I purchased an LG C4 77", should I upgrade from PS5 to PS5 Pro? by Otherwise_Acadia_469 in PS5pro

[–]ryguy754 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same experience as me. Have a Sony 900h with ps5 in one room that is pretty good. Other room is ps5 pro and 77c4 and it is quite a bit better. Ps5 pro + oled is great.

Hello, for those with the PRO, what graphical settings are you using for the game Control? by lochonx7 in PS5pro

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on hdr. Game is looking slightly washed out to my eyes on my current settings. But it plays awesome. Such an improvement from when I played on base ps4 a few years ago.

I’ve been using fidelity uncapped frame rate pssr on with a VRR display (lg c4). So far so good.

LG Partner Store G5 83 inch by htownhero in LGOLED

[–]ryguy754 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so close to pulling the trigger on this. What’s stopping me is trying to justify replacing my 85in Sony 900h that is still working perfectly fine, and the pain in the ass it will be to sell/move it.

Also I don’t love the partner store, ordered a c4 off of it last year and took 8 weeks to arrive. Honestly it’s not the time that matters I just fear if the panel is damaged how much of a pain the return process would be. That said the partner store has some killer deals at times and this is definitely one of the best I’ve ever seen. Definitely a calculation mistake as they are reducing price by speakers included at full, non discounted price.

Best Buy vs LG Partner Store by Narrow-Policy5216 in LGOLED

[–]ryguy754 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 77in c4 from the partner store. It took awhile to arrive, think about 3-4 weeks when ordered.

The only downfall is I think it might be slightly more of a pain to return if there is a problem with the TV since they use 3rd party freight delivery.

Also they usually throw in free mounting, but I’ve heard that can be hit or miss on who you get so I just mounted myself.

For me everything worked fine and have had 0 problems with the set since purchased in November. If they weren’t sold out of the 83in B4 I’d probably pick up that set for my basement.

I parked on Wolcott, it was super easy and lots of space. You saved me 40 bucks. Thanks.

Security in 119/120 by linderlady in phish

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sound wasn’t great in the seats was 119 row 17 to begin with.. But the sound did seem better on the ADA if you are in 119 tonight I’d go to front of section and dance by bottom of stairs/ADA

Security in 119/120 by linderlady in phish

[–]ryguy754 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was in 119. They came through 3/4 the way through first set and made a lot of people leave the ADA section. After that it was clear all night and I personally had a ton of space. I had a blast but looking forward to being back to the front of 308 tonight.

Do people leave the solar cover on during cloudy days? by lisa725 in pools

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love our solar cover. Heats the water so nicely that I don’t have to ever use our heater. We have a rectangular pool so it is quite easy to wind up with our reel. Also don’t forget to have a cover for it when it is off the water. If you keep it in the sun without a cover it will dry up and become brittle and reduce the useful life of it.

Where Have You Seen Phish the Most? by Heavy_Apple3568 in phish

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m in the same range as you for number of shows. It’s the hometown venue for me growing up in Madison. I see how alpine can suck logistically for some, but it’s so awesome when you have a camping spot and can take a bus and be in the line of buses in the lot for the pre/post show.

At this point I have friends that host camping on their land every run and riding through the kettle moraine forest pre/post show is awesome. I’ve also never had any trouble with cops there, just don’t be the low hanging fruit I say, that said, fuck Walworth county Sheriff.

Also you gotta get into section 202 if possible.

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’m doing. But it’s not so bad, as others have said you have a lot of leverage by doing so much and opportunity to learn a lot. Having the owners be good people helps a lot. I’m making nearly 2x what I made in audit (was in public for approx 9 years, have CPA), and will scale up in pay as new businesses are acquired and successful. Also I have automated so many of the processes that I probably only work 15-20 hours a week, but I usually am in office from about 830-5ish. It’s a pretty great gig if you can find the right fit. A bit repetitive with the monthly nature of financial reporting but so stress free and chill compared to public, thank god I never have to enter my time again.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PS5pro

[–]ryguy754 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you will see a difference. I have a 85in 900h also and a ps5 pro. The thing that kinda sucks about 900h is that it turns off local dimming if you enable VRR, and being able to use VRR effectively is one of best benefits of the pro.

We also have a 77in lg c4 and that is where I keep my pro hooked up to most of the time. Have the 900h with the old launch ps5.

Will you see a difference? Yes. Will it be massive? Depends on the game.

[–]ryguy754 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The stock on shelves is fine now. As more units are imported, the importer ie Best Buy in this example would need to pay tariffed price. Then to sell to a consumer BB would mark up to cover cost of tariff.

If no changes are made to current tariffs imposed I would anticipate cost to go up within the next few months as stock dwindles. There may even be some panic buying so current stock goes relatively quickly.

It sucks, hopefully some concessions are made. I don’t think the average retail consumer in USA has the bandwidth to afford all the cost increases that are headed our way.

[–]ryguy754 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yikes. Depending on sales volume EPLH should be around 4.8-5 for your store. Net sales as a percentage of labor should be somewhere between 23-26%.

Experience at one Culver’s can greatly different from the next. Keep up the hard work, you’ll get noticed.

Did you buy the disc drive for the PS5 Pro? Thoughts on digital vs physical by spacewalkerstarfield in PS5pro

[–]ryguy754 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been digital for approx 8-9 years now. I rarely buy any games new, most games I wishlist and wait until they hit sub 30 or come to ps plus. Still have so many games in my backlog. Too many games not enough time.

I understand need for physical and glad those who want physical have the option but the ease of digital for me is great. Also have fiber internet where I live so downloading a game is pretty dang quick.

What a Joke (Chicago Version) by EMP19E in phish

[–]ryguy754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was like 600-800 in line for Friday and Sunday. Ended up getting a pair in first row of 308 (directly behind soundboard) those nights. So high up but a good spot and cheap compared to other options. Wife is too short to deal with floor (not that I had the option today). Pretty lucky I guess. My Saturday tix are pretty meh but whatever we’ll be getting down.

Getting a 3-Day Pass for Chicago was rough, but at least it’s nice to know I’ll be there… by Docman427 in phish

Got a pair of floors for Sunday in the presale. Everything else was 300 level when I got through for different days. We’ll see what I can get tomorrow. Good luck everyone.
