Is that the software that drives the Shield?

We don’t stream any of the network media channels and don’t have C-Span since we cut the cable. I wish C-Span offered a streaming option for non-cable users. It would be handy for some of the Congressional voting sessions and hearings. We have to rely on free feeds via YouTube, etc.

It’s such a patchwork of options and limitations. Kinda drives me nuts. But we make due. Plenty of entertainment at the moment with our limited selection we subscribe to. And I enjoy reading as well. I just wish there was a very non-partisan, low-cost or free, Non-cable, live streaming service that we could tune to for critical things like January 6th Insurrections, Moon landings, Presidential inauguration's and assassinations, critical Congressional vote counts, etc. I’m 72 and remember the days when Walter Cronkite shared the critical breaking news on my TV. The world simultaneously shared the triumphs and the tragedies. We were connected at those moments. And it felt powerful.
