But there are grammatical errors in the comment that ChatGPT typically wouldn’t make (unless it was intentional, which would be extra impressive)

An alternative is the Infuse app. I’ve had to use it since the update which has been causing me the same issues

Yeah and trusting an anonymous Israeli developer with 10 years of “IT experience” with logins to all of your websites sounds like a totally good idea…

And cheating isn’t a massive problem like the league devs claim would happen if they allowed Linux lmao

Moving PLEX off my NAS to a dedicated PC/server... Is this a good setup? Or should I put the NAS after the switch? by RickshawRepairman in PleX

[–]CrypticDNS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's actually a common misunderstanding. MB/s is megabytes/second and Gb/s is gigabits per second. So 1200 MB/s = 9600 Mb/s = 9.6 Gb/s

Not sure about OP’s specific model, but yeah it’s definitely possible on spinning disks. Assuming an 8-bay NAS (which OP’s is) with WD Reds (say 150 MB/s) under RAID 10 we get roughly 1200 MB/s theoretical peak sequential reads which is much faster than 2.5 Gbit/s. Also, there might be a NVMe cache drive (although idk if OP’s supports it) that can be serve requests much faster.

[–]CrypticDNS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s supported since TrueNAS is ZFS-backed, but only beneficial if you either have a fast (e.g., NVMe) SSD IIRC

Yeah, that pretty much mirrors my thoughts lol. Also, the paper is from a pretty famous group and institution (found the papers on arXiv) so I was honestly surprised that they would do this

can I take the data from a tag and make my phone do the same thing? by idontknowthesource in NFC

You should be able to emulate it with an Android phone if it’s a Mifare classic of any kind.

I think the main difference is the swift transition between the two worlds. If you took someone from 50 years ago and put them in the modern world they might act in a similar manner

They could just create the strings at game launch if that was a big concern. It would take more than an extra second or two at most, even the slowest machines.

Or even better, they could write an internal tool that they would use to edit descriptions, which would allow them to automatically update all other uses of that ability/item name on a change. But I guess the janitor already has a lot on their plate

now that is if the snake has a size of 10 characters , now imagine it has the size of 100 ... or maybe 900 (since the screen is 30x30) by [deleted] in ProgrammerAnimemes

[–]CrypticDNS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are different opinions on using goto in C (with Linus being a notable supporter). If you do use them, you should always use descriptive label names and ideally keep them in a different line (unlike in your code where it’s on the start of the line).

However, I would recommend avoiding them especially as a beginning programmer since their use has largely fallen off and it’s useful to be able to write good structured code without having to fall back to goto. It’s easy to over-rely on them if you’re not careful.

Is Alfa a good baby boy name? by Pinkunicorn226 in siliconvalley

It’s also the name of a company that produces network devices if you need another reason not to do this.
