I am hoping someone knows this (I would be surprised if no one does, given how much details is known about every other satellite data stream). I am asking in this Forum, since it is the Forum frequented by everyone who might know the answer, and is somewhat related to Uplinks.
Previously when I asked this in a short, simple way, some people had no idea what I was asking for, so I will give an example.
Suppose you have a Dish Pass set for "The Joe Blow Show".
The day before, there was no Guide listing information indicating any showing of "The Joe Blow Show" today.
However, the day before, the World Championship of Blah-Blah ended after 5 games (4-1) and so there will not be a sixth game.
So, the Network decides to air an episode of "The Joe Blow Show" instead of tomorrow's scheduled sixth game.
If your ViP622 gets the Guide Listing update, then it will record the show tomorrow.
But if your last update of the EPG was before Dish Network changes the Guide Listing, then it will not record "The Joe Blow Show" - because you will still have the listing of "Sixth Game of the World Championship".
Dish Network offers a 9-day EPG listing. In order for it not to be an 8-day listing the next day, they have to update the Guide and add another day's listings. That has to happen at least once a day.
So, I want to know "at what time is that EPG Guide Listing changed every day" - meaning at what time every day is the EPG streaming data changed?
We know that uplinks and tables are usually changed at roughly 11:30 am Mountain Time on Wednesday.
Software updates are usually spooled at Midnight Mountain Time, often on Thursday/Friday.
So, it seems likely that EPG data streams are updated on a daily basis at a specific time...

We were up in Pigeon Forge, TN a month ago and we couldn't get anything on our phones to work on mobile data...the Ookla speed test app couldn't even do a speed test. I have an older 13 and went into my settings and turned off the 5G, making it use LTE exclusively....did a speed test of over 300mbps so obviously the 5G bands were overwhelmed. Anyway, tried to do the same thing on my Wife's 15 and the cellular data options tab simply wasn't there. Any of you run into this? We've on Verizon

Apparently I'm not a big enough nerd
since I did not read every Marvel Comic Book ever published. If I had, I might be comparing the comics' version of events compared to what's transpiring in "Visionquest". So, I am enjoying the series a lot, not weighed down by previous expectations, knowing only the Avengers MCU movies and the "Wandavision" / "Agatha All Along" TV series.
I found the Mr Know-it-All channel from his discussion about "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" and he's been gleefully picking these episodes apart, referencing the Marvel comics from the 1939 on. Turns out A.I. has been around since before World War II, at least in the comics. (Robots before that, yes, yes.) This show is going back into the archives.

To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
