          @Walery-Smirnoff @Alex nailed it. I use it to watch Red Sox games when they're blacked out in my locale.

            @Alex I'm surprised they don't block vpns. what are you using?

            but even with a vpn, I can't access Optus sport in australia. even F1 on YouTube won't play if my VPN is active..

                    Interesting that they don’t vpn block. I wonder if it’s a provider issue or vpn issue. Just renewed my Surfshark. Might try nord or once it’s due for renewal

                      As far as I understand, blocking VPN is also problematic. There may be problems with stable operation of the Internet. Therefore, in Russia, for example, you can still somehow use the Internet.

                        My mobile Internet practically doesn't work. And this is happening precisely because of artificial suppression. Although I pay money for mobile traffic. And I can't present anything to anyone. The mobile operator shrugs.

                          At this point, I’m seriously considering it.

                              Are you saying the hard water is leaving spots that don’t get clean or you just want to keep them from forming as the glass dries?

                                Scraping with a squeegee after every shower is annoying, but better than constantly cleaning with glass cleaner.

                                  @endo I try to dry mine with a towel after I shower and keep telling myself it’s easier in the long run.

                                      I used a scrubbing sponge with bar keeper’s friend to remove most of the spots. I have a few stubborn areas where the build up was a bit worse than the rest that I’m still struggling to remove. Going to keep working at it…

                                      Yes, squeegee is the way and neglect leads to spending afternoons swearing…

                                            @Tago-Mago We put in a water softener because of water spots. When we first built the house, we went a few years before installing one and got build up on the shower glass. We have scrubbed the glass numerous times with different methods trying to get rid of the last of the spots to no avail. While we have gotten the glass almost back to new, we still haven’t been able to remove all of them.

                                            At this point, I think that the glass is permanently etched. I’m going to try a few more times and may call in a professional to see what they can do.
