In EVE everything within 1000km is on the same "grid". within a solar system you can only warp to known locations. That includes locations that were manually saved or celestial objects like moons and planets.

That means when someone warps to a moon, they can see anyone who warped to that moon, since they are on the same grid.

A safe spot is a location that isn't on the same grid as a known location. You can still be scanned down by someone, but there are ways to know about it.

Edit: Its been a while and I'm no expert, so anyone feel free to correct me.

To anyone who finds EVE fascinating, but doesn't actually want to play it themselves, I can highly recommend the "Empires of EVE" books by Andrew Groen. The two volumes span the time from beta to 2014 and talk about the wars and empires of Null Sec. The author interviewed loads of players. It's a fascinating read.

Jetzt stell man sich Mal vor Wissing würde nicht alle paar Monate damit drohen das Deutschlandticket stark zu erhöhen oder ganz abzuschaffen. Dann würden bestimmt noch mehr Leute umsteigen, weil damit endlich relative Planungssicherheit herrscht.

Podcasts partner up with ad providers. They inject ads into the episodes depending on several factors, including your location. The podcast has some say and can for example exclude some topics like politics. That catches most, but an ad can also be misrepresented and slip through.

I use Antennapod as well and they have nothing to do with it. They just download episodes from RSS feeds provided from other services.

You could use a VPN server in a smaller country. If the ad market is very small, there simply might be no ads to serve you.

I can also recommend using a swiss VPN server. The funny swiss dialect makes it hilarious.

According to this discussion, you can apply your Wayland settings to SDDM from the system settings.

Edit: Although some users reporting issues with it, but worth a try.

The only time I had sync problems was when I was connected to a VPN. Do you use one by chance?

Thank you. You just gave me a flashback to Total War: Rome campaign I played as a kid. I didn't play long, because it got boring fast. I had exclusive horse archer armies that wiped out whole armies without losses.

Thanks for saying this.

With recent campaigns and rants against digital media, people often claim that "you own the game if you buy a physical copy". That always makes me sigh, because it's false.

Not saying there are some advantages for some use cases, but I dislike hyperbole and untruths.

IIRC TrueNAS next release will include RaidZ1 with 2 disks

As for migration, you might be able to create a degraded pool initially, copy over the data, and add the parity disk last.

I actually asked in the TrueNAS forum about this idea. According to some knowledgeable users this might work. For anyone interested, details here. The next major release (planned for end of October), should make this easier.

Maybe it's just me, but I think entities that deliberately spread and use malware should be punished and held accountable. Too bad these entities help write the laws.
