@danackerman Do you have a black friday reasonable cost gaming pc reco?

@phsyborg I like it, but I've always preferred more matte displays. I'd say it's not a must-have, but I personally like it -- try to see it in person side by side with the standard display.

@danackerman How does the nano texture feel like after few days of use? I’m still in two minds, given the extra cost and slightly washed out display.

I'm a pretty jaded laptop reviewer, but you really need to see the nano texture screen on the new M4 MacBook Pro in person -- it's amazing. Hands-on coming up, in the meantime, go check it out in-person. microcenter.com/product/688243…

My top three Black Friday suggestions: 1. 55-inch OLED (!) from Sansui (LG panel), $599: microcenter.com/product/682796… 2. New M4 Mac Mini is already discounted to $499: microcenter.com/product/688173… 3. AMD 7600X3D bundle, $399: microcenter.com/product/500697…

When you forget you have a game on your Steam wishlist called "Everything." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Have tried giving ChatGPT (or a similar AI that remembers things about you) the prompt: "Based on what you know about me, draw a picture of what you think my current life looks like?" Here's what I got, which is a generous interpretation, but thematically close...

Why yes, @microcenter does indeed have Pumpkin Spice 3D printer filament…

I can barely drive, so you should be impressed I was able to successfully pilot this flight sim rig while talking to the camera about Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and the flight sim demo stations landing this week at select @MicroCenter stores. youtube.com/shorts/qgi69Ez…
