    Your reflection in that ipad screen is absolutely frightening.

    Once seen, it can't be unseen.

    They didn't offer us much of anything; just the same Internet (105Mbps) plus basic cable for $140. We dropped to 25Mbps only for $70.

    I'm sure it's a coincidence, but an hour after moving from 100Mbps to 25 Mbps service, our speed has indeed changed... from 100 to 125Mbps. I wonder if she fat-fingered something. :lol:

    Total bullshit. Such a racket.

    I'm not in favor of adding more government usually, but internet needs to be a utility. The UN just ruled that internet is a human right. I'm tired of shitty companies like Comcast and Verizon gouging people over things like data. It's a total fucking scam.

    There's a serious conflict of interest when a television provider also holds the reigns to the internet. They're extremely unhappy about cord cutting so they're gouging us. I would MUCH rather have a government run utility providing high speed gig internet. Sick of Comcast's shit.

    I don't know if this has been posted or not BUT, Local network channels are NOT live on Playstation Vue. A couple channels like abc, NBC, and Fox have an "On Demand" option so you can watch shows like Modern Family for example but you can't watch live programming. You will need an alternative such as over the air antenna to watch local stuff LIVE such as Katu, Kptv, etc...
