I've been running the LG G Stylo. Not high end by any standards, but a nice phablet that does the job with great battery like and included Stylus. LG has done a good job at updating it as well. Even expected to get the Marshmallow update. I do hate the phones without the ability to change the batter...

Ya, I used it before for a game that went cheaper on sale within the time frame. It is a useful feature. Better than Google Play gives you just 2 hours, which counts the time you spend downloading the game. Might spend half of it downloading some larger games.

One thing to note is that some games are cheaper when purchased as a bundle and you might only have one game in said bundle but cannot purchase it because you have one of the games in that bundle. So it may be cheaper to toss your existing game to buy it as a bundle, then get each of the other games...

Recently got a new mattress myself. $400 for a 12" memory foam mattress was awesome. Still kind of weird to get a mattress in a box, but it is amazing. Shopping on Christmas Eve is packed but not too bad. Black Friday is like 100 times worse, just a bunch of crazy people out there. Stores have ...

I think I remember there being a video on this topic in the History Channel Series The Universe. Where a couple created a special suit that connects together for this purpose.

Online shopping only lol Think I have gotten too old to bother with going to stores on Black Friday. Especially when I can get the same deals online. Between the stores offering the same deals online and Amazon price matching almost all of them, seems like a wasted effort. Even the Microsoft Store h...

Unfortunately no one ever really came up with something better. Microsoft abandoned Silverlight for reasons I haven't found yet. But HTML5 isn't just for video, but its expansion has been a little stagnant for games. Flash does need to go though. It is super slow these days and uses a ridiculous amo...

I definitely like the CoolChip fan. Since it something we are likely to see sooner. It will certainly help for laptop cooling.

Anything Doorbuster, I wouldn't count on any chance of getting. Unless you want to one of those people who camp out.

I don't like that the stores creeped into Thanksgiving either.
