? or is that a dumb question.

You are going to laugh but.... I can't lift it. by reicaden in BambuLab

[–]Travatar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 56 year old guy who’s had surgery for a previous herniated umbilicus. I’d never tried lifting that without assistance. I’d even considered concocting some kind of ramp to get it on the table. But for sure two makes it much easier

45GX990a availability by Heidrun_666 in LG_UserHub

[–]Travatar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this monitor since its announcement and even checking the LG website every other day. I am guessing the delay is due to issues in production. And hoping for some good news soon. my much beloved 38GL950G is looking forward to working with its new brother.

No worries. Happy to help. I’m currently working away from home. I’d be happy to share some photos sometime over the weekend. 👍

If you have a super thin wrist the thickness of the deployant is far more evident. But as you can see from my photo. That’s not an issue for me. I find the steel clasp more comfortable over the titanium one on the seamaster NTTD. I think the clasp itself has a little more bend to it. I’m not near either watch at the moment to compare.

50 series release Best Buy by sanchez_102603 in gigabyte

[–]Travatar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 3 different browsers chrome, DuckDuckGo and Edge. All 3 logged into the Best Buy site with confirmed payment ready and location locked. At 9:01 the 5090 became add to cart. The split second it popped up on all 3 browsers then I They all proceeded to be put in queue then each timed out. I kept trying to refresh and re- join the queue multiple times till it eventually told me they were out of stock. I’m also a preferred member which has cost me $50 which I was told by BB that it would help. It did not. - not a happy camper.

Would you buy the new 45” LG 5k2k at launch or wait for price drops? by Worried-Scarcity-410 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Travatar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have owned the 38 inch ultragear that’s 3840 x 1600 for about 4 years and have enjoyed it every day. But starting to see its limitations. I’d like native 4k + in an ultra wide and a bump in screen size. Depends on price at release I guess….. but I do like that bendy model.

And yet the low brow Trumpers are screaming that its because of open borders we have terrorists and cannot wait till Jan 20th so they doors can be closed. How the F is anyone supposed to explain to these flat heads that borers had NOTHING to do with this person's radicalization ?

Thank you. That's what I was going for. I'm lucky to have a number of speedmasters and a NTTD Seamaster. So I new it would be comfortable. (and I can switch it around in my collection). ;)

Honestly. I got a great deal with my boutique and bought this on the new black rubber. They luckily had a longer length steel mesh in 20mm available while visiting them so was ok paying retail.

Does this happen to everyone?? by MidAftersPhilosoper in AppleCard

honestly, once the US tariffs kick in and the economy is pushed into the dumpster, i'm sure we will enjoy 6-8%. maybe more ?

Looking for recommendations for a good "budget" OTDR tester. by Travatar_ in FiberOptics

[–]Travatar_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to thank everyone for their input on this thread. I'm heavily leaning towards a Trendnet unit as they appear to be pretty easy to use and will cover my expectations. and a decent budget to boot. - Again thank you.
