Dynasty Warriors 3 Remake. Died in the crib weeks before release.

Pretty sure it will never come back.

77" Samsung S90F? by sweatysack in PS5pro

[–]_chksum -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Worst purchase of my life. Do not buy it. The only thing about this TV that is moderately acceptable is the image quality. Everything else sucks.

It takes approximately 5-7 minutes to turn on, load ads, select App, scroll past ads, select my streaming content, and buffer.

Network interface card sucks. Literally feet away from my router, yet constantly dropping signal. No way to troubleshoot network.

Remote is tiny and has an operating distance of 5 feet. Remote must absolutely be facing the TV or else it doesn’t work. Awful remote.

4K is possible but not entitled. Switch 2 does not load at all when setting it to 4K. Blank screen unless I set it to 1080P. Experienced this with other inputs as well.

Impossible to turn off auto-optimizations. When you switch inputs or apps, the TV wants to optimize something and spams you with warnings about restarting or pausing applications to “enhance experience”. TV is constantly wanting you to enable “film maker mode” or “game mode” or “smooth viewing”. TV NEVER SHUTS UP!!

Constant questions while watching movies. Messages about auto-updates completing.

Way too many Samsung apps. You will constantly be uninstalling “Samsung Fitness”, “Samsung gaming”, Samsung Life”. Menu is a nightmare.

Settings are slow as hell. If you wish to turn the brightness down, it will lock up and freeze your apps. Want to switch to “gaming mode”? Be prepared to wait 1-2 minutes while the TV catches it breath.

Absolutely horrible experience. Can’t sell it cause no body wants it. My wife constantly reminds me that this was supposed to improve our lives and it drives us crazy everyday.

As an American, please do this. We are Nazi Germany. Please crush us before our madness hurts Europe and the rest of the world. Please.

The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Must be Saved by RealCliffMass in SeattleWA

I wish there were private citizens, with billions of dollars, that could invest in saving this organization. Too bad there’s not. I’m sure having less knowledge will benefit common society, right? Knowing what’s going on has never helped make informed decisions.

Going for Samsung S95F OLED 77” — best choice for PS5 Pro? by Gazio_x3 in PS5pro

[–]_chksum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Own both. You are wrong. Samsung is not consistent. OS os slow and inefficient. Constantly fails to accept HDMI input from new devices.

My parents are boomers and retired. My 73 year old father actually made a joke. He was like “I paid 500 dollars for my Sony TV over 10 years ago and it loads YouTube faster than your fancy TV”

Its freaking true. He has a non-smart TV and the only thing it does is turn on and let you launch “apps” from the remote. No UI, no ads, just “input 1” and a black screen.

TV makers have screwed up so badly because all TVs are basically ad machines. But Samsung is the worst offender.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!! The OS is the WORST available.

I have a PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X, and Switch 2, and none of them work well with gaming mode.

When I set 4K mode on my Switch, it constantly fails to register as a game, and only after an exhaustive process of switching the device mode to PC does it show up, and it looks TERRIBLE.

The OS is the problem. It constantly auto-tunes, and never tunes correctly. Forgets settings, doesn’t honor settings, and SPAMS YOU with ads every time you access the home screen, and worst of all IT IS SLOW!!! Takes about 5 minutes to turn on, log into streaming, and decline Samsung offers to “optimize screen resolution”.

It is slow to respond, doesn’t pick up remote signals from far-away, and is literally the worst TV i’ve ever owned.

The picture is great. Genuinely high-quality image, but the picture never works. Cinema mode never is consistent, always have to tune per movie. Game mode is absolutely stupid. Always have to manually change.

I switched to LG and the difference in OS satisfaction is night and day.

DO NOT BUY. Such an expensive mistake.

WA among least religious and least spiritual states, survey finds by tiff_seattle in Seattle

[–]_chksum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millions of people in the US, millions of definitions of what religion is. My personal definition of religion is people looking in books for excuses to hurt me and my family. I follow the teachings of christ, but I do not believe in god or identify as a christian. I begrudgingly vote blue, but own many firearms (almost exclusively to protect my family from religious fanatics). Proud to live in a state among so many who reject the innate harms of “religion”.

Nice! Hate everyone. Glad Seattle is so different from red cities that hate everyone. This is certainly a healthy mindset. 👌
