I've been happy with mailbox.org for years, too, yeah.

My only complaint is their WebDav experience is...just not very good. It's probably that I wanted a sync client and not a webdav client. But it wasn't quite standard (iirc) so getting everything configured was a pain...

I remember really enjoying Run, Lola, Run. But I haven't watched it in years...

My brother despises big phones and cannot tell the truth...

It totally happens. And sometimes, the sync is just...slow. Glad it's working now.

Add in redlining and you've got yourself a good ol' American suburb!

My HOA requires a "percentage of green space" which most people have interpreted as lawn. Primarily because it is cheaper (and less effort) to just slap down some Kentucky blue grass and a sprinkler system than it is to plant native plants.

If you violate HOA rules, they can put a lein on your property (fine you) and, in extreme cases, you can be evicted.

Why do HOAs have this power? Property values.

So down at the bottom, what's the reason for the homogeneity and isolation of suburbia?

Laziness and greed.

This is definitely a long shot, but I figured I'd start somewhere...

I saw today that Look Homeward, Angel entered the public domain. I remembered my dad really liking the book (and I remember bouncing off it myself years ago). In reading the Wikipedia article, I noticed there was a TV Movie made of the play adaptation in 1972. I thought, "Sure would be cool if I could find that movie somewhere. My dad might enjoy seeing it!"

What I'm stuck on: All searching I've done so far has just lead me to streaming services/etc. that have a page for the show (with the exact copy as the IMDb page...) but don't have the actual show to watch.

Does anyone know how to search further? I thought about reaching out to my local library (which I couldn't do today), but beyond that, I'm a bit stumped. Too trained on more recent/less obscure stuff, I guess.

Edit: The Paley Center maybe has something? (Although they said it was aired on CBS) https://www.paleycenter.org/collection/item/?q=cbs&p=31&item=T79%3A0070
