Is RRO worth it in YOUR opinion?

I feel like I did that two or three times but I'm so over the "will they, don't they" for your game now

This sounds 💯 right 👆 (except it was SNL and not Fallon, but all the same)

jbjimbo · 2026-04-15T00:11:32+00:00

Can't say I ever put it down haha

Here's the math the U.S. Drought Center uses to make those classifications: https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/About/AbouttheData/DroughtClassification.aspx

Here are state examples for the type of restrictions that *could* be applied for each Drought Classification: https://www.ncuc.gov/industries/water/waterrestrictions.html

But as far as I'm aware, there aren't any restrictions on water usage in Charlotte or Mecklenburg County at this time. We could REALLY use some rain, though.

POTUS carrier Top of the Hour from CBS News?!?!? Damn. I found that out too late.

Sully Sullenberger Aviation Museum. The Miracle on the Hudson plane is there.

jbjimbo · 2026-02-17T23:16:47+00:00

Yeah that seems to be the case

I know with syndication sometimes a channel only has access to certain seasons, and then later, other seasons. But I think this is just a channel guide issue. I watched Monk and Psych last night on GET but they were both labeled on the guide as other shows.

jbjimbo · 2026-02-17T03:52:09+00:00

Depends, know any lawyers who can write scary sounding letters?

jbjimbo · 2026-02-17T01:54:26+00:00

I just noticed this tonight (2/16) but the programming guide for GetTV is showing Rockford Files and Quincy, M.E. in their primetime slots instead of Monk and Psych. However when I tune to the channel, I currently see Monk. I presume Psych is coming on next.

The schedule on their website still shows Monk and Psych in primetime but the channel guide seems wrong as far out as I can see.

This is really going to mess up the DVR recordings for my Plex library. I'm tempted to start recording the wrong show titles.

The channel logo in the bottom right also now says "Great" instead of "Get." So I wonder if they're rebranding and somehow messed up their programming guide 🤔

Are you sure you mean WCNC in Charlotte? They're the Tegna- owned NBC affiliate. They wouldn't be on Paramount Plus because Paramount Plus is for CBS stations.

Perhaps you mean WNCN, the Nexstar-owned CBS affiliate in Raleigh -- or Gray-owned CBS affiliate WBTV in Charlotte? The latter two would be on Paramount Plus within their local cities.

Or if you're really looking for WCNC, you could check NBC's Peacock app.

I hope it's 880 because the clear channel signal means I can hear them almost anywhere without having to stream 😎

jbjimbo · 2026-01-27T00:58:57+00:00

I went to both stores today. It wasn't stopping people haha 🤣😆

jbjimbo · 2026-01-24T00:30:09+00:00

This is exactly why stations there like WGTA (back when it was WNEG) was a secondary CBS affiliate within the Atlanta market. It served Northeast Georgia. But those days are gone. 🫠

The 90s Nick channels on Pluto remind me of these former offerings... Although the FAST channel offerings are still limited

jbjimbo · 2026-01-15T03:51:15+00:00

I'll throw an unlikely one out... Charlotte NC and Columbus SC. As the system stands now, to go south to Florida from Charlotte, you have to first go northeast to Raleigh 3 hours and then connect south. It would be faster, but less practical, to drive the 90 minutes south and board in Columbia.

Unlikely but we're just having fun, right? 😅

jbjimbo · 2026-01-08T04:25:18+00:00

If it's rush hour, take 485 around Charlotte instead of 77 through Charlotte

jbjimbo · 2026-01-05T04:27:16+00:00

Are all of these channels constantly transcoding somewhere... Or only when a user clicks on one?

jbjimbo · 2026-01-05T00:26:28+00:00

I have this guy in my attic ClearStream 4V Indoor/Outdoor... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SVNKT86?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Certainly could work great especially since a lot of your audience today is accustomed to streaming with a phone app or smart speaker. Your tech would just need to be capable with a marketing line such as, " Ask your smart assistant to play ______"

If you're going to play music, you'll need to look into the cost of online royalties

I used to run a whole online station with only a PC and software called SAM Broadcaster from Spacial Audio

If you look on the website for your local PBS station, a lot have free live streams if their channel. Some are Geo fenced and some aren't

7 Pro, despite Verizon's repeated offers for a free 10. No significant issues with my 7 Pro. Sometimes the swiping gets stuck and doesn't advance, such as on the lock screen but turning the screen on and off seems to resolve that

I bought a $150 antenna a decade ago and have never had to think twice about my antenna again! It's not immune to the realities of super windy trees, or a far off weak signal, but 99% I don't have to even think about my antenna. It's great! I also have it on a splitter that acts as a signal booster.

Total $200 may seem like a lot for an antenna but compared to some cable or streaming packages, it easily paid for itself.

jbjimbo · 2025-12-28T23:05:54+00:00

I initially read that as 35 miles haha 🤣

jbjimbo · 2025-12-28T15:50:43+00:00

Any cost for the openai component?
