Pre-ordering #Switch2 was 62 minutes of a queue. The tech wasn’t like Ticketmaster where you get a live progress report.

It was just “wait”, and nothing else.

Got tired and cleared cache, refreshed, and it immediately let me buy it. 😒

I can’t believe I’m saying Ticketmaster does something better.

Large open warm sectors usually end up with messy surprises within them. Don’t associate large square mileage as a slam dunk forecast.

Probably the reason why YouTubeTV will not do a deal with A&E Networks… no sports and no political content.

A&E Networks needs those 9 Million YouTubeTV subscribers they’ve never had access to.

We enjoying these new transparent, minimalist, sticker-style graphics from FOX?

Less is more, IMO. I like it without unnecessary backgrounds.

Previously, I disliked the large fonts. Now that I use the YouTubeTV multiview on a regular basis, I understand the need for those large fonts.

#SuperBowl

Seen a lot of alerts in my time, but I cannot recall PDS attached to a Red Flag Warning.

That’s some verbiage…

So, what you’re saying is flex schedule manager will become a future game mode in the Madden video game series.

Growing up a little kid, watching CBS at Grandma’s house because she’d let me stay up late to watch the flex feed of #MarchMadness with Greg Gumbel.

Greg was the first sportscaster I can recall being part of my life, and he will be missed.

It prompted me to check my “owned” version on Fandango, and the scene is there.

I’ve had instances where Bob’s mouse swapped out versions of movies on me.

It also brings back memories of all the little differences in the various cable edits on linear TV.

Pretty significant omission by Amazon.

I know we’re only 75 minutes into TNT Sports existence in the College Football Playoff, but I already think Zas overpaid for this sublease. @ourand.bsky.social

FOX using the Super Bowl LIX lead-out spot to premiere Season 3 of The Floor is such a great idea.

How many Alaska landfalls?

America loves their sportsball 😉

Figured out how to update the handle to @yofritts.com, instead of a @bsky.app handle 👌

The original AXS TV and HDNet were both ahead of their time at the beginning of HD television distribution on cable systems in the mid-2000’s

It’s occurring so much we went searching for bootleg illegal streams. The illegal streams are working, but even the Netflix feed within the illegal streams are buffering.

Okay, maybe that second part isn’t completely accurate based on the image, but let’s pretend it could be.

For folks in Dayton, Cincinnati, or Columbus who wish to follow an excellent weather bot for the region, go to @iln.weather.im

It pushes a lot of info on a busy day, but it’s the best @bsky.app automated weather resource across Central, Western, & Southwest Ohio

@akrherz.bsky.social is fantastic

Hello! I’m from the place where “Ope” is used daily, spent over a decade in the cable industry, and been a weather spotter in #Dayton for over three decades.

I mainly stick with Radar analysis and risk, managing a private network of wx cameras, and stressing out about my sportsball team.
