Usually what I’ll do is I’ll recombine the folders into an iso file using mkisofs and then keep the ISO as it keeps all the menus and everything in tact. Later if you want, you can run that ISO through MakeMKV and just rip out an MKV of the main title through. But since I have enough disc space I just rip all my DVDs and BDs to straight ISOs to keep all the menus and extras in tact for later.
Look up Anycast when you get a chance.
The bigger trouble is creating a CDN has a stupidly high barrier to entry. You literally need your own data centers across the world, your own server infrastructure, the man power to manage it, etc.
You could try to host it on a cloud provider but you’d go bankrupt even quicker. Unless someone were to try to build a co-op run CDN, it’s just not gonna happen without a profit motive and a large amount of capital.
Maximum Landing Weight and Maximum Takeoff Weight. Because of the stress put on the airframe when landing you don’t want a heavy plane. It’s easier to control when taking off because it’s smoother. So having the same weight on landing means the airframe will need to be beefed up, or you fly with less overall since more goes to the plane.

I’ve always been curious how electric planes will address MLW as they scale up. Even if you get similar energy densities and can cover MTOW, you generally count on reducing weight as you use up fuel and are lighter when you land. But with a battery your weight is going to be roughly the same. Will that mean you have to take into account the increased weight and will have less room for cargo/passengers?
I see you haven’t heard of the Video CD and it’s glorious 240p resolution you had to watch videos in…
I have my BD/DVD/CD collection backed up to S3 Glacier. It’s incredibly cheap, offsite, and they worry about the infrastructure. The amount of Hard drive and infrastructure space you’ll need to back up nearly that amount will cost you the about the same give or take. Yes it’ll cost a bit in the event of a catastrophic restore, but if I have something happen at the house, at least I have an offsite backup.
The new Outlook looks like a standalone app version of OWA. They’re probably doing that to unify code bases but it’s seriously lacking some features that Outlook had.
And that’s just a few I remember. Though it’s been a good year since I’ve played with it last.
This popped up because Funimation had quite a few purchases that were digital only, and not just a code with your blu-ray. Sony has announced that they are shutting down Funimation on 4/2 and digital purchases will not transfer over to Crunchyroll leaving all those people who purchased digital content on Funimation in the lurch.
I still want to see an “anything goes” category. Let’s see what the most engineered human is capable of doing. I don’t care what their base or biology was.
