Hawks played the last 2 games like a decent team, then played 2 periods like crap today...only to win it in OT.

TIL - The top team in all of NCAA Football for playing in games decided by 1 score - Northern Illinois Huskies (60 as of today's game). #2 was Texas Longhorns.

I don't get this, the last thing I was listening to in the car was "Breakfast with The Beatles" (WXRT). Why this is stuck in my head makes no sense.

5 min with ESPN GameTracker: IT'S A 36 YARD RUN BY THE QB FOR A TD... No wait, it's only a 9 yard run by the RB... No wait, IT'S A 36 YARD RUN BY THE QB FOR A TD... No wait, the other team has the ball and scores a TD.

Chicken Lo Mein & Pan-fried Potstickers.

I did do some deeper digging yesterday. It seems the scam is that there are cheaper boxes out there that will do the same thing. I thought I read in one that SuperBox is preprogrammed with BlueTV, but other sites stated that the company doesn't name what they use to access content. It's odd that Amazon & Walmart are allowing the thing to be sold on their platforms. People who have the box seem to run 50/50 on whether it is worth it or not. There were a disheartening number of DitBs (Dead in the Box) where the purchaser couldn't get any response from the manufacturer/seller when they bought it direct from them. I also found out a little about Real Debrid & Streamio, quite the wild west out there.

I've been skimming through the propaganda and am trying to figure out: a) how this could in any way be legal? b) is it worth it? c) isn't net security an issue? It does seem too good to be true, so I figure there's a "but..."

It may sound weird or like sour grapes, but Russian (which I took in college) is more guttural, Ukrainian is more lyrical. I had read that once & thought "sure", but it actually is true. "Your Poems" sounds like "vashy vershy", "fresh food" is "sveezhya eezhya". (and a Russian wouldn't understand it)

So, Ukrainian! After all, there's a few people in the world trying to eradicate it. Plus, Cyrillic is pretty cool.
