  1. We have an Apple One sub for the family. Part of that $30 a month for music, storage and all that jazz is a sub for Apple TV. Use it from time to time. Ted Lasso, for instance. So, I'm one of those that the Pac 12 is counting on to maintain a subscription....and I'm sure I might catch some compelling game on that service. Might. Because it would have to be very compelling and more entertaining that whatever was happening at the same time that Fox, CBS, ABC/ESPN or Fox Sports was showing. Which I highly doubt.
  2. And for those who do not want to click on a Twitter link:
  3. Yeah. I mean, my house has it (through YoutubeTV) but aside from some semi-interesting college game in the fall, it's never on.
  4. FS1 is now in more homes than ESPN. https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/SB-Blogs/Newsletter-Media/2023/07/31.aspx

  6. I've been hearing for the last 30+ years how the olds are going to die off and and Republicans will suffer electorally any day now. For some strange reason, the young un's keep replacing the Team R olds when, well, they turn old. Yeah, yeah. Demographics and whatnot. It hasn't changed much.
  7. My name is Francisco, and I'm a tech collector hoarder. I still have my first computer from 1994. At this moment, I probably have in the house somewhere around 75-100 computers and laptops. I've not seen many of them in years, as they are in the attic, or stored in a spare bedroom closet. iPads? Probably around 15-20 or so between me, my wife and kids. I still have Blackberrys (hell, I have two Blackberry Storms, for those of you who know what a piece of shit those were) around from the 2005-10 time range. Why? Honestly, I have no idea. I'm not using all of this stuff, yet I can't part with it. In the den, there are two laptops (the one I'm typing on and my wife's). In the office upstairs, there's a 2019 Mac Pro and an iMac, and that's it for computers that are visibly on display, being used daily, etc. The kids each have an Ipad, so they don't have a lot of stuff out. I've handed down older phones, watches, tablets and laptops to other family members, so I've done that before. Lotta words to explain that yeah, I need to start culling.
  8. Good God. I'm guessing there's no permit for this, either, and one probably wouldn't have been granted given the incredibly poor taste and design of said logo. I'm sure the landlord is proud.
