Diabetes?

What about seeing them driven before you and hearing the lamentations of their women?

3.8 megawatts.

When you throw something on earth and calculate it as a parabola, that's based on the approximation that the force of gravity is constant across the trajectory. It's actually a tiny bit weaker 20 feet up than at ground level, but the difference is so small that you can ignore it. The trajectory in a constant gravational field is parabolic.

When something is high enough that you're doing orbital calculations, you have to take the inverse square law into account. The elliptical orbit is a consequence of the gravitational force being inversely proportional to the square of the distance. It doesn't apply if the force is constant.

You can also say, look at a small segment of the pointy part of a very skinny ellipse, and it will look approximately like a parabola.

It seems to be "Modern Medical Mafia". There's a preview on youtube but idk if the whole thing is there.

I think the stuff you're describing is outside the range where we internet randos can give any concrete help. You're doing the right thing in seeing professionals who have actual training in dealing with this stuff. I can only offer sympathy and best wishes.

I find if I get agitated about something, I can often calm myself down with deep breathing. But I'm sure my experiences are less intense than yours to begin with, so I have no idea whether the same methods would work for you.

Tape is unfortunately uneconomical for regular people due to the drives costing so much, unless you get a used, older generation one.

How many GB's do you mean? Maybe try some optical discs, BD-R at 25GB maybe.

Otherwise just rent some online storage. Hetzner Storage Box is cheap and Storage Share is only slightly less cheap, and has lots of sharing features (it's really NextCloud).

The one time I tried streaming I just piped ffmpeg output through icecast and that worked, but it took some reading of the ffmpeg wiki to find the right options. You might even be able to point icecast to the folder directly without ffmpeg. I needed ffmpeg because it was transcoding from a webcam. On the playback side you'd again use ffmpeg to stream the icecast channel to your computer's hdmi output, and wire that to your TV. I'm still going with 10 line shell script, but maybe I'd use python to avoid too much shell cleverness.

Added: maybe you don't even need icecast. Its purpose is to fan out a single input to multiple clients. You can even cascade them across a bunch of cheap VPS into a do-it-yourself youtube with 1000s of simultaneous viewers.

The first pipe to shuf chooses a random album and the second randomizes the order of the songs on that album. I thought that is what OP had asked for.

I thought the donors were going to pick one and push out the other, but web search indicates that hasn't been successful yet. We'll see.

I hate amazon but haven't been following stuff about newegg and have been buying from them now and then. No probs so far but yeah, B&H is also good. Also centralcomputer.com if you are in the SF bay area. Actual stores.

I wouldn't buy a Synology but either way I'd want a 5 or 6 bay for raid-6 with two parity drives. Going from 4 bay (raid 6 or 10) to 5 bay (raid 6) is 50% more user data for 25% more drives. I wouldn't do raid 5 with drives of this size.

Is the Republican even relevant in NYC this election? I saw this as Lieberman for Connecticut redux.

try mplayer?

I expect one or the other will get pressured/bribed into dropping out.

Anyone suggest a decent FOSS CAD program good for designing 3d prints? IDK if there is one.

Ok 6 lines (untested):

        while true; do
      album=$(ls albums | shuf -n 1)
      for song in $(ls albums/$album/*.mp3 | shuf); do
         mplayer $song
      done
    done

  

Well, largest this week. And

Yeah, $800 isn’t a small chunk of change, but for a hard drive of this capacity, it’s monumentally cheap.

Nah, a 24TB is $300 and some 20TB's are even lower $ per TB.

That is like a 10 5 line bash script? Well a little more but not much.
