    Oh boy, literally everything. I've been in my house practically 24/7

    The only problem with Netflix outside of the US (and same for Prime really) is that it's pretty empty, Canal+ owns most of the rights to everything in France so all you get on the streaming services is just a load of cobbled together crap, that takes time to find the gems.

    Isn't that what VPN's are for? I have SurfShark and if I want to watch
    as if I were in the UK (or other countries) I can just tunnel out through there.

    You can use a VPN for that, but I don't think they really want you to do that.. In some cases, I think it might be technically against their terms of service, or perhaps even illegal (though I'm not sure, so don't quote me on that).

    I live in the US, but I've thought about using a VPN for viewing content on Amazon Prime or Netflix from other countries though..

    If it is then practically every Youtube channel that I watch that happens to be sponsored by SurfShark, Nord or some other VPNs is breaking their ToS and sharing that with the world... I watch a lot of travel and Van/Car/Boat/RV dwellers.

    I assume he's talking about "Cuties" about which the filmmaker said "Our girls see that the more a woman is overly sexualised on social media, the more she's successful. And the children just imitate what they see, trying to achieve the same result without understanding the meaning, and yeah, it's dangerous." She says that although watching the film may be difficult, it is important to have a conversation in society about these issues. (from Wikipedia)

    Because the film is about adolescent girls caught up in trying to mimic sexualization from the media, it was immediately accused of promoting pedophilia.

    Yeah, that's what he was talking about.

    Honestly I don't watch much other than comedy specials on Netflix. I have a hard time watching movies because it's rare to find one that isn't re-using an old story that I've seen elsewhere. If it has enough of a twist or brings in an interesting element I'll try.

    I rarely make it through a feature film uninterrupted.

    Most dramaic films can pretty much be modelled as good .vs. bad. Or, some protagonist/vigilante/hero "against the system". End of story.


    I rarely make it through a feature film uninterrupted.

    Me too. I can stop a film at any point and feel perfectly fine to pick up where I left off days later. Except for Breaking Bad and Osark, the urgency and suspense to finish a story is seldom encountered lately.

    "idp" is "i2p" with a typo. Shame on me.

    i2p is an anonymous network / darknet. It is created by a mass of nodes ran by its users. Traffic is encrypted in such a way that it is very difficult to track who is doing what within the network.

    Torrenting seems to be the most popular activity within the network by a laaaarge margin. Being an intra-darknet, you can only access services available within the network, so the i2p torrents are actually torrents available within i2p only for the most part.

    Isn't it cool?
