My Boss Fired Me… Then Called Me Back

So, this happened last summer… and I still can’t believe it. I had been working at this small electronics store for about a year. Nothing fancy… just selling headphones, chargers, TVs… normal retail stuff. My manager, Dave, was one of those guys who loved acting important. One afternoon, the store was packed… people everywhere, phones ringing, customers asking questions all at once. I wa...

Anyone got the same box?

I recently bought from a local electronics store in our region, but when I got the item this is the box. I did some research already and I never saw the same box from another users. I don't want to open and remove the package seal yet coz I might just return it.

Remember Junko Furuta for who she was, not just what happened. In 1988 she was abducted and held captive for 40 days, where she was brutally abused and killed. This tribute shares facts about her life and who she was remember the person, not just the tragedy.

Junko Furuta was known as a kind, polite, and hardworking girl who was loved by her classmates and teachers. She lived in Misato, Japan with her parents and brothers and had a close, supportive family. At school she was a strong student with good grades and nearly perfect attendance, and she was known for being friendly and respectful to everyone she met.  Junko enjoyed simple, creative hobbi...

“Whoops! Got an Itch!” (Looking for a clip or GIF)

Does anyone have or know where I can find a video clip or gif of Homer stopping to scratch his ass in front of a display TV when the family go shopping at an electronics store, and all the TVs in the shop are displaying a close-up of Homer’s ass-scratching? I can’t even remember what episode it was (except it was in the later seasons, around 2000s?) but I haven’t had any luck searching You...

Deciding between M5 MacBook Air and M2 Pro MacBook Pro

Hey all, Recently I've been debating moving to Mac from PC, but I have no clue what model to get. My workload is usually *very* light (browsing, music, basic audio editing, watching movies, so nothing too much) and I don't really multitask. With that in mind, I found two laptops under my preferred budget that I couldn't decide between: \- **MacBook Air M5** (13-inch, 16/512GB), brand new = *...

Which mount is better? Celestron Evolution 9.25 or CGEM II

The obvious answer is CGEM II. Right now Bestbuy (yes the electronics store) has the 9.25 Evolution on sale for $2500 and the 9.25 on a CGEM II mount for $3000. Technically, the CGEM II model is better technically and better for AP as it's a polar mount. however beyond basic pictures, i personally just want to look through the scope and look at things. For $500 less, i get a built in battery ...

Are these good prices for Samsung NVME SSDs?

Hey y’all, I stopped by my electronics store and saw these Samsung 990 Pros on sale. 2 TB - $106.46 1 TB - $47.46 These seem like great prices for today? Just wanted to make sure I’m not missing anything before I pull the trigger. Thanks for the help! EDIT: I won’t be back as soon as I’d like, but when I get the chance, I’ll try and buy as many as they’ll let me. Thanks everyone fo...

Today I did something I hadn’t done in twenty years

Bought an UMD and watched it on the plane a few hours later. I bought a psp 1000 at launch and really enjoyed those few years where you could walk into an airport electronics store and pick a movie for the flight. Did kinda the same thing today, had my psp charged and ready for travel when I randomly spotted this umd in a second hand store, and just got the urge to buy it 🎬

Worst Purchase - cursed electronics store

A major nationwide electronics chain (Let's call them Tikka Masala) is falsely claiming my independent electronics business is selling fraudulent products.

I run an independent electronics store in England. Think TVs, fridges, computers, washing machines etc. About 4 weeks ago I started getting reviews on TrustPilot and Google from people who wrote warnings that they had been told my shop was fraudulent and "not even based in the UK." So, I reached out to a few of them. One replied and told me that a major nationwide chain told her to avo...

Micro-USB port broke off my RetroTINK-2X Pro — looking for repair options

Hi all, I purchased my RetroTINK-2X Pro several years ago and absolutely loved using it. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to use it for about a year. The micro-USB power port partially broke off the board and needs to be soldered back on (pictured). I don’t have any soldering experience and understand this isn’t really a beginner-level repair, so I’m worried I might permanently damage ...

Sensitive Eyes with S26U

I was at an electronics store today and spent 15 minutes trying out the S26U, copying my screen settings from my S23. I have sensitive eyes. Despite wearing glasses with a blue-light filter, I had eye pain after 15 minutes. I did perceive the screen as extremely sharp. I actually wanted to buy an S26U because I really like it. But now I’ll probably go with the S25U instead because I’m worried...

Switch 2 in Japan ❌

Foreigner(American) living in Japan here. Buying a Switch 2 was… disheartening to say the least I didn’t realize Japan sells a special Japanese-language Switch 2 that basically locks you into the Japan’s Nintendo “Ecosystem” The console only works with Japanese Nintendo accounts, and the eShop requires Japanese payment methods. Even if you change your account region to Japan, it still ...

For those who didn’t understand my Neo post, Neo screen vs Air screen:

For all complaining about my Neo having a bad screen, it was just a bad picture taking on my side. Over exposed low light cranked up brightness. So behold some new bad pictures Neo vs Air while gaming. So if the Neo has a bad screen what about the Air?! Just do your own research please and don’t believe me a random reddit poster on his blue eyes. (Don’t have blue eyes..) Just check both at...

Corsair mm pro control mousepad

This is easily the worst mousepad I have ever used. I bought the Corsair MM Pro Control because I wanted a clean gray mousepad that looked good with my setup and I expected it to be high quality since the last Corsair mousepad I owned had a much better surface. Instead, the quality has been extremely disappointing. The side stitching is already fraying, which should not be happening on a “premiu...

Wasted hours scrolling "deals" until I perfected a 3-step process for finding legit savings 💸 (Saved $125 on home goods this week)

You know that feeling when you see a "50% off!" banner, get all excited, and then realize the item was only 10% cheaper a week ago? Or worse, you find it for less *without* a sale at a different store? Yeah, I've been there. Too many times. It's frustrating to sort through the noise, especially when brands inflate original prices just to make a "deal" look better. I've spent a...
