Re: Electronic shenanigans

1) depending on the model, the more expensive smaller TV was probably a better TV. Most chinese brands are inexpensive these days. 2) i’m not sure what the complaint about the remote is. 3) Yeah, we’re being spied on constantly. And if you have a smartphone, its not gonna stop. It is ridiculous. 1)...

Re: Electronic shenanigans

I've noticed this. We want an 86 inch TV since the prices have come down but they are all "smart" TVs. Black tape over the camera and inject epoxy into the microphone? "Nuke it from space, it's the only way to be safe." Pretty much. “The telescreen received and transmitted simul...

Electronic shenanigans

Marking my self safe from the May 2024 Solar Storm. During the solar storm my youngest pointed out all these new, cool horizontal bars on our TV. 24hr it was dead. So, I waited until today to replace since I knew the Memorial Day sales would go live today. Geezer complaint #1: I don't have room for,...

Re: What's happened to this forum?

Just time of year and life for me. I am less active on all online activities. My youngest is graduating in days and business is picking up so I am traveling more. I probably will be on the road for the next few weeks until it is time to help my youngest move cities for a summer program. I came here ...

Re: Latest Tobacco Purchase 2024

I guess it's been a few days now; but, over the weekend I picked up a few oz of Engine #99. I usually don't enjoy Cornell & Diehl blends. They all tend to bite no matter what I do. So far, this one is a pleasant exception. Only negative was a big piece of stem.
