WTF? Does no one else appreciate the convenience of having the TV schedule for the entire season in 10 or so lines in a simple text file?

Not sure if serious?

No.

CBS Sports on my phone with alerts and an actual tablet that lets me follow the games.

OK, that explains that.

 

See, I don't have a phone (other than a standard hard-wired copper land-line) or other mobile device, never have and never will because I refuse to let any phone rule my life or any portion of it.

 

I spent many years on phones doing business. I don't have to do that anymore.

 

I also refuse to provide any personal information to Google or anyone else. I couldn't give a crap less about Facebook or any other "social media." I don't tweet sh!t.

 

Which makes me a crusty old-fart, right? 

 

Yup, but I started writing code in 1967, before most of you here were born. My high school had a paper-tape teletype terminal hook-up to a Pillsbury mainframe computer --  which probably had less power than what sits routinely on everyones desk today. And about 6 of us who gave a sh!t about it. I started building my own CPUs from parts in the mid-'80s. Code that I wrote in the '80s enabled me to retire 20 years ago.

 

Now, I watch Marlins games on a 60" and don't want to bother consulting some on-line schedule to determine when a game starts, so I reduce it to a few lines that can be kept in any text file.

 

I won't bother with this next year.

Such a grandpa story right there. You've probably told it 100 times and I look forward to pretending I haven't heard it again. Love u gramps.

100 times?

 

Nah, maybe twice. Doesn't matter. Not having need of work is optimal.

So having a phone makes you a slave to it?
