I need a better soundbar. Can anyone recommend one?

I've got my 65" C6 set up in my bedroom with my Apple TV streaming device. I bought a JBL Cinema SB595 soundbar, but I think I can do better. It's okay but I don't like the way music sounds with it. What am I missing? Can anyone recommend something better? I don't mind spending more money.

I tried Apple TV and you're all right, it's better than Google Streaming TV!

I'm getting used to my 65" C6, and I'm gonna keep it! I started with Google Streaming TV, but after reading all the comments, I decided to try Apple TV instead. And you all are right! It's so much better! I like interface way better. Much cleaner. It costs more but you also get three months of Apple TV, Apple Music, Apple Fitness, and something else.

I need to protect plants from rabbits. What is everyone using?

We have a lot of rabbits here in the northeast near Boston. They have completely destroyed my hosta plant. I am putting some more plants in the ground and I need to protect from rabbits. What is everyone using? I can get chicken wire at Home Depot. It's not very pretty though. Suggestions? Links appreciated.

Edit: I need fencing. All the other tricks won't work. We've tried. Please provides links to fencing on Amazon or elsewhere. Pics of fencing help as well. Thanks!

Criterion film flashing black when playing on LG C6. What is causing this?

I've got a 65" LG C6. I'm getting used to it. Bit of an adjustment. Last night I watched an Igmar Burgman film on Criterion and loved it. So today I tried to watch another Igmar Burgman film, but now I'm getting some weird black flashes. Like I'm watching and the screen flickers black. I'm not sure why it is doing this. Does anyone have any ideas?

Do I need to say "Yes" I am open to a mediator? Can I say, "No"?

As I am filling out the Interview to file my claim online, I am being asked if I am open to using a mediator. Do I have to select "Yes"? What happens if I select "No"?

I think my case is cut and dry. I am simply asking for a refund. I don't see the point of a mediator.

-----

Are you willing to use a court mediator to try to settle this case?*

Will this work for verifying the Plaintiff's address?

I'm filing for small claims for a Facebook marketplace transaction. When I go to file online, the court is asking me how did I verify the Plaintiff's address. (See the options below.)

I know it is his address because I went to his house to pick up the item. He used a fake Facebook profile but he told me his real name. If I go to Whitepages.com, it tells me his full name and that he is the owner of the property.

Is that enough to verify?

---------

Have you verified the Defendant's address by at least one of the following methods in the last 12 months?*

  • Municipal record
  • Registry of Motor Vehicles
  • Receipt of correspondence (e.g., a letter) from the Defendant with that return address
  • Other verification from Defendant that the address is current
  • None of the above

Criterion movies look awful. Has anyone been able to successfully deal with Stutter/Judder?

I've got my new 65" LG C6. I'm streaming BBC David Attenborough animal shows right now and the picture is great. But when I watch my Criterion films, I'm so disappointed. When watching James Bond "Goldfinger," the stutter/judder was so bad it was intolerable. Other films are barely tolerable. Do I give up and send my C6 back or is there a way to successfully fix this? Are there any other Criterion fans out there who have had any luck with this? I'm currently streaming with a Google TV streamer.

What does movement look slightly jittery on 65" LG C6?

I'm watching some shows on my new 65" C6, and I notice the movement is slightly stuttery. What causes this? Is it a slow internet connection? Any way to fix this?

I ordered a C5 from Amazon and got a C6

I think I saw a few other people say they ended up getting a C6 when they ordered a C5, and here, it's happened to me. I had actually tried to cancel the delivery of my C5 because I saw I could get the C6 for a little more on the partner store, but for some reason, they delivered it today anyhow. My only problem is that I'm a little person and I can't set this up on my own. It's gonna be too heavy for me to pull out of the box. Has anyone been able to unbox this single handedly? I'm just putting it on a stand, no wall mount. UPDATE: A friend came over and we set it up. It is too big and I will probably return it.

EDIT: I ordered this on Amazon, but the seller is listed as "Beach Camera" on the buy page and "Video & Audio Center" after the sell. I don't know who they are. It was kinda weird. Some guy pulled up to my house in a beat up old mini van with the package tied onto the top of the van horizontally, which you are NEVER supposed to do. You always want to transport vertically to avoid damaging the screen. Let's hope it's not damaged! (The carrier was OnTrac.)

What do you do when a friend calls and they sound drunk?

This keeps happening to me. I don't know why. I stopped drinking five years ago. I stopped cold turkey and never looked back. I just didn't like the way I felt when I drank. I didn't like that I looked forward to a glass of wine or a beer every night. Didn't like how I acted when I had too much to drink. I was just so tired and done with it. But as a consequence, I tend to notice when other people drink now. And I have had three old friends call me in recent weeks and they were all drunk. It's like the universe is sending me a message. Just tonight an old classmate calls on the phone. It's 9:30pm, which is late for a social call, particularly at my age.. He's rambling and going on about himself and I keep looking at the time. Finally I say, "Hey Fred, watcha been doing tonight? Did ya have a few drinks earlier." He admits that he did, a few beers he said. And then he starts going on about something else. I'm tired and in bed, so I tell him: "Look Fred, it's getting late for me. Maybe we can chat another time?"

Update: Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments/suggestions. I really like this subreddit. Some smart people here!

How does this end? Watching an old friend destroy himself

New to this subreddit. Thought maybe some of you could offer insight. I reconnected with an old friend recently after 30 some years. Turns out he is now a terrible alcoholic. He's gone through a few wives, can't hold down a job, lost his apartment and is now living in a hotel of sorts. I saw him for a few days at a family reunion of his. I observed him drinking. He goes to the liquor store and buys lots of those mini bottles. Never saw him drinking, but he would often leave the room or walk off from the group. I wondered if he was just drinking the little bottles or he had more stashed away elsewhere? He has been calling me on the phone on occasion, usually when he is drunk, and I assume he is drunk most of the time. I listen for a while, but then I have to go. I know he has been to rehab. His family worries about him. He is 68 years old, and I don't think there is much hope. So my question is, how does this end? Is he just going to keep drinking until he ends up in a hospital? It's all very tragic. You hate to see it, but I'm trying to accept the reality.

Has anyone filed a claim in Small Claims Court? Please help me understand the process

I am getting ready to file a claim (in Massachusetts)against an individual from whom I purchased an item on Facebook Marketplace. I have their name and phone and notes from our conversations. I have written up a statement of claim. Is it recommended to send any type of demand letter or notice that I will be filing a claim against them? Please let me know what I can expect from this whole experience? Thanks

Has anyone compared store bought v. heirloom v. making your own with chili?

I've been making my own yogurt by just using a few tablespoons of store-bought yogurt as a starter. I'm happy with the results. (Prefer pasteurized vs ultra pasteurized for flavor.) Has anyone tried the heirloom culture? Is there a difference in taste? What about making your own starter from scratch with chili peppers? How does that compare?

Timeless vitamin C serum is making my eyes burn. Has anyone else had this problem?

I just started using Timeless. I do not put it anywhere near my eyes; however, my eyes burn when I use it. I've been using it for like four days and it seems to be getting worse. To be clear, I do not put this anywhere near my eyes. I have sensitive skin and the only makeup I wear is lipstick. Does anyone else have this issue with Timeless? Do any of the other VC serums work better?
