  1. It was in an article on the cord cutters tech support group on Facebook that they are only going to have it work as being cast from a computer phone or tablet to a TV.
  2. Don't watch Freeform but that is strange as Vue claims anything you record stays for 28 days and that has been my experience with all the stuff I record. I am running on a FireTV box and AppleTV so perhaps it works differently.
  3. Just hit the right button a bunch of times rapidly and it will jump ahead. I routinely hit it so it jumps 3:00 or 3:30 to skip a bunch of commercials at once.
  4. Wine! Some times some whine too, as that makes me feel better.
  5. Not really. It will only work on mobile devices although you can cast it. It is not going to work on streaming devices like FireTV, AppleTV, Roku or SmartTVs directly. I also saw it will have YouTube stuff in the frame and won't fill the screen. PS Vue will still be better which in this area already has local networks and DVR.
  6. But isn't the problem with MLB that they blackout the home games that SNY carries?
  7. So with the baseball season fast approaching what is the best (or possible) way to watch the NY Met's if you don't have cable and want to see home games as well as away games.
  8. You can keep the number with Ooma but they told me when I did mine the port fee was $39, BUT, if you sign up for a year of premium Service which is normally $10 a month they give you the year for $99 and include porting at no extra fee. I wanted premium for many of the features including NoMoRobo and other blocking features to get rid of all the junk calls plus I can have the. Umber ring on my cellphone besides ringing in the house.
  9. Well I am guessing they can't do that until inspectors and insurance people come out and check it out. But I would think they could just have you shoot from the grass 5 yards in front of it. Good thing I shoot mostly pistols and don't really care about it that much
  10. Well they built a big airplane wing to cover the shooting area and the aeronautical engineer who designed it thought they could hold a wing down with thin galvanized brackets. Mother nature proved them wrong. The entire structure collapsed and is sitting on top of the concrete pad now. My understanding is the architect is working with his E&O insurance company to get this resolved. Don't have any idea on ETA for repair.
  11. You definitely don't NEED 200mbps. The only reason I got that was that my only option for Internet is Optimum (Cablevision) I bitched to them that they were offering new customers 50mbps for $45 while they were charging me $64. They at first refused to do anything but ultimately came back that they would drop it to $59 AND up the speed to 200. I had been streaming two TVs a few computers and portable devices on 50 mbps with no issues. As for phone, you really don't need POTS for Grandma, get Ooma (or something similar) - it works just like a plain old phone - you pick up the phone and dial. The only difference with Ooma is the dialtone sound slightly different.
  12. What is IP Vanish (I have a guess). What does it cost, how does it impact speeds and are their limits on bandwidth and a data cap with it?
  13. SyFy is included in the base PS Vue package.
  14. Thanks Glen. BTW the base PS Vue includes ESPN and ESPN2 along with NBC Sports Network. For those looking into this Play Station Vue is a terrible name, as many think you need a Playstation to use it which is not true. Sony should change the name. The Roku unfortunately is not the best platform as they have not updated it to provide a good Guide like you get on an Amazon FireTV (stick or box) or AppleTV or even web browser. For those that can get OTA then SlingTV might be a better option as it is cheaper but only has one or two of the networks live. The other nice thing about PS Vue is it has cloud based DVR built in, so once you tell it you want to watch a show in addition to the video on demand feature it automatically records all your shows and keeps them for 28 days. With video on demand you can't fastforward but when you DVR you can. PS Vue will work on five devices at once, but with SlingTV you only get one or two streams depending on the package. There are other providers such as Direct TV Now and more will be coming. Hulu is planning to launch a similar service in the fall which could be something to look at too. As for phone, I am very pleased with Oooma. Call quality is excellent and in NJ the base package is free you just pay $4.08 a month for taxes and 911 service. If you want all the bells and whistles there is a premium package that is an added $10 a month, or you can buy a year for $99. If you buy the year it includes free porting of an existing phone number. I have had Magic Jack also for a number of years and really think it sucks. Quality is crap. Many use a free service on an Obi box which costs $50 or $60 bucks and works with a Google voice number. I did not want to go that route as I wanted real customer support, ever try to talk to someone at Google For those that want to wear an eye patch, there is always Kodi which can be sideloaded on a FireTV (stick or box) will give you just about any TV show, Movie, or sporting event at no cost.
  15. Why not just get a good high power hand held light? Do you really want to be pointing the gun at things and people you might not want to shoot just to identify what they are? Also do you want to give a bad guy a nice bright target to shoot at as opposed to holding the light away from your body? All things to consider.
  16. I'll assure those that asked that when I posted the original link it clearly stated the cut-off date, but it appears the state did not like the responses they were getting and quickly edited the page to not include that information. The page as it was presented can be seen here: https://blog.princelaw.com/2017/02/15/delaware-changes-concealed-weapons-agreements-not-for-the-better/ You can clearly see at the bottom of the table what it had said: KENTUCKY MAINE MICHIGAN MISSOURI NEW MEXICO NORTH CAROLINA NORTH DAKOTA (Class 1 permits only) OHIO OKLAHOMA SOUTH DAKOTA (Enhanced Permits Only) TENNESSEE TEXAS UTAH WEST VIRGINIA Further, Delaware will no longer recognize non-resident permits issued by any state beginning on September 23, 2017.
  17. Don't know if this is old news, but I just saw it today. As of September 23, 2017 Delaware will no longer honor non-resident Concealed Carry Permits issued by any jurisdiction. http://attorneygeneral.delaware.gov/criminal/concealedweapons.shtml
  18. Just got an email match is cancelled Due to concerns over road conditions.
  19. All these laws are stupid and serve no purpose other than to allow political hacks to preach to their followers that they did "something" even if that something does nothing. The fact that a 15 round Glock factory mag is more acceptable than a rivited but not epoxied 17 round mag limited to 15 rounds is a prime example of the stupidity. Or take the case that you could be in big trouble for having that 17 round Glock mag but it is perfectly legal to have a .40cal 15 round Glock mag which is really quite reliable at feeding 17 rounds of 9mm ammo. Stupid New Germany laws!!!
  20. …..For sale is my Black Lab. He is ARound 15 years old and weights 223 lbs (556 kg). I’m not sure why he’s so fat since I’ve only fed him 900-1000 times in his life. He also comes with 6 heavy duty retractable leashes that each stop at exactly 30 feet. When he was younger he got his eye poked out so now he has glass eye made by Nikon that allows him to see to about 300 yards and it shoots a frickin laser! He also got his front leg chopped off so now he has a hard plastic leg. If you ever need to pick him up (like for a bath or something) you just reach out and grab that plastic leg and you have a great grip. Also, sometimes he has a hard time standing on that plastic leg so you just push a button on the plastic leg and it splits in half to become a “bipod” type thing. It also swivels, helps with balance. Dog also comes with a long black bag to carry him in that has lots of pockets for his 30 foot leashes and can even carry another small dog….. Asking $900 for the black lab, cash only, no trades for other dogs……………….Dog’s name is Bushmaster (cause he’s good at finding stuff in the bushes).
  21. This is the problem with the stupid state of New Germany, they pass these ridiculous laws that the average person does not fully understand and may be tripped up by them. My FFL routinely riveted mags and had permission from the state police until about two years ago to do this. At that point they requested to be able to pin magazines that customers would bring in when the state was talking about screwing us to 10 rounds yet again. The state police agreed to let them do that but told them they would no longer allow the rivet but would require the base pads be epoxied - they did tell them they would not have an issue with magazines that they had already pinned in this manner (grandfathering?). Now here is where this starts to get crazy. They had been fine with Glock 17 round mags that were pinned with a rivet but now require epoxy. Glock recently came out with 15 round magazines for Glock 17/34 guns. They look just like the 17 round mags except the two inspection holes for round 16 and 17 are no longer there. If you take the basepad off you find a small plastic block with a Glock part number that keeps the follower from allowing more than 15 rounds - no different than what an FFL might install. The user can easily remove this part and now the magazine will hold 17 rounds. So, how can this 15 round magazine from Glock be legal yet one that is far more secure with a rivet that prevents removal not be legal. STUPID NJ!!!!
  22. Actually here is an even cheaper one that claims to be auto. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Fosmon-3-Port-HDMI-Intelligent-Auto-Switch-Switcher-Support-Full-HD-3D-1080p-PS3-PS4-Xbox-360-One-HDTV-DVD-Blue-Ray/40900095?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=1426&adid=22222222228028516972&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=61184371089&wl4=pla-96577684329&wl5=9003733&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=112550019&wl11=online&wl12=40900095&wl13=&veh=sem
  23. They make cheap, like $25, manual switches that you could plug into the one input and have three HDMI inputs go to it.
  24. A lot depends on what you like. I don't personally like the decocker models and like the ones with safeties better. The reason is because you can use it cocked and locked. If you have the safety you can also manually decock it if you want to use it for things like USPSA Production or IDPA SSP divisions. If you have one with a safety you can shoot IDPA in ESP division also. If you want the slightly smaller lighter one (still a great gun) go with the 75B. The SP01 is a little bigger and heavier. The Shadow and Accushadow offer some more competitive features for more money. If you have smaller hands the 75B is your best bet. You can't go wrong with any of them.
  25. Perhaps his system only has one input? I thought they all had more, my old one has four or five HDMI inputs.
