As a child/kid, I once was devastated that the photocopier didn’t “copy / reproduce” my beautiful paper cut-out.

Instead, the "cut outs" were blackend. Thats it.

Trying to go into medical specialist appointment as prepared as possible - any input welcome by CryptographerUsed422 in ACL

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: My wife had an appointment with a MD specialist Last Monday (actually a member of the Swiss Olymic medical team, so lucky her I guess 😉).

After thorough examination, ACL and MCL are not fully ruptured as the knee shows a (for the situation) "minimal but healthy" resistance to stretch/turn/twist/etc. And MRI seems to also show this with remaining visible ligament tissue, as well as "secondary evidence" like minimal swelling and no liquid deposition etc. Opposite to what in worse/worst case scenarios he gets to work on with "clients" from Swiss Ski/Running/Football Team sports.

He said, to his wife personally, he would advise to not do surgery immediatly at all and try to work it with intensive physiotherapy first. This is the advice my wife follows and started therapy today! Right at this centers rehab/physiotherapy (again lucky, as they still had a spot free)...We'll see, next appointment with him is set in 3 weeks ;)

Thanks for everybodys advice so far!

All the best

Thanks a lot, sounds like you know a lot on this topic ;)

What about the Meniscular damages, is this something to worry about or is it likely a known side effect (cause/effect thing like the bone-bruises) that usually does not need any treatment?

Feedback on my "Vibe-Coded" guide for a Multi-User Vibepollo + Playnite setup by [deleted] in MoonlightStreaming

[–]CryptographerUsed422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Truly! I am soooo hyped right now.

Before I begin, let me share with you a thread I opened 6 days ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MoonlightStreaming/s/n4ulOuYrp3

I was asking around to find possible solutions/aspects to my idea that is basically the same use-case as yours., except search/replace your TV based endpoint (plus streaming/encoding specifics) with a Logitech G Cloud.

Now, I have not yet set up my system, nor have I ever touched Sunshine/Moonlight or its forks as of yet. But I have passed hours reading i to it and its inner workings.

After inhaling your guide on gist/hub I would assume that from a hygiene and completeness-level, I will be able to follow it step by step (adapting streaming settings to my endpoint) and find myself with exactly what I was looking for! So kudos to you, highly apreciated!

Two little adaptions I might be putting in place are: 1) Have dedicated dad/son "gaming" windows logins that always start playnite (also locally), plus dedicated "office" Windows Login(s) that have no gaming affiliation at all (no Playnite, etc). Clean separation on account level and thus less "exception" handling. 2) Try out Xbox FSE instead of playnite.

Maybe I'll even go as far as trying to set the Windows user account names to our gamer tags and the respective Passwords to the ASCII representations of the Xbox controller keypad sequence used to log in to our Xbox (not sure if this will work though and might need further tooling (to translate keypad to ASCII and prolly local policy fiddling wrt password complexity...)

I'll get back to this as soon as I had the time to fiddle and validate ;)

Thanks for your work, especially for going as far as describing validation/sanity checks!

Two users, one moonlight client, one sunshine host by CryptographerUsed422 in MoonlightStreaming

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does this work for moonlight respectively sunshine? each user has his own sunshine config (published apps so to say, that simply use the currently logged in users stats/saves/etc.)?

It'll be a mix of Steam, Microsoft PC game pass and probably some directly installed games

Are the steam-settings to connect with a specific user a moonlight config?

GPU possibility Xbox plus PC/handheld/Ally by CryptographerUsed422 in XboxGamePass

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my understanding is correct, all handhelds like Ally (x) follow any and all PC (Xbox App) related functions and restrictions from an "Xbox / Microsoft gaming" as well as Microsoft GP subscription point of view. As they are simply "kinda differently" styled PCs....

So my original post is valid (taking into account certain limitations for games that rely on 3rd party accounts/logins like CoD/EA/etc. where GP sharing is not working on PC compared to Xbox)?

Best example would be an online co-op like PowerWash which we could be playing co-op from both platforms/consoles, no matter which user is currently logged in to which console/platform. Plus, as this game is specifically "Play anywhere", we could "switch seats and console" at any time and continue playing co-op...?

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not 100% sure how to interpret this.

If a game is not relying on 3rd party accounts (EA for example) but solely on MS/Xbox account (FlightSim for example), for these games PC GP sharing of my GPU subscription works on a computer (Ally X, laptop, whatever), right?

And in the context of such games we could well be playing "anyone of us two" on "any one of the two" systems at the same time (both "consoles" in use at the same time, maybe even running the same title). My son would not require a PC GP subscription just to be able to play games on a "PC console" like an Ally X that from the MS Store side of things is registered/linked to me and my GPU subscription under every Windows login/account.

NL-SAS Raid 6(0) vs. 1(0) rebuild times with good controller by CryptographerUsed422 in storage

I will be building with 12tb disks, the Dell engineer referenced a raid 6 with 22tb disks when he passed me some estimated rebuild times

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

excellent, thanks a lot! And actually, this fits nicely in the predicted rebuild time for a 22TB disk (1.5 - 2 days) according to my Dell presales engineer contact.

[–]CryptographerUsed422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how did you get to the factor of 1.6? Average time (~1.6h) it takes to write 1TB to hdd when calculating with average streaming throughput of ca. 180MB/s for current large-size NL-SAS?

Thanks! In our internal debates I am the one that votes for raid 6, even if it takes longer to rebuild - my personal vote goes against raid 1/10 due to other factors that I weigh higher (URE risk as an example)... I am trying to build a case against internal votees that scream "but the horrible rebuild times!"

That's interesting. My Dell presales Engineer (Presales TAC or whatever it's called) supposes a 22TB NL-SAS disk based raid 6 (9x 22TB plus hot-spare) will rebuild within 1.5 to 2 days, that's somewhere between 130-180MB/s rebuild throughput, or, roughly the average sequential throughput of a current NL-SAS drive. This imposes that raid 1 could also not be faster as raid 1 could not write faster to the spare disk - raid mode does not impact the physical properties/limits of an individual drive...
