i haven’t played skyrim since the last DLC was released, whatever that was. maybe my memory is sufficiently wiped at this point

I watched that movie knowing absolutely nothing about it going in other than the two leads, and it blew my mind. from that point on i swore off watching trailers and try to know as little as possible about every movie i watch.

the dude asks about SSD cash for torrents and your multimillion-dollar answer is “raid”. lol

as people have already pointed out multiple times, what OP wants is something like mergerfs or unraid which can handle files on SSD cash and then move to spinning disks later.

wtf does raid have to do with anything here? yeah, sure, I’m the slow one.

or you could, you know, think about it for a second from their point of view. and they have already clarified this in other comments.

what is the point of faster download if you just have to do another entire copy after that?

but if the disk is actually bottlenecking at 40MB/s it will still take time to copy from the SSD. That plus the initial download to SSD will just end up being more time than downloading to the spinning disk at 40MB/s in the first place.

what OP wants is to download the file to a SSD, be able to use it on the SSD for a time, and then have the file moved to spinning disk later when they don’t need to wait for it.

this is just adding an extra step to the process before the file can be available to use. you’re just saving the copying to the HDD until the very end of the torrent.

can you copy files to it from another local disk?

agreed, I think there is something else going on here. test the write speed with another application, I doubt the drive actually maxes out at 40MB/s unless it’s severely fragmented or failing.

incidentally what OP wants is how most people set up Unraid servers. SSD cache takes incoming files for write speed, then at a later time the OS moves the files to the spinning disk array.

The French team overall is going to be very good in 2028.

first 3 quarters were rough but the 4th with Steph, Lebron, KD, and Embiid taking it home was epic.

I wonder if the first step is to have the NBA Cup final four there. Maybe after Las Vegas has a team, could do a different euro city every year.

so not really “expansion” in the usual sense, but a separate league or isolated tournament with North American teams.

I understand that the games Amazon just bought are separate than NBA LEAGUE PASS. You can watch LEAGUE PASS on Amazon and those League Pass games will cost extra.

okay. what does that have to do with comparing Amazon to TNT?

And I’m not talking about the games that are broadcast on TNT with Ernie and Chuck. I’m talking about the games on League Pass, someone needs to build a studio, film the games, make the halftime show etc. that someone is TNT. The NBA doesn’t make all that themselves because they didn’t have studio space, cameras or the know-how to do it themselves so they contacted TNT to make that for them.

Maybe you are confusing League Pass with NBA TV which is operated through TNT. Again these are two separate things. League pass has NOTHING to do with TNT. League Pass is a collection of LOCAL media streams (RSNs). League Pass does not even show halftime, pregame or anything like that, it is just the in-game feed from local markets.

you’re confusing league pass with the regular amazon streaming games on Thursday night or whatever, they are two separate things. Part of the Amazon package is amazon-exclusive NBA games on Prime Video with no league pass subscription required. It’s no different than current TNT viewers, they don’t get league pass included with TNT either.

And the NBA has to pay TNT for league pass content because TNT produces those shows for the NBA.

unless you’re talking about some non-US arrangement I’m not aware of, TNT has nothing to do with league pass. League pass is a collection of local RSN streams. In fact all nationally broadcast games, including TNT, are blacked out on league pass in the US. Even if true outside the US I’m not sure why it matters, they will just have a different production team going forward.

They will need to pay extra money, so it’s not that different.

not sure what you mean here. anyone who has amazon prime already does not need to pay any more money to watch amazon NBA games. As for league pass, Amazon has reliable worldwide infrastructure already, so NBA can wash their hands of worrying about how to distribute it outside of the US.

over 80% of Americans born in the 80s already have amazon prime. Also the NBA liked amazon to help league pass internationally.
