I purchased my first Panasonic OLED TC-65EZ1000C for my living room home theatre when I moved into my new place in December and loved that the OLED the picture was view-able from all angles without the colours fading that I decided to replace the Sony LCD 4K 65" in my bedroom with another of these beauties. It was just installed this morning...

Bought the Peak Design Slide Summit today. I like it but other than the anchors which are very clever, it doesn't feel as comfortable or as easy to adjust as the Luma Labs cinch which I bought in 2012.

I use the black rapid one. It's comfortable enough, but any strap with a Nikon D750 and 200-500mm combo is going to hurt after awhile! I need a shirper.

This has to be my last Lego build for awhile, because if it isn't then I'm going to end up in the poor house. :Do_O However, I couldn't resist pulling the trigger, for the detail that Lego has put into the Assembly Square modular build is very, very impressive.

Got a Pixel 2 XL for my business line and I must say it’s the first Android phone I’m completely satisfied with. Best of both worlds, I also picked up a Google home, chrome cast and Philips Hue lighting/light stripes...going to try this smart home thing.

nice. I want a pixel 2 just to play around with, but it's too expensive now to buy one just for that. is the XL still having those display issues?

I haven’t noticed anything about it although it’s not as vibrant as my iPhone X but I don’t mind it at all. There’s a saturated option to make the screen pop more like a Samsung phone but I’m happy with “natural” google tried. I really don’t notice the blue shift at angles at all or maybe they toned it better for the later models.

Black Rapid and Sypder are my go to brands. BR for the strap, Spyder for the holsters. I will swear by them until the day I die.
 
Just read up on them. Those things aren't cheap are they?
no it is too expensive really but I don't own a car so i will use it a lot. I thought about a bike but my lungs are not great and storage is a issue and maintenance is a pain. it saves me a lot of time and I can run arenas while at work I i did not have time for before. go to places for lunch that took too much time on the bus. this was my first scooter great for smooth roads and no rain. it is almost as fast and climbs hills almost as well and has sony batteries. but on rough surfaces it is uncomfortable.https://smile.amazon.com/Glion-Fold...4pQvW9uL&preST=_SX300_SL1500_QL50_&dpSrc=srch
 
I've wanted a globe with black water for YEARS and I figured I basically stumbled across the holy grail today at Home Goods of all places. Not only does it have black water, but the it's glossy (fancy), the countries are all silver (nice and modern, seen some black water ones with traditional pastel blue/yellow/orange/etc. countries), the size is perfect (around 12"-13" diameter I'd say), and the stand is nice and modern. So I grab it, delighted, walk through the store and spot an equally gorgeous silver one somewhere else...so I grabbed 'em both, best $80 I've spent in a good while. Such a lame purchase but so stoked. Silver one for my home office, black one for our downstairs living room where we have an antiqued white painted fireplace flanked with two black accent walls (and light gray carpet/walls with white trim and black leather couch so perfect match):

Welp there I was today, back at the same store, this time looking for trinkets to place on a newly installed shelf above my desk. As I'm walking through the store for a final lap, nearly done, I spot a woman coming out of the back room with a large rack of trinkets. I creeped the trinkets from afar for about 3 seconds before spotting this new globe, and I immediately went over to her and plucked it off the rack like a vulture, not five feet out of the back room:
