[quote]the higher end G series of OLEDs from LG have a 5 year panel warranty. I'm not sure if the C line has it.[/quote] The Gs still have the same problem you see in the picture above. most of the photos on Reddit, AVS forums, etc. are LGs including the G series. They are avoiding burn-in but ...

[quote]Math and feelings are 2 different things, bro.[/quote] Not always. It is possible to assign values to feelings. For example, how much would it be worth it to me to have less stress at work? Would I take a $50k pay cut for less stress or maybe just $5k? How much of a pay cut would I t...

Major? No but it does appear it is still possible but not the only concern. One of the most common problems these days is the middle area of the screen burning out/degrading in output. Very common example you can find all over Reddit, AVSforums, etc. [img]https://www.avforums.com/attachments...

[quote]I am a big proponent of parent's rights. I think a line can be drawn at "mutilation of a 12 year old child's genitals"[/quote] that would be great if it can be done successfully without unforeseen consequences. I think the best route would be make it illegal for doctors to do such th...
