The ISS has a lot of big solar panels. The other big panels they have are thermal radiators.

They have to have quite large thermal radiators because it's very inefficient. The ISS has people and a very small amount of computing power.

Data centers generate several orders of magnitude more heat. You would need several orders of magnitude more thermal radiators than you would solar panels. The bigger you make the data center, which is important for density since you're introducing a lot of lag due to the speed of light, the less room you have to put thermal radiators or solar panels.

Then you need to work out how to get spare servers, and/or server parts up and down from the Data Center. All of these things are consumables, and all of them have significantly more wear and tear outside of the Earth's atmosphere.

It is possible. It is not efficient or sensible. It sounds cool, it doesn't require buying land, and there aren't currently international agreements about doing dumb stuff in space in the same way there are for doing dumb stuff in the ocean.

It's a perennial thing with Jellyfin that it doesn't have the app / remote access support Plex provides. By itself it's a fully functional network media server, but by design it doesn't have the ability to reverse tunnel and it doesn't have the corporate infrastructure that gets it's app onto devices.

Yes you can set up wireguard / VPN access. Yes there are workarounds that can get Jellyfin streaming to most devices.

None of that matters when trying to talk someone on the phone through connecting to your server through the internet.

Plex is an account, it looks like a streaming service, it requires zero knowledge. I'm fairly certain some of my relatives have no idea it's streaming from a server in my basement. Jellyfin they have to trust you enough to setup separate other apps / configuration and have the patience / attention span / ability to follow directions to do so.

Which is why it's bad writing.

"Unblockable killing spell" is the kind of thing that pops up on a middle school playground because every kid wants to have the trump card in make-believe and the last kid just cast Meteor.

Eragon is a contemporary-ish book and has killing magic that can kill normies by the dozens/hundreds, but other magic users have to do more than play rock-paper-nuclear-option.

Thankfully this one is built of many redundant layers instead of just one layer of metal.

Are they ICE agents?

There's a reason we, in the past, set up things like badges and uniforms to identify agents of the civil authority. It's so we know there is at least the pretense that the rights of the person being arrested will be respected and that they will go to a location where they can be checked on and communicate with friends/family and receive legal assistance for the charges brought against them.

Masked men with guns shouting "I'm definitely police" and bagging a woman is not that.

Their bosses pretending this is good enough is, at the very very very least, endangering federal agents unnecessarily. To say nothing of the rights of the people they're disappearing without the pretense of arresting them.

According to the college it was, according to the FBI they were going to prosecute him federally anyway.

Will anyone be better than Tom?

Became everyone's friend, became a millionaire, retired, (so far?) avoided falling off the right wing conspiracy cliff. Kind of just a quiet dude.

* Assuming there is no bug, zero-day, or other vulnerability on the current version of your fully updated device.

Having a power-only cable removes that as a possibility.

Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can't sue them for anything. Ever.

Even if years later you die in one of Disney's hotels because one of Disney's restaurants didn't care about your allergy.

So there's that to worry about now.

Perfect should not be the enemy of Good. Reforming the entire system is not something that just happens. It takes several steps in the right direction and you have to start somewhere.

Mostly I think its fine for all that.

But there's a special circle of hell for projects that rely on it for "documentation".

I get the temptation, I really do. But once you're taking money or have more than a couple people involved and semi-organized you really need at least a small wiki/git-hub landing page with the basics.

I know documentation is a separate skillset and a lot of work in its own right but projects can also stagnate and die because there isn't any.

It should be. But I would be extremely surprised if everything in the terms of service isn't worded something like "you're buying a license to view this content that can be revoked whenever".
