  • In years past, CBC (Canada) had a very nice website with schedules and the videos of full events all organized by event. I don’t recall the coverage being overly edited or filled with fluff commentary or only covering the “big” names/events, but seemed pretty broad and unbiased and boring-in-a-good-way. It was really nice. Highly recommended.

    A simple VPN to a Canada exit point is all you need. And I guess a plugin or script to download the videos if you wanted them offline. But since you can browse to any event on any day and watch when you want you really don’t need to download anything.








  • I saw this a few years ago and it has stuck with me.

    “The economy isn’t talking about me and you, it’s referring to corporations and executives and shareholders and such.”

    The economy could be doing amazing and we have 50% unemployment.

    The economy could also be doing terrible and we have 0% unemployment.

    The economy could also be doing amazing and the workers don’t make enough to survive.

    It isn’t measuring what many people seem to think it is. It isn’t a measure of “how well the average person is doing” at all.




  • Yep.

    I am addicted to my brain functioning normally and being able to accomplish things

    It is terrible for me that I didn’t get diagnosed sooner.

    It made me go crazy with how big of a difference it has made in my life. I went from sluggish trash goblin hissing at the light to a productive wood elf singing and creating great crafts.

    So, yeah, what you said.



  • Same. I played MC in early Alpha when you could play free in a web browser. And then I used a cracked game for another year or so. Once I had adult money I bought it. I’ve since bought it probably 6+ times over between Java, Bedrock, consoles, mobile and accounts for my kids.

    I probably would never have bought it otherwise, or at least not for a long time.
