Didn’t have many subscriptions (all US are cancelled) and was mostly eating Canadian food already. Swapping now what else is left … what now? I am so mad at the USA I need something else to take my anger out on.

There’s Crave I think? But the deal ain’t that great. There’s a LOT of ads and they’re extremely LOUD.
And the subscriptions are expensive. I’m not going to pay 22$/month just to stop having ads. I don’t need the 4k streaming because my TV doesn’t have that resolution. Besides I only have a 30mbps internet connection that’s already costing me almost 80$. (I should shop around now that I think about it. 80$ is hella expensive for 30mbps)
Yo ho yo ho 🏴☠️
Capitalism turned streaming into cable 2.0; they can pound sand
Yeah. I’ve been torrenting my movies lately and using pirate streaming websites. Or, going to my local library and borrowing movies to then rip and keep on my external HDD plugged into my NVidia Shield. I can watch them with VLC no problem, subtitles, language tracks and all.
I have only heard bad things about Crave, if you want you can go to a channels app and watch show the day after they air. If you do not have an ad blocker the ads get repetitive very fast.
The lineup isn’t great, but the worst part is the app experience.
Yeah, I was watching it from my NVidia Shield and there’s no adblock on there. It’s terrible.
I’m honestly thinking of getting some kind of small Linux box for the TV, but I need something that works with a remote preferably.
I have two pi-holes on my LAN as my DNS servers, I would never go back to not having them.
There are people who use something as simple as a pi 1, it is good enough. I personally have killed so many SD cards using pi 3’s and 4’s, as I use them for so much more than just pihole. I have given away my pi3, and my pi4 is now my CUPS server booting off of a USB NVME drive, yes the 250gb or whatever it is is a little much disk space for a CUPS server. I have two pi5’s with NVME hats, they are both bigger than the pi4 disk and I have been meaning to set them up as file servers on my LAN.
Have you tried using automotive rated SD cards? They’re intended to last in dashcams with tons of daily writes so they might hold up better if you were using normal SD cards.
No, and I have no plans on doing that, I have NVMe drives that are faster and have considerably more storage space than any SD card. In the two pi5’s they are attached via pci3 and with the pi4 it is connected via USB3.
We had crave for a bit over Christmas. Wasn’t overly impressed
