Having some fun with "partial subtitles". Those bits of a film not in English without an interpreter, e.g. StarWars - Jabba the Hutt scenes. To get the subtitles I have to go to the menu (Subtitle button is blocked), turn on and off English subtitles. Then I just get them where film needs them.
Else it's producing a nice picture. It's a bit unnerving the detail and colour on first viewing compared to what we had before. And this is just DVD.

Top of the range 55in QLED TV, did my research and decided I didn't want an OLED due to the hassles with screen burn, banding and 30 FPS content being far worse than on a QLED as I suffer from motion sickness in gaming as well as I never use the TV in a dark room which OLEDs are better suited to.

10 meter Led strip light off TikTok shop and a Dish drainer very cheap as a new customer. Lights come and work great Drainer is coming from the continent.

Ok TikTok shop has a lot of tat but some of the stuff looks ok.
I did find out though that you only a get a good price as a new customer. Now here is a work around for that. Just log out of TikTok clean cache then data and open tiktok again. Log in using a facebook account (if you already used this just make a dummy facebook for now) then you become a new TikTok shop customer again and get the good prices. You could by endless air fryers for a tenner each if you wanted too ( until they catch on they are all going to the same address hahaha )
Just done the above to buy a viral Spaceman projector to help me sleep same one is over twice the price on amazon.
If anything catches my eye again I will do it again

RTX 4070TI on Ebuyers Ebay page 12 months credit. Chances are it is an incorrect advert as it is down at £629 this is an £800 + card. Had to take a punt. I have messaged and added a note that if it is wrong as I suspect and a RTX 4070 standard that I want to cancel

Google luck I don't think I would have messaged them as the pic says TI as well as the text, it is more likely just a miss price.

Even the MPN number GV-N407TEAGLE OC-12GD says it's a TI.

yeah but it is all down to what they ship. As I say I put a note on saying I wanted the TI and not the standard and in message so they can not argue really. It is their fault
