explains the millions of hits per month on the cameras.

That wasnt my intent to imply, but upon rereading you are right to comment about it because I can see how it can be misconstrued as implying best buy stole something.

I'm not going to edit my original post though, so your post remains relevant, and because both have already been seen and reacted to by others.

don't forget how many of them are just straight up creep cameras, installed pointing at childrens pools, playgrounds, peoples homes, etc.

That didnt come out until Nov 19, 1998.

I vividly remember the one time I bought something in bestbuy.

September 7th, 1997.

Whoever can guess what I bought based on that date deserves a cookie.

Do exactly as the warranty says, and take it where the warranty says, so you have recourse when stupid shit happens like them stealing your hardware, or not fixing it.

and, most importantly, ignore idiots on the internet. You paid for the warranty, use it. If the products shit, you'll get your moneys worth out of it.

I know I did when I got a dell laptop, for years after i paid like 150 bucks a year for extended warranty.. and I 100% know that dell lost massive amounts of money on that deal, considering how many times they had to send people to where I was located to fix the damn thing, not to mention the multiple just straight full up exchanges they did.

and none of that would have happened if I had been a gonk and taken a screw driver to it and fucked it up worse.

If you have an active warranty, use it for all its worth.

I'm rockin a 6700xt for my gpu :\

I really shouldnt complain, its a great card, it just doesnt have the horse power to chug through the bullshit lack of optimization in Unreal5 based games. especially ones that force some form of raytracing to be on with no toggle.

I did not ever think PC prices would go as crazy as they are now.

but I thank my fucking asscheeks every day that I upgraded my CPU, GPU and RAM right before the shit hit the fan just by pure luck and coincidence.

I still wish I had a better GPU, I had to settle for the one I got cause finances.. but I sure as fuck aint getting anything better for a reasonable price at this rate.

sell 64gb of it today and pay for your entire PC build, plus a new (used) car.

I'm not sayin it doesnt exist, to be clear, but the only phones I've ever seen that had built in radios were, like, asian market phones. Nothing that'd work on my area.

I mean you're obviously being sarcastic.

but why cant phones have a radio receiver? That would be super useful, and something I'd use often.
