I use alldebrid because my use case is slightly weird (I want to keep files in my debrid and stream them from it so I can have a big Jellyfin library without having much storage) and their retention is best.

Torbox is a newer to the market (less will be cached) with a couple of bonus features. My second hand impression of it is that it’s still in Beta (usable, but not free of bugs or stable). They seed the torrents you download.

Debridlink is less popular (less will be cached), but seems well liked. They also seed the torrents you download

There’s a guy on YouTube who, among other things, makes language intelligibility videos. Here’s the one he did on how well German speakers can understand Old English

What do you mean by “backed” here? I think I’m misunderstanding but I thought (and a short google seems to confirm) that currency A being backed by currency B means the value of A is fixed at a certain amount of currency B, and there is some organisation “backing” this with reserves.

Not trying to shill/defend crypto, just confused on terminology :)

You can read them as separate statements with the middle repeated and a logical AND between them:

If (8.5p1 <= your OpenSSH version) AND (your OpenSSH version < 9.8p1) Then you are vulnerable

It’s the same as saying if your OpenSSH version is between these two versions (including 8.5p1, but not 9.8p1), then you are vulnerable

Oracle suck, and the omission of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure may be intentional here, but they offer 2 indefinitely free servers which only required a linked card iirc. Could be worth adding to the list?

If you sign up for a PAYG account (which requires a $100 charge to your card, which is then refunded), you can actually get he ARM servers they advertise as always free. They’re a bit beefier (4 Ampere cores, 24gb ram).

And they give 200gb of storage you divvy up between your instances.

But Oracle deeply suck as a company, so maybe not mentioning them is the right choise

Others have given the rap beef context, but nobody has mentioned why a blood would have been on stage or why that was significant. At the end of the concert, Kendrick got a bunch of people from a bunch of LA gangs on stage and made a big show of unity.

TMZ article - mainly as a source, the article itself isn’t fantastic

Scanners have gotten better recently, meaning they can tell the difference between water and explosives, but these restrictions weren’t pulled out of thin air like many others.

There was a thwarted terrorist plot to use drink bottles to hold explosives.

Can confirm I’ve seen these on British supermarket shelves

It’s not just the media who uses this term. According to this study which I’ve had a very brief skim of, the term “hallucination” was used in literature as early as 2000, and in Table 1, you can see hundreds of studies from various databases which they then go on to analyse the use of “hallucination” in.

It’s worth saying that this study is focused on showing how vague the term is, and how many different and conflicting definitions of “hallucination” there are in the literature, so I for sure agree it’s a confusing term. Just it is used by researchers as well as laypeople.
