#BestBuy

I don't get why people like #Amazon the website is horrible; the help terrible; the effort to upsell you on stuff intense

#Walmart is so much better

and Walmart is way better then bestbuy; not only cheaper, but a better GUI and they didn't try to sell me unwanted "premium" subscriptions which you have to uncheck go f*ck yourself #BestBuy

@Zero2beach
Whereas it's perfectly fine and legal to buy #Walmart or #BestBuy #GiftCard|s with thousands of dollars of value.

Those will then get sold off on the second market at low loss [10-20% compared to >40% in Bitcoin Mixers] and whilst they can't be directly cashed-out, they get then spent on fungible electronics like iPhone or MacBooks...

And that's how one can find these absurd darknet market prices for "carded merchandise": Those are the 3rd of 5 steps to launder funds:

Okay, #BestBuy. You creeped me out.

They sent an email advertising a $69.99 TV. I had to look. Wasn't interested, but they have a 4K UHD TV for $199.99, which I decided to ponder and then closed the tab.

Back at the email tab, the email header now read, "Welcome back! Didn't find what you were looking for? Check out these TV's!"

I closed the email.

😶

I just looked. It's advertising sales, as the header usually does..

Big Brother? Best Buy? We report. You decide. 🙄

Was creepy, though...

TITLE: Healthcare From Best Buy??

Here's an article no one needs to read, but I'll link to it below in case anyone wishes to relish and dwell in the absurdity.

So, YES, *Best Buy* -- the company that just finished all but going out of business and closing hundreds of stores nationwide -- now is using
their "expertise" to provide you with healthcare. That's right, why not buy healthcare from the sales people who use to sell you TVs and cordless phones at your local mall?

As my wife quipped -- "instead of Geek Squad, its now Doc Squad".

The entirety of the article is just full of meaningless phrases so I'll save you the trouble of clicking through by listing a few choice quotes:

"During a keynote address Wednesday morning at HIMSS23, executives at
these so-called 'disrupters' shared their vision for the future of care
delivery." (That's what we need -- tech company disruption... This was their KEYNOTE address!...)

"All three agreed that the current healthcare system is broken. 'We’re not thinking enough like a system,' Barry said." (?...)

"U.S. healthcare is 'a collection of solutions,' Walsh echoed. In its current siloed, fragmented state, it will continue to fail patients. What’s needed instead is a holistic, collaborative approach to care."
(?? -- Yeah, when I think of the term holistic, big tech is immediately what comes to my mind...)

"Best Buy Health works with providers like Atrium Health to power home care. 'We’re bringing what we’ve done in computer electronics for years
into health,' DiSanzo said." (??? -- LOL!)

"Tech companies must listen to providers when serving them, DiSanzo said. To build trust and buy-in, they must offer visibility into their methods. For instance, providers want to know where given data come
from, what algorithm is being employed to train a device and who is training the model in order to feel good about letting it work for them." (???? -- So the people who could not sell me a computer or refrigerator are developing AI systems to improve my healthcare...)

*Best Buy Health, VillageMD execs see collaboration as critical to future of healthcare*

🚨 Beware of fake Best Buy/Totaltech/Geek Squad emails with attached invoices claiming you owe money. It's a call center/tech support scam, sent via Intuit QuickBooks e-mail servers—so it often gets past spam filters.

Seems to be the week for screw-ups. Landlord never picked up the spare key "for documentation" (whatever that means). H&W never returned my call. Someone thought it was a good idea to ship wire wastebaskets in loose packaging ﹘both arrived bent. #BestBuy couldn't cancel an order twenty minutes after I made it because it was "being shipped". I had to return the item and I'll be refunded in... two weeks. And then there's my brother...

@mookie Given how many trackers they use, it's surprising their website loads at all. (This was just in Safari.)

We finally got enough together to get a new refrigerator for the friary. #BestBuy was supposed to deliver it today. They just called and said it will be next Friday at the soonest. If you know someone who can help, we really needed it delivered today.

Sorry to be such a bother.

Finally got the #4K #UHD 40th anniversary 6 #disc set of #ApocalypseNow from #BestBuy.

I only recently found out this existed, probably because in #2019 I was still struggling to recover from the temporary #quadriplegia that hit me in #January #2018 (and still affects me).

#WakandaForever (preordered) prompted me to finally buy a 4K disc player; I gave away all physical media and my #DVD player when I moved from #DC in 2017.

I'll be rebuilding my library with my favs, and already have 6 now.

Kotaku: GameStop Manager Fired After $5,000 PS5 Robbery https://kotaku.com/gamestop-meme-stock-crypto-scam-ps5-robbery-layoffs-1850065931 #gaming #tech #kotaku #michaelmunch #worldwideweb #digitalmedia #gamestop #websites #bestbuy #reddit #kotaku #labor

The lighting is squirrelly here, but I’ve resurrected the very first #mac I ever owned: a 1st gen, #g4 #macmini. Bought 2, open box for $125 each when I worked at #bestbuy. They’d been returned, and because no one really knew what to make of them, we just couldn’t sell them. The GM wanted them out of inventory, and thus my obsession was born. #iamridiculous😊

A warning to anyone about to buy something from #GameStop, don't! Money doesn't suddenly make a mismanaged company better, just gives them more money to waste. I ordered an in stock GPU a week ago and they still haven't prepared it at all. It's a lot of money to have in limbo. I should have just gone with #BestBuy.

Big Thanks to Amanda at the @BestBuy@twitter.com in Williamsburg VA, who helped us pick up a new laptop for streaming! Been Setting it up for the last couple of days so let's see if we can get this stream going!!

The slow wearing down of rewards programs is kind of incredible to notice. #bestbuy is pretty much making it moot unless you get a credit card through them. So that’s a program I’ll never think about again.

@scottrut OK, I just ordered an Eero from Best buy. It should arrive on Tuesday. #BestBuy #eero

@scottrut OK thanks, Eero is probably at the top of my list. My brother got one recently and he had no trouble setting it up and gave me the thumbs up when it came to accessibility. I think I'll go to Best buy to add one to my cart, along with a wireless charging for my iPhone. #BestBuy #iPhone #eero

@scottrut I bought my current router before we moved into this house, so it's at least 11 years old! I've been thinking of a new router since this one is getting so long in the tooth, we recently cut the cord and for some reason my Peloton gets poor reception. Researching routers is probably something I'll get to this weekend. I probably have some Best Buy coupons I need to use up anyway. #BestBuy

Thieves steal over 50 Apple Watches from New Hampshire Best Buy store https://www.theapplepost.com/2023/01/03/thieves-steal-over-50-apple-watches-from-new-hampshire-best-buy-store/

#AppleNews #AppleWatch #BestBuy

People tend to blame #Amazon for the downfall of retail, but I disagree. I certainly think Amazon was a contributing factor. But the retail environment never adapted to a new way of shopping. Ironically, I think the retailer that has done the best to fend off Amazon, besides #Costco, is #BestBuy.

As this #BestBuy sticker trends again (like it does every year) i reflect that:

- We still need to fear dates in computer code (see 2038, etc.)
- Stickers was the best reminder.
- That Best Buy is still around 23 years later.

Of course for the most part Y2K turned out to be nothing but mostly in part to good programmers. You're welcome.

I got a #Sonos Roam SL for Christmas, but it turns out what I really wanted was a Sonos Roam, since that had the microphone and the smart assistant. Since my wife got me the Roam SL from #BestBuy, we just needed to swing by and exchange it. I was shocked how easy it was to exchange.

The Sonos Roam sounds great! I'm really impressed with the music it pumps out. With its battery, smart assistant and Bluetooth support, I was able to replace three devices in my master bedroom.

The only disappointment I had was that I can't use Alexa and Googles Assistant at the same time. I have to choose between one or the other. It's making me think that I need to settle on one ecosystem and stop trying to keep a foot in each camp.

Bought a #HomePod mini from Best Buy (they're on sale!), got four emails.

#Apple and #BestBuy, this is way too much. You realize a single email can contain multiple pieces of content, right?

I was supposed to have a package arrive today from Best Buy, but it shows me three different things all on the same page; the order is simultaneously:

• Arriving today (it's 11 PM…)
• Ready to be shipped
• Cancelled

Also who the eff is Roadie and why did Best Buy hand off my package to this "gig economy" company?

Computer stores aren’t what they used to be. Went to 3 this morning looking for a HDD and none of them carried any in stock. Never thought I’d say this but I kind of miss #BestBuy.

@dexter how is it that I had never heard of #Federated until today but I have heard of #BestBuy?

Observation. #PlayStation5 consoles are STILL not available in our local #WalMart, #Amazon wants me to join a waiting list, #Bestbuy is sold out and Walmart's website wants over $700 to get one from a third party. Being a #PCGamer or #Nintendo gamer is basically a necessity now.

Had to go to #bestbuy a couple of times today. They have some damn good prices. I didn't know this.

Tip: Check online for their Best Buy Essentials brand. It is not on the sales floor. Go to the store and give them a SKU. They will go to the back and get it for you.

Que se va #BestBuy de México compas. ¿Cómo ven? creo que de las tiendas que venden tecnología era una de las mejorcitas...

I needed toner for the printer. It’s the same price at Amazon and Best Buy. I could get free two-day shipping at Best Buy or in-store pick up in a hour today. Both options without needing an annual fee. I find it hard to justify Amazon Prime if I just use Amazon for shopping — which I do.
