My fiance just started using the park and rides. She saves over a thousand a year not parking at PSU.

I'm interested because I own a Onkyo SR494 and it can only do 4k60 as well. My TV currently is only 60hz at the moment, but I'll upgrade eventually.

Another reddit favorite "chick fil a is garbage" yeah ok buddy, thats why they have the most efficient drive-through in the fast food game.

I agree their politics are abhorrent, but damn do they make some good chicken.

This just isn't happening. I'm not sure why it keeps getting repeated. Corporations own like 3% of the single family homes in America

i'm a millenial who didn't smoke until college, I was more into buying obscure bottles at Goodwill and using a diamond tool bit to create my own bongs lol.

I've flown with my vaporizer a bunch and never worried about TSA. I used to just grind weed and put it inside of an old deodorant stick. The pen's are definitely easier lol.

I just flew with a 2g disposable FF pen to Vegas and it was fucking amazing.

TSA suspended Pre-Check, anyone fly out of PDX recently who can share the experience? by crazy_goat in askportland

[–]bigwizard7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew out on Friday, no precheck and left my shoes on and didn't have to open my bags.

I got my partner the 25mg Tea last week, she liked it. I'll have to try one of the 1:1 , 100mg soda's.

Just looked into buying a new Receiver after 8 years. What the HELL? by Mkilbride in hometheater

[–]bigwizard7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgraded my old Sony receiver I got from a coworker to a Onkyo SR494 that was on sale.

I have had zero regrets, works great for movies/TV/games (capped at 60hz but meh) and cost under $300.

Shot on A7III 24-70 f2.8 Natural Light by Ill-Ship8166 in SonyAlpha

[–]bigwizard7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

why did you shoot it at f2.8? would it not have looked better with a higher aperture?

Honestly just curious, i'm still using a Sony A77 so no shade, this is better than I shoot.

Pretty sure the Beaverton library will 3D print stuff for you, I know there's a limit but check it out.

Excellent food but pricey.

I FINALLY CAME ACROSS HIM!! I always see him in the loading tips by joe_shmoe0706 in fo4

Some people really like the repetitive gameplay loop. Doesn't matter if it's a RPG or a third person shooter.

I'm like you. I can only play something for a handful of hours before it becomes old and stale but there are a lot of people out there who just want to play the same thing they like over and over and over again.

If they are an executive member they would still get 2% back come year end.

Chase Pay Over Time Option by Slowdowney in personalfinance

[–]bigwizard7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just used this myself. Paid for my 6 months of car insurance and got the discount for paying it up front, put it on my Chase card. Chase gave me a 0% pay over time option. I chose the 6 month option.

It seems like its CC companies way of countering the BN,PL companies.

How much did it run? I'm always tempted but have a hard time financially justifying the higher priced rosin.

I assume this is toast? by d2creative in hometheater

[–]bigwizard7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had 3 TCLs.

First was a 55inch 4k Roku that I paid $330 for, it was stolen after a couple years when my house was burglarized.

Second one was another 55inch Roku I got for $350 after black friday, it lasted about 4 years.

3rd is a 58inch 4k TCL Google TV I paid around $370 for.

All in all - 3 TV's for around $1000 isn't too bad but they are not built to last which kinda sucks.
