The improper testing has plenty of sources. They were trying to speed rush through testing and missed details.

The sexual harassment doesn't have hard sources. It got tossed in there as an afterthought as everyone dog piled him for being popular and the botched testing. No idea if it was really true or not.

Meh, this is something that is hitting all industries, not just games. The raising of interest rates to combat inflation is making it more expensive to borrow money. The car industry is on the verge of calamity because they've priced cars too expensive to go with the new borrowing rates. Dealers (new and used) can't lower their costs because they bought cars under the old interest rates and now can't move them because borrowing got more expensive. Lowering prices too much more means taking a loss. It is hitting every industry. At some point the idiots out there have to realize that 3% inflation isn't the boogeyman they think it is.

I'm looking forward to his two super pacs running out of money and potentially him having the RNC's finances to bankrupt in time for the general election.

The tech industry is the ultimate sheep following sheep industry. Other tech companies laying people off? I better do it too! The Fear-Of-Looking-Stupid.

Building camps with the intent of keeping them in camps. Right out of the playbook. Israel takes all the heat and no one says boo about the appalling conditions they'll be kept in.

Look up antennaweb.org, like others have said.
I use this one: GE Outdoor HD Digital TV Antenna
You don't need to spend big money in order to get a great antenna. There are no specialized antennas needed for HD or 4k. Any antenna claiming range over 80 miles is making, being charitable, dubious claims. If it looks like a dildo, it will be a lousy antenna.

The new wrinkle to the modern antenna game is the transition to digital. You'll need a digital tuner to watch OTA now. Lots of TVs have them built in, so you can plug the antenna directly into them. If your TV doesn't, or you want to stream the OTA channels within your house you'll need a digital tuner like the HDHomeRun Flex 4k (4 tuners built in).

And the same downsides of antennas from back in the day are still a problem today. If you live in a rural area far from the broadcast centers, you'll have trouble picking up signal. If you live in a hilly or mountainous area, you'll have issues. If your local broadcasting areas are all spread out around you instead of one general area, you might have to pick and choose what you actually can pick up.

I mean, you don't even own a TV.

Of course, what the hell are you doing here?

Until ATSC 3.0 is fully adopted. Then, they're going to turn into cable.

I watched on an OTA antenna and an HDHomeRun device.

Whoops, your bias is showing.

Then share your local law. Don't be pissy that Americans are clarifying for other Americans.

This ruling gave him a week to appeal. So everything is on hold until next Wednesday. After that, bombs away.

Edit: Sorry, the deadline is Monday, 2/12.
