What do you *do* online these days? Where do you spend the most time? - eviltoast

reddit is shit and makes me annoyed, twitter is shit and makes me annoyed, tiktok is shit and makes me annoyed, pure news sites are boring, cracked is dead, google doesn’t work anymore, lemmy is only memes and news and fairly slow

i feel like i used to be able to sink into an activity on this machine, but now i just spend 5 minutes somewhere, the algorithm runs out of content, i get annoyed and go somewhere else, same process happens. i feel like i have amnesia, i used to enjoy this but i have no idea how.

    You just don’t buy any dish, you have think what you want to watch/receive, then pick the right size dish, and then you have to pick a receiver. Not me, but many users have more than two boxes for many reasons.

    Once you have these, then you have to choose if you gonna have a motorized dish or stable with more than 1 LNB’s. Motorized dish is good because you only need 2-3 cables, but there is a delay when you switch satellite, seconds or minute until it turns to the right position. While stable has more job and cables to have, while switching satellites/channel is instant. wave frontier is considered the best dish, as it can see/get lots of sats with its size the way it is(needs a lot of lnbs and cable!).

    Some people switch receivers every time a new one is out(not many the last years).
    FTA is good, but people still trying to crack scrambled channels.
