Ok all you Techies.. looking to cut the cord on Dish

[DoubleAtotheRON]

There are some good streaming devices mentioned. We've had a couple of Roku's and they're decent. Newer ones are way better. I'm assuming you meant 35 MBps (Megabytes/s) and not Mbps (Mega bits/s). There's a big difference.

See... that's why I came to you guys My tech knowledge gets more limited the longer Im out of the Corporate world.

I've been out of that game for a decade so I've practically forgotten everything I knew. My daughter is faster and more efficient at current tech than me now, but I've still got tricks up my sleave that she'll never understand.

Perfect insurance company commercial lol it didn't work

Because the tricks will be obsolete dad lol

I feel like I'm just starting to get into that with mine

Im pretty good on Mac... been using it for about a decade. Windows? ... what's Windows?

 

[DoubleAtotheRON]

I've had the same 15" MacBook Pro since 2015. 16G ram, 500G storage, and it has NEVER froze or crashed on me. Paige is a Windows person, and when she gets on my Mac, she's lost. Im the same way with Windows.

Just pull up a DOS prompt and show em how it's done. They'll run away scared.

You mean Mbps. But that's decent what you have. I have shitty DSL that's like ~7 Mbps. This is a good thread though. I've got a Roku box here but haven't messed with it yet. I think you can get the local channels through it too I find I remember right, but I'm not sure.

Yeah, my local station always advertises to watch on Roku.

Megabytes, nizzlebites... whatever. 7??... That's about what we used to get with Hughesnet. Living in the country has limited options, but since T-Mobile came out with the 5G Gateway for business... we get in the 30's,.. seen it as high as 62, just depends on traffic at the moment.

There's 8 bits in a byte,

I'll alert the media.

@PadawanWarrior ...How's that stub healing up?

 

[PadawanWarrior]

I'll alert the media.

It was a stupid nerd joke.
