Where do you live that Antarctica is "up"?

It's only an interruption if you're already busy and productive. This method helped me when I was going through a particularly bad period and couldn't get anything done. The end of the Pomodoro wasn't and interruption, but a goal that I was relieved to reach.
Once an end-to-end, encrypted, connection is established between a pair of peers then anything can be sent through it. The establishment proces is generally facilitated by a server of some description so neither peer needs to allow inbound connections. (I'm a long, long way from being an expert on this and happy to be corrected - but this seems like network fundamentals?)
When I was shopping for brakes, years ago, lots of told me SLX has all the quality/power of XT or XTR but they're a tiny bit heavier and don't have the prestigious badge. I went with SLX and have been very happy.
Wow my memory is bad - I'd forgotten I had seen them live until I read this. I had to look up their tour history to figure out that it must have been the Momentary Lapse of Reason tour. Listening to their albums now I much prefer the earlier stuff, but they still put on a good show in '88.
I don't know Bauhaus well - Bela Lugosi's Dead was on a mixtape I got from someone, and I enjoyed it, so I listen to them a bit. But I imagine they would be awesome live - I'm jealous.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, supported by Screamin' Jay Hawkins, at the Coogee Bay Hotel in 1985, or maybe '86.
Arrived nice and early, just the right amount stoned, and got right up front leaning on the stage.
Agree the editing looks good, but I don't feel the template fits. I don't think the orange one is capable of the realisation and self reflection depicted in the last panel.
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.
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.
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.
Silver fox enjoying the sun in my yard. Photo is a bit soft because I had to shoot through a dirty window.

So, it sounds like this isn't expected behaviour? Now that I've gone looking for examples, I can't find any. Maybe there was some temporary problems yesterday..
