It's an option because a majority of victims know their killers personally. Now, that may also mean it's scenario 2 or a family member or someone they had a bad business deal with or someone random. And I do take issue with the assumption that those two scenarios are the most likely. But it's not out of the question.

I currently pay $130 for cable and internet with Verizon (was $115 but they raised it recently). Cable package is comparable to youtube tv and the internet is 90 up/down.

But I'm moving and if I want useful upload speeds from Comcast at the new place I need a package that's something like $200+ per month. I'm going with tmobile internet and YouTube tv since it's about $70 cheaper.

Personally, I'd love to just diitch cable. I only want it for hockey and I can get that with ESPN+ and a VPN. But my wife watches it quite bit. She's got a dozen shows on different cable channels she watches religiously.

If you own one house with no mortgage, then the market going up is bad because it's harder to upgrade.

Unless you're retiring and downgrading. For those with families who grow up and move away, the house can be seen as an investment if they intend to move into a smaller space once they're just a couple again.

Of course, that's assuming their kids don't have to move back home because of astronomical rent prices and a sizeable wealth gap...

Slither

Now that's one I haven't heard in a long while. When they open up that barn door and find the one woman...oh boy.

I'm the reverse. I never used Boost for Reddit (relay was my drug of choice) and started with Connect as it was billed as most similar to a lot of the 3rd party Reddit apps. Now that Boost is out I find myself looking it more. I do miss gesture voting though.

Internet options here are pretty damn bleak. I was counting on at least just moving my fios service but that's a nogo as their service ends in the neighborhood across the street from our new house.

Thanks, I'll check them out! She watches all sorts of junk reality TV on lots of cable channels and network dramas. She's also very tech technophobic so I'll likely end up paying to make sure she can access everything from a single interface. Otherwise I'll be called in to help her find her shows every night.

I used an IP camera for my first two, using a baby monitor like yours for the third. I prefer the non-IP monitor too. All the reasons you list, plus reliability. I don't have to worry about my baby monitor crashing in the middle of the night like I did with the IP cam app.

Idle Hands is a classic

90 is plenty for us since we have cable. We've only got about two people max at a time streaming something and it's always at 1080p anyway. The upload speed is actually the bigger deal for me as I play online d&d with video calling and a self hosted virtual tabletop a couple times a week.

Doing won't give us the channels my wife wants, and the place we're moving into is too tree covered for satellite to work well (in addition to new not wanting to deal with it). Thanks for the suggestions though!
