It's a 3 way tie between Back in Black, Led Zeppelin II and Wish You Were Here.

Where I live I have a choice between symmetric 1Gbps Bell, ~100/20Mbps Starlink or a local wireless provider that sells packages up to 50Mbps down and unspecified up, but is actually more like 5Mbps.
I'll stick with Bell.
It has no bridge mode. It has a DMZ function, but it is not reliable. I just use it as a router and dhcp server. I use my own access points for wifi. Unless I use a VPN they can see all my traffic anyway so I'm not really losing any privacy by using their router.
Sometimes you have no choice. I'm on Bell Canada fibre and as far as I've been able to determine there is no way to connect to that fibre other than their modem/router.
On a Commodore64?
I recently learned this, and changed mine to English only. I still see non-English communities in All. I suspect it's up to community owners to set the language of their community and a lot don't?
Nothing that exciting. I just live in a very small community, quite a distance from any larger community, and I'm pretty sure that at the scale of that map - my community doesn't exist. If I zoom in enough, maybe there's something there, but I think it's digital compression artefacts.
I don't think I am - and I do like it.
India has 17% of the world's population - on a scale like this image, that's not far off "about half"! It looks right to me.
This argument goes around and around every time someone says ACAB. There is a culture of protecting your own in police forces - it seems to happen all around the world. This culture causes otherwise good cops to overlook actions of their peers that shouldn't be overlooked. If you let someone get away with something illegal, when your job is to uphold the law, then you are not doing your job and are really not a good cop after all - you're just as bad as your peers. ACAB is a much simpler way of saying all that.
I'm really dismayed by your political system - I can't put into words how much it disturbs me. I know it's a good thing that the Harris Walz campaign is doing well, but all I hear when seeing news like this is how much money politicians are taking from "average" people to give to insanely rich advertising firms, to develop ads, and even more insanely rich media corporations, to run them. It's messed up.
Up until now I've only seen suggestions for content offered by the various streaming services. Today I started getting ads for a Hyundai car!
I tried to log a support call with Sony but they said they couldn't do anything without a photo of the offending ad. I now have a photo so will try again tomorrow. I know a single support call won't do anything (though I intend to be very persistent), but if enough people log formal complaints maybe Sony will "talk to" Google.
I know this is deep first world problems territory, but I feel really betrayed having a device I paid $2,300 for being used to shove ads in my face.

This makes me so angry. I have a nice Sony TV that I paid a lot (for me) of money for in 2021. Since I bought it they've been sneeking in more and more ads - when I bought was just when they started with the viewing "recommendations" (even though the things they recommend were often on services I didn't subscribe to), then some of the recommendations started to be for Kia cars etc. and now just last week we got a fucking full screen, with volume, ad for a McFlurry when we turned it on!
I'll be pulling my old NVIDIA shield out soon. I'm hoping there is an ad free android tv I can flash onto it and put the TV permanently on HDMI 1.
