I've been playing with it and it's pretty cool. It's like having rabbit ears, but over internet. Apparently it's legal. I was watching the playoffs on it, but I'm wondering if someone from Green Bay or Wisconsin in general logged in what market it would put them in. I'm in the Chicago market, but it only used my location once and saved it. So I'm wondering if I drove to Wisconsin, logged in and saved my location, if I would get their local channels and have Packers games year round. I'd guess they're grabbing your location off your IP. Might work with a VPN. I've never tried it though. Might give it a test today because antenna reception on my TV is terrible and I can't justify paying for cable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird, it asks for location on your phone, then you download it on the fire stick and open it and it tells you to go to the website on your phone and punch in the code in the screen. As far as I can tell it only checked location when I first signed up. But so far it's great. I have an antenna stuck in the window and the reception is choppy, with this it's all internet and i was getting really good picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say try a VPN, but the closet option you'd probably have available to a Wisconsin market is Chicago, and you are already there. I'd make the drive into Wisconsin and see what's what.

Leader Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Pretty sick eh? A person in Maryland lured at least 10 seagulls with popcorn—then ran over them with their car. Hope they can get the guys license plate on a surveillance camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I rarely get mad but if people don't stop stealing my spot at the bar by my house soon every ******* time I go smoke I will finally go postal. Every single ******* night, I can leave 60 things on the bar, beer on the seat, anything. I'm such a beta cuck bc I just let them have it and then I'm sitting next to a world class loud stinky drunk ****. I'm legit going to start bringing thumbtacks. It used to be a joke but it isn't anymore. And I'm going to lace them with ricin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the huge image of the seat-stealer's butt-crack appears in those sights, just think "For what You are about to receive, I will be truly thankful" and squeeze the finger. No-one likes a smart-arse and the seat-thief will surely have the smartingest arse around. Edited January 7, 2020 by OneTwoSixFive 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the bartender just moves my **** and she knows better. It wasn't so bad except I had to sit next to this ****er I hate and I hate like 5 people on Earth but somehow I have to sit next to one every time this happens. He's a little barely 21 year old dbag too. Gets drunk and beats his chest about how great he is. Why I keep coming here.... I need to move further away from bars lol Edited January 7, 2020 by Norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
