Open Discussion / Micah = Michael?
« Last post by ober on Today at 11:54:46 AM »So I got an email through my website today (like I do most days) from a 'freelance developer that really wants to help me elevate my game and redesign my site'... because clearly they can read my site and see that I do this type of thing often. 
Anyways, I went to delete it and noticed the name was 'Michael Murray'. Micah... are you trying to say my site sucks?

« Last post by micah on Today at 10:43:34 AM »is CBS on Hulu? I know their stingy about streaming anything via services other then their pricey Watch app.
I had CBS watch for a couple months... when our netflix expired we went a couple months without it and I used some of my google play credits for the CBS app so I could finishing binge watching NCIS, Bluebloods and the first season of the new Star Trek series.
presuming they have the SuperBowl on CBS Watch, I imagine you could sign up for their free week as well and then cancel.

I got my wife and iPad Pro for xmas so she can do some of her digital artwork on it (also got her the Apple Pencil) and now she's wishing she got the X when she upgraded to the 8 Plus. The face recognition is amazing, even in low light!

Another option is to do a 7 day trial of Hulu w/ TV. Then just cancel it. That's what I have and it's great!
Also fuck the Pats.
I wanted the Saints to win it all. I guess I'll be rooting for the Rams now.

There are several websites, like this one: https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html where you can see how close you are to which stations. Generally speaking, if you're within 20-25 miles, you should be good with a set-top antenna as long as you don't have a large hill and a forest between you and the TV stations.
Also, once its hooked up, make sure you go through your TV settings and have it scan for signals. Its not like the olden days where if the signal goes through the wire the station just starts coming in. Every single time you adjust the antenna, you have to run a scan again (which is a huge pain in the ass if your TV has a crappy UI like mine)

Not sure if it's because I didn't do it right or because we have a large hill and forest directly between us and where all the TV stations broadcast from. It's probably worth it for me to try again, though.
