   Recently I was complaining again about how due to the proliferating Balkanization of streaming services increasingly things one wants to watch might not be on the service one wants and one isn't about to subscribe to all the services ... and in particular that I regretted not being able to watch any seasons of the best sci fi series out there, Read more... )

I've been feeling bad for people who love sports, because some of the games are being put behind paywalls. It's a horrible thing they're doing, and eventually people will just give up trying to watch these things, or they'll pirate them out of desperation.

Is there a particular benefit for a German passport? Just curious.

I can live and work anywhere in Europe! And so can my future wife! Seriously thinking we might want to move to Spain since she obviously speaks fluent Spanish, but also her medical accreditations more or less automatically are recognized in Spain, whereas it's a lot more complicated here.

Also i no longer have to fear that if i send my passport out for a visa stamp that I'll be unable to travel if it doesn't arrive in time.

And also if visiting Europe i can go through the usually much faster European passports line.

Wow, that would be a change - from Australia to Europe. But it would be lovely as well. Hope all your wishes come true.

I rotate through a lot of streaming services. I'll get a month of Disney+ or Showtime or Apple or whatever, watch what I was interested in, and cancel. I don't know who has enough money to have all of them all the time.

'The Expanse' was excellent. Stunning sets, good acting, good story lines.

I found Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to be really excellent of all the modern Star Trek offerings.
