General Discussion / Re: Cobra Kai Season 6

So much cheese but it was good cheese. Johnny's story was ultimately handled really well and I'm glad it came back to him as the main character for the last season. William Zabka deserves more recognition for his role in Cobra Kai.

LOL... you know, that is a good call out.  I liked that as well.  It has been so long since season 1, I have sort-of forgot the story was more focused on Johnny.  It was cool the focus went back as well.  It was hard to see the Dojo's separate, but they also respectfully separate and utilize each other... which is also a good message --> Everyone has an importance and is needed.

And of course, how can you not love the final fight between Kreese and Silver on the boat?!

LOL!!      There was no better ending to Cobra Kai.  Honestly, there is no other way they could end it as well.  However, what do you think are the chances that SOMEONE survived?  Cobra Kai never dies.

Holy crap @CreepinDeth I missed that... I've been under a lot with the new job etc and have not been able to keep up on everything.  I didn't even realize, at first, there was a massive RAM price increase. 

Sounds like they picked the WORST time to exit the market segment.  Just a heads up, your link is not working. 

I haven't built since 2013... and looks like I won't any time soon.  I know @SpartanEvolved just built.  GPU prices were stupid insane when he was telling me about it LOL     I'm like.... No

Was a pretty good season. They almost lost me after season 4. Season 1 had no business being as good as it was. It actually made me subscribe to YouTube Red just so that I could watch it.

lol and my bad. 

lol, It's all good.  It's madness though.

Unlike GPUs, I think RAM has a greater chance of dropping back.

Yeah, about that...

Micron to exit consumer memory business amid global supply shortage

This is a massive hit to consumer supply. This company supplies RAM chips to so many companies and is shutting down their Crucial brand. A brand that has been around for 30 years just so that they can solely supply to AI companies. So no more Crucial RAM and SSDs.

We're doomed.

We really liked it as well.  It's like ... how many times can Johnny and Daniel turn on each other? lol.   Season 6... it's like every other episode.

BTW... you're 100% right @targetrasp, Karate Kid Legends was great!   We absolutely loved that movie.  Ben Wang does well as Li Fong... and Ralph / Jackie Chan don't disappoint.  It will be cool to see where this goes.  We probably need to have a Karate Kid Legends topic.

Yeah... media PCs were a thing from like 2007-2010... and they seem to have resurged!  I knew A LOT of people back then that did this to share media in their house.

I had all my music ripped at one point (from my CDs) to a computer when @Grindspine and I would jam out on guitar.  It was very handy. 

I'm curious how Jellyfin works as well.  @retro junkie -- We've been consistently adding to our physical collection as well.  I recently got several collectors edition steel books of Disney+ series. More to come on this.  we also go the Blu-ray version of Avatar the Last Airbender series for $20-25.   We also ended up with the Season 1 of Wednesday for $10 Blu-ray and Monk complete series DVD set for $30ish

Remember? I'm trying to forget, lol. These tech bro CEOs won't let me.

LOL @CreepinDeth I know... lol and my bad.   

You're 100% correct though... the ram increases will translate to higher and higher GPU costs.  I'm hoping ram prices do drop back down.   Unlike GPUs, I think RAM has a greater chance of dropping back.

GPUs, however, probably will never drop back down unless there's a major crash in the computer hardware department.  I'm glad I upgraded my laptop when I did.  I might sell my ram as well LOL.  Right now, it seems like laptops might be the way to go for "cheaper" gaming.  Truth be told, I haven't build a computer since 2013

Let me know how JellyFin works out for you. I've been looking for a similar solution and would love to hear about it.

Will do! I temporarily set up Kodi on my PC and so far, my rips are playing wonderfully. Even the 4K rips. Which is what I was wondering since it's an old Dell optiplex from 2011/2012. It's not exactly a high-end PC.

Next up, see if I can stream to my Roku's with Jellyfin.
