    Watched The Fall. Enjoyed it, but man, that was a serious man-hating feminist show. Felt influenced by the Girl With Dragon Tattoo series of books/movies. Same vibe. Still good. Starting River now, will move on to The Crown after.

    So, a little wish of mine kind of came true


    Once in a while i am out of town at a pad in the woods doing none other than woodsy guy stuff like hunting, fishing, 4 wheeling etc.

    The cell reception can be very spotty, right down to literally where you are standing on the property. Of course there is no phone line run to the cabin either or anything like that, and i never even bothered to get a dish, because i feel im not there often enough to justify the ridiculous cost/extended contract etc.

    I try to make it a goal that when im out there to just out the phone down, turn the tv off, and enjoy the peaceful solitude and nature surrounding me. Nonetheless, sometimes if im there and the evening is winding down, id like to be able to kick back and watch something.

    So recently Netflix announced that you can download some of their content. Great! Pretty much what i was wishing for; except i noticed reading an article that the downloads were apparently only available for ios and Android. My issue is that i will normally hook my laptop up to the tv via HDMI.

    Is there any way to bypass the mechanisms so that i can download Netflix onto the laptop? If not, does anyone have any ideas as to the best avenue to remedy my issue and simply watch something? I mean, i used to do the torrent thing a while ago, but it seems as though its fading and its becoming harder to find the right shows with a good quality picture.

    Ideas?

    Do you have an iphone or android? I think you could stream local media (from your phone) to a Chromecast device without an internet connection.

    Here's the screenshot where whitey looks at me, but I'm not scared and continue to drink beer.

    Forgot to respond to this.

    Thank you, sounds like that might just work.

    honestly though this movie is underrated. it's like a 7/10 on imdb currently but if you're just a fan of gangster flicks its probably more in the high 7's to 8's. If scorsese directs you got yourself a 8+.



    plus everybody wants a 3some these days, this film stars two kunts. one being kuntmissioner and the other being j.depp.

    god bless nicks comedy stop

    ok this is on Showtime but worth watching if you have access to Show:
    http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer...hn-mcafee.html

    Cliffs, Mcafee is a paranoid genius who kept a harem of women in Belize. Forget murdering his neighbor,etc., the most shocking thing in the movie is that is into his various girls, I kid you not, shitting in his mouth! no sex, just shitting....

    Recommend "For Grace". Didn't think a docu about a chef would make me cry.

    Also, I tried to book a reservation for my bday at Grace two months out. No shot

    Finally got around to watching Black Mirror. I fucking love it so far. The writers seem to be borderline Ted Kaczynski disciples in how they portray technology invading our lives.

    I thought the 3% was pretty sick if you dont mind dealing with the subtitles. I usually cant stand them, but for whatever reason they didnt bother me with this show

    My Android which is like 3 years old does hdmi out. You have to buy the appropriate cables but this solution is surely more direct if your phone has that capability.
