Yup, just the cheap antenna that came with the TV stick. But it did work with cable before Time Warner / Spectrum switched to cable boxes.

You federated wrong. You're actually on Legume-ey.world

I'll see myself out.

I guess I'm just a cynic, but I assumed this was in reference to a politician who recently received a golf simulator from a campaign donor. He didn't disclose it in accordance with state law concerning gifts over $100, but I'm sure he meant to but forgot.

Or it would just be a random post.

When I was growing up, back in the Paleozoic era, I'm pretty sure it was illegal to have a red light on the front, white light on the back(except for backup lights), and blue or green were illegal anywhere on a vehicle. But all that seems to have gone out the window since then.

Of course any vehicle that's been modified to produce excess smoke violates federal (EPA) and possibly local law, but we see how well that's enforced.

I think these numbers are inflated, but the problem is still pretty bad.

Part of the problem is we have some politicians here that thrive on uneducated voters. Uneducated voters also tend to be more racist, and racists are a really reliable voting block if you speak their language. Also, they tend to believe "news" that corresponds with what they already believe, so social media and telemarketing works really well on them. Abortion and contraception bans increase the number of children born into poverty, who won't get a decent education and will rely on what they learn from their parents or TV.

So education funding rarely gets increased.

We've a got higher share than Win 7 & 8, closing in on OSX. One step at a time.
