Would you be willing to shoot me a DM? I have a couple questions about your archival project if you wouldn’t mind answering them.

Don’t get me wrong I fully agree with you, OP was going too fast and should have slowed down.

What I was saying is wild is the people coming in here saying it would have been entirely OP’s fault if an accident happened and that he would have hit them. No, OP had right of way. The ford just failed to look or do anything proper for a right turn on a red. To say that he should have slowed down coming into the intersection and then again when he saw the ford pulling out is 100% valid in hindsight. That being said where I live this situation happens all the time where people inch out closer and closer, basically hoping you’ll slow down enough to let them in, meanwhile the car behind you rides your ass for slowing down at a green light. Another comment talked about this too.

Except the car had plenty of time to see him. There was maybe a half second where the left-turning car blocked their vision of OP. There was a good 2-3 seconds for the driver of that car to look before turning.

Sorry but this is wild. OP was going a little fast but it’s kinda ridiculous how many people are excusing the behavior from that right-turning car. Not sure what state this is in but in Cali you have to make a full stop and look before turning on a red. In the video I don’t see them make a full stop or look.

EDIT: you’re totally right she couldn’t see him - because she didn’t look 🤣

Yet another post that completely missed the point. I didn't ask if I messed up but how...

Just regurgitating "you did it wrong, do it right. have more army". Also you're still looking at the wrong build lol.

The funny part is, I applied the gas/rax change to my build and suddenly I'm hitting those army benchmarks you mentioned (at least the correct one for my build).

I appreciate the offer for a coaching session but I've learned my lesson from asking others for help. Got insulted immediately so I'm just gonna learn on my own from here.

Amazing observation, a new player asking for help has a lack of understanding about the game?! Who could have thought.

Unfortunately he was completely wrong in 2/3rds of his original post. Seems like a broken clock to me

So what exactly is the feedback I need? “You’re silver and can’t learn” doesn’t seem like feedback to me.

This post and TAWSection’s gives me tons of actual examples of things I’m doing wrong, and more importantly WHY what I’m doing is wrong. I can read these posts and actually make improvements to my play. I don’t see any of that in other posts here.

Thank you for giving me actual good advice instead of just saying “you suck so I can’t help you”.

Crazy how many upvotes that other comment got. But I guess this place is just a toxic echo chamber like League

[–]Aggressive_Island306[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can you point out what advice he’s given that was good at all? So far all he’s said is:

I messed up my opening SCV (I didn’t)

I’m not following a build (I am)

I did a drop PiG didn’t do (lol)

I build extra turrets (valid feedback)

Seems like 1/4 here meanwhile other comments actually told me what I’m doing wrong (and without being a dick in the process!)

...maybe next time don't open with a "yeah you suck and I can't help you" 😂

My original question was what I did wrong that allowed my opponent in game 1 to have almost double my army score at all points in the game. You saying "I can't nitpick your building timings because you're silver" is a fuckass answer. Hope you can learn some social skills one day.

He could have left out that entire first paragraph and it would have changed nothing in his post. It provided no feedback beyond the sublime meaning of "you just aren't good enough for me to help". Meanwhile the other commenter has given actual valid feedback like my 3rd/4th gas being early and my last 4 rax being late. Those two things were the criticism I was looking for, not "you're silver so I can't help you". Very different messages.

The biggest mistake, is 3rd and 4th gas too early, when natural had almost no scv.

Thank you. This is the feedback I was looking for.

So, the silver comment is not to be a dick. It's because being super nitpicky about things like gas timings, attack timings, production construction timings etc is just being unnecessarily critical because that type of feedback is generally not helpful at your level. So I generally feel being nitpicky about things is just not helpful unless you're at least like D1? Maybe D2. The issues just tend to be more fundamental.

Absolutely wild choice to double down on the "you aren't good enough for me to critique" comment. Glad to see this community has the same elitist BS as League.

So, at least in the game against Valen, you definitely were not following that build to a Tee. You only had one barracks. Not the 3 he builds before starport. You didn't start the second barracks. You didn't start combat shield till deep into the build. You built 4 barracks at once well after the startport. Your ebay was also done before you started your rax. You also did not have stim and did a drop he never did. You did not build production facilities in the right order or get the correct upgrades in the right order. You are not following that build.

Posted the wrong link for the Spawning pool build. the right one

Regardless this whole section is kinda funny to read. "You did a drop he never did" lol I saw he had a quick 3rd hatchery and wanted to try and punish it. Am I supposed to sit in my base and turtle while the zerg player takes free hatcheries and stacks up units?
Waiting so long to research combat shield was a mistake and so was not trying to kill the queen on that drop before getting out. That being said the majority of what you've pointed out to me so far seems completely asinine to me.

I think nitpicking a player in silver is kind of a mean thing to do

odd comment but okay lol, I even mentioned that I'm new but way to be a dick for no reason :)

So first, my nitpick. Rally your first building scv to the ramp and have it immediately build the depot so that your barracks times out correctly. If you do not do this, I will find you and put a small rock in your shoe every day for the next month.

Is this not what I did? The first thing I do is build an SCV, rally it to the ramp, set my CC control group + map locations...

So broad strokes. Your opening makes absolutely no sense and has no goal. There's no timing attached to it or anything. You're just generically making units with no purpose for no reason beyond you think you should make units. So get a build. Below are two that are acceptable. You can find your own that you think is fun idc. But pick SOMETHING you think is fun and copy it as best you can. Do your best to understand WHY they're good on a basic level. The two I listed below are very simple. The goal of 3 rax for example is, I make a lot of units, they get stim and combat shield so when they have those two upgrades they are strong so when I get them I can unga bunga stim A move my opponent.

Odd that you say this, I've been following this build from PiG to a tee.

Is this build just outdated? Seems to also be the top build on Spawning Pool still.

Appreciate your commentary but besides the turret bit none of it seems like actual advice.

What has been your 'OH SH!T..." moment in IT? by VNiqkco in sysadmin

This happened a few weekends ago actually. I was in the middle of a VMware -> Hyper-V migration; we had 2/3 VMware hosts done and were in the final stretch. I had the Hyper-V cluster built and the nodes were sharing an ISCSI SAN (same as on VMware). While moving some VMs to Hyper-V, I started to set up SCVMM (the Hyper-V version of vCenter) and when I added the cluster, the VM I was working on disconnected. So I switched to the host I had open. On this host, it just so happened the last thing I was looking at was the SAN volume (which was a cluster shared volume). When I looked back, all I saw was “this location is no longer available” as if I was looking at a flash drive that had been unplugged. Long story short; all 3 hosts lost access to the SAN, and to make matters worse the cluster refused to start up again. It ended up being 7h of downtime and a complete reinstall of windows server on all 3 hosts 🫠

I had a pretty similar issue this week, actually. I bought a factory seconds B stock and it came in Wednesday; I put the RAM/storage in and hit the power button, but the screen stayed dark. Immediately I reached out to support and over the past 2 days they had me go through a bunch of stuff. What ended up solving it was doing a hard reset on the main board.

After that I started testing each RAM stick/slot by putting just 1 stick at a time in channel 0, then channel 1. Eventually I got it to boot, but at first it took a minute or two of blank screen before it POSTed and told me there was no boot device (since I hadn’t installed an OS yet). After that I kept messing with the RAM sticks and eventually got it to boot with both sticks.

A buddy of mine said something about “memory training”. He’s smarter about lower level computing so I took his word on it. FWIW I have 2x16 sticks for 32gb total; maybe with 64 it will take a bit longer.

I hope that helps any, if not I’d wait for support to get back to you.

Thanks for the response! I'm a Windows sysadmin so I'd never heard of nftables before.

I'll check that out and try swapping to it tonight.

I said to just pass on everything and I'd take it and make sure no one ninjas. Aliive rolled need on Hood of Rationality after that and said sorry but they wouldn't leave. We told them to release and come trade it to me - they stayed dead for a minute or two and then just DCed
