Cell phone carriers
Indeed! I am clinging to my Verizon unlimited account, and sometimes use it to stream Tidal at meets/shows for days on end. I've used 10GB in a weekend doing just that! [emoji6] T-Mo has unlimited streaming for Tidal/Spotify/Netflix/etc. **BRENT**

Ipod Touch / Iphone
Which carrier is your niece on? There are some android options that are decent at 200$. http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-5x-project-fi-best-199-android-phone-you-can-get https://oneplus.net/x Neither are going to be flagship phones, but they are both newer than a 2013 iPhone, and I'm sure the battery life is going to be better. For you, I'd probably wait for the iPhone 7, then keep your 5S as a backup, or trade it in (probably at least 100$) towards the new phone. I don't think you have to worry about an iPhone sitting on a shelf for 10 months, but there is no way I'd pay full retail on a 10 month old phone when it will be reasonably discounted in 2 months, and for the same $$$ you could get a new one. **BRENT**

What are you EATING right now?
"Dill crema" on the trout. But would have been better with gravy. **BRENT**

What are you EATING right now?
Brunch with an old friend today. Spent a couple hours over 4 courses catching up on the past 10-15 years. Award Winning Wings Shawn was torn between the biscuit and gravy and the trout, so I said to go with the trout and we'd have Biscuit and Gravy for 2nd appetizer NC Rainbow Trout for my friend Chicken and Waffles Chocolate and Caramel Cheesecake Not pictured: 6 mimosas and an order of bacon. **BRENT**

2016 - Which windows laptop to get
I'd probably stay away from the cheaper Core-M3 one, but i7/8GB should be fine for the other stuff you want to do. **BRENT**

2016 - Which windows laptop to get
The Tkam is wise; either of those suggestions would work incredibly well. I'd probably go XPS 13 or 15, because most of my laptoping is NOT at a desk. I have an HP Pavilion X2 for my work rig, and it's a budget windows tablet/PC, but there is no way I could handle that form factor as an only machine. FWIW, I'm on an i7 ultrabook with a late 2012 build date, and if it just had a proper amount of ram, it would still be fantastic. As it stands (with 4GB) I have 50+ Chrome tabs open, along with Steam, and a few other things. I've even done some light gaming on this. 1080p touchscreen is fantastic on this size, but if you go for a 15, do 4k. Oh, if you're going to be doing rounds and whatnot and having it, definitely go SP4. If it's more classroom/after school/main laptop, XPS. **BRENT**

And now what did you do TODAY?
On the bright side, Chris, my biscuit was delicious. Get better. **BRENT**

Get your game on!
Sounds like you need a 1080. I haven't noticed any issues in quite a while, since the first few days of playing with it. The last couple long sessions I've had have been artifact free, or at least artifact-unobtrusive. **BRENT**

I'm supposed to give Rift back to buddy tonight, but I'm going to see about delaying that til tomorrow so we can maybe play some DR tonight. **BRENT**

Heh. All my stuff will show up in Xavier's account as well. Perhaps I should just get it on his handle and be like "You're grounded!" **BRENT**

I'm down for some drinking heavily and KF2 this weekend. When is the VR version coming out? I have this Rift and want to use it. **BRENT**

Nice, Chris. Do you have a good, accurate pressure gauge? You should get one. Also, IR thermometer to get temps. Also, bring someone to record all of this in a huge spreadsheet with ambient temps, surface temps, tire temps, etc. Bring a water sprayer to spray the tires down. Also, make sure the guy with the computer is wearing a lab coat. **BRENT**

HC Bike/Cycling Thread
Did 17.6 in a group ride last night. Was within 20 seconds of the last time I did it. I think I need some aero wheels and Shimano 9100 to drop me a minute. **BRENT**
