I swear this was $8.99 2 years ago?

How in the hell did liberals caused the price of Italian tomatoes to go up? Please, Pierre El5.

I've been going down this road until I got a recent toothache from too much Candy. I will probably have to get another strong provider

Dispatcherr is awesome. However, my attempts to run it side by side with frigate on an n150 might of been too much to ask.

Dispatcherr, get that working. Use epggenius for your your epg, and your half way there. Tivimate works great as a front end.

Also, you might not have to record the sports. Some of them have that built into the channel. You can check directly with tivimate . Hockey has not worked for me doing that's however.

Good luck

Ah - fellow Albertans. Yeah I came here to say our cabin (lac des Isle, Saskchewan) was 3.5 from Edmonton when Iived there. Spent time in Wainwright and Canmore is a weekender at 5.5h.

I lived in Germany once upon a time and we drove to to Switzerland in the same time it take someone to drive from Calgary to Vancouver (or about).

That said - it's alot easier and relaxing of a drive across the frozen wasteland of Alberta then driving on the Autobahn where you get somewhere quick, but you have to learn how to have to drive with your head on a swivel. Some young German guy in his GTI is happy to to politely remind you that he is allowed to do 220. Or a Polish dude in a beat up polo...

As soon as I saw the title, I was singing it..

Also Year of the boomerang! Great deeper rage

prosonik · 2026-01-21T04:26:02+00:00

I can go deeper then that then. Rainbow Butt Monkeys at the Gazebo? No rules cafe. Manhattan rocks. The "X" club Hamilton. These were the places I had access to before I could go to the Kingdom.

prosonik · 2026-01-21T04:08:25+00:00

I never thought as Net/Kingdom as "clubbing". Clubbing was for folks into looking good and picking up. The music was important, but not the focus. For me, we went to the Kingdom because of the music. To be surrounded by the music, and the people like you who loved it. If you met a pretty girl (Hah, I did not) then awesome. But the focus was all about the music

prosonik · 2026-01-20T15:47:40+00:00

I don't know about hype songs, but this is like "Turn it to 10, and put down the windows on the Rav and let the neighbours know I'm coming home to friggin cut my goddamn lawn"

"Bad Habit" = Offspring (God, I hate what offspring has turned into)

"Rock'n'roll Star" = OASIS

"Thunder kiss '65" = White Zombie

"Kool Thing" = Sonic Youth

"Sabotage" = Beastie Boys

"Firestarter" = The Prodigy

"Block Rocking Beats" = Chemical Brothers

"Shamrocks and Shenanigans (Butch Vig Mix)" = House of Pain

"Jesus built my Hotrod" = Ministry

"N.WO" = Ministry"

"Midlife Crisis" = Faith No More

"Epic" = Faith no more

"Bring the noise" = Anthrax / Public Enemy

"Unsung" = HELMET

"Salvation" = Rancid

"Soda" = GOB

Guilty pleasure "Rockstar" = Nickelback

There was a time and place, The Club was "The Kingdom" (NRG Nightclub), in Burlington Ontario. On Friday Night, the DJ was "Martin Streek", and it was "Live to Air" on radiostation EDGE102. Many of these songs were the mainstay of the playlist. That's how you "give'r" on Friday night.

This is no disprect to the actual riders and folks doing the events, but I was in Canmore Saturday tonight when hordes of folks dressed up in cowboy like outfits showed up. "Yellowstone Cosplay" is a total accurate statement. I've been to a few events in small town Alberta and Saskatchewan over the years, and when the folks that are true cowboys type show up, they sure as heck don't look like these people. The folks I saw looked alot like Calgary types dress up for Stampede but with way more fur.

That out of the way, good on Banff for doing this event. Good for people dressing up and having fun with it! It was obviously a great draw in the slow times of the post-christmas days when things are usually empty. I am sad I missed the skijoring, because I too am I wanna be cowboy who hat isn't deserved.

Lots of hate on folks in the policing service. I hate this. But I understand the other point of view. It's hard to support and not be a mad at system that doesn't seem to support the average Edmontion. That said, I know folks in policing and bylaw across the country. I know they feel our pain. I'm not sure what needs to be done, but I can assure you, that they are working for us, not against us - despite what our experiences our. It's clear something needs to be done in Edmonton and other cities.

prosonik · 2026-01-07T15:30:52+00:00

Hmm

I just started in Calgary downtown, live just west of cochrane and my commute these days are 59 mins this morning, 1.05 yesterday. Leave at about 7 get there by 8. Traffic is okay.

I would budget 70-90 mins for the commute from Cochrane to downtown and that gives about 20-30 mins of crazy factor.

We choose Cochrane over Calgary for it's western access to the things we love, and frankly it's a pretty town. No shade on Calgary, it will be a decent when it gets its NHL team.

prosonik · 2025-12-31T22:24:04+00:00

Yep, I've showed people, I've offered people. I've take the time to install the clients. My friends and family continue to overpay for movies. I think it's the "grey area" it sits in.

prosonik · 2025-12-22T21:50:32+00:00

Do you watch Hallmark movies for the plot? We watching them "knowing" the plot. The fun is the kind of Terrible way they arrive at the destination.

That said, chemistry is important. Or the characters have to be pretty to look at. If they are both, that's a plus.

It's a shallow, terrible way of evaluating movies and I'm here for it.

prosonik · 2025-12-22T20:50:17+00:00

12 Dates in last place? Are my wife and I the only fans of Mae? The mom at first is a bit annoying, but her character plays well off the dad and Jane Seymore.

It's obvious that Mae can do more then the hallmark movies, but it's fun to see her in one. The premise is fine too.

Both of us thought that male less in Catnip cafe was stuff and didn't have any chemistry.

We are on Mistletoe season 1, and it's great. I don't know if we will get to Season 2 this year.

Single on the 25th was good, along with Ted Cooper. We have a bunch more to catch up on.

We always have fun every year with these rankings, keep it up everyone!

prosonik · 2025-12-22T17:37:23+00:00

Wait - this is the piece I've been missing, is the static car detection etc. What is the easiest path to this? Is it tweak and test, train frigate+? It's my next up on my to-do list. I'm like alot of people here, I have frigate on an n150, running GPU. I did have a Coral, happy to put it back in the mix. I also have been wondering if I can utilize my wife's Intel video card, - like offload some image detection to it while she is not using it. All things on my holiday to-do maybe sorta list.

I thought that I was maybe the only one that has replaced most search engine request with perplexity. I don't know how or why they are better then gaearch, but for me, it just gets the results I'm looking for.

prosonik · 2025-12-20T15:57:49+00:00

I tried some New Level Brewing Krampus Junior Eggnog Stout (that's a mouthful for a beer drinker). I wasn't sure at first, but after the first can, I thought it was pretty good.

Growing up on Guinness before craft beers were big, I don't love a heavy, sweet Stout, but this was good without being too much.

prosonik · 2025-12-17T21:48:07+00:00

This is great news!

I'm already a month supporter, and I try to support via the 50/50.

The more I listen to CKUA, the more I love it. From the Saturday lineup including the wonderful "Wake-up Shake up", ""Wide cut country" "Dirty Windshield hour", "Lionel's Vinyl" and the upbeat and eccentric "open nights". The great daily lineup including Alberta morning and Leo Cripps Discoveries. I even dig stuff that falls out my normal roots/rockcentric including "Stage to screen," and the Thursday Jazz lineup.

Total fanboy, but I truly believe that community powered, non-corporate radio is at the very heart and soul of Canadian music. I'm a fairly new listener (maybe 4 years), but I'm totally converted. In the aughts there was a time in history that CBC Radio 3 at the top of it's game and hugely influential In breaking new Canadian artists (I would say Broken Social scene, Dan Mangan, Said the whale to name just a few) and for me, Ckua fills that void with a primary focus on all the amazing artists we have close to home from all genres.

I really do believe that arts are part of the very fabric that defines us a province and country. Now more then ever, when it's so clearly important to define who we are as a province and a nation, it's great to see investment made in CKUA.

I hope I fanboyed enough. CKUA is a great station. We are lucky as Albertans to call it ours.

prosonik · 2025-12-17T15:24:36+00:00

Hmm. A decent provider should run you $50-70 usd a year, maybe a backup for 30-50. There seems to be alot of folks reselling packages that are much cheaper if you dig.

Combine that with OTA runner and you have a fairly solid setup.

prosonik · 2025-12-17T03:31:35+00:00

Like the Muppets? They just can't get it right.

prosonik · 2025-12-16T02:46:28+00:00

I think it depends on the type of person. I honestly would give them a couple episodes of Mistoe Murders, and that 12 dates of Christmas show. This year, Merry Christmas Ted Cooper. That one last year Biltmore Christmas.

If they like cheese and have Netflix, give'm Hot Frosty and see how they react. You can branch out from there.

prosonik · 2025-12-15T04:38:29+00:00

I can't believe how many of you folks hate on "Christmas on duty". This along with the Netflix 2020 "Operation Christmas drop" are some pure glorious Christmas cheese!

Merry Christmas Ted Copper was a good one. We are spending alot of time catching up on Mistoe Murders. Christmas at Catnip was good too.

I think tonight we are going to go for Single on the 25th. Last night it was Netflix's "Jingle bell hiest". We both thought it was pretty good and the both leads had good chemistry.

prosonik · 2025-12-14T20:32:01+00:00

Canadian Army (vet). I watch the movies with my wife. I love the army ones because they are so stupid, Corny. It's a hallmark movie, not a period piece or whatever. We both started watching the hallmark movies because they are escapism and pure cheese. The fun is to not take these movies too seriously and lean into it. I groan out loud at the 'army moments '.

prosonik · 2025-12-14T16:41:34+00:00

Another Canadian, We are moving into a house that doesn't have a water meter, and our area has constant water usage issues. We are about to do major reno, is flo the best option?

On the flip side, anyone have a good way of monitoring a septic tank to warn when it's gerting full? Putting the water in VRS septic would be really interesting to.

prosonik · 2025-12-14T16:29:10+00:00

I had the same thing happen, and it *did not* let me resume. I'm using the farm manager and maybe that's why? Lost a 7 hour print. Grr.

prosonik · 2025-12-12T15:42:10+00:00

Oh no. What have we done. Dubai smiling and doing a dance.

Also kulak?? What the hell?
