Obviously the solution is to have thousands of nodes per file transfer to increase the bandwidth.

This is a perfect plan which has absolutely no downsides.

The existence of Wide Area Network implies Narrow Area Network.

Meshtastic is a project that enables you to use inexpensive LoRa radios as a long range off-grid communication platform in areas without existing or reliable communications infrastructure. This project is 100% community driven and open source!

Don't waste your time on jealousy;
Sometimes you're ahead,
Sometimes you're behind.
The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself.

[...]

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life.
The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives,
some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.

Yeah this seems like a smoking gun of intent to reproduce the IP. Hard to claim it was done in ignorance if Sony has documentation on this licensing pitch.

SIE further alleged that Tencent came to the company with a pitch to license the Horizon IP, to which SIE declined.

This seems very relevant to the lawsuit.

What did they do, decide to develop a Horizon game in-house, then ask for permission retroactively, and then release it anyway when Sony didn't agree?

I was wondering how radioactive the resulting material would be. Twenty years is totally viable for a power plant. Reactors in the US have been storing nuclear waste on site for a lot longer than that.

One theory is that the "sea peoples" were not any specific group but rather refugees from various city-states that were smaller and had fewer resources and so collapsed earlier. These people likely traveled to other places that had not yet collapsed, where they were scapegoated by the local leaders as the source of socioeconomic problems, just as refugees and migrants are today - which explains historical records that pin blame on the "sea peoples".

The Bronze Age collapse was probably caused by systemic issues, not by the actions of any particular group, but it was easier to blame refugees than actually study and deal with the real problems.

The Fall if Civilizations podcast has a great episode on this:
