I subscribed to watch the World Cup and have everything recorded to my DVR.

Yet just now, for example, when I clicked to continue watching France vs. Senegal, it brought me to a live version of the Iraq vs Norway game. It spoiled the outcome of the France game, and I saw the score of the Norway game.

This has happened maybe five or six times now. I literally cannot click to watch a game, or it will take me to a live broadcast of a different game. Earlier today I tried to watch France vs Senegal, and after clicking 'play from beginning' it played from the 2nd half and again, spoiled the game. A couple days ago I tried to watch Germany's first match, and it started playing a different broadcast on the same channel, and the announcer's first words were "GERMANY DRAWS..."

guys what am I doing wrong? I am very into the world cup but I am very NOT into spoilers. Why am I not able to watch these programs from the beginning?

OK, I've been subscribed on and off to YouTube TV for years, but I recently re-subscribed so I could watch the World Cup.

My recordings are horrible though? The recordings are incorrect. So if I click to watch a game like Brazil vs Morocco, which is saved in my Home page, it doesn't show the Brazil vs Morocco game. Rather, it's mislabeled. The recording is of a different game, and I can never watch the Brazil vs Morocco game. In fact, the very first sentence was "Morocco draws Brazil", spoiling the game I was trying to watch!

This isn't an isolated incident. It's happening around 50% of matches, where some games I am recording are simply mislabeled, or not recorded. Is there a solution to this? I haven't seen people talking about this but I cannot be the only one missing huge games because my YouTube TV is messed up?

I'm a relatively new hostel owner and I'm just looking for feedback on how other hostels are finding staff? Or if you work for a hostel, how did you end up there?

We are a small hostel in an artsy outdoorsy city in Oregon, and our summer guests are mostly hikers doing the Pacific Crest Trail.

The most important thing for us is the right fit, and I'm hoping to find someone who radiates good vibes and aura onto our guests. And the guests are like a traveling circus of wild looking hikers, so I was thinking like the more alternative, the more free-thinking our staff, the better.

We do offer housing. It's not ideal but it's a shared bunkroom situation with our small staff. They would have access to a fully equipped kitchen and parking. We do have rules like quiet hours, it's not a party hostel, but I think it would work for the right person.

The way it works is they get the bed in exchange for X hours of work a week, and we pay a real wage after that.

The work itself is cleaning but could also include front desk tasks. Just for the summer.

It's an amazing town, the cultural center full of theater and art, a tourism area. The city has a walkable downtown, a university and a real dining scene.

I know there's a lot of workers looking for seasonal jobs working for the National Parks, and I wanted to find someone like that. Like outdoorsy, artistic, outgoing?

Am I too late to find someone for the summer? Do you think this kind of job profile would attract a college student? Like a 1-off role in a small hostel, which is unlike a national park which would hire dozens of seasonal workers.

Where should I go to find a worker with that kind of profile?

PS - I'm not offering a job here, I just hope to get feedback on what sites/platforms I should use to find someone. We are trying to identify the best route forward and I'm just here evaluating some options.

I'm a new hostel owner who is busy fixing various things, one of which is a TV that's been broken forever.

So I'm about to set up a streaming device in one of the common rooms, but I'm dreading the inevitable lost remote situation.

I'm just curious what solutions have you seen hostels (or other shared spaces) use to keep the remote accessible without it walking off? Velcro on the TV stand? Tethered to the table? Leave it in a little caddy on the coffee table? Something else?

Bonus points if it doesn't look completely awful!

Also I'm thinking a Roku would be best for people, or would you prefer AppleTV or Amazon Fire stick? I'm in the mountains of Oregon but we get a lot of internationals especially hikers so I want to support iOS and Android, and all the various streaming services. AppleTV seems expensive and tethered to iOS, and I'm not a fan of Amazon for various reasons.
