They're plastic?? I always thought they were rubber.

Gotta love the language here implying he only sees Indigenous people as means to access resources rather than seeing them as normal people whose lives and histories should be respected.

I love the idea! Thanks, I'll try and see what if anything I can sort out.

 

Incredible song by Unleash the Archers, a Metal band that hails from Vancouver.

 

Hopefully this is considered "offbeat". First time posting here.

I'm originally from Edmonton, and I recognize Loyola's name as one that's been in politics for years. I really have to wonder what happened here. Not familiar with Loyola as a person and never followed him much, but this comes as a shock.

 
 

Sole album release by a defunct band from Fredericton named The Names and Faces. Great music.

Must be hard simply being a fiscal conservative in the Conservative party right now seeing the social conservatives botching all the good publicity the party could possibly have had left.

 

Give the song a listen, it's genuinely a banger.

The firmware explicitly states it's for photos only, and I tried my luck using both mp4 and webm formats.

I think you're misunderstanding, the TV's firmware literally states that it can only be used for photos. I tried accessing both webm and mp4 to try my luck, but nothing.

Oh! Is Roku something you can get separately? I always thought it was just a built-in OS on newer TVs.

 

Sorry if this doesn't belong here, more than happy to be pointed in the right direction if it doesn't.

I wanna do movie nights with friends where we watch movies together in the living room on my TV. I have a DVD player and VCR I got from the thrift shop as well as a few movies for both. However, I was thinking it would also be fun to expand the options available by downloading a bunch of public domain movies to play on the TV. Only issue is figuring how I'd work that all out.

The TV lacks any network connectivity features. While it has a USB slot, it can literally only detect pictures and set them up for slideshows. Even tried putting some video files on to test and it won't detect at all. Also because my computer is a desktop, connecting it directly to the TV from the other room is a no-go.

Is there some sort of device that serves this kind of purpose? Like something I can download videos to, and then connect it to my TV in a similar sense you would a DVD or VCR and be able to choose the content on the device using a remote? I'd really appreciate the help and pointers if this is something that exists.

 

Watched this all the time on Treehouse TV as a kid. Apparently it was originally on TVO? Crazy how I remember it so much despite it only having a single season apparently.

 

Figured I'd try promoting the community here. It's only been around a few days, but I would love to make this community an active and thriving one.

 

Came across this band working on MusicBrainz a while ago. Appears they put out some stuff since I last added their works to the MusicBrainz database. Liked this song especially.

Band hails from Calgary.

I'm well aware, just trying to find positive stories to share.

Still don't fully agree. The environmental impact of shipping from overseas is costly, so investing in means to create product here rather than overseas should be seen as a necessity.

We grow tomatoes, cucumbers, cannabis, and some bell peppers in green houses here, and should invest in expanding those options available to Canadian consumers.

As much as I like them, their prices were insane. I get supporting local, but at that price point? Ouch.

Look, if he just left it at saying that the protests were fine but the encampment was not, that would at least be understandable.

COMPARING IT TO THE FREEDOM CONVOY? BRUH
