- https://www.synology.com/en-au/support/RAID_calculator or similar is good to easily do these calculations
- No, but more RAID configurations than not are limited by the smallest size drive. It's a factor to consider, assuming you can't afford to just buy a bunch of disks. I wound up maintaining two separate NAS devices, one of which gets my old, smaller disks.
- Generally yes, though you'd be surprised how little difference disk speed makes once you get enough of them in an array.
- I use Synology with various shucked WD externals. I have a bunch of other stuff in my homelab though, so I need the storage to not be it's own project, else I likely would have built something less expensive. I'm sure there will be better suggestions in this thread than mine.

Possible, but given the unwarranted confidence in the earlier comments and the "Couldn’t give a shit" in response to being shown to be inaccurate, I'm not inclined to give the user in question the benefit of the doubt.
No it didn't, given the wording used.
From the article linked in the OP:
“When they wrapped the baby up tightly, they propped the baby’s head on top of the blanket to make it appear like the head was attached when it wasn’t,” attorney Dr. Roderick Edmond said.
Definitely doesn't sound like an "internal decapitation" to me. What a strange thing to lie about.
For things I don't care enough to archive to my own collection, I use a Shield TV with SmartTube, an alternative client that blocks ads, incorporates SponsorBlock, and a few other nice tweaks. Definitely my favorite YT experience of all the ones I've tried.
I don't know how common they are anymore, as Plex has moved toward hosting their own metadata and I've never bothered using any myself, but there historically have been some number of YT metadata agents (e.g., this one) folks could add onto their Plex server and pull the metadata from YT directly. Expanding something like this to also query the Sponsorblock API seems like it wouldn't be terribly difficult.
The harder part would be getting the player to incorporate Sponsorblock to actually use that data to skip the segments. Plex, in particular, seems unlikely to ever try something like this, as their business model is moving more and more toward ad-supported streaming content rather than improving the self-hosted media server that got them popular.
That seems like it's more on shitty parenting than something affected by advertising, no?
You wouldn't want the Sponsorblock to be part of the download process, but rather the player. Being crowdsourced, it's not immediate and often gets improved/corrected over time, so a video's least likely to have good Sponsorblock timestamps right after being uploaded (when an automated program would likely be downloading it).
We need a Plex/Jellyfin/etc. metadata provider with the Sponsorblock info included. Could keep the data up to date, even after the videos are downloaded.
Without the Oxford Comma, it's not a list but an appositive phrase. In that context, it's correct usage.
So what's you're proposed solution? Your directive to "fix that" was a bit light on details.
This is a step in the right direction. The automated reviews will supplement, not replace, the reviewing triggered by manual reports you supported in your initial comment. I'd argue the pushback from police unions is a sign that it actually might lead to some change, given the reasoning the give in the article.
I think support for this depends a lot on where that line is drawn. Failing to keep your admittedly troubled children away from guns is obvious (and covered by existing laws, hence the guilty verdict here). At the other extreme, I don't think having a gun stolen during a legitimate robbery should be criminalized, since that's moving into victim-blaming territory.
I'm not sure where the line is drawn, but a parent in this sort situation has some responsibility both from the failure in parenting and the failure in securing the firearm. Makes for an easy agreement with the verdict in this specific situation, imo.
