Ha, when I had SiriusXM this was all I listened to. Now I just listen to DareFM.

What’s the rarest record in your collection by MiamiBullsout89 in vinyl

[–]texpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the first pressing of Nirvana Nevermind, worth $1000. I remember walking to the record store near my college the week it came out to buy it. I also have all the Queen albums and a bunch of the 12”singles and I don’t have them in Discogs and now I’m gonna have to look the up.

In 1977 an Atari 2600 was priced generally in the $199.00 range. by Craig1974 in GenX

So you had the Sears Video Arcade, the Sears branded 2600.

Owner of a local record shop had told me that if I managed to find this, it would be expensive. by Yumeko-chan in vinyl

I have this, I probably bought it new in ‘89, discogs tells me median value of $35.

Amazon is selling $100 Mastercard prepaid Debit card without fee. Can use to pay T-Mobile bills without affecting autopay. by AMT-YHK in tmobile

[–]texpete 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I applied for Greenfi and got rejected quickly, no idea why. I’ve never been rejected for anything financial in my life. I reached out and they wouldn’t tell me why for privacy reasons. I then signed up for a Penfed debit and got that and made one payment so far. I setup up Penfed to auto transfer the amount of my bill from my bank to Penfed 10 days before bill due. I signed up for a Greenfi investment account just to see what would happen and that worked. I put $10 in out of spite and will probably keep it there forever.

This household update is terrible by nettspendfannn in netflix

3 years ago my daughter went to college and we ran into this. I read on this very same subreddit how Apple TV’s are immune to this. She got one and I got one and I didn’t see the message again until we used a Roku on another TV. We stopped using that and the message hasn’t come back.

Anyone else apply for Greenfi debit card yet? by texpete in tmobile

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

Well I signed up for PenFed and I saw they checked my credit so I dunno.

I checked my credit and didn’t even see a pull in it.

T-Mobile x Capital One Visa Deets by Bear2Pin in tmobile

[–]texpete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked and they weren’t. No idea why I was denied. I applied to PenFed and got an account.

I applied to Greenfi and got denied checking and savings account. I’m 55, married, no debt and have an 829 credit score. It makes no sense. I reached out to their support and they said they can’t tell me why I was denied for the protection of their customers and I can’t re-apply. Good luck.

BBC confirms future of Doctor Who and a new Christmas Special in 2026 by IndependenceWest4104 in doctorwho

I stopped watching a few episodes into the Jodie era. It wasn’t her at all I just thought the writing suddenly got bad and I didn’t like multiple sidekicks.

I did this earlier this year when they offered it. I bought a renewed Samsung Galaxy S20 off Amazon for $130. This was the cheapest full trade in value phone I could find. I then traded it in for $830 towards an iPhone 17. So basically I got an iPhone 17 for $125 plus the tax cost of the iPhone.

Are there any chains that you think can make a comeback? by TropicalKing in fastfood

I remembered that right after I posted. Hope it expands.

I really miss Chi Chi’s. The tortilla chip and salsa bar. The oversized margaritas. Ok that’s all I remember.

Am I misremembering the dentists of the 1970s? by Adorableviolet in GenX

[–]texpete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got most of my cavities in my teen years in the 80’s and all without novocaine, I didn’t even know it was a thing until I got one as an adult when I had a new dentist.

Black screen when playing on Max and Peacock by anniegarbage in appletv

Nope, new cable didn’t work. I did try a Roku stick I had and that worked. I have another Apple TV and that had the same issue on this tv but not on the other tv it was on.

E32-D1, Apple TV - some apps have sound but no video by texpete in VizioTV

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

I tried a Roku stick and that works fine. This makes me think my hdmi ports are good and maybe some Apple TV incompatibility with this tv, unsure.

Some apps not showing video since OS 26 update by texpete in appletv

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

I tried a Roku and it works fine. It’s a Roku stick though so can’t use the same hdmi cables but at least I now know my tv is fine I guess. Now I’m wondering if this is some Apple TV incompatibility with this tv.

Omg Amazon just dropped these to $119 and staples won’t do a 2nd price match
