The Cable Mohel arrived today!
 
My Cable bill will go from $175 per month down to $85 per month. Turned in my remaining two boxes and only have Internet. I use VOIP for home phone. Dropped the cable VOIP several months ago to get rid of their modem.
 
I just noticed that Amazon is now pairing a Digital Antenna with the FireTV and offering a discount when purchased together.
 
I continue to experiment with Kodi and adding the AddOns to access the Torrents that are out there.
 
To be continued!

Yep, I did that when I cut the Cable VOIP. Saved $10 per month as you said and purchased Modem from Costco for $80. It works great. The only thing you need to make sure of is that the modem you purchase is on the Cable Company's "approved" list.
 
Then you need to call them and give them MAC Address and Serial Number of Modem and you are good to go....

Thanks to all the forum members for their input.
 
Here is the latest update on my cord cutting activity:

Decided to try new "digital antenna".
 
Used the following website to determine distance to transmitters. http://www.antennapoint.com.
It is about 37 miles.
 
The digital antenna should arrive today from Amazon. AmazonBasics Ultra Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna, 50 Mile Range (Latest Version).
Will test reception out to see if worth keeping antenna or not.


Successfully downloaded and installed Kodi on an existing Fire TV Stick.
Rather involved process, but it worked.
Successfully downloaded and installed FireStarter so I could access "side loaded" applications.
 
Added Genesis and AddOn Installer.
Continuing to do research on other AddOns.

NYClocker, you tag line is spot on! I still have the ability to surprise myself!!!
 
Updates to follow on progress... The scissors are out...
 
Hey, is this like a "cable circumcision"?

Finally! A decent New Year's motivational.

Eh...be careful of torrents. There are more bugs & viruses in them than the Continental Baths in 1974....

I would be interested in hearing from the august members of this forum how they have have cut the Cable TV cord.
 
My provider (Comcast) won't allow customers to take advantage of newer cheaper rates if they "downgrade". So basically they make it next to impossible to save money by reducing services.
 
I'm tempted to cut out all TV and just go with high speed Internet.
 
How do you access "broadcast" TV via Internet? I don't feel like climbing on the roof to install antenna.
 
Happy New Year! Let's make 2016 the year of cord cutting!

Remember to start early though!

However even autoclaving may not destroy prions.
 
Here's a nice article. The suggestion of going to a tattoo parlor is helpful. But then again once everything is sterilized, it would be difficult to find a sterile container at home to put them in unless you obtained those bags they put surgical instruments in at the hospital and autoclave in them.
 
STERILIZATION VERSUS DISINFECTION

http://chemistrytwig.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/boilingwater.jpgDoes boiling sterilize? I asked my organic chemistry professor this in the lab and the answer is no, boiling water does not sterilize. That’s not to say that it’s not a good method of killing bacteria.
 
So then, what’s the problem with putting things in boiling water to sterilize them? While many bacteria is killed, the vegetative spores usually are not. The same is true for fungal spores. Just when you think you’ve killed them all the spores come out of their comas and infect you.
 
What if boiling is the closest thing to a proper sterilization method you can achieve at your home? Well, here are some tricks:
 

Keep items in boiling water for long periods of time (even an hour)
Rest the tongs you will use to remove the items halfway in the boiling water (it’ll disinfect the contact point of the tongs).
Let the boiling water and items inside cool down and sit for awhile, then re-boil! It’ll kill some of those vegetative spores that decided to wake up.

Most of the time boiling is an effective method of disinfecting items in a household and even for some elementary experiments. As long as you’re not piercing something, puncturing any part of your body, or administering things to a very ill person, boiling will usually do the trick.
 
Need something sterilized? Go to your local tattoo or piercing parlor and ask if they can sterilize the item in their autoclave.
