Do you generally struggle with reading comprehension?

However, sustaining broad-spectrum jamming over a large area is expensive and impractical.

If the mesh network is wide enough, redundant enough, mobile enough, then traffic can be routed around jammed areas.

Who said anything about how it looks?

Shanghai is a global financial center, ranking third in Asia and eighth globally on the Global Financial Centres Index.[139] Shanghai is also a large hub of the Chinese and global technology industry and home to a large startup ecosystem. As of 2021, the city was ranked as the 2nd Fintech powerhouse in the world after New York City.[140]

As of 2019, the Shanghai Stock Exchange had a market capitalization of US$4.02 trillion, making it the largest stock exchange in China and the fourth-largest stock exchange in the world.[141] In 2009, the trading volume of six key commodities—including rubber, copper, and zinc—on the Shanghai Futures Exchange all ranked first globally.[142] By the end of 2017, Shanghai had 1,491 financial institutions, of which 251 were foreign-invested.

Shanghai is about as communist as Wall Street. It should look nice, they certainly have the money for it.

Except that the children who are suffering didn't choose this.

Nobody with any sense would spend any effort on discussion in YouTube comments.

Um, do you have some contrary evidence to present? Or is your position just "US bad"?

by the end of January, the game's director, Steven Sharif, and "much of" the senior dev team quit "in protest," claiming that its management board had asked him to do things he "could not ethically support."

What the hell did they ask for?

Interestingly, without any context or introduction, a standard member, Karen L. Boreyko, addressed the community earlier today (February 3) across several Discord channels, writing: "Hello everyone — my name is Karen L. Boreyko, and I want to take a moment to speak directly to this community as we begin a new chapter for Ashes of Creation.
[...]
At this time, because her account isn't tagged as an official team member, it's impossible to determine who Boreyko is or how she is involved in the game's development, if at all. A Leanne Boreyko is attached to a multi-level marketing wellness company called Vemma, and, coincidentially enough, a different wellness company called 310 Nutrition and run by a man called Tim Sharif who has just dropped a load of Ashes of Creation merch onto Amazon.com. Make of that what you will.

WTF is going on in this company?

It looks like the pivots are on opposite sides of the disk platters, which means that if one fails you essentially lose access to the data on that side.

That's not really appreciably different from the same failure happening in a single-pivot drive, though it is more mechanical complexity packed into the same amount of space.

I'm not sure what the failure rates on HDD pivots are like. In my own experience the control board or motor is more likely to fail.
