    The screen on my 55" LG 4k OLED is 10 1/2 feet from my head. And the picture looks amazing.

    Hip-Hop/Rap thread

    I posted about this in the "listening to right now" thread, but I really fucking like this song. It's a story! Lives up to the name Mona Lisa.

    Antiperspirant/Deodorant discussion

    Hands down, salt based deodorant. This shit is amazing. It keeps the stink away, even though I continue to sweat. Here's a link to the female one, but it's 100% the same as the male. Just in a pink case instead of a dark gray one. I'm linking this because the male stuff is currently really...

    Men's Bar Soap for Showering

    I'm getting close to finishing up the last bar (Oatmeal). This is definitely my 3rd favorite bar of the bunch. It makes a lot of lather and has chunks of oatmeal in it, which I think acts as an exfoliant (not 100% on that). This bar works well, but it'll be gone soon. Next up is the mint Dr...

    But how great did that red and black lava demon guy look? He really pops on the screen. Lava is just stunning.

    b7 doesn't exist any longer. That was the older curved screen 3D 55" version. The c8 is the 65" version with a flat screen.

    Car Audio wiring question.

    What actually kills a speaker is clipping. Any time the sound a speaker tops or bottoms out making a |_| instead of a U with the signal, that flat spot does nothing but generates heat. As long as there is movement, there's no heat. Heat will eventually melt the voice coil (well, damage it)...

    Fall 2018 Anime Thread

    Depends how far along the light novel is. That's what causes a manga or anime to be created. Light Novels fuel everything.

    Most mobo's have a quality sound card built in these days. But if you really need a separate card, sound blaster is the way to go.

    Fall 2018 Anime Thread

    Very true, but they did say Goblin King. He's easily 10 levels above the other goblins (equal to a platinum adventurer). He might have some AE spell that they wanted a priest around for, just to be safe. The group's build looks a little lacking as well. Ranger & 2 warriors. Goblin Slayer...

    You're right. If you click on the title, it takes you to the page that actually plays. Good call.

    Car Audio wiring question.

    When dealing with factory systems, it's a difficult thing to say for sure. I know many "premium audio" systems have independent smaller amps across every speaker. Definitely on the sub. In some cases they work fine, assuming you just connect the lead cable up, telling the amp to turn itself...

    That's something I would never even consider doing, but it's fascinating none the less. Very interesting. EDIT: Oh yeah, my computer hasn't reset since that first and only time when I fixed the RAM. All is good now. I'm considering a new video card at some point, but I don't really "need" one.

    Regarding Goblin Slayer - That elven arrow was pretty sweet. And the episode ended on a high point. The guitar sound as the group left the clearing got me pumped... but then episode over.

    Pats is shit. Geno's is also. You want a good steak? My favorite thus far is from this real piece of garbage hole in the wall place called Liberty Steaks & Hoagies on MacDade Blvd over by Widener University. It was incredible. I like that they actually have a large chunk of beef & use a...

    I finally got around to watching the end of High Score Girl. I ended up really liking this show. It was a love story full of the games I played in my youth. Pretty good stuff.

    Slime is great, as is Bunny Girl. Goblin Slayer rules like Berserk. Except, I don't think they would remove nipples in Goblin Slayer.

    Shameless

    This season is great thus far. The 6th episode was star studded. Frank's new love interest is none other than Peggy Bundy. Lip's new acquaintance is Courtney Cox. And the priest that V & Kev meet is the one, the only, Bob Saget. Ha, this is great.

    I have an old 2nd gen Kindle. I broke my old one, so I purchased one of the newer kindles. I really didn't like it. Something about the old one just feels proper in my hand. Plus, you can't go wrong with the leather case. Anyway, I went on ebay and found a few others in the $25-30 range, so...

    Fall 2018 Anime Thread

    This week's Slime was solid. He can now upgrade everyone with names. Might be due to the internal Dragon. Or maybe it's just because he was also named. Will future kids in the named goblin families also be named by their parents, or will they just be "goblin" once more?

    I had a chicken cheese steak from there last night, and I like it. For the price, it's much better than the standard cheese steak (doesn't have nearly enough meat in it). The chicken one is loaded. It's as good as it gets without returning back to Philly.

    Sirius XM at Work

    Hmm... Tough choice. If you had a throw away phone that you could connect to the app with using the company's WIFI, then bluetooth said phone onto a set of speakers, that would be your best choice. Either that or maybe the company has a computer somewhere that could connect to the sirius/xm...

    The computer ran for a few hours after that first reset without error, and has been fine since. I'll chalk it up to maybe the building power flickering or something.
