If you’ve spent time researching nice TVs, you know why The Frame always pops up.

The 55-inch model, now under $1,000, has the “Black Friday deal” stamp at Best Buy.

The price of this fan-favorite OLED TV is certainly easier to stomach when it’s over $1,000 off. The C1’s high contrast ratio and pristine blacks make it great for streaming and gaming in dark rooms, plus two more HDMI ports than the B1. And by ditching the two-leg design for one modern central stand, the C1 is the focal point even when turned off.

An 85-inch Sony TV for well under $1,000? That doesn’t happen often. Compared to the slightly-cheaper X80K, the X85K has a higher native contrast ratio that deepens blacks and makes light objects pop — a nice touch in shows with dark shows and movies. It also features HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and Dolby Vision.

Here’s a deal that’s so good, it sounds fake: The 75-inch version of Amazon’s Omni Fire TV is cheaper than the 65-inch one by a long shot — $599.99 compared to $719.99, to be exact. The Omni series is well-reviewed for its bright color from Dolby Vision and easy-to-navigate Fire TV features. Oddly enough, Best Buy is offering this 75-inch version for 36% off while it’s full price at Amazon.

If you’ve paid any amount of attention to fighting game fans, influencers, or players over the past year, you’ll know Project L is the looming presence thundering towards us from the murky future. It’s the elephant in the room in the purest sense, a presence that every new release, every new announcement, and every new development in the genre is measured around.
The folks at Riot Games appear to understand the environment they’re walking into; R&D Projects that end up greenlit and pushed into the forefront. The first ever bit of news we ever saw with Project L revolved around the esteemed and experienced staff that were leading development, a strategy Riot had previously used before with Legends of Runeterra and Valorant, which championed big names in their respective genres. This, as it was obviously intended to do, made every 30+ year old buster with an arcade stick a little hot around the collar. Follow that up with announcements of free-to-play, great netcode, and a 2v2 format, and the pants came off.
But, while Riot may have the crowd with boxed copies of Street Fighter 4 hyped, it is arguably far more important for the long term success of Project L that it wins over the non-fighting game crowd. The League, Valorant, Runeterra and Wild Rift communities not only dwarf the FGC, but are most likely the first group of truly fresh players who’ll pick Riot’s foray into fighting games up first, too. The big question on my mind regarding Project L right now is simply, ‘do League of Legends players actually give a shit?’
UPDATE: Sep. 7, 2022, 3:45 p.m. EDT We’ve compiled the best deals on Dyson cordless and upright vacuums. Here’s what’s live as of Sept. 7:
BEST CORDLESS DEAL: The Dyson V8 is your most affordable path to a Dyson and features a self-detangling Motorbar — $349 $449 (save $100)
BEST UPRIGHT DEAL: The Dyson Ball Animal 3 Extra deep cleans, has a huge dust bin, and includes a pet grooming tool — $399.99 $499.99 (save $100)
The automated convenience of a robot vacuum is undeniably sweet, but for some, a Roomba just can’t compare to the rush or attention to detail of manual vacuuming. That’s where Dyson comes in. Shop this week’s deals on Dyson vacuums below. For help comparing models, check out our guide to Dyson’s current stick, ball, canister, and handheld vacs.
Your most affordable path to a Dyson is the V8. Even as Dyson’s mildest cleaner, it’s still a powerhouse, creating more cyclonic suction than the now-discontinued V7 and cleaning for up to 40 minutes. The self detangling Motorbar features hair removal vanes that keep the majority of long hair from wrapping around.
Dyson V8 Absolute — $399.99 $499.99 (save $100)
Dyson V11 Extra — $549.99 $649.99 (save $100)
Dyson V11 Complete — $599.99 $699.99 (save $100)
Spacious homes with lots of pets may fare better with a vacuum that doesn’t require recharging or frequent dustbin emptying. The third iteration of Dyson’s Ball Animal deep cleans carpets with an anti-tangle Motorbar that now features a completely removable brushroll. The included pet grooming tool is one you won’t get with a cordless Dyson.
Drumroll, please, for the latest interactive, live action, film archival puzzle from Sam Barlow, of Her Story and Telling Lies. This latest rumination on voyeurism also delves into storytelling, sex, death, religion, love, lust, lies, pretence (as distinct from acting), power and self. That’s a lot to pack into the partial, out of order clips of three different films, which manage to span both decades and careers. The central figure is Marissa Marcel, an almost-star actor who made three movies before disappearing. So the question you strive to answer, by looking through unedited takes and rehearsal footage, is: what happened to Marissa Marcel?
In typical Barlow fashion, the entirety of the footage isn’t easily spooled through. From one starting clip you’re able to watch it, flick back and forth through the recording, and pause it to use the in-game search tool to focus on a face or object on screen. Selecting it will then take you to that face or a similar object in a different clip, and eventually you build up a much fuller catalogue of footage.
Now. Immortality also talks quite a bit about sex, in various ways and for various reasons, and there is female nudity. So yes, you can enhance! Zoom! on a tit. And the game will take you to another clip featuring a similar tit. Ba-dum, tsh!
