Any porn?


oh hell yea

about 400 hours

I set it up like a TV series

So far I have 13 seasons with each season having roughly 22 episodes. I won't download any porn less than 30 minutes long or if I do I compile the shorts one into one long one that just has no plot whatsoever

I've pretty much quit watching the news.

Reddit keeps me up to date with whatever I want to know.

So TV for me is pretty much binge watching and live sports.

And since I have the shitty cable package now, I've also noticed that I don't watch TV in the living room anymore.

I bought a 40" TV for the bedroom ($149 - holy hell TV's are cheap now) and I watch most of the TV in there now

Yeah, I'm not really the download and save type. I did that with Limewire and I now have thousands of mp3s I never listen to. I just hate having to wait for an app to load. Kodi seems to move slowly from folder to folder even before I start streaming. Is that common?

I haven't really got a handle on what slows Kodi down.

I think its all the stuff is has to update behind the scenes. All those add-ons. They get new version releases like twice a week.

actually $35

heh...that was good

wife and I tried to watch The Ranch - maybe it gets better - the show wasn''t actually bad, I laughed quite a bit but the laugh track drove me crazy. I couldn't make it to the end of the first episode.

We have started watching Preacher. That's a fun show.

EcAT... are you sure you don't want a vacation in California? near wine country, Gold discovery park, Tahoe, San Francisco?--then your wife and I could take a day shopping while you fix my TV up to get British channels!

this weekend our washer died.

normally I'd take a stab at trying to fix it, but we were coming off a long weekend with a pile of dirty clothes to the ceiling and I'm knee deep in other projects, so I decided to take advantage of some 4th of July sales and go get one.

Get the thing home and hook it up - works like a normal washer, but then I notice its got some bars on the front panel - this thing has built in wireless. Get to reading up on it and you can download an app which lets you start and stop it from anywhere in the world, if you ever see yourself in a life and death situation where you need your washing machine started now.

But then I go out to IFTTT and grap a "recipe" that has it send a song when the wash is done. I chose "dirty deed done dirt cheap". Anything that you can do IFTTT, you can run it thru a hub and then to Alexa, so now if I want I can say "Alexa, turn on the washer"

not that I'll ever do any of that. Finally , now that its connected to Amazon via Alexa, supposedly it can track the amount of detergent I use and automatically order more when I'm low.

I'm taking that knowitall sumbitch back

also, the guys at work are addicted to this site called bidfta.com

basically its an auction site for local stuff that has been returned - damaged or whatever , so anything with a motor or electronics, you probably want to stay away from but other stuff you can get some steals on

there is no shipping, you buy it and then go pick it up at a warehouse location - whatever is closest to you
