No she wasn't. The name matches because the article and picture are both about the person who missed out on the scholarship because of the twerking video, but she still wasn't the person twerking in the video.

"[She] was seen dancing at a private homecoming afterparty on September 30 behind a friend who was twerking"

The person you're replying to is pointing out that they aren't showing the picture of someone who was twerking because her scholarship was revoked for being next to someone who was twerking.

The official newpipe isn't on the play store because it breaks their terms of service, which makes sense considering 2 of the 3 "newpipes" on there are just completely different apps using the name and logo of newpipe. The third is actually newpipe but with loads of ads added, not sure how long it'll last before Google nukes it.

But yeah for newpipe just get the offical ad free and open source version from TeamNewPipe on GitHub or on F-Droid in the main repo. Or if you want newpipe with no ads and also with sponsorblock, you want to get it from polymorphicshade on GitHub or through F-Droid with the Izzyondroid repo.

Huh, I've been running 6x wd red pro 6tb in raidz2 for 7 years and I've only had 2 fail. Recently migrated to synology btrfs with the same drives still going strong

They said we were at least a few years out from a performance upgrade, but a refresh could involve other things like nicer screen, battery, hall effect joysticks, etc. So they could still preserve the same performance target and still release a premium version in the meantime.

A dht crawler is inherently an intensive service to run, magnetico used sqlite and would take 10 minutes just to load the splash page that includes the total count of discovered torrents.

Also definitely dont look into setting up sonarr, radarr, prowlarr, and overseerr in combination with Plex or jellyseerr in combination with jellyfin. Otherwise you could find yourself with an extremely low touch automated downloading and organizing system that you can let your friends log into to request movies and shows without them needing to bug you at all for it to be downloaded in your preferred quality, size, codec, etc and automatically show up in Plex/jellyfin as soon as it finishes downloading, all renamed and sorted into folders as you please. That would be horrible.

That's why it's so brilliant. If you can develop an in-band system to coordinate arbitrary price increases between firms then you have plausible deniability. Who needs price fixing if you can just temporarily increase price, see who's price matching algorithms follows, and act accordingly using an algorithm that acts so fast that consumers are none the wiser when the "negotiation" to increase price fails.

The fact that the impetus for the price increase is nothing more than to test if other firms will raise their prices to match an increase and has nothing to do with supply or demand of the product makes it transparent that this strategy achieves the effect of price fixing without the smoking gun of explicit negotiation and plausible deniability that they are simply engaging in "price leadership".

I don't think you understand what's happening. Amazon's algorithm is not just increasing price to match competitors. They are temporarily increasing price beyond competitors to see if competitors will also increase their price. This is different because there is no original market force impetus for the price increase, they are just seeing if both they and a competitor can coordinate to make a permanent price increase.

Arbitrarily interesting a price to see if you're competitors will also increase is not adjusting to market competition. It's testing the waters for colluding on price. It's literally sending a signal that Amazon is willing to increase if others will match. Whether the agreement is made in secret or done in public using "plausibly deniable" price increases makes no difference.

What happens when another retailer runs the same algorith? One tests the waters with a price hike, the other sees it and matches. The first detects the corresponding increase and maintains the increased price. Rise repeat.

I'm other words, this could be price fixing because making a temporary increase and seeing if competitors will match the increase is sending a signal to competitors that Amazon is willing to increase price if others match. The fact that they revert to a lower price doesn't absolve them from price fixing, it just means the negotiation to collude failed.

The fact that the only factor in play is whether the competitors also increase price makes it blatantly obvious that the increase has nothing to do with supply and demand.

That basically sounds like automated price fixing

Does that update significantly sooner than the play store or is it mainly for people who don't like to use the play store? Mine is on 118.1 and my play store update history says 3 days ago.

I just keep a USB c dongle permanently attached to my wired headphones, I forget it's there. It adds like 1" to the overall cable length. I basically just converted all my wired headphones into USB c headphones.
