Seeing as the sidebar is aging somewhat I threw this search prompt to google:

what new television series or new seasons of television come out in the next 2 weeks?

The followed up with:

I'd like a tabular view consisting of date, series/season, and network/service, ordered by date, and please mark up the table for a reddit post

Which this:

Date	Series / Season	Network / Service
August 2	Yellowstone (Season 5, Part 3)	Paramount+
August 5	Ted Lasso (Season 4)	Apple TV+
August 5	100 Years of Solitude (Part 2)	Netflix
August 5	The Shards (Series Premiere)	FX / Hulu
August 6	*My Life with the Wa

I keep getting emails from [email protected] inviting me to set up my ESPN Unlimited subscription. It's great news, because it's included with my Directv subscription. Isn't that great?

Except I don't want to. I don't want to activate it. I don't want it. I don't care that it's included. I don't watch ESPN. It sucks.

Here's the trick, and perhaps Directv should pay attention:

• there is no way to stop the emails. There is no unsubscribe.
• there is no way to decline the offer.
• there is no way to contact Directv and ask them to stop sending the emails:

I know he's off on vacay and has guest hosts sitting in, namely Ike Barinholtz this week.

I noticed it didn't record last night, and all this week the time slot shows "Paid Programming" during the time slot. I can see from their YouTube channel they are filming shows...

Anyone else seeing this?

Is this some action on the part of Hearst? Last fall they showed admirable restraint against the unprecedented heavy handed (politically motivated) moves by the FCC. It's odd I can't find any press related to Hearst or anyone else making a programming move like this.

PIONEER AVIATIOOOOOON!

That's all, as you were.

B & B are watching tv. Can't remember what video. They're chuckling. With me so far?

The video features an elderly person? Maybe more than one? Can't recall.

But camera zooms to a close shot of Butt-head, hhuhhuhhhhuhuhh-ing away, who takes a beat, and delivers the classic, under-rated line:

Old people are funny.

Do any of you fart-knockers have this clip handy? Gif, yt, whatever.

If one of y'all finds this, it would be the coolest thing, that I have ever seen.

I wanted to share an update to a post I made last week about an install at my parents' house.

First I'd like to issue sincere thanks to Lee and Gregory and Clay and everyone over at u/gfiberofficial for the top notch care and attention given to this customer comms channel. The engagement was consistently exceptional, clear and professional, and I never doubted their sincere goal to deliver the best possible service. I was knocked out.

Y'all handled the situation with understanding and class. You recognized that I was advocating for and representing my 80-something year old parent

I've been a satisfied customer for 12 years, so when my 80+ year old parents made plans to downsize to a new house I recommended they look at turning up Gfiber.

The previous owners of their new house had ATT fiber, nicely and cleanly terminated to a jack in the unfinished portion of the basement. Where all the cat6 runs throughout the house are terminated. You probably can guess where this is going.

Fast forward to yesterday, where the Gfiber installer runs a black fiber line along the side of their house and hammer-drills right through the stucco into their living room. He hangs the jack on the wall of the living room behind their couch, and plugs the router in right there next to it.

Season 15 episode 1. In the bar at the reception. The presentation of the headshot of Pratt.

I laughed so long and so hard I needed a cross-table c-spine, CBC and a chem-7.

This is probably a FAQ and if so I apologize, my reddit search skill is amateurish.

You know how in the gmail web ui (and calendar for that matter), if you have a message body that contains embedded links, gmail rewrites those links to go to www.google.com with the actual link as a query string parameter, and they 302 you to the actual link target?

Yeah how do you turn that off? Anybody made a plugin yet?

Right in order to be prepared in advance of season 3, I think it right we collect ideas for a GoL drinking game, or, if you don't want alcohol and, a bingo card.

I'll get us started:

• someone brandishes a gun with such a silencer on it the whole thing looks like a hair dryer
• two people hold each other's faces between their palms, touch foreheads and nose-tips, and close their eyes
• 5 or more people in tac-gear perform an assault on a fixed position
• somebody single-handedly John Wick's the shit out of superior numbers
• somebody randomly shoots somebody else
• somebody does something inexplicably nonsensical
• something happens that you KNOW you first saw on Telemundo 20 y

I thought I'd gather some more observations regarding the recent choppiness and frame dropping regressions on Directv Stream on tvos 18.

AppleTV 4K model A1842 64(GB), tvOS 18.0 [22J357], Directv Stream Build 2002087915 Version 5.0.66

My observations: live tv tends to play without issue, but any playback of pvr content from the library almost immediately starts to drop frames and fall behind, and drift out of sync with the audio.

Pausing the playback and resuming will temporarily resync the video with the audio, but within a minute the frame drop phenomenon will return, with the video ultimately falling behind the audio again. Pausing and resuming will restore it again. Similarly, jumping
