That's not exactly what he said. If you go back, you'll see that he said he doesn't mind at all when people do it, including his own viewers. It's just that by not watching advertisements, the viewer is purposefully not paying for the content in the platform's intended way, just like you can torrent content to avoid paying someone like Netflix.

You might argue with the validity of the specific wording, but I don't think it was about him getting more money, and I'm speaking as someone who does both of the things I mentioned above.

'scientists are concerned' and 'atmospheric holes' implies something a bit scarier than a short light phenomenon to me, bad headline

Out of curiosity, what sort of challenges did you have with setting up shows in jellyfin? I've been working with it and haven't encountered any issues yet

I guess that can be easier for some. Personally I kind of like looking for file sources myself, I'm somewhat particular about the quality I'm looking for. It's probably also easier to manually handle edge cases, for example recently I found a TV show that came with all the extras such as the soundtrack along with the show itself, and I wanted those to end up in separate places.

I have jellyfin set up just for myself and those solutions just didn't seem necessary to me. I simply pull and seed manually from my desktop and transfer the files to the server over the network. Easy enough 🤷

Not sure exactly what you're asking, but usually servers are built in a way that several units can be stacked on top of each other in a rack, which makes it important that air comes in from the front and exits from the back. The smaller coolers then allow you to cram more GPUs next to each other since the higher heat density won't matter due to the airflow speed inside the case.

After you've done it once it's much easier. You basically download whatever new APK the revanced manager suggests and follow the steps in the manager to select the patches you want.

You're either a malicious troll or completely uninformed. A landing sequence was never planned for this test nor the one before it. Even if they met all their stretch goals, both stages would have crashed into the ocean, just in a different location from what ended up happening. The goals haven't changed, you just assumed that they were something they were not.

The space shuttle was never meant to be 'reusable' but rather 'refurbishable.' The big difference is that Starship is designed from the ground up for rapid reusability, without manually checking each of the 24000 unique tiles of the STS orbiter.

With the stainless steel construction, SpaceX is aiming to use their new upper stage up to 3 times a day with only refueling and a basic check in between. It is a complete paradigm shift from traditional rockets.

Look at the Falcon rocket history. They started out at a very similar point, though at a smaller scale. And yet now they are comfortably human rated. They have landed the last 171 times in a row without fail, with another one coming this evening to add to that incredible number.

The guy at the helm is a terrible person, but this does not discredit the absolutely insane progress they have made.

You're comparing the world's first fully reusable rocket that also happens to be the world's most powerful operational rocket to old technology? The payload capacity of this vehicle is immense. There is not a single aspect of it that isn't brand new, from its proportions, engine power cycle, engine amount, construction materials, you can go on almost endlessly.

These incremental tests are what allow them to move at this incredible speed. Traditional rocket development doesn't take years, it takes decades. You have to consider that this isn't a government trying to outcompete another one, it's a private company. They are pushing the envelope with everything they're doing.

While the mission was similar in thrust profile to an orbital one, it was not an orbital mission. The vehicle broke down and landed about an hour after launch.
