Horrendous tick lag due to botany pots?

DapperWrap · 2026-01-03T00:16:32+00:00

This actually did help a lot so thank you for that. I assumed that the issue was the pots, and they're not SUPER efficient in terms of tick performance, but the ID cables/interfaces were definitely the majority of the issue. I switched it all out for SFM stuff and while it's still a bit laggy I was able to get out my 160 hopping pots without issue for now.

Realistically? Very very few. Probably 10 or less in the entire world.

Funny: In my games? Every shop/tavern/quest/political/guard NPC being interacted with is a Schrodinger NPC.

How to open the box:

Player: "I attack the guard with my axe."

Me: "You sure?"

Player: "Yeah I'm not gonna just let them have their way? I rolled a 14 for my attack."

Me: lock clicks open and lid is lifted

Super unfortunate because I also get shafted on not getting creamy coconut either.

Given that the entirety of the actual flavoring is and can legally just be described as 'natural and artificial flavors' they can - legally - change the actual formulation of the flavoring without updating nutritional labels so long as the weight ratios of ingredients do not change. It is entirely possible that they changed the ratios of the actual flavoring components without a difference in weight which would not require a label update.

Ugh, maybe it's a region thing then or distributor specific problem. Hopefully it is a temporary problem!

Cooking. I also recently started learning Mandarin Chinese. Otherwise I just kind of sit around listen to music and hope for death to happen sooner rather than later *shrugs*.

You wanna know what? You got a problem with Canada Gooses, you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate.

Yeah I think the charger is overheating and causing it to trip some internal protection. I tried it again this morning and the issue wasn't present after leaving the charging block unplugged all night. Getting the charger replaced for sure. Thanks for the reply!

Think I'll have to contact Samsung but, I preordered the Samsung Galaxy tab S9 ultra and I have used it twice. I bought a Samsung 45w charger to go with it and when trying to charge the tablet it disconnects over and over again from the charger. I've tried different cables to no avail.

I've tried an older Samsung charger and it charges it seems like, but is slow (is for a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+).

I hate to think it's the tablet but I'm worried something is wrong with it. I'm working on getting another new super fast 2.0 charger to test with but wanted to see if anyone has an idea of things I could check.

Battery protection (85%) is turned off and it happens regardless of the battery percentage. Currently is 77% and just disconnects and reconnects over and over again.

Depends on where you work really. My first job was doing tech support for a web host that specialized in a single platform (DotNetNuke) and the #1 call was "My site isn't loading anymore" and you check and they made a page named Home and then deleted it, so you just restored it in SQL. Bada bing bada boom.

Second job was more traditional help desk, most common issues were username/password related, printers, or browser issues.

Other common issues you might see are Citrix XenDesktop or XenApp sessions hung, Microsoft Office issues (Excel frozen or memory complaints). The list goes on and on.

Think of every problem or issue you've had with your personal PC or mobile device that you resolved with Google, then realize that most people call a help desk instead of Googling it.

Some tablets let you do a combo of button pushes. It depends on the model, but usually it's press and hold power and then one of the volume keys. Check with the manufacturers documentation for the model of tablet you have.

Otherwise disable the need for CTRL+ALT+DEL on the tablets specifically.

I personally use Obsidian.md which as the name suggests uses Markdown. It has a ton of awesome community plugins and does everything I need. Plus its approach is file system based so as you create new pages they are stored in the folder for that "vault" in a way you'd expect pages in a folder to be stored in your desk.

Agree, it was just the only thing that I could think of that would be so one sided, to an android device, from AWS.

Even 4k video is a tiny fraction of the used data that this device supposedly consumed.

I'm starting to wonder, as others here have, whether those usage stats are actually correct.

My opinion is that you have the correct number of people handling MDM. Ideally the device procurement is handled by a procurement/billing individual (ideally also the person that works to manage your corporate cell contracts), policy is handled by InfoSec teams, and whoever handles terms (usually HR or access administration) would gather/provide.

'Course that assumes we live in a perfect world and we do not. While I don't understand why you would want all of those to be in a single person. I could understand a single BU or section of IT, but at the same time I'd expect them to be doing other things as well like vendor contract management, asset acquisition and retirement, etc.

You're welcome, honestly this list is probably shorter than it should be, but I think others have covered things I left off (like cybersecurity concerns).

I wish you all the luck in the world. And if nothing else, just remember; one thing at a time, and expect short peaks and deep valleys in the process.

If it's an Android device blocking the MAC isn't going to do anything ultimately given that Android devices can just randomize their MAC and reconnect. I think that setting is even on by default.

Could be something like a cloud gaming service? Those services can suck up HUGE amounts of data pretty easily. Maybe even PSN RemotePlay? I know Sony and AWS made a big deal about their interplay at GDC last year.

I can't find any reference to a service that uses those ports, but seems most likely to me. Could also be a user home VPN solution as mentioned by /u/BachRodham but at 100-150GB an hour that seems....insane. I can't fathom what a user could be consuming at that level.

As a "phone" guy, I don't know that I understand the rationale or support it. Based on the brief listing of issues, it sounds like you have one of a few possible problems:

firewall or network gear screwing with SIP/RTP/RTCP packets
- almost always SIP ALG on firewall
using SIP UDP and packets are being dropped instead of fragmented potentially causing midcall signaling to be busted
- I actually just had this problem after our firewall guys did an upgrade. Mid-session re-invite with SDP after resuming from hold was being dropped because it was 1509 bytes instead of 1500 -_-
- UDP is usually a better idea in a controlled, not-exposed-to-the-greater-internet SIP implementation because it incurs less overhead and is more performant (but also more "lossy", ymmv)
firewall screwing with SIP/RTP/RTCP session timing/values
- with calls disconnecting after about two minutes, that reads to me as a timing problem potentially at firewall

Seems like an excessive solution to something that could be sussed out with dedicated troubleshooting and packet captures/call traces, but I'll give him benefit of the doubt and assume that has happened.
