100% nailed it. I was a big fan of Fire tablets until  I realized just how bad their hardware was.

The absolute best cheapo tablets are the Walmart Onn tablets. Build quality is surprisingly good on them. Fire tablets are slow AF.

I graduated in 1985. 99 Luftballons charted up to #27 on the Billboard Top 40, and played ALL summer long in ‘84. It was kind of funny listening to Casey Kasem try to pronounce “Nena”.

Because he’s an actual journalist and not a blogger, duh.

And this is why we don’t buy those kinds of cars. Or anything Chrysler adjacent for that matter.

Literally no one. All copy editing went out the door years ago, and it’s a shame. I mean, at least they could read each other’s stuff before posting, but that seems a shore to far as well.

Me too. And sadly, most of them are just normal, nice folks.

These idiots. They have no real ideas, no platform, no path forward. All they can do is pull third grader level bullsh*t and whine when they’re held accountable for anything.

For the record, it’s a 1080p projector with an included 5W speaker (that is oddly referred to as a ‘woofer’ in Samsung’s kinda lazy marketing info). No real info on their marketing site on other audio out options, so I’m guessing you’d want to use an HDMI breakout box to redirect the audio to a receiver if you’re…

I don’t mean to be a dick here Joe, but couldn’t you at least include some specs on this thing? LED, DLP, etc.? Resolution? Lumens? Short throw? Did you review this in person? Etc. I mean, if the response is “just click on the link”, well, I did click on the link. Your link. That purports to some sort of informative…

100% this is the death knell of hardware. It’s true that there are still a significant amount of bandwidth availability to overcome, but that’s mostly in rural America now. I live in the countryside of Indiana and just got Gigabit fiber, so those barriers are coming down fast, and new Federal legislation and funding…

It’s gonna be an either-or situation for a while with some folks owning a console and some not. But the future is def going into the “not” direction.

Oh lord, me too!! That sanctimonious shithead can just retire with a giant Verizon logo on his pajamas.

All of this. Very well stated. It ain’t there yet, but it’s coming, and there are now more Americans with decent bandwidth than not.

I don’t have a lot to add about the Star Citizen that hasn’t already been said quite well by my fellow commentariat, but I would like to suggest that if you’re gonna try and sit at the cool kids table by saying something like “my ageing SX33 personal computer”, that you at least get the nomenclature correct. There was…

That’s insane, I had no idea that Abigail Disney was the chair of the Shamrock fund that had purchased Swift’s catalogue. Thanks for that!

On another note, I absolutely respect the hell out of Abigail Disney. She’s ferocious in her criticism of the ultra wealthy, and really puts her own money where her mouth is.

That ain’t ever, never, ever gonna happen. It’s been at trend for literal decades now, but even semi-popular blogs like this one all the rest of them in the former Gawkerverse have abandoned semi-capable editors and proof readers some time ago as not being necessary. It’s quite annoying.

So true. This show really doesn’t work with contented women just moving from one day to the next. Carrie has to be involved in a variety of relationships, and that just isn’t possible if Big is a part of her daily life.

 A perfect reduction. You should be writing these stories for Kotaku instead. I’d hire ya.

There were very few American teenagers fighting in WW2. I think you’re confusing it with the conflict in Vietnam. I wouldn’t say anything, but you make it such an odd focus in your lead paragraph (“A bunch of barely-trained teenagers are thrown into a situation beyond their comprehension, trying not to be killed by…
