  • It is cat and mouse, but it has an issue maybe every year or so, and they generally resolve it same day or next day with an app update. The hardest part is generating your own google api keys, but there are straightforward guides and you just need to do it once.

    The upside? No ads at all, sponsorblock integration, and an easy 10ft interface that works great with a remote. No shitty web site to navigate with a mouse. Just a list of your videos each day. Click and play.

    I cant speak to your overheating issues. I have kodi running on 4gb raspi 5s with the default case/fan. No problems. An external usb fan might help you out. I’ve used one of these with a raspi in the past. Its roughly the same size as the raspi, but dead silent. Moves insane air.






  • Belly fat is unfortunately just calorie reduction. You can’t target fat on specific parts of the body, just overall.

    Improving core strength with no impact on the spine is tough, as most core exercises will likely engage the back and spine. I would try to implement standard, good form push ups if you can. Planking is also an option, but again form is king. Do them properly, for less time instead of “cheating” with loose form if you want to make improvements.


  • Another thing to add on to why weight isn’t a great measurement - You will put on muscle as you lose fat, especially if you shift your diet while you workout. It’s fully possible that you lose 5 lbs of fat in a month while putting on 5 lbs of muscle. Both are great strides forward, but the scale will show no change.

    If you are going to use a scale, get one that will do body fat analysis as well. They aren’t 100% accurate, but its another measurement that gives a closer look at your actual fitness.
