   Regardless, I think when he gets off of the belt, he’ll need to put on a new pair.

   This must be Rings of Power Season 2. The first season was a total flop, so they’re cutting costs for season 2.

   I thought Uranium breaks down into lead, not gold.

   Zig, drag it into your house, clean it up and say you found it in the basement. Who would know?

   Even easier and cheaper, just say you found it in your basement, must have been left by the previous owner.

   I seem to recall that this came up in a court case a few years ago and the court found that the homeowner DID own the airspace above his property up to 100 feet, therefore shooting down a civilian drone (important distinction, a law enforcement or other government owned drone would still be illegal) was found to be legal because the drone was well below the 100 foot height. I believe this drone was one of the ones that was too small to require FAA registration, which may also have played a part in the decision.

   I’m not hard of hearing, I can listen to the TV at levels 10 and below (I believe it goes up to 100) for most TV shows, made for TV movies, sports and news, but it’s the formally theatrical movies (whether streamed, on cable or played via a media) that cause the issues and it’s all movies, old, not so sold, and new (a couple of years old or less). I have other family members who are hard of hearing and when we go to visit them, their TV’s are entirely too loud for my hearing.

   Oh, and when I mentioned the volume limiter, I remember it being specifically marketed for limiting the volume of commercials, which in the mid to late ’90’s and into the early 2000’s was an issue. Most commercials are OK, volumewise that is, today there are some, especially if I watch something off of Youtube on my TV. However, I thought it could also work with the loud sound effects when they pop up right after a dialog scene when watching movies.

    I have checked all my TV’s settings and there are minimal setting for the audio. I think I’d have more control if I had an external speaker like a sound bar, but since I am using the internal TV speakers only, I can’t see any real setting to change. I had hoped there’d be some pre-set and not have to tinker with the bass/treble settings (which I think I can do, I’d have to check again).
