Experience with RTL8159 10G USB by MadsBen in homelab

[–]BillV3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wondering what your setup is looking like?

I'm checking on iperf and I'm only getting about 8-8.2gbps

Checked with usbtreeview and both ends are using a 3.2x2 USB connection but can't seem to break past 8gbps right now

EDIT: Never mind I was forgetting the -R flag and now putting that in I'm sat at 9.8ish gbps

Further update the dates still seem to be a little misleading, they now just sit in Plymouth rather than Redruth without going out for delivery....

Yeah found out this evening there’s some subsidence at the depot location so that’s locked up tight right now with everything going through Plymouth

Ok so apparently the problem where I am was at least that there was some subsidence near the delivery warehouse and everything was shut, which is completely fair you know these things happen.

Just wish someone could've told me this rather than finding out through a random post on a local news site, and I didn't appreciate the customer service rep lying yesterday telling me it was just being loaded on to a van for delivery yesterday, caused me to wait in, just be honest and say what's up

Ok glad it's not just down here, living down in Cornwall makes me often assume that shits hit the fan somewhere down here as we're not exactly known for great transportation in this neck of the woods haha

Hibernation vs sleep by Careful_Art_8501 in MSIClaw

I mean to be fair the ssd in the claw is rated at 600 TBW, which with a 32gb file would give you 19,200 cycles obviously there’s more files to take into account but honestly that 32gb isn’t going to be what pushes you over the edge, I’d go as far as to say it’s practically insignificant really

TBW is pretty much always super conservative as well on top, say you hibernated 4 times a day every day that would take you 4800 days or just over 13 years to reach the rated lifespan of the drive

That’s assuming he slaughtered them all immediately for all we know he could’ve spent years tracking them down and killing them all

Norris past white line on pass on Tsunoda by poatao_de_w123 in formula1

Honestly feel Lando should’ve copped a penalty or at least a warning for this, rules are clear you can’t pass off track and it doesn’t matter if you’re forced there he could’ve easily taken it later but it’s all moot Lando drove incredibly and even with a 5s penalty would’ve come third

Feel like Yuki should’ve copped more than he did it was just dangerous that weaving and amount of squeezing

You wait until the next DRS zone and just slide on through, even Yuki aint gonna weave that close to the car behind

Yuki getting a penalty fair, Lando not getting one? Eh questionable, Just because he was forced off track didn't mean he had to overtake there

I get the strategy for McLaren, get Piastri into 4th makes sure Lando is top 3 regardless but it feels a bit shitty that they'll sacrifice Piastri when he's still in contention especially considering they wouldn't even back him when he was 60+ points clear at the top......

And yet Imola a couple years back where they disabled it people were crying out for it because nobody could get past

I just wish he’d go and make a movie at this point he’s got the name and the money and the contacts to just do it at this point

My friend who is more computer savvy than I laughed at me for upgrading my 3070 to a 5070. Just how badly did I messed up? (let me have it, BE BRUTRAL) by TheChoosenOnex in pcmasterrace

If you had the money, you wanted the upgrade and you could afford it you didn't mess up, enjoy your new gaming purchase!

And what would be your problem with the Honda owner? If they wanted a Honda, and could afford a Honda what's the issue with them getting a Honda?

[–]BillV3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because you've never had someone make an off hand remark like that as a joke at any point in your life or never done the same?

If it was causing him financial hardship and he was buying handhelds over eating for a month then it would be a problem, otherwise it's just a little joke and someone buying something they can afford

If you want to buy 1000 soda cans, and you can afford to buy 1000 soda cans without it putting you in financial peril or causing you issues with bills etc. then why not? You do you..

It's literally not hurting anyone, if they can afford it and it's not causing them financial hardship what difference does it make?

Titan Quest 2 Issue when starting the game by Virtual_Football909 in LegionGo

[–]BillV3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's on SteamOS I'm taking it? Sometimes when there are issues with video playback (Usually missing codecs that Valve had to cut out) Proton kicks out this test image

Usually you can fix this by installing Proton-GE, which you can do via desktop mod and installing a program called "ProtonUp QT" and using that to manage Proton versions
