Why would you not need a VPN still?

Not on Stremio. Kodi is what I use for sports.

Yeah I unfortunately live in Alberta and many of us are absolutely embarrassed by our provincial leadership. We almost voted them out in May, but we are still working through the problem of many old voters have always just blindly voted Conservative and never critically analyzed what was going on. As someone else said, these are not the same Conservatives we have always had and the Wildrose party merger put extremists in charge of the party. I’m hoping we can ride out these 4 years hopefully more or less in one piece and get these guys out later. The fact that they are trying to sneakily move us to private health care though and are actively doing things to drive young people away, like grossly inflating house prices to drive up boomers returns on their properties, makes me skeptical that I will still be living here come next election. Sadly this does not boad well for renewables in this province forsure and we will likely be living in denial that oil and gas will always be a dependable industry.

This is a great coincidence for me as I have been getting into retro gaming and emulation so I have been enjoying going back and playing games I loved as a kid on the GBA, Gamecube, and PS2. Tops right now are Simpsons Hit and Run, Pokemon Emerald, and Super Mario Strikers. It’s amazing how well older games can be emulated to the best versions you have ever played of them today.

I’ve always thought it would be fun to print out a bunch of stickers with sayings like, “I suck a driving,” and slap them on shitty drivers cars. The main opportunity I see for this is when you are trying to cross the street and a car is pulled up in the sidewalk, forcing you to have to walk behind their car. As you are passing you could slap a sticker on their trunk. I think it would be a funny thought of them to find that later and realize they have been driving around all day or week with that thing.

I am in the last semester of my studies which I resumed again because my current job had no room for growth. It was a huge amount of money that had definitely upgraded my knowledge and abilities, but I’m not convinced it will translate to a better job, at least right away. Will probably take 6-12 months to find a better role I am anticipating

Can I ask what your parts you used for your build? I’ve been enticed by the PC route as well because of the same bs from PlayStation you have outlined here. Everytime I look at building a PC I get overwhelmed by all the options though

What if you are using Hue bulbs with Home Assistant. Works totally local and not connected to the internet. How are they going to enforce those to go online?
