Excellent story, and fun to experience the book version leading up to the third TV season. Can’t wait to dive into Shift, but should I wait until after I’ve seen its season?

@siracusa Thank you! This TV would primarily be for TV/movies. Our current LG C9 would become the gaming TV. I’m mostly looking for bigger size, better contrast, and a bit brighter than the C9. Though I haven’t really played with the C9’s brightness settings, so that may not even be a real factor. Both Amazon and Sony have a good deal on the 77” A95L right now, but the Bravia 8 II still beats it on price.

Stunned and saddened to read that Om Malik has passed:

\n
\n

Om Malik passed away on June 24, 2026, at Stanford Hospital after a long health journey with his heart. He was surrounded by family and friends.

\n
\n

My condolences to his loved ones. I’ve been reading Om’s blog for years and always enjoyed his insight, and especially his interweaved creative endeavors. His photography has always been striking. He’ll be missed.

\n

Om’s most recent post was a personal note saying he was taking a break for some time to himself, and to read some mystery novels. I hope he enjoyed them. His final sign off:

\n
\n

Be well.
