    Streaming Totals?

    That's a lot. Sounds like you're streaming at 4K. I have Hulu and run anywhere from 7g to 20g when running it all day. We have it set for 720. Can't really tell the difference between 720 and 1090 (or whatever the next setting up is.)

    why won't Dish fix their idiotic guide issues?

    I wish they'd bring back the Rotten Tomatoes reviews. They were good, helpful, and sometimes pretty funny!

    HBO is BACK on DISH

    So it's two streaming channels, two channels that are just East and West of the same channel, and one other channel. So, unless you're streaming, you get two whole channels. Not really something to get excited about.

    HBO is BACK on DISH

    What is the point of Dish running HBO Max? If I lived where I could get internet, I wouldn't need satellite television. Is HBO coming to Dish or is it only going to be the internet version?

    Dish ever going to bring back the Rotten Tomatoes reviews?

    Oh, you you're the one person who is watching Batwoman. lol On topic, I don't know what Gracenote is, but I'd really like see the reviews come back.

    Dish ever going to bring back the Rotten Tomatoes reviews?

    The tab for Reviews is still there, but nothing. I enjoyed reading those!

    Is DirecTV still a thing?

    I haven't seen any advertisements for DirecTV in a while. Is it still a thing?

    Movie reviews not working?

    Is the movie reviews tab not working? I always liked to read those. Now the reviews aren't showing up.

    What will happen if Dish and DirecTV merge?

    That is what I am afraid of. We'll end up getting DirecTV pricing and customer service.

    What will happen if Dish and DirecTV merge?

    Since Dish's CEO said a merger with DirecTV is "inevitable", what do you thing will happen? Will DirecTV become more like Dish? Or will Dish become more like DirecTV?

    Unbundle ESPN

    The others don't charge nearly as much as ESPN. ESPN.

    Unbundle ESPN

    Is ESPN so unpopular that the only way they can get people to subscribe to it is to bundle it with other channels? I always thought ESPN had enough ratings on its own.

    NEW CHANNEL - POMPEII

    The Pompeii situation? What is that? Is Vesuvius blowing again?

    Unbundle ESPN

    Yeah. There are a lot of channels I don't watch, but ESPN charges vastly more than the others. Which is why it gets the brunt of the hate when it comes to "mandatory" bit.

    Unbundle ESPN

    I don't watch ESPN anyway, but I really object to being forced to pay for ESPN when they are showing "pit spitting" and "marble racing". I'd do the flex pack, but some channels I do want aren't available.

    ESPN to resume live sports

    This sounds like something Weird Al Yankovic would program on channel 62 in the movie UHF. Coming on U62: Conan the Librarian, followed by Ghandi II. But first, Cherry Pit Spitting and Jelle's Marble Run!

    Dish trying to get Disney to kick back some ESPN fees

    I don't watch ESPN, so I am more than happy to get rid of it. ESPN should be its own premium channel with its own separate charge.

    Dish trying to get Disney to kick back some ESPN fees

    That is a very interesting way for the NY Post to phrase that headline. Dish seeks to stiff ESPN (emphasis added) I thought the NYP would be in favour of the consumer and against corporate greed. Oh, but it IS Disney, and they are a politically correct company, so I guess that is how it...

    Starlink beta coming soon?

    It's better to have your telescope in space where the atmosphere doesn't interfere.

    Is my hopper 3 heading south?

    How much stuff do you have on your drive. I had a hopper do that when I had a lot of saved recordings. Could be indicative of a bad drive.

    Chrome or Firefox?

    I run FireFox without a problem. I use Brave on my Smartphone. Stay far, far away from Chrome. They bug you more than China. I don't even like Microsoft Edge. Who knows what tracking is in that thing?

    First Responders offer

    I see that Dish Network is giving First Responders an offer. Among the offers was a free PPV every month. Is that deal only for new subscribers, or can current subscribers get that as well?

    Supendously high latency on HughesNet

    I've been getting ridonkulously high latency on HughesNet EchoStar 19, Beam 5, Gateway 15. We're talking multiple seconds. The highest was a massive 44(!) seconds latency. How do I find out where it is coming from? Traceroutes don't show anything, though there are a couple hops that time out...
