Hypothetical: If an old lady, like my mom, missed the Olympic figure skating yesterday and wanted to watch it today. How would she go about getting a recording of the full program to watch tonight. If she were to get it from a torrent tracker or something like that for local download, what would be the exact steps should would be taking so I could warn her not to go down that route to avoid violating any copyright laws.

Thanks lazy mastodon.

@poleguy Are you in Canada? just asking because I checked your profile and I see both Zamboni and ice hockey in there, and if you're in Canada this is really easy via CBC Gem

@Canageek Ha, good guess!... but you stopped reading the profile a few tags too soon: The last two words in my profile are #OakPark #IL. Which exposes me as a USAian.

@poleguy Ah, I missed the IL because it wasn't hashtagged so it was in a different colour on my client, and I have no idea where oakpark is, other than apparently Illinois (I should ask my husband, he's from Illinois)

@Canageek I just moved that bit up in my profile. You're the second person who has checked my profile and failed to determine where I was. It's often important to know where someone is to interpret their messages. Lot's of UK and German folks on here write from very different points-of-view.

@poleguy Good call, I'm glad that you can tell where I'm from. just looking at my username XD
