Is your house located near a power substation? I have seen instances where high voltage transformer grounding can cause a significant voltage potential against grounds that were referenced elsewhere. A fundamental lesson in electronics is that ground is relative, and not an absolute.

I went all out and made a traditional Brit breakfast of Toad in the Hole. This is breakfast sausages browned and then baked in Yorkshire pudding. Topped with onion gravy. It came out perfect, but it definitely was not a hit with the family. I guess I won't be doing that one again 😟

Please take it to the political talk forum. Several discussions going on there.

True that any component can fail, but a quality product has likely had stress testing and failure analysis performed. Possibly even beta testing in user environments. The box we are discussing here was most likely rushed into production as soon as the prototype was operational. Their...

A bit of a surprise. Ronnie has always been the guide to good behavior in the Pitt's many incarnations. I always thought he was the prime moderator. IMO, the pit needs gentle, but constant attention, and frankly you two have other pressing issues.

I live in an apartment these days, and only get on the air to talk to old friends on 2M. I have had good luck using a 5/8 mobile whip in front of a window. I bought a 30" galvanized feed dish at Tractor Supply, and found that it makes a good ground plane for the mobile. No muss, fuss or...

Hate the laugh track. Rest is pretty good.

Here in SE Wisconsin, regular is down under $3. Saw it at $2.92. However premium is still $4.19. Seems a ripoff to me.

I don't buy much anymore, but I do like that once a physical disc is in my hands it is there forever and unchanged (Hans shot first). All the streaming services have titles that come and go, and less popular or dated titles never make it back into rotation. I was looking for a particular disc...

Don't forget the sequel, Heavy Traffic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Traffic

Monthly is the default. Annual is an option, as is lifetime Lifetime is probably as long as a cable option is available. Spectrum seems to be ready to stop cable and push streaming, which won't work with these boxes. Ultimately the boxes become useless when TIVO stops supporting guide data

My TIVOs have been bombarded with messages offering fire sale prices on the Edge. I have an Edge and a Roamio, both with lifetime.

Funny, Spectrum is doing the opposite here. I was able to choose my local RSN as part of the lowest tier, Total Choice pick 15.

A favorite saying of mine: Nostalgia, it ain't what it used to be (And never was)

None right now. I have been waiting 14 months for them to do my cataract surgery. 2 weeks to go, yay. Why does it take so long for any medical procedure these days. I mean, really, 14 months from diagnosis to surgery?

One thing the article misses is reliability. Constant use of usb or lightning will eventually cause the port to fail. I have lost equipment over that issue. Since wireless avoids a mechanical connection it is more reliable by design

Imdb shows an episode 14 showing in March.

As in, never waste money on an odd numbered Star Trek.

I've had TIVOs for a decade. The only time I ever needed a third tuner was when I had a TIVO MINI connected. The mini would steal a tuner

I mostly like it. My big issue is that it isn't respecting default font size in preferences. My old eyes and small tablet say nope

Fwiw, I still use a 2008 Panny 50S1 plasma daily as a bedroom unit. Still meets all my needs for a bedroom unit

maybe just stream it? https://www.newsnationnow.com/news-nation-live/

I have been trying to wrap my head around a response for several hours without success. The p r oblem is that the picture you paint is very broad. I see areas you mention as essential where an engineer in a subfield wouldn't need to know or care. At the same time I see a few holes that any...
