I just ordered my first TV ever, and its a smart TV of course. My first choice would be to not connect it to the internet, but my wife wouldn't like that. So i think ill just put it on its own network and block as many domains that it uses to phone home with as i can, without breaking functionality.

I hope you're wrong

I'm using a work profile for Google Play. It was surprisingly easy to setup and there are few guides around. But basically you install Shelter, then clone Apps to the work profile. Open up Apps on the work profile and install google play services normally.

In 2017 I bought a ThinkPad with a hidpi screen, which I knew would give me trouble with Linux. Fortunately the Fedora 26 beta had just been released and was using Wayland by default (I wasn't very Linux savvy to do it myself yet). I've been using Wayland on Fedora ever since without issue.

I think the whole world just adopt a single time. We'd just get used to midday being 9pm and eating dinner at 2am. No more time zones to worry about.

Summer would be the same as it now. It's only winter where we'd have daylight starting later and ending later.

Or you could just go to university in Calgary or somewhere more affordable?

I like wezterm a lot but lately have not been impressed with some breaking changes on the main branch. I know its basically a nightly release, but that's the recommended way to install according to their website. The devs acknowledged it, and recommended using a tiling manager as the fix.

In Canada, at least in a city, it's rare that I can't find things for the same price or cheaper in local stores. Amazon comes in handy for harder to find items though I've been using Aliexpress more for those items lately.

I didn't know about this specifically, but I'm holding onto my 2017 ThinkPad until I can buy an Arm laptop and run Linux on it.

wezterm. Works great on wayland and the documentation is amazing. And it's built in rust if you're one of those people.
