The Bazaar in Destiny 2, just so I can see the view of the rest of the city.

Albion in The First Descendant. The place is usually pretty busy and plenty of things to do, people to chat with.

I was going to post similar but, you nailed it. OP needs to figure out what they do online and find the places where people connect doing those things.

Random cruft… what else could I drop!! 🙂

You may also want to check some of the online Asian food stores / distributors. Sometimes you can find things like that. I know Boksu Market (not affiliated or promoting, just mentioning) has a lot of interesting snacks. Not sure they have exactly what you are looking for though.

fair, but I’d argue no one can go back in time with out any consequences. even OPs first bullet could have consequences through “meet the man and musicians”. did we not learn anything from Back To The Future 😀

I’d go back to “old enough to understand but still young enough to do something about it” me and have a nice long conversation 🙂

Pocky Sticks… so many Pocky Sticks!!

Thanks for posting this! Didn’t know the original was not maintained anymore.

Appreciate the response / information. I’ll check k it out!!

Serious question, what would be a recommended alternative?

Appreciate the details on Infuse. Still looking at all the options, thanks for the response!!

Thank you for the info on these. As I figure out what I want to do, I will keep these in mind! Sounds like some good stuff.

Agreed, Apple is not above scrutiny on the privacy front. Appreciate the response.

Appreciate the info / response. I’ll have to check out alldebrid, stremio, and torrentio; those are new to me.

I will give this a look, appreciate it!

Thank you! I’m going to start looking at the Synology NAS devices. I have one of their routers which I really like so the NAS stuff should be similar (fit, finish, interface, etc.).

Appreciate the comment. The Roku seems to be pretty popular and luckily it’s just me, so I can experiment.

Thank you for this! I’ll look more at the Synology NAS devices and see what that’s all about. I’m probably the other way around, stream more, and emulate once in a while.

Yeah, a sad side effect of the subscription/advertising economy. Current TV has as much of that turned off, that I can find at least. Although I haven’t gone full “remove everything from the network”, yet 🙂

Adding that to my to-do list for research, thank you for the post!!
