    Possible to get huge healthcare bills even with insurance?

    I agree with fuzzy, I'm pretty sure it's possible. https://www.healthcare.gov/glossary/out-of-pocket-maximum-limit/ Most plans would have a separate / higher out-of-pocket maximum for out-of-network care, but I don't think it's a requirement.

    Surface Pro 3 Restore

    I don't have a Surface, but I do have other Windows tablets, and I also had difficulties with Reset My PC after upgrading Windows. If you've already upgraded to Windows 10, you should be able to use this tool to create install media, so you can do a fresh install...

    Who's ready for the Amazon 20th anniversary sale? [July 15th]

    I actually got that (at $599). The only way I knew about it was from a SlickDeals thread that had been posted earlier in the day, though. So I had the actual product page open, refreshed at the right time, and the Lightning Deal price showed up. I don't think it was ever in the Upcoming list.

    Does the Galaxy Note S-Pen work with all apps?

    I have the Galaxy Note 4 (with Android 4.4), and I don't use the stylus much, but: - In the S-Pen options, if you turn on "Direct pen input", a lot of text fields in Android apps can accept handwriting input (you hover over the text field with the S-Pen, you see an icon pop up over the text...

    2012 Nexus 7 Updated to lollipop but still looks like Kitkat?

    What happens exactly, when you try to bring up Google Now? (Swipe up from the bottom of the screen, for a Nexus device). There's an opt in that you have to do once. Also, do you have a Google account set up in Settings > Accounts? If so, then you could open the Play Store app to make sure all...

    Dying Light - new zombie game

    I definitely enjoyed the game overall. According to Steam, I've been playing for 35 hours, and I'm at 93% completion now (about to go into the game finale). I've done a decent number of side quests, but definitely not all of them. For the most part, the parkour works very well (as long as you...

    HP Stream 7" Tablet for $79, 1 year of Office 365, Signature Edition so no Junkware!

    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/hpstream/ I don't think this always applied for the HP Stream 7, they might have changed it recently. It's a bit of a hassle to get (you have to change around some security settings in Internet Explorer, and I had to try a couple times). But I did redeem it...

    Odd HP Stream 7 issue

    As mentioned, Sleep would cause downloads to be cancelled in a browser like Chrome. So the closest thing would be: - Disable Sleep (Control Panel > Power Options) - Configure the display to turn off after some time: Power Options, Change Plan Settings, Change Advanced Power Settings, expand...

    Dying Light - new zombie game

    If anyone is considering getting it, there's $15 off right now on GMG: https://twitter.com/GreenManGaming/status/559833717246787584 I'm considering it - I liked Dead Island, and there's rudimentary Oculus Rift support if you change a config file (though the HUD isn't readable then). Hopefully...

    Deal - Straight Talk Offering $20 off monthly service

    Thanks. I was considering switching to the $30 TMobile plan, but I'll grab five of these instead and keep the plan a bit longer, I think. Edit: $140.67 for five from TX (including tax), so $28.13 per month - the auto-refill I've been doing is $50.38 with taxes + fees, so definitely a good...

    HP Stream 7 Review

    Good review. I got one a couple weeks ago also and agree with pretty much all of your points. It's a nice tablet, if you have a reason for a small portable device running full Windows (old Windows games are a good example). If you just want to surf and use Facebook I'd probably still pick a...

    Amazon Fire TV Stick

    I was hoping that Miracast would work from my HP Stream 7 (Windows 8.1 tablet) to the Fire Stick, but no luck. Maybe a software update will fix it at some point. (If you Google around, a lot of people have the same issue - for example, Surface Pro 3 Miracast to Fire Stick doesn't work either)...

    HP Stream 7 - Full x86 Windows 8.1 7" Tablet $99

    To followup: If you want to charge and use USB peripherals at the same time, the approach outlined on that blog post does work. I ordered the cables mentioned at that blog post through DXSoul - the one with the Charge/ Data switch is pretty finicky though (fairly hard to flip it to the other...

    Win8.1 tablet $59.99 @ Microcenter B&M

    I got the HP Stream 7 recently (and it has the same CPU and resolution as the TW700, it looks like). It can run old games fine - I tried Unreal Tournament and got >60FPS pretty easily. (By default it was really choppy in Direct3D, but using the UTGLR drivers (Direct3D or OpenGL) it was much...

    Google Cardboard

    Same, I got mine and put it together about a week ago, with a Nexus 5. The Google Cardboard app is kinda cool (and the magnet works fine for selection / actions in the app). I haven't really searched for the other apps yet - but one thing I discovered, some streams / videos of Oculus Rift...

    Is AUDIO TECHNICA headphones worth it ?

    I have a different Audio Technica model (ATH-M30) and I definitely like them. Well made too - got them mid 2008, and they still work great (though the earcup foam isn't in great shape, 5 years later).

    Oculus Rift

    Yep SDK 0.4.2 mostly fixes chromatic aberration, Elite Dangerous is still using the older 0.3 SDK. The DK2 is definitely still early in the software stages. I think in a month or two the SDK should be better (e.g. more demos should work in Direct-To-HMD mode), and more games will be using the...

    Oculus Rift - Development Kit 2

    Palmer (Oculus creator) has been responding to some posts on Reddit, there's a little interesting info there - http://www.reddit.com/user/palmerluckey I'm curious to see whatever news they announce for content soon. There's been a fair number of Kickstarters lately for games claiming to support...

    Oculus Rift - Development Kit 2

    Facebook's interest in Oculus is a bit unexpected but I think it makes sense. If you take the userbase of Facebook, and cross it with Oculus and an app similar to Second Life, then you have a lot more people potentially interested in VR / socializing in VR. Casual gaming / advertising / etc. can...

    Oculus Rift - Development Kit 2

    I would go with #1 (immersive game changer). There'e a lot of demos for Oculus with a really impressive sense of scale. Half Life 2 is pretty good at that (look up at towering buildings; see the Citadel in the distance but it still looks giant). And there are some cool solar system demos that...

    Oculus Rift - Development Kit 2

    The official Nexus 5 thread.

    Liking the phone so far. Took it on vacation with me a few days - was worried about running out of battery since I'd be away from a charger for a full 12 hour day, but was never really close to running out of battery (I bought an external battery pack but didn't need it at all). I was especially...

    Do you like Sriracha hot sauce? If so, come in and read about its creator/CEO

    I'm a big fan of Big John's Jerky too, I think I heard about it on this forum originally. I tried both the Sriracha and Fiery Sriracha (which might be becoming the default variation, based on the email newsletters they send out). Both are very good, probably my favorite flavors from them. Before...

Origin keys for everything too. So with $1 you can choose which platform you want...

    Got my Oculus VR today

    Half Life 2 is a lot of fun in the Rift, but the screen door effect + motion blur are a bit of a drag. The resolution isn't overall a big deal, but it's a bit annoying how hard it is to read text in the Rift right now. Overall though it's a lot of fun to play with (got mine last Friday, and was...

    They've been adding Oculus Rift / VR support to their HL2 Source games recently. There's probably other changes too though.
