To anyone who finds EVE fascinating, but doesn’t actually want to play it themselves, I can highly recommend the “Empires of EVE” books by Andrew Groen. The two volumes span the time from beta to 2014 and talk about the wars and empires of Null Sec. The author interviewed loads of players. It’s a fascinating read.
Podcasts partner up with ad providers. They inject ads into the episodes depending on several factors, including your location. The podcast has some say and can for example exclude some topics like politics. That catches most, but an ad can also be misrepresented and slip through.
I use Antennapod as well and they have nothing to do with it. They just download episodes from RSS feeds provided from other services.
You could use a VPN server in a smaller country. If the ad market is very small, there simply might be no ads to serve you.
I can also recommend using a swiss VPN server. The funny swiss dialect makes it hilarious.
Thank you. You just gave me a flashback to Total War: Rome campaign I played as a kid. I didn’t play long, because it got boring fast. I had exclusive horse archer armies that wiped out whole armies without losses.
I know with Hartensteins departure and Robinsons injury woes the 5 spot was an issue, but I’m not sure I like Towns for them. I’m not sure he can bring the toughness and mentality the team showed.
Randle felt like a weird foreign object after this season, bit I will miss Donte. The Villanova 4 didn’t last long.
As for migration, you might be able to create a degraded pool initially, copy over the data, and add the parity disk last.
I actually asked in the TrueNAS forum about this idea. According to some knowledgeable users this might work. For anyone interested, details here. The next major release (planned for end of October), should make this easier.
“Pay no attention to the next console behind the curtain! Buy our stuff!”
I love that I just download the app from the dedicated place, no pointless web surfing for the latest versions.
IMO this is a huge thing, Linux actually does a lot better than Windows. I know the Windows Store exists, but it is lacking in lots of ways.
Didn’t he petition the French President for citizenship with the promise to compete for them?
Desperate people are being denied such privilege, despite living in the country. Kind of a dick move.
Tbf the current Republican Party doesn’t have “deep rooted conservative ideals” either.

I’m from Europe and was a big NBA fan as a kid (who wasn’t in the Jordan era, am I right?). I recently got back into it.
One aspect that really surprised me about the NBA was the fact that owners were the first who received trophies (conference final and final winners). Most sports I grew up with would award the coach or team captain first. I understand the structure of the NBA can’t work without rich owners, but why do we need to reward them over the people who actually contributed on and around the court?
The thought of watching a horrible person like Bezos push a trophy into the air is upsetting to me.
I liked him on the Knicks. Great effort and skill. I hope he can show the same in OKC and get lits if playing time.
I’m not that knowledgeable when it comes to salary cap and contracts and was wondering this exact thing. At what point is having a potential winning team more important than a few million for someone who is possibly a billionaire by now. Apparently Lebron couldn’t just play for a couple of million and get a superstar teammate instead. Good to know.
The Villanova 4 are complete!
Overall a good list.
Minor nitpicks like healthy Embiid should be in 1A for me and the gap between Tatum and Brown being too big. As a Knicks fan I like Brunson so high. I hope he can confirm that evaluation next season.
Then there is KD. His skill is unquestionable, but if we speak of value, he isn’t 1B for me. IMO he has become a poison pill since Brooklyn.
Teams change up their whole structure and trade away the kitchen sink to get him. What do they get? A strong team on paper that doesn’t produce results.
When the going gets tough he requests a trade. The team is left with a roster built around him and few to no draft picks.
Why does nobody ask the important question?
Will the players be required to be on his podcast when asked?
Imagine being such a bad prospect as a franchise, you have to offer a coach a six year contract and $80mio.
And then imagine such a bad season, you rather let him go and eat the rest of his contract, than have him continue the work.
Some real geniuses in Detroit.
This position could only happen with an illegal move. Another monarch would never permit the pawns to kill royalty and their police force would never help.
Did you ever wonder why the game is over just before a king dies?!?
With the obvious off season move out of the way, we can look forward to their next moves.
Congress should have a theme for this. “Warcrime Wednesdays”?
In EVE everything within 1000km is on the same “grid”. within a solar system you can only warp to known locations. That includes locations that were manually saved or celestial objects like moons and planets.
That means when someone warps to a moon, they can see anyone who warped to that moon, since they are on the same grid.
A safe spot is a location that isn’t on the same grid as a known location. You can still be scanned down by someone, but there are ways to know about it.
Edit: Its been a while and I’m no expert, so anyone feel free to correct me.
