I also don't think it's copyright related. PLEX server are small communities, family & friends and not some open tracker.

And I don't think Hetzner started illegally snooping around in their customers stored data and complaining to the PLEX developer about it. PLEX themselves? They could close all servers if they started snooping around what the users have. And no other party can see what media is on there.

I think there is some other reason but no clue what.

Hetzner running some diagnostics and seeing high traffic and storage? Then they would probably just inform their customers themselves and not via PLEX.

I hope we get more information in the next few days.

Hm... they only mention a general violation of the TOS.

Why would it matter for the company behind PLEX what the location of the server is? I searched the TOS for 'home', 'private' and 'remote' to find some kind of restriction that remote hosting wasn't allowed but those keywords didn't show anything.

I'm not affected by this, but I thought in the past as well about setting up a server in a data centre instead of my home.

I think there is a misunderstanding. "Bunker buster" is describing a function of a weapon, independent from the weapon type. There are various different weapon types that have this ability.

"A bunker buster is a type of munition that is designed to penetrate hardened targets or targets buried deep underground, such as military bunkers." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunker_buster

Thanks, I added the link too. They often have a tiny bit cleaner panels and better translation.

Here is btw the layout from Wikipedia, as the circuit allows for multiple corner variations:

Data centres, business, hospitals etc. run batteries to bridge the gap until the diesel starts running. It can take a minute or a few until the diesel generator takes over, but it can run for hours and days with refuelling.

Getting batteries for 8h is expensive and risky - what if the power cut suddenly lasts 9h? With batteries you have a fixed storage, with petrol or diesel you can just refuel.

Having that unreliable electricity, my home server would be the least of my problems. I would already have a generator to keep the fridge running so the food doesn't go bad every other day.

That was crazy during the race as well, when commentators argued if he is going to push for podium and thereby influence the championship negatively for Bagnaia by possibly taking up important points.

Also during the race, there are sometimes discussions how hard the active riders train, how many times per week, hours per day, what sessions they do, what training methods, how hard it is to be fit in motorcycle racing. And then the 42 year old Pedrosa, retired years ago, jumps on a bike and does... that. #4 in the race with quite a gap behind him.

This is quite interesting, as commonly weapon system sales can be based on data sheets, video presentations, theoretical scenarios, shooting range tests or 3rd party experience and reports.

In this case, Ukraine was able to test various IFV models from multiple countries in an actual war. And then after testing, Ukraine chose the CV-90. That's a good selling point for BAE systems.

This is kinda known since the war started and Lukashenko presented a map of the 'special military operation' with attack paths into all of Ukraine, as well of Moldova. It was never just a few regions of Ukraine as Russia keeps repeating, it was the whole country and more from the beginning.

Any search engine will do for: Lukashenko map attack

The ATACMS should have the same problem with bridges as M270/HIMARS and SCALP/Storm Shadow. They hit the road surface, punch a hole and the explosions happens below in the open.

It might be the best if Ukraine continues their efforts with their own developments e.g. via water, as they can easily damage the pillars and foundation of the bridge. Or even lift and destroy a whole bridge segment between two pillars, as we have seen in the past.

The ATACMS will certainly be of big use for storages and hubs far behind the front lines. But as the article writes: "It could be months before Ukraine receives the missiles, according to the official."

Besides ATACMS delivery, the USA will also have to maintain their HIMARS launcher, as they were altered before delivery to be unable to launch ATACMS (source: https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-altered-himars-rocket-launchers-to-keep-ukraine-from-firing-missiles-into-russia-11670214338). But maybe a simple software update can be installed? There were no details mentioned how the launchers were modified.

I think most of the submissions are just a title with a statement and a picture linked. Not ideal but better then nothing atm. Otherwise there might be nothing at all.

Overall some racing news, qualifying results, race result tables etc. would be nice, even just a RSS bot picking a few of those things.

I think there is even the little white parachute of the 2nd charge visible on screen indicating a SMArt projectile.
