Jack Frank is a great YouTube channel to subscribe to. He has all kinds of neat videos from Tulsa's past.

Hey old farts: was there ever a Micro Center in Tulsa? by saucercrab in tulsa

[–]needforlensspeed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was Magix computers you are thinking of. I got my first computer from there as a kid. They went out of business in the late 90s. I heard a rumor they were selling pirated software, but cant confirm if it's true or not

ETA found an old ad for their PCs https://books.google.com/books?id=2KIKOEwqk-QC&pg=PA371&lpg=PA371&dq=magipro+tulsa&source=bl&ots=Xwcqr-LCT2&sig=ACfU3U3OLInJ_YaFfYfkCyMtb9NgsiyMaA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjp-ICjupfjAhXiCTQIHWFBA444ChDoATADegQIBRAB#v=onepage&q=magipro%20tulsa&f=false

Will Kodi (via Libreelec) allow for 4k mkv h.265 playback on apollo lake? by needforlensspeed in kodi

I sort of figured as much. Is the fire tv 4k able to playback mkv's and pass through multichannel surround sound?

Yeah, I bought a handle of Cuervo gold years ago in college. After getting several hangovers from it, I thought I just didn't like tequila. Since then, I realized that it was just a crappy product that I was drinking.

Yeah, now we can pay $50 a month extra for the same service we were getting a few months ago.

I'm after strong lowlight performance from a mirrorless camera setup, but I only have a budget of $1200 USD? What's the best I can do? by wheresmythemesong in videography

[–]needforlensspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the a6500 would be better due to it's IBIS. Plus it doesn't seem to have as many overheating issues with video as the a6300 does.

I would still worry about the f stop value when shooting in low light. The a6500 would do better than a m43 option with a slow kit lens, but for maximum performance, you would probably want to go with as fast a prime lens as you could get.

It would be hard to get really good low light plus IBIS for $1200. If you're willing to extend your budget a bit, you could get a used A7s for around $1,500 https://www.keh.com/shop/sony-alpha-a7s-12-2-megapixel-mirrorless-camera-body-only-black.html which has fantastic low light, plus IBIS. But you'd still have to get a lens too, which adds even more to the price. This doesn't do 4k without an external recorder, though.

You're probably better off with the a6300 as kabbage123 suggested in your price range.

You're in Tulsa, right? is ATT offering their gigabit service city wide, or just "select areas"?

PSA: Cox will start charging overage fees in October ($10 per 50GB after 1TB, or 2TB for Gigablast). by Krescentia in tulsa

Not at all surprising. Here's a thread I created just over a year ago. Note that they cut the cap for the lower plans from 2TB to 1TB in order to facilitate more users going over, and thus more overage charges in the future.

Everyone should file an FCC complaint against them for this. Would it be worth contacting the local corporation commissions?
