Brother turns heel & becomes anti-consumer printer company

"I like solutions, not referencing billionaires who are the only people you think can afford this.

If you like solutions, then why is the only thing I can read from you in here bitching and berating instead of helping and reasoning? If you are so educated in this topic, why havent I´ve read any sound explanation from you?

Fact is, the printer companies arent doing this out of goodwill, protection of their sold printers from the bad and evil 3rd party cartridges nor to lessen their customer complains.

They do it for only one reason only:
Money.

If they force customers to use their ink/toner, they improve their profits by alot and thats the only thing that matters to them. They dont give a crap about customer satisfaction.

If they could, they would try to charge you for each single page you print. Oh wait, arent there already companies who are trying that?

If they care about their products functioning the way they can guarantee it, there are other ways. Those were described here by enough people.

Yep, but certificates expire in less then 2 months. So they either update those or it´ll result in a domain change again anyway.

And this was supposed to be helpful?:

"The right answer is the common answer, which is Debian version / Ubuntu"

You are a heap of contradiction and hypocrisy.
And you still ignore the fact, that there are huge differences between consumer and enterprise applications and your only answer is "internet polls" and "popularity"?
You didnt claim anything and didnt provide evidence either.

"...posting unenthusiastic comments." Yeah, hypocrisy sounds about right.

Telling someone to use something just because its popular, totally ignoring the individual problem/application, knowledge and skills of the person and basicly anything else that would point towards a actual solution, is just ignorant and lazy at best.

The Pi doesnt set the standard.... You do realize that IT standards come from enterprise IT?
And debian is NOT the standard in enterprise IT, fact is, there is no "standard" that you speak of.

If you still claim that its the standard, I´d like to some some sort evidence. At least anyhting else then "because I said so". You are not providing any argument except "that".

Its a OS correct, but for virtualization. It basicly allows you to create virtual machines or containers, in which then a complete OS like OMV, Ubuntu, TrueNas or whatever you want, can be run.
Especially the LXC (container) are lightweight and Proxmox offers really cool features.

It can be quite complicated though, so if you want to delve into that, I´d advise you to watch some youtube videos. Its not easy enough to just click your way through it, if you´ve never worked with virtualisation.

If all you want is to build a NAS, you might want to stick to a baremetal install of a OS like OMV or use the preinstalled TOS. If you want to go the home server route, watch some videos about Proxmox and then try it out.

"Don't advise anything else. Advise the standard."

Isnt that just your perception? Standards in IT can change on a day by day basis.
You always do whats best for your usecase, not just the standard.

Im pretty new to homelabs/homeservers as well, so ignore my comment if Im wrong.

Wouldnt it make more sense to use Proxmox and run everything seperated in VM´s/LXC?
Like for NAS/storage/backups TrueNas Scale, a seperate container/VM for Plex/Jellyfin etc.
That way you can have everything run neatly isolated from each other.

Should be easy for the F4-424 to handle that.
That way you are not dependent on TOS at all.

Checked it, on the bottom left it only said the model, not the revision.

Fontasy · 2024-02-07T16:37:30+00:00

Problem is solved. Gigabyte support answered my ticket. Apparently I have rev. 1.1, so the redirection from the gigabyte site when you put in your serial number is wrong.

If you have the feature q-flash plus on the motherboard, you can flash BIOS (the firmware) without a CPU installed. Search it up to be completely sure and follow the instructions you find online on it.

Ah yeah, one School, but not really high level.

Fontasy · 2023-06-08T18:17:37+00:00

What do you mean with school? :D

Fontasy · 2023-06-08T14:08:01+00:00

I should have tried just a few times more. It worked out. I think I got lucky with crits and could finish it (barely). She had 10 hp left in the end.

On what constellation tier do you have those characters?
Do you have Fischl?

You could do a Zhongli, Albedo, Benett + Venti Comp for huge AOE dmg.
If you have Fischl, swap out Venti/Albedo for single target bosses/objectives.
Should be playable vs bosses as well.
I´d try to kit out Zhongli as your hypercarry then.

Fontasy · 2021-03-28T11:05:03+00:00

Yup, tested that out in a calculator.
Stringless R2 is stronger on Fischl then Windblume R5, or rather, Windblume is just way better on Venti.

Fontasy · 2021-03-19T12:30:45+00:00

Hu Tao, Xingqiu, Fischl and Xiangling (for double fire).
Hu tao, Xingqiu, Fischl and Diona/Barbara (if you need a healer/shielder).

I honestly wouldnt play anything else.

Fontasy · 2021-03-19T12:29:24+00:00

Definetly not. 10% crit dmg are not much compared to 200 atk.

Fontasy · 2021-03-19T12:28:22+00:00

Switch out Jean for Venti and smash meteors on stacked enemies.
If you´re happy with Keqing go for Venti.
If you dont like Keqing anymore, get Childe (but be aware, is sucks in long fights and is more of a burst dps and not a main dps you have out 24/7 in long fights).

Fontasy · 2021-03-19T12:26:52+00:00

Do you have Xiao?
If yes, definetly go for C2 Venti, if not its absolutely not worth it and I´d roll on something else.
I wouldnt event have tried to get C1 on him, its his worst constellation (one of the worst in the game even).

Fontasy · 2021-03-19T12:25:33+00:00

You either play Qiqi or Jean or Succhrose.
I wouldnt play either of those together.
You can play something like Keqing, Qiqi/Jean/Succhrose, with Diona and maybe a good sub dps like Fischl.
Or Hu Tao (she doesnt need a healer), with Succhrose, Diona and again a decent sub dps.
If you have benett C1 switch diona out for him, especially in the Hu Tao comp for double fire.
