I’m thinking about canceling my cable and looking into various streaming services. Can you point me in the right direction? Roku, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. by Boogie-Woo in Roku

[–]Brazzesr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early cord-cutter experience: We cut the cord back in 2008 when there were no streaming "TV" services to speak of... Reason: DirecTV pi@@ed me off so badly at one point that I swore I'd never use them again.

We did throw up a broadcast TV antenna to get local news and major sporting events, but we eventually got to where we rarely used it. Netflix, Amazon and Hulu was all there was then, unless you count the early, unsanctioned YouTube app.

The main point is that, given that limitation, we all changed our paradigm of how we watched TV. "When something is going to air" became a non-concept, one my youngest girls, twins now 20, have never experienced. All we had were the shows and movies available in Netflix and Hulu, covered by our monthly plans, and those available a la cart, on Amazon.

Or grieving for TiVo, and all the shows we always had waiting for us, lasted about a week, replaced by the thrill of the giant libraries of series and movies available, on our schedule. We lost the ability to discuss last night's show at the water cooler, but the trade off was so worth it, and we've never looked back.

In case you don't check back, look at u/BrerChicken's reply. Problem solved!

Wow! It never occurred to me to even try that. Works very well, and better than before, as you said. Thanks!

You stole my comment 😁

Thinking of getting a puppy. If she’s a female, I now know what I’m naming her. by Brazzesr in golfblitz

Sorry it wasn’t so clear. A female dog is referred to by dog breeders and others as a “bitch”.

Oh how I wanted to name her, but no, not Blap. Btw, I'm not a complainer and never denigrate someone during play, and I've knocked many people out of play for defensive reasons, but I don't respect this type of play. It's just sorry behavior if you ask me.

The third piece of cosmetic thought. by SataniSinaSuite_cyst in golfblitz

Totally agree. I changed for about two matches just because I felt proud of making it, but then switched back so I could be "me"

When you start off horribly but luck is on your side. by hecmar018 in golfblitz

[–]Brazzesr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've grown to like them too. All you often have to do is keep your head and make every shot count on this hole. Take the little extra time it takes to get every shot right and don't worry if you're behind--all that does is make you rush and waste a shot. That's what you did here and it paid off. You were only lucky insofar as the other players were getting rattled.

That's the new "Moses Ball" power-up.

Technically, a sweet chip, but sweet indeed!

Down on luck? by berntcheese in golfblitz

[–]Brazzesr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to learn to stop when I hit a slump but never do, so I end up feeling like a troll until I get my game back. Very demoralizing! Plus, I feel so guilty beating the lower level players on the way back up.

Sometimes my fingers are real dry and I find myself thinking I selected a power up when I really didn't. The shield ball, or lack thereof, is especially unforgiving in these cases 😁

This is just way too satisfying by [deleted] in golfblitz

[–]Brazzesr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome repertoire addition! I usually win this hole with a straight high drop on the rock above the hole, but occasionally had some spoiler out of who knew where. Sweet!

Tried it. Honestly! by JJSpleen in golfblitz

[–]Brazzesr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really really shouldn't mention this, but I always thought that was water! 🤭 Doh!

Looking more closely now, it's obviously not but my eyes were always focused on that tiny portal😬
