kinda mad though that i paid $60 for literal shit pieces of trash in L and ML, could have just waited it out til MAVERIX

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:28 (twelve years ago)

i dont think i ever paid of any of them because i am an outlaw

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:32 (twelve years ago)

i remember when i bought Tiger for like $80 or something absurd and people would ask me for the DVD because apple never bothered with anything as barbaric as a 'product key'

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:33 (twelve years ago)

I doubt even comes close to 1% of sales tbh.

stet, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:34 (twelve years ago)

def a rounding error

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:35 (twelve years ago)

actually causes apple to lose money

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:35 (twelve years ago)

I don't understand the desktop wallpapers thing. I have a Mac that started with 10.7 and offers Aqua wallpapers from the tiger days, while another Mac that started with 10.6 only offers one folder. Something weird afoot.

stet, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 16:36 (twelve years ago)

i just use cool pictures for my wallpaper, right now i have one of a praying mantis

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 18:54 (twelve years ago)

its 51" im not sure what 240hz, its def not state of the art super high end, its the one here that the wirecutter recommends as the best $500 tv http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/the-best-500-tv

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 18:56 (twelve years ago)

sick

samsung tvs are great

240hz is a gimmick, don't worry about it

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 18:59 (twelve years ago)

ok phew

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:01 (twelve years ago)

is it 4K

cozen, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:01 (twelve years ago)

This set isn’t 1080p. No big deal. (Plus, who actually needs 1080p?)

The PN51F4500 has a resolution of 1,024 x 768. Yes, that is HD. And yes, that is also 16×9 (the pixels are more rectangular). The question that matters: can you see individual pixels from a normal seating distance? While reviewing the Samsung, I sat roughly 8 feet away. I have 20/15 vision, and I couldn’t see pixels. I could see, along some diagonal white lettering, some jagged steps. I doubt most people would notice this unless they were looking for it. From about 6½ feet away, I started to see some noise, and I could just make out the pixel structure in bright images. If you’re sitting this close to your TV, I recommend checking out one of our step-up 1080p options mentioned at the end.

Check your seating distance. For most people, it’s around 9-10 feet. If this is the case, you’d be hard pressed to notice the difference between this and a 1080p TV of the same size. Not once did the image look “soft” to me, and I’ve been watching/reviewing 1080p displays of all sizes since their first availability. The PN51F4500 looked more detailed than the TC-P50X60, possibly due to better processing, which leads us to…

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:03 (twelve years ago)

it's not 1080p? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:04 (twelve years ago)

(Plus, who actually needs 1080p?)

EVERYONE

Bitch Fantastic (DJP), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:04 (twelve years ago)

def not my dad who cant really see things anyway

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:05 (twelve years ago)

well okay that's a fair point

Bitch Fantastic (DJP), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:05 (twelve years ago)

o but it's actually a plasma, a $500 plasma, wow

wow

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:06 (twelve years ago)

not 1080p? they still make those?

socki (s1ocki), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:08 (twelve years ago)

dont have time to read through this thread but has anyone noted how the mac pro looks just like a fleshlight?

max, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:28 (twelve years ago)

hahaha if you're not kidding, then yes

markers, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:33 (twelve years ago)

plasma is sweet, you can't really see pixels w/plasma so much anyway

mh, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:01 (twelve years ago)

plasma is the most common matter in the universe so i feel like this tv is more chill and at one with things

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:17 (twelve years ago)

why do tvs even have to have pixels anyway, it feels kind of uptight and ambitious trying to make all these little dots do something, why not just make a picture you know

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:18 (twelve years ago)

just make a cathode ray nbd

乒乓, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:21 (twelve years ago)

tubes seem more wholistic

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:22 (twelve years ago)

welcome to my plasma flux mission, the plasma is the retina of the mind

mh, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:27 (twelve years ago)

the suggestion of a tv is all you need

lag∞n, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:29 (twelve years ago)

or just like...

knowing you're sitting somwhere where the broadcast signal is in the air
