Got this on sale. Looked interesting, like Fom Dusk to Dawn without vampires. Haven’t watched it yet but it looks like a not bad way to kill a couple hours.

It's a John Wick movie! Plot is pretty irrelevant. Just an excuse to let Keanu Reeves (and Hallie Berry this time) blow away as many bad guys as possible. A ballet of violence. Hard to imagine how they could up the game for John Wick 4 (and you know there's going to be one).

I bought this because a friend had gotten it and raved about the speed and coverage. I can't tell if the speed is that much greater than my old ac router but the coverage is better. It had better be because its insanely expensive. But it is future proof for WiFi6 when that shows up.

Bought this to round out the sound from my LG OLED TV. I thought it sounded pretty good for a flat screen but this makes it sound so much better. Can be hooked up using Bluetooth if you are lacking in HDMI ports, but I had some lipsync issues that way. Ended up using HDMI-ARC, which worked better. You can add rear speakers to get a true 5.1 setup [extra $179 however]. I didn't need that for casual listening; already have surround sound system for movies and such. Good product, especially if you can get it on sale.

Not a lot different from the other MCU movies, but still a good action flick. Looks especially good in 4K. Nice to see a woman kick butt as hard as a man. If you like the Avengers movies you’ll like this one.

This speaker has the great sound in a small package that Sonos is famous for, but it’s implementation of Alexa is not so great. First unit I got wouldn’t connect to Pandora at all. Second worked fine for awhile then wouldn’t play any music. Third one seems ok. All this time I have had 2 other Echo Dots connected to Bose speakers that had no problems at all. The sound is fantastic, but buyer beware if you want to fully utilise Alexa control.

I use these to pay when I renew my Sirius XM . This way you don’t have to pay a $2 invoice fee or give SiriusXM your credit card #. If they have your credit card they can auto bill you at their ridiculous “regular “ rate. A 5 minute phone call can get you a $5/month rate vs. their $14 “regular” rate.

What is the difference between the C series, A series and G series in your OLED smart TVs?
C series are the midline series, most bang for buck for most people. A series is the discount line; fewer features, older processors, etc. but they’re much cheaper. G series is top of the line; most features but highest price. G series are designed to be wall mounted; if you want a stand they are extra.

How does the tv do with sports and streaming thru the built in apps like Hulu for instance. Is there still a blur or does it keep up? Seems like it takes my older LG to buffer during games and ruin the play.

Hi, with these prepaid cards do you just add them to your account even if you have to use more than one ? Does Sirius accept more than one card on an account at once when you sign up ? Is Sirius better than other streaming services ? Thanks
Yes, if you login to your account online you'll see the is a box on the main page for redeeming a prepaid card. All you do is enter the code on the card on your account will be credited the face value of the card. Yes you can add as many cards as you want to redeem. You could also do this on the phone when you call them about renewing your subscription at a better price, but some of the reps don't seem to know about using prepaid cards. Their playbook is geared strictly to credit cards or invoices. So better to have the money in your account before you call.
Using a prepaid card does 2 things: One, it keeps them from having your credit card number on file so they can't automatically bill you at their exhorbitant retail rate. Teo, it saves you from having to pay a $2 invoice fee if you don't use a credit card.
As for is it better than other streaming services, probably not. It's more convenient, since it's built into most cars today, But so is Pandora, which is free (with ads).

LG - 3.1-Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer and DTS Virtual: X - Black
Realize immersive room-filling sound from your TV with this LG 3.1-channel high-resolution audio soundbar. DTS technology creates a thrilling surround sound experience, while high-resolution audio support ensures a stunning reproduction of sound and music. This LG 3.1-channel high-resolution audio soundbar features optical, USB, HDMI and Bluetooth for convenient connections to all compatible equipment and TVs.
Hello..Is there anyway to make the LG 3.1 SL6Y sound bar turn off. I have tried everything and the OPT continues to stay on but is very dim. The sub woofer is always on, showing a steady green light. Is this just a characteristic of this sound bar.
I assume you mean the display on the soundbar. No, it will always be lit when the sound bar is active, although it should dim to a very low level a few minutes after any change is made to soundbar settings. I don't find it annoying. In my setup (connected using HDMI-ARC) the bar automatically turns off completely when I turn off the TV.
The light on the back of the subwoofer is green when it is Bluetooth connected to the main soundbar and red when it is not, so when soundbar is off it will be red.
When soundbar is turned on it takes a few seconds for it to re-link to the subwoofer, so bass doesn't come on immediately. Since light is on the back of the subwoofer I don't see why it should be a problem.
If your bar is staying on even when TV is off you need to use a different connection method, like HDMI-ARC. Or maybe it only connects properly with LG TVs.
