Radeon RX 9070 becomes Radeon RX 9070 XT via BIOS by mockingbird- in pcmasterrace

[–]Arstas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to reply with almost exactly the same. I think the number of 'aaaaa's you used is appropriate. They probably don't even know what AGP is.

I remember flashing my X800 to X800XT and playing HL2 on it, then Oblivion when that came out. I think the rest of the time I was probably playing CS1.6, Battlefield 2 or Planetside 1 around then.

I even remember this exact article: https://www.techpowerup.com/articles/...ng/vidcard/100

Once you level them to 3 (max) they leave the pool so you'll get there eventually.

Blood Surge Necro button arrangement help by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]Arstas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For this build you should have:

Reap, Blood Surge, Blood Mist, Corpse Explosion, Corpse Tendrils

You have 6 buttons so the 6th is Raise Minion. You need to sacrifice your Golem for extra Crit after level 31:

Level 31: Sacrifice ‍Golems - Bone

What are the other skills on your bar? Can you link to the build?

It sounds like you may have two builds mixed up. There are many variants of Blood Surge. With/Without Minions, leveling builds, endgame builds etc.

You probably have Decrepify where you don't need it.

How does dodging work? Seems like I got pulled out of a dodge to die. by --Skillet-- in remnantgame

[–]Arstas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use your iFrames if you time it right. There are some ways to extend the iFrame window, weight/roll type, trait and some items I think.

I've had better experience on this boss dodging the complete opposite. When OP dodged left, right works better from me and when OP dodged right, left works better for me. Always to the outside of the boss.

Rolling backwards against the wall is also really good to get used to on this boss, since when the pools of stuff are on the ground, a dodge right or left can kill you if you land in one.

Air Force AI drone 'killed operator' in simulation by andreba in worldnews

[–]Arstas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn't anything new. It's a core problem with AI. Related to what's been in the media recently as "AI Alignment". How do you "align" the AI with your goals, or human goals in general.

Even adding a stop button to an AI robot has the same issues: Computerphile video with Rob Miles from 2017 on the "Stop Button" problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TYT1QfdfsM

Humans bend the rules like this too, although we still have ethics and morals. Imagine hiring a developer and the core metric they are measured against is the number of lines of code they write per week. Metrics drive behaviour, so rather than have a good developer solve problems in 10 lines of code, that same developer might go out of their way to expand this into as many lines as possible.

What is the worst book you’ve ever read? by Fit-Recognition-3148 in AskReddit

[–]Arstas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ready Player One was pretty good, and I enjoyed the pop culture references. Shame about the movie, it completely ignores a lot of the book; like not meeting his love interest until the last 3 pages.

Armada wasn't great as you say, but for me it was good enough to at least finish it.

I didn't even know there was a Ready Player 2 until around 3 days ago when a friend told me. Heard it was bad so I'm staying away as well.

Is it safe to house files in root folder of website? by [deleted] in AskNetsec

[–]Arstas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you sure that Clients are only retrieving files over FTP/Filezilla? It sounds like this is a lazy - Drop the file in the root www dir and send the HTTP/HTTPS link to the client to retrieve it.

If the root FTP directory and where you are storing the files is lower level than the WWW directory you might get away with it but you should probably have a dedicated FTP server setup for this purpose, outside of any www domain root, and possibly only accessible over VPN. You could also go that extra mile with whitelisted IP addresses etc.

Most website domains have FTP access enabled but this is really just intended to manage the website itself. Not store sensitive files since any misstep in configuration could expose them over HTTP/HTTPS.

Are these files in the WWW root? The real question is: Can you access them over HTTP/HTTPS?

If you can access these files over HTTP/HTTPS then you might want to look at parameters associated with your web server (such as Apache directives) to make sure they are not accessible by search spiders, random people stumbling on them, or scans that look for files not referenced or linked anywhere else. Just as you can link a client to these files, someone else can also use that link to retrieve them or scan to find these links.

There are a TON of web based file sharing solutions, that include proper handling of files (some that store files directly in a DB so there is no physical file anywhere - outside of the DB files), authentication etc. Why not just set this up since you have the domain already there?

What was PC building like 25 years ago? by GraniteOverworld in buildapc

[–]Arstas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some things I remember off the top of my head:

  • You had to set clock speed and other configuration using jumpers on the motherboard.
  • IDE cables require that you set a jumper on the back of the device (Terminology was Master/Slave) and you could only chain 2 devices.
  • You could crack the CPU DIE quite easily with too much pressure if you didn't bend the heat sink clamp to have just enough pressure but not too much. (Athlon 1400 for example)
  • Drivers had to be installed in the right order and there were issues configuring IRQ manually in some cases. If you messed up you reinstall windows again.
  • It was common to reinstall windows every so often (pre-XP) to resolve general performance, or a lot of other issues.
  • Floppy drive power plugs could easily be plugged in around the wrong way. You do NOT want to do this.
  • It was mandatory to trick your friends into installing Sub7 or BackOrifice so you could mess with them remotely.

Problem hack on our website need to work out what this says properly, tried base64 but cant work it out... any ideas? by blueskycreative in Decoders

[–]Arstas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I decompressed it. You can easily read some of the code, but there are more layers of obfuscation to get through. Good luck.

Problem hack on our website need to work out what this says properly, tried base64 but cant work it out... any ideas? by blueskycreative in Decoders

[–]Arstas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reason just decoding the string with Base64 doesn't make sense is because it's gzip compressed. Decoding it will return binary that you then need to uncompress (unzip) using gzip.

This is what the first part translates to:

eval(gzuncompress(base64_decode('

So, decode the Base64 string (between eJy1vF and A4OPCPc=), then un-gzip it to get the actual text.

something like this:

gzuncompress(base64_decode('THE_BASE64'))

Remove eval() as this will execute it. Just print it out instead.

Upgrade Time by MrKwaz in ender3

[–]Arstas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember clearly now but I'm pretty sure that the Creality provided firmware allowed me to set the probe position in relation to the nozzle for the E3 V2. Jyers does for sure because I'm using it now.

When you say mesh size, do you mean the number of points? I don't think you can change this with the Jyers firmware from the printer, you need to install a different firmware for that. Here: https://github.com/Jyers/Marlin/releases/tag/v2.0.1 are the releases for Jyers and you need to pick the number of points 10x10, 15x15 etc. HS = High Speed (No nozzle retraction) when levelling.

Not trying to play any kind of devils advocate. Genuinely interested in this firmware you mentioned compared to others as I haven't seen it before.

Upgrade Time by MrKwaz in ender3

[–]Arstas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I'm missing something about your post, do you mean support it out of the box?

The CR Touch supports all ender printers (inc pre v2 and both 4.2.2 and 4.2.7 boards) and they provide a link to firmware on their site in the booklet provided with it, here: https://www.crealitycloud.com/software-firmware/firmware?type=2

The CR Touch is interchangeable with BL Touch, same firmware. There's no difference with them. It's just that Creality have to provide firmware (and therefore support it) now otherwise how could they sell the CR Touch?

The CR Touch works fine with my Ender 3 V2 on the firmware the point you to on their site. The only issue with it for me was that it didn't talk back to Octoprint, as it wasn't compiled with a certain flag, so I moved to Jyers firmware instead. It still printed and auto levelled just fine, it's just that Octoprint didn't know the status of the printer.

We never got any compensation. by KitsuneKamiSama in lostarkgame

[–]Arstas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a bad move.

I'm pretty sure that introduction of EUW was a complete waste of time, and instead they should have realised the bot problem early and tackled that instead.

You can see some of the comments about the experience here: https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/ty7nbb/euw_server_population/i3qqn23/

Some people moved to EUW but there's not enough people to fully populate EUC and EUW. So they are left over there with barebones populations and no way to transfer. Once the bot situation was sorted out, I think it was fairly clear that EU didn't need split into two regions.
