    Does any channels show stuff? Even PBS doesn't do much either. :(

    Because it is rural. :(

  6. Re:interesting material? on YouTube Opens Up 60fps To Everyone · · Score: 1

    That is a video game. What about a NON-video game?

  7. Re:Time To Change That Windows Icon on Windows 8 and 8.1 Pass 15% Market Share, Windows XP Drops Below 20% Mark · · Score: 1

    Does /. still use Borg Bill Gates icon too? I turned off most of the images on /. in my account for speed and infor(mation).

    TWC is doing that. :( Yeah, don't trust the government. I am pretty sure FCC will approve the merger with Comcast. :(

  11. Re:They tried to raise prices 20% unnanounced on Cutting the Cord? Time Warner Loses 184,000 TV Subscribers In One Quarter · · Score: 1

    TWC's cablecard has encryption so you can't even copy like OTA. I miss OTA, but my new area is blocked by small mountains/giant hills to get all the channels. :(

    I was thinking of Global Liberation Army from Command & Conquer: Generals (C&C:G). :P

  14. Re:Don't wear a watch... on How Apple Watch Is Really a Regression In Watchmaking · · Score: 1

    I still like wearing my old school Casio Data Bank 150 calculator watch. I don't own a mobile phone and don't want to carry it since it is big and heavy. I am small and can't put in my pockets when I go out. I wished there was a smartwatch that didn't require a mobile phone.

  15. Back then 3.5" disks were useful to be reused as blank ones. ;)

    I used to get OTA for TV, but not anymore after the recent forced move (eviction). Now, I have to pay my cable company to get TV since several channels don't come in due to the small mountain/big hills block the transmitters. :(

  17. Meh to smartwatches... on How Apple Watch Is Really a Regression In Watchmaking · · Score: 1

    ... I am still waiting for a smartwatch that doesn't require a mobile phone like my old school Casio Data Bank 150 calculator watch. Its battery replacement is every few years too!

    Were you able to find another job or were you hit hard? :( I hate it when I fail. I wished we had time machines to undo our errors.
