Pure mathematicians often answer questions that really only other pure mathematicians care about, but occasionally their results or techniques have relevance in other fields, so universities will pay them to work on this stuff and publish papers. Usually part of the job is applying for grants to fund your research and teaching students.

Yep, I just double checked and I think it's all remote connections, not just relayed ones. You can probably get around this by setting up a wireguard tunnel or something to make Plex think you're connecting locally, but it's definitely going to be easier to just use Jellyfin if you haven't already set that up

IIRC it's a charge to use their relay servers, which you only need if you don't have a direct connection to your media server. Setting up a direct connection isn't always easy or possible especially for non-technical users, and does come at some small expense to Plex, so it's not that weird to be a paid feature. But if Jellyfin meets your needs that's a good thing, it's probably got a better shot at avoiding enshittification long term.

edit: I was not remembering correctly, even direct (remote) connections are paywalled. You'd need to use some kind of tunnel to make Plex think you're connecting locally.

It's not wrong. The idea that "WoW is getting easier because it is coming to consoles" is false. That's what the title says. It's just awkwardly written.

He had been for some time. They offered him half his S1 salary.

There are non-standard models of arithmetic. They follow the original first-order Peano axioms and any theorem about the naturals is true for them, but they have some wacky extra stuff in them like you mention.

Mames sense I guess!

Yeah, I've used pliers and seen rivets but not welds. Just dunno why he'd say weld if he didn't mean it.

If the rings are actually welded, it shouldn't be that bad right? I'd still put a fabric cover on it though
