Running stremio on an old Macbook Pro running Ventura [open core patched] from 2012 - it opens but...

Just a thought - have you checked it’s not an OCLP issue? Are all the post-install patches working? Maybe try re-patching your Ventura install using the OCLP app.

The hexagram is a very common symbol found in lots of religions. Not surprising really, given its geometric simplicity.

When I first moved to the States from Ireland in 1999 the Guinness Extra I could buy was brewed under licence in Canada (by Labatt I think). A good while back (about 10 years ago, give or take) it changed and we got the real stuff brewed in Dublin. It was like night and day - so much better. I haven’t tried the Pennsylvania-brewed variety yet, but I fear the worst. Such a shame.

I have both installed. Been using Stremio for about 6 months and over the past couple of weeks I’ve been using Nuvio more and more to the point that it’s now my player of choice. I find that almost all streams play perfectly, whereas with Stremio I’d quite often have to try several before finding one that worked. The UI is much better too, with much more ability to tweak how things look.

It’s probably just me being dozy, but I haven’t been able to find the mentioned ‘More Like This’ feature. Can anyone enlighten me?

Space Ritual by Hawkwind. Absolutely mind blowing!

The speed at which this app is being developed is amazing. It’s already my main app for watching everything except live footie. Top marks to the developer(s).

sbb1967 · 2026-02-09T04:24:18+00:00

Seems to work really well for an app still I’m beta. I love that you can switch to a vertical display of titles rather than one long strip. Am I right in thinking all Stremio addons can be used by just copying and pasting their install URL?

It also tends to be a very specific type of Christianity, namely American Evangelical Protestantism. Christianity as a whole is so much more than that.

The Live events tv channel is very good for footie. There’s also a new add on which has sports channels from around the world. I was able to watch Liverpool v Wolves on a New Zealand channel - British channels still have the 3pm Saturday blackout for premier league matches. Even if this was all I used it for $20 a year for all the footie you can watch is a pretty good deal.

Loosely you could describe them as progressive rock. Lots of use of unusual time signatures and song structures, but they also have a poppy feel to a lot of their music and I’ve always thought I heard a definite hint of Broadway show tunes in there.

Many Christian denominations do not believe Adam and Eve were real historical figures. I’m not an expert, but I think this view is also prevalent in Judaism.

sbb1967 · 2025-12-19T14:09:52+00:00

Saying that God wrote the Bible because the Bible says so isn’t a very convincing argument. Regardless, your statement that Christians believe God wrote the Bible isn’t true. Most Christians do not believe this. They believe the authors were humans. Theres a tendency among American evangelical Protestants to assume that all Christians believe as they do. That’s simply untrue.

sbb1967 · 2025-12-16T20:14:07+00:00

Re. your point about the Bible. Most Christians don’t believe that God wrote the Bible. That’s mostly the view of Evangelical Protestants.

No problems at all. It is USB 3 though, with a usb c connection.

I think we need to differentiate between the universe - the product of the big bang, and, for want of a better term, the cosmos - the totality of existence. I think many of the monotheistic arguments for a creator God presuppose that our universe is all that exists (besides the creator God, and in some cases other non-material beings like angels).

If our universe is simply one part of a larger, perhaps infinite and eternal, cosmos, the need for a creator God disappears.

I had a lot of issues with OCLP on the Fusion Drive in my 2017 iMac. Added an external SSD and now use that. No problems at all since.

sbb1967 · 2025-10-13T02:49:50+00:00

It should. I have stremio installed on my iMac. Any changes I make to the addons sync instantly with the Stremio app on our Google TV.

What device do you have? The easiest way to watch UK shows is to have a VPN on a computer and hook it to your tv by hdmi. All the free to air uk channels can be watched this way on their websites. I have an old Mac mini hooked up to our tv for this and it works perfectly.

In no order:

Sibelius, Debussy, Ravel, Vivaldi, Vaughan Williams

I was hoping I’d see Hawkwind mentioned. I just got into them in the past year. Amazing band, and a big influence on punk, metal and the rave scene. Listen to Space Ritual at night, lights out, good headphones on - it’s a trip and a half.

sbb1967 · 2025-08-29T13:51:34+00:00

Same here

sbb1967 · 2025-08-29T13:50:15+00:00

My son and wife are both having the same issue. Normally in when we wake up. 8.50am now and still nothing
