A simple conversation could have easily solved whatever issues your neighbor may have had. As a society, we have to be better than this sort of thing. Agreed. I've put in 3 work orders for burying the line and the 3rd party that does the trenching wont start on orders until June 15th. All they had to do was come ask what was going on. It's not like I havent been trying to get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how each of feels about the decisions authorities have made, that's the reality. Each of has the ability to work together to make the best of the situation. Your neighbor chose not to. This is a completely avoidable situation and is a sad commentary on the state of some members of society. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drroogh Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 When you finally get the trencher there, I think I would tell them there is a 6 pack waiting for them if they mess up the neighbors yard as much as they can get away with!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Just got notice that YouTube TV no longer has the Disney channels! Which means no ESPN. Not that disappointed but there are IU games coming on ESPN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of how many subscribers there but I'd assume YouTube TV is going to take a substantial hit. Problem is I like YT TV over the others....but the whole point of streaming is to get the channels. Looking at getting cable again for the first time in a decade. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know much but it seems several local cables no longer carry the ABC channel. It's not just the streaming services. The Discovery Channel group managed to shut down Tvision, now Disney is throwing their weight around? At least I still have FOX for today.

HoosierFaithful Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Ding ding ding - Disney wants to force people off YTTV and back into the arms of the most notable competition, Hulu, that it... co-owns. At the worst, they'll extract some major upgrades to the carriage fees YTTV pays. I look at the streaming services not as a cost saver but as a convenience saver. If I don't like it, I cancel. No contract, no boxes to return. Better user interface. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotIThatLives Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Help question. My mother in law has no internet, on purpose. She has a good enough phone to stream and potentially cast. She has like a 24 in tv that is not smart but has hdmis. Is there a device that she can simply cast to from her phone? Im getting mixed answers on a chromecast doing this. Some say you have to have both devices on the same internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if she wanted to turn her phone into a hotspot, now she has a chromecast to do lots of different things as well...if it works like that.

southsidehoosier Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 I’m thinking of switching from YT tv to sling tv and adding on the B1G channel to their blue package. I don’t want to miss the college fb playoffs. Any thoughts on sling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted December 19, 2021 Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 Seems quite a few streaming services require you to have a regular TV provider. The trick I found is to pick what service you want, see what their provider list is then pick one with a free trial. Get your subscription, activate with your "service provider" then cancel the free trial. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where the coat hanger goes. But be careful, it’s like brain surgery. If you go to deep your TV is lobotomized! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
