From Relay FM, this is Upgrade Episode 399.

Today's show is brought to you by Squarespace, Dordash, and Member4.

My name is Mike Hurley, and I'm joined by Jason Snowhide, Jason.

I'm Mike Hurley.

Welcome back to the Upgrade program.

I'm very happy to be here, and I come with me bearing a Hashtag SNL talk question that

comes from Peter, who says, Jason, you did your cord cutting when you went through that,

and you cut all the cords.

Did you add a cord, an ethernet cable to your Apple TV box, or are you just using your

home Wi-Fi?

I just want to clarify, when people talk about cord cutting into metaphor, because you

don't actually cut the cord, because there's still a, well, I did cut the cable TV cable,

but there is now a fiber optic cable running into my house.

It's not like I actually cut the cord.

It's a metaphor.

Apple TV boxes have been wired with ethernet for a long time now, because it's more reliable,

and if I've got any device that can be wired with ethernet, I wire it with ethernet, because

it's more reliable than Wi-Fi and faster, and so, yes, my Apple TV has already had ethernet.

I didn't add it.

It already had it, and that is for reliability from the outside, and also for speed on the

inside, because I do have a Plex server, so it is going to be, you know, the Plex stuff

can come down faster than stuff from the internet, so, yes, that's why.
