Not sure what you mean by, what was I doing.

But I recorded the show as a test because I was thinking man there seems to be a lot of commercials. I checked the time before I started the show. Then I watched the show and fast forwarded through the commercials. Then I checked the time after the show.

That’s how I figured out how out the length of the actual show. They played a little bit of show then a block of commercials.

Cable tv

And I’m sorry I just disagree. A few ads is one thing. Basically half the show is just stupid. I won’t watch that many commercials. I’ll record the show

I agree with a lot of what you said. It’s why I buy my disks. Can’t be deleted.

I am going to disagree with one item. You say you don’t have a tv. The screen you use to display the image is effectively a tv. So in essence you still have one. You just don’t have cable tv or an aerial antenna. You even use the streaming services from time to time.

But otherwise yeah I definitely understand where you are coming from.

Ads weren’t bad when it was like a minute with of commercials. Now it can be 7 minutes at a time. The worst was when I was watching Star Trek Voyager, a one hour show was actually 27 minutes of ads. Not a joke. 27 minutes of ads and 33 minutes of show. That was what broke me. I now record everything and watch it later and fast forward through the commercials.

Do you watch any streaming services or do you mean zero tv, no shows, nothing?

I bought a tivo have had a couple through the years. They (spectrum and the tv station) can’t control what I fast forward through.

I record everything I watch. Record now and watch later. Then I fast forward through the commercials. If something seems interesting I’ll go back and actually watch it.

I literally don’t know if you made this up or if it’s actually from a book.

Either way… Well done

Most of them are a pain in the ass to properly clean. My mom has a ninja air fryer. There is no way to remove the top grate. The grease builds up in it.

A lot of liberals do vote. I think you meant "for those liberals that don’t vote, why don’t they vote "

Trump won this time. I don’t like it but he did win.

At 24 seconds

Good enough for me.

He didn’t realize it was an issue, he won’t do it again.

And then there’s the truly sad bunch that can’t live without social media.

For those that missed… Yes I’m joking

The president Can’t be held accountable is one thing. The vp as far as I know (if the vp killed the president) would need certain people in the cabinet to make him president. They’d have to sign off on it.

But of they signed off on it then really at this point nothing stops it

Because trees are made of wood and without blood, your wood isn’t doing anything.

I should go.

Another good way to do it is to actually hire a HVAC individual on and have them come out and just look at the system. But be wary of that. Some of them are not exactly the most brightest bulbs in the world. And they will tell you, oh you have to have them all open at the same time you can’t close them. Without actually looking at the system. I’ve run into that to myself. In my house, I can close, almost half of my vents without any issue, and yet a number of techs have told me I can’t do that. Until I make them go and look at the furnace and count the number of vents and look at the size the vents then they go oh yeah, I guess you can.

Like I said some of them are not very bright. So maybe it might pay to hire on a couple of them to really look it over. Make sure they really look at the central system, blower furnace, etc. and then also look at the vents in the size of the vents.

Yes, it cost some money upfront for them to come out and help you with it, but you can get an idea of to what they’re doing.

The other option is to go down to the library and check out a bunch of books on the subject and try to learn it yourself.

This is why I record everything. Then watch it later and fast forward through the commercials. Most times i just hit the commercial skip button. I can turn a 1 hour tv show into 40 minutes or less. Football games are crazy the amount of time you can save.

A little practice and you start a football game time delayed and fast forward through the commercials and still end the game with in minutes of when the game actually ends.

I once got it with in about five minutes of the ending of the game.

Football, baseball or any game will work the same way.

Lol

This is the exact problem. If you don’t get into the conversation right away. Nothing you say will be heard
