I see season 1-9 packs on both IPT and TL.

Observation is all we have. There's no indication that anything outside the solar system is different from the things inside of it. Some stars have a light spectrum very similar to our sun, which implies they are stars in similar places in their life. Others have a light spectrum that is very different.

We can use different parallax angles to determine that some stars are much further away than others. Parallax works the same at 10 miles as it does at 10 light years.

Is there some particular observation you don't understand?

To be fair that's a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.

I believe this is suggesting an AI poisoning edit, not removing the image entirely. It should be mostly imperceptible. Plus, you could update with newer methods as they come out.

How many magic users do you expect there to be in a given area? 1 per nation means you could make them pretty strong and influential but their abilities are limited by their physical presence, so most people are relying on traditional methods to do things and the fact that the wizard can make water or food is pretty meaningless. You still have to farm.

You can also limit magic by making it cost something. Some fantasy makes it physically exhausting, costing rest and food. That can be fun because dramatic, high emotion situations inherently allow for more dramatic uses of magic. It can also cost physical components, stronger magics utilize more or rarer components. That limits how a society might use magic to replace mundane tasks. Medieval peasant labor is going to be cheaper than whatever costly magic can offer.

In my wood stove, at least, it would drip though into the ash catch, which is a much thinner metal than the cast iron stove body and not really meant to have something actively burning in it. Kerosene also likely burns hotter than wood.

So you'd have a too hot fire burning in all the wrong places in the stove, it might be ok and it might burn a hole through something and start a fire.

I run Lemmy, Plex, and a bunch of other services from a desktop in my basement. It works great. The Lemmy docker setup is a little finicky but works well once you get it.

Digital assistants are good for timers, turning on smart lights, and sometimes playing music. None of those things require a large language model to spit random text back at me.

Check some recent comments, they used the correct term to describe themselves.

Aren't traditional satellite providers download only via satellite and use phone line for upload?

Beer, fries, and waffles. Brussels is awesome.

Same process in the United States

There are quite a few creators who are primarily funded off patreon and release content to YouTube. I imagine a group like MCDM (Matt Colville) who has patreon, merch, crowdfunding, and products doesn't really care about ad revenue.

I disagree. Each distro is a user of a thousand different open source systems. When a distro developer integrates gnome, systemd, bluez, or whatever other system they're finding, reporting, and possibly fixing bugs that end users might miss. Other than arch users, who else is compiling these things from scratch and really digging into the documentation?

All I meant by this is that there is a common fantasy that the dragonborn race option fulfills that is not thematically fulfilled by dwarves and orcs. If you think a different or custom race would fulfill that fantasy better then that's great too.

On top of the many other reasons here, there's also a pretty distinct difference between countries without a US extradition treaty and countries that won't extradite to the US. Many countries without formal treaties will still happily hand over a US citizen trying to hide in their country. It might be a different story if he had dual citizenship somewhere but anywhere he tried to flee he'd be immigrating illegally.

It's only 100% efficient if you're also letting all the exhaust into the house too...

It covers the very common case of new players who want to be dragons. You point them at dragonborn and tell them to go to town.
