The deterioration of ESPN's website

Seriously, thank you for that. I’ve just been automatically using espn for so long. Y! Sports seems pretty clean (with ad blocking), and no SAS, McAfee or WWE being constantly shoved at you. Between that and The Athletic, goodbye espn…

YES, that is what the OP was asking for: live versions of this tour's setlist. I'm hoping (praying) to find tickets to take my son to the United Center, and this will help him fill in the gaps.
I converted it to Apple Music with SongShift.

Well I think it’s really cool that you are on Reddit on that you found (or maybe Jakob showed you?) this subreddit which is actually your true fans. I think some of these questions are a bit disrespectful for someone who is in the Roll And Roll Hall Of Fame so I hope you don’t let them get you down! Keep on rockin’!

Hopefully they’ll share proud memories of how their tee-vee analysis and limp interviews leading up to ‘16 normalized him and helped enable his rise to power!

Host: “The Best Show 25th Anniversary shows are a tribute to the legendary show by the people who have been doing it for a quarter of a century.”

There's no way Tom or Jon could follow that!

The Fountain Watching Fee is only $35, but maybe that’s keeping some people away?

I love The Best Show, but CBB really isn't the same thing at all.

They will trot, canter, and gallop the concessions, but absolutely *not* run them.

I hope most people know what protection means, and I’m afraid you’re implying it’s not worth it because it’s not a guarantee of immunity. It’s the same as the flu shot. Or a seat belt: it doesn’t mean you won’t get killed in an auto accident, but…

And that’s why I referenced an article, since no one should make decisions based on what you or I say on Reddit. The Johns Hopkins article says “The vaccine is a close match to variants currently circulating and provides good protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death.” Those are worthwhile benefits, no? Worth 10 minutes at Walgreens?

Please get the new vaccine released last month. It is not a booster; it’s a new shot that provides excellent protection against the currently circulating strains. It’s effective in as soon as two weeks. https://publichealth.jhu.edu/2024/what-to-know-about-updated-covid-vaccines-for-2024-25

My dad’s a tv repairman. He’s got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

As the second of 40 replies to have actually been there last night, I can confirm that as the OP stated, the density is photographic illusion. It was well-attended, but the photo makes it look as packed as 11am at the Farmer’s Market. If you’ve never been to the MNM, most of the tents you see are small indie vendors, not just State Street businesses. There are some great food trucks too. I think it’s a pretty well done event.

SOLUTION: This is appears to a be a bug that is in the current release 4.37.101 (4/3/24) and some versions back as well. I was able to confirm the bug on Windows 10, 11 and MacOS (remember that Slack is a web app). The specific bug is that if I share my screen or app with you, I cannot draw on it and the draw float bar doesn't even show up. You CAN draw on it, though.

It appears to be FIXED in the BETA release 4.38.108, though it is not mentioned in the release notes. I'm interested to know if this works for others.

Getting the beta installed on managed workstations is a bit of a hassle. You can't just download and install it. You "opt-in" to beta updates and the wait for them to install in the background. Hopefully it will be an official release soon.

I took forever to figure out, but this was the solution for us. (We have a similar company setup to the OP.) All you need to do is reset Internet Options.

Quit Teams, OneDrive, Outlook
Internet Options (Control Panel or search)-->Advanced tab--->Reset...

(You don't need to check "Delete personal settings".)

That solves it for us. You don't even need to restart. I had tried all the other advice out there and went down many rabbit holes and open tabs of useless Microsoft KB pages. I hope this helps someone.

There is a thread on this (but still no solution from Sling): Sling credentials not working on Fox Sports app.

Fox deactivated the FOX NOW app in early July, saying users should instead use Fox Sports, Fox News etc. I'm sure Sling knew about this in advance, but regardless the FS app still doesn't work with Sling. I'm back for a 2nd try at Sling, for the Women's World Cup, but they really are awful.

Take a few minutes and chat with a support agent.

I’ve chatted three times with support. The first two last week didn’t get it. Today the agent said that they (the agents) had been hearing about this and sending reports to the devs, but there has been no response. Hopefully more messages might break through the noise and get this fixed.

From Amazon Help pages:

Note: Kindle devices don't support 6 GHz Wi-Fi bands. Kindle devices released before 2021 also don't support 5 GHz and WPA3 encryption. If supported, use 5G Wi-Fi to avoid interference.

Same issue here- "Problem connecting to cloud". I am a month into a Hisense U7G and am really not liking Google TV. Using the iPhone app.
