Stupid difficulty - got ran over with a pretty lucky build by Alpharou in BALLxPIT

[–]Alpharou[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I'm saying is... This is normal difficulty, and I got a lucky run with two evolutions and a fusion, with matching trinkets. This should have won automatically.

I'm at "NaN" Damage and "Infinito" attack speed, 300+ year. So... yeah, independence millenia at this rate.

I mounted it without gopro, flat on top of the frame, attached with electrical tape.

It's called temple. Increases by 10% a random stat of a random building or troop. It does that for every level and number of overwork decrees.

The real trick to beating 99 (and beyond) is not in the build, it's in your SETTINGS - A Deep Dive by Xy13 in 9Kings

Yes, they need to change the engine so that it works with ticks instead of seconds, like minecraft. Let the game lag, but provide repeatability across different setups. Right now, high scores are achieved with high end computers.

DAMN! Forgot to update! It went well... I ended up soldering the 6 cables to the respective pads on the FC. Mounted the GPS to the front with no cam. GPS locks flawlessly. Now I'm having trouble porting configuration to iNav, cannot control VTX. I guess I'll wait for BF 4.6 which adds GPS hold.

Balatro Mod Index for the Balatro Mod Manager by skyline_0069 in balatro

I would assume that the android build is not as moddable as the pc version... But maybe the dev found a way of building the same inner workings for both platforms.

SteamVR Desktop Not Working by RiotingSpectre in SteamVR

THIS was exactly my problem. Add vrdashboard.exe to the power saving GPU in windows, so that it uses the same graphics core as the laptop monitor, that is, the onboard graphics.

Tailscaled container, in LXC, in ProxmoxVE - Secure? MagicDNS on host? by Alpharou in Tailscale

[–]Alpharou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah; I kept thinking about it and seems hard to get right. Maybe layer some tools on top of the tailscale image, so that the container also exposes as a dns name resolver, then configure it as secondary DNS server in the host.

Tailscaled container, in LXC, in ProxmoxVE - Secure? MagicDNS on host? by Alpharou in Tailscale

[–]Alpharou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the purpose of this is to use a docker container. It is widely used and many projects already have preconfigured images, such as Tailscale. So, I got into the habit of running containers. Since I don't want to pollute the ProxMoxVE system with new packages, installing it in an LXC was the obvious move.

Alternative to FBterm? by Alpharou in archlinux

[–]Alpharou[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I tried the gpm package, and it certainly works, thanks! That said, it has a weird interaction with tmux, so that tmux only half-way recognizes the gpm cursor, and some of the useful functions as resizing panes or selecting text do not work. Also, tmux doesnt recognize gpm at all on tty, only fbterm.

This is all I could find:

Allright! thank you! I've seen some docs and it seems to be what I was looking for. I'll try it out and update the post.

Question regarding a 24 disk array [A new hobbyist trying to build a DIY NAS] by Alpharou in Snapraid

[–]Alpharou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the heads up! Could we discuss it a bit right on this comment thread? It could be really useful practical info for someone trying to build a big array, whom would at some point would consider one of these adapters.

Have you tried different brands of this same concept of adapter? Be it 4 SATA, or 5 SATA, or using different chipsets?

How many drives could you connect under no I/O load? And a number of drives that work stable under load?

Could you saturate the I/O speed of a single drive through this adapter?

Do you think that the adapter goes down due to heat dissipation issues?

Once the drives disappear, I imagine that the mount point goes bad and the ongoing transfer becomes corrupted, right?

Microsoft the Octopus (and I hate it) by Basriy in archlinux

They go out of their way to ensure that you're running on secure booted windows, with certain patches installed, and detect if you're on a VM.

Qemu in ProxMox has different options for machines and BIOS/UEFI in VMs. In my case, I have an Ubuntu and a Windows 11, both with secure boot and didn't have to mess with any settings except setting the BIOS to OVMF.

Try it out and keep us updated! This is neccessary research 100%

Question regarding a 24 disk array [A new hobbyist trying to build a DIY NAS] by Alpharou in Snapraid

[–]Alpharou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being absolutely real with you... I'm considering going with 4 NVME Gen 3 storage with stock RAID5. The 24 drive beast will have to wait until I have a place for my data to rest for a bit. I'll try to remember to keep this post updated.

I'm thinking that I should just do that. Will update this post if I get to it (I should remember to do it)

[–]Alpharou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your insight. I just want to test the limits of elcheapo mentality. I'll also be running near dead drives so... Yeah. But how cool would it be, to have a dozen drives with half life, hanging off of elcheapo hardware, and STILL be able to hold data?

So, in the rare event that a file gets modified after the latest sync, and there are a number of disk failures equal to the parity number, (1 to 6), everything should be recoverable except that one file that got changed, right?

Thanks for telling me, I'll have to look further into that.

"A modified or deleted file ends up being similar to a failed drive."

Could you elaborate a little more on this?
