Does the new fire stick control volume or has a volume up and down button?

I ask because on our prime movies the go from quiet to loud through the movie.

Not sure I understand the question entirely but mine has up and down and controls the volume of the TV itself if it helps. Doesn't matter what I'm watching- Prime, Netflix, or DirectTVNow.

When we watch prime, one minute the show is quiet.

The next it is loud.

We are adjusting the volume all the time.

Most blame it on spectrum cable but don’t see why.

I considered using my built up points for a sous vide but watched a few videos while manning the desk last night and learned how long it takes to achieve temps. As interesting as it seemed at first, I don’t think it’s worth preparing a steak hours in advance.

I have the Joule (not Juul), and I love it. Yeah it's a bit of a setup, but you have a few options:

1) You prep it in the morning, and just turn it on while you're out before you get home so the temp is on point and ready to cook when you're back. You can remotely turn it on.
2) Just cook it in advance, but don't take it out of the sous vide bag. Basically throw it immediately into the fridge. Next day, you just pull it out and let the whole bag and steak soak in super hot tap water. Then, when it's warmed to above room temp, you remove the steak from the bag and do the final sear on it to get it nice and hot and add fresh crispiness. Comes out pretty damn good, not far off from cooking it same day and you can prep. (Works well to prep in advance for BBQs).
3) You can sous vide an entire cooler of meat if you want, so it actually cuts down on cooking time for big occasions when you time it right -- and you don't have to baby it.

I highly recommend it.
