Where to watch the football game on Monday?
From Toronto and it seems like it was blast having Portugal in our town for the win yesterday!
I’ll actually be in Lisbon on Monday when Portugal and Spain will be playing and just went to find out where a great place would be get some food and watch the game?
Are there specific areas or restaurant recommendations where there would be lots of screens?

All my hard work and my router/Internet provider failed me…
For the last few months I’ve pretty much setup everything I needed for my home lab to self host all things that are important to me.
Media through my plex servers, photos through immich, documents through pgx. Reverse proxies for everything I need to access.
The first day I go on vacation, I try and look for a pdf and I can’t seem to access to anything. I have uptime Kuma running to make sure I get notifications when things go down. So no notifications and everything should be working.
However after some basic troubleshooting, it looks like my home internet went down shortly after I left, and based on my conversation with my ISP, it looks like it might be my router that failed. Might just be that it needs a reboot, however since I’m not home I can’t problem solve for it. I noticed that something might be up when my internet doorbell said it went offline.
Obviously it’s not the end of the world, but really frustrating when I haven’t had an internet/ISP issues in years, that it happens the day after I leave.
Murphy law I guess.
Curious though, what would be a solution for this in the future? Having a second internet service available ready to go? Or just one of the downsides of self hosting from the home.

So as I'm sure many have seen, the province of Ontario in Canada has introduced a bill that requires a cap on ticket resale prices. It cannot exceed the fair value price of the ticket + fees. This was introduced many years ago, but then was scrapped by the current government, who then decided to just reintroduce this (many reasons why this happened).
Right now, Ticketmaster has removed all resale tickets on their website in Ontario. This has major implications due to World Cup games in Toronto next month + Raptors playoffs and Jays tickets right now. They will be allowing resale again next week on their platform once I'm sure they can put proper measures in place.
Seatgeek actually send out an email to it's customers stating why capping ticket resales is a bad thing, so there's a lot of interest in this topic right now.
What will be interesting to follow is what impact this has to the ticket market in Ontario for events going forward.
- What impact will this have on face value tickets since Ticketing agents + teams/musicians won't be getting additional revenue from ticket resales.
- What impact will this have on dynamic pricing tickets.
- What impact will this have on VIP and VIP Platinum tickets (sell more expensive tickets to get more fees)
- What impact will this have on ticket availability of tickets to the general public.
- What ripple impact will this have in other regions in Canada and the US adopting this as well.
- What the impact will be on Season tickets. I know people who've already declined renewing season tickets since they won't be able to easily resell games to cover some of their costs.
