The only thread worth visiting here.
One of the rules is that we can't talk about dota.
I don't even know anymore...

Pretty sure we have had mods in here talking about dota before and told us it was okay to some extent.

Nice community

torte i just bought a 65in over the holidays so i can give some insight into this topic

4k won't be relevant until 2-3 years later, and even at that point it might not be relevant
blurays don't even have enough capacity and a regular 4k uhd movie would be around 40-50gb, so if you're trying to stream something in that definition you typically don't even have the bandwidth to support it. also there's compression when you stream a video so you'll have to deal with things like artifacting; basically, the technology simply isn't there yet.
afaik i think netflix, amazon, directv, and yt all offer limited uhd content.

if you choose to play movies from a hdd to your uhd tv and you only have 1080p content, then the tv is just going to upscale the content. it's kinda like attempting to convert a v0 or 320kbps into lossless flac - you can't add definition to stuff that simply isn't there in the first place.

anyhow, by the time your uhd 'investment' becomes relevant, there's going to be better options, so I recommend sitting it out and getting a good 1080p, especially since your eyes really can't see the difference at 55" and below.

I noticed there's also a lot of curved tvs choices in your image and I'd recommend staying away from those because the viewing angles on those are awful, unless you're going to be the only one using the tv and sitting directly in front of them.

in terms of brands, samsung and sony make the best, but i think samsung had the best balance of quality/performance to cost.
also, with samsung their quality depends on the size of the tv you buy. their 65"+ models are considered their mid-premium lines, but below that size there's a lot of people complain about 'panel lottery'. basically, not all the displays are made by samsung directly, and they outsource production to companies with arguably poorer quality (inaccurate picture & colors, abnormal artifacting out of the box, luminosity issues, dead pixels, etc etc etc). samsung inhouse panels are best; panasonic, sharp are decent, but if you get one sourced from some chinese company then you're fucked.

http://lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv/compare-reviews.php
i used this extensively in my research, along with some tv buying forum filled with nerds.

also i sourced my tv from amazon, but i checked carefully to make sure the order was fulfilled by amazon. didn't have a problem but your experience may be different.

Hello Teddy! This is Gosi from the teamliquid community Liquiddota.com - the dota 2 community for teamliquid.net. I've been watching your posts closely for a while now and seeing you reach out to us like this reminded me of why I adore you so much Teddy. I remember the first time seeing you post on the forums, back in the old days of teamliquid.net Dota GD thread. You were so smart and funny with this aura of kindness. When I bookmarked your profile so I could F5 your post history and read your text on the forum to get to know you better everything in my life became better. My diet changed, my dating life became better when I just pictured Teddy from Germany sitting across me instead of whoever it was in real life, my dota play became a lot better too. In fact it became so good that one day last summer we got matched up against each other and I even won!! I won dota against my idol C9.TEddy it was really a great moment for me.

When ESL Frankfurt came by I went down to Commerzbank-Arena to meet you. I asked people if they knew Teddy from Germany but no one knew. My heart shattered into one million pieces when I didn't get to see You. The emotions inside me turned into this dark void of hatred just waiting to get released from my body. When I got back home and saw your great post-ESL Frankfurt blog with pictures of your beautiful body it was like love at first sight again and all the negatives turned into positives.

See you soon.

I feel this is exactly the kind of posting the staff wants to see.
I hope I'll never have to read such a thing again.

People have to understand that not every user uses this thread.

Posting news here demotivates users to check out the thread with that piece of news. Or even worse, that thread not being made.

If posting news here was allowed, Liquiddota would start to converge too much into this thread. Eventually LD would just be this thread. Saw it happen to other foruns.
