I got mine from an exclusive invite. If you have PS account.. make sure you're getting emails and promotions from them. Hopefully they send you an exclusive invite to purchase a PS5.
Never heard of that method. I'll have to check it out.

Yeah, it's through their PlayStation direct service. Just make sure it's not a scam. Some people are making phony websites to trick others into giving them their credit card information.

I think they're doing this.. to curb scalpers.

You're right, you do have to be very careful with buying expensive high items. Speaking of PS5, they will be revealing more about the new Ratchet and Clank game soon. Looks great so far.

Yeah, when I first got the email I did a lot of research to make sure it wasn't a scam. Although really though.. I just signed into my PS account and then afterwards clicked on the link.. and sure enough I was already signed in.

A friend at work told me to look at the new trailer. Really looking forward to playing that game.

It's nice when things work out that way. For me Ratchet and Clank is my most anticipated game that they've shown off. There's some PS4 games I'm waiting on PS5 for also since the short loading times will make it a better experience.

Yeah, I'll still be playing PS4 games for a while. I'm excited for all the upgraded FPS boosts they are giving PS4 games.

Tried 120 FPS on Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2. Honestly... I personally didn't know that much of a difference. Of course everyone's brain is different.

Unless a game has a really low FPS I don't notice it. Then again, I've never tried a 120 FPS so maybe I might if I paid super close attention.

Yeah. Just make sure you have a TV capable of it.

I can notice 60 fps over 30 fps easily. Although 60 fps is good enough for me. Tony Hawk is 4k in that mode.. but 1080P in 120 FPS mode. Which isn't worth it IMO.

Today in Judaism, lyar 18, April 30.

Plague among R.Akiva's disciples ends (cirka 120CE).

In the weeks between Passover and Shavout,
a plague decimated 24,000 students of the

great sage Rabbi Akiva---a result , says the Talmud,
of the fact that they "did not respect eachother."

Just recieved an E-Mail, disaster at Meron during Lag B'Omer celebration, 45 dead, 150 injured.

From what I can make of it, I do not follow news.

Similar threads are posted in other sub0forums on this site, and I think this type of a thread is perfect for this sub-forum.

What is currently on my mind? Thinking I should finish up the 3rd season of Cobra Kai tonight. The show is good thus far, nothing ground breaking but it's competent and does the job. Ironically I've never seen any of the Karate Kid films.
Wondering how to spend Friday night with my spouse now I have limited my weekend alcohol intake by 70%.
Would normally be either debating / singing/ dancing by now, instead we are both being silent on our iPads..
Sobriety is quiet and a bit boring.

I understand the struggle.

Thankfully the brain readjusts in time. At least for me.

By Friday night we're usually so tired that watching something on TV together is about as exciting as it gets.

But it's Saturday morning here now, and I'm wondering how to fit in everything I want to do on my one day off!

I am wondering how best to approach the question of the local ministers sharing responsibility for worship in one of the nursing homes. I tend to do the bulk of the "Protestant" nursing home worship locally, but it would be good if the other denominations were willing to take a turn.
