    2024 Red Sox Spring Training

    I just peeked into the NESN show tonight and saw parts of 2 interviews. I didn't recognize the first guy, but boy was he lively and positive about the pitching staff. I thought, Who is This Guy? He seemed too young to be a coach. It was Andrew Bailey, a fun guy to listen to. The other guy was...

    PBS Frontline Documentary on the Astros

    https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/documentary/the-astros-edge Premieres October 3, 8 pm. Your local listings will probably vary. The subtitle is: "Triumph and Scandal in Major League Baseball." It probably won't include any info we don't already know about the cheating, and clearly seems aimed...

    Windows 11, Why and Why Not

    Microsoft has started bugging me to change to Win11. I am happy with Win10, now that I've personalized it, and none of the touted features of the new OS appeals to me except "increased security." Are most people using it? Is is possible to move that huge Start Menu off of the middle of the...

    Padres @ Mets

    Scherzer pitching. Game begins @8:07 I just realized that my reason for starting this thread, finding it confusing to follow several games at once, doesn't apply to the evening game. So if people prefer to go ahead and use the existing thread, I don't mind. But mods, if you close this thread...

    Embezzlement at NESN

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/digital-vp-for-red-sox-sports-channel-charged-with-embezzling-500-000-from-network-11643947439 It's complicated, but the guy looks guilty as hell.

    Frozen cursor on Dell Inspiron l764

    This has been going on for two days. Once it freezes, nothing moves. Can't go into Cntl Alt Delete, nothing. Have to push the button and restart computer. Happens in both Opera and Vivaldi browsers. Using a mouse doesn't help. I know the mouse works, but neither the touchpad nor the mouse will...

    Voice Boost Soundbars

    Although my hearing is sensitive in terms of noise, and I never listened to loud rock music like most people I know, I have noticed lately having difficulty getting the dialogue from some movies and television dramas. Apparently this is a common problem. I have been looking at this...

    SSL connection error in Chrome on Nexus 7

    I have a couple of Nexuses, only one of which has worked for years. But even that one was unbelievably slow and frustrating to use. So I restored them both to factory settings, being determined only to use Chrome for the internet, including my mail. No updates, no apps. These are for us to use...

    No-Fee DVR

    We don't like paying any more monthly fees than absolutely necessary, so for years we have owned a Magnavox DVR that we have used for recording both over-the-air (PBS) and Directv (movies and baseball). It was particularly satisfactory for starting and stopping live Red Sox games. It originally...
