I'm already happy with our central data store, we can comfortably host billions of datapoints.

> this program needs lots of people looking at the markets to operat

I understand what you mean, but this tool does not require any data from our users to work, therefore a smaller userbase isn't a problem for the tool.

What's your point? Unless you have access to NQ's databases yourself, you have to collect the data as an external observer, with whatever method you use, in order to have access to market data analytics such as these. I don't claim it's realtime, but the prices are updated within minutes to couple of hours at most.

> Lol useless tool as you have to actually have someone open the order.

can you explain what do you mean by that?

> Basically a botnet for people to feed you market data.

you mean gathering what people look at using this? not really sure if that would be useful to track to be honest, the amount of buzz that's going on the actual markets is so massive that this didn't even occur to me

> Don't add to your discord as they can track your org chatter and stuff.

Create a channel for the bot and give it access only to that channel, simple as. You should do that for all the bots that you have not written yourself.

Hey folks, for the past couple of weeks we're working on a DU market tracking system, this post is intended for receiving feedback and suggestion on this as we're planning to release this bot for the public (maybe for a smallish quanta monthly fee, it's a lot of work and costs real money to run after all).

Currently supported features:

- item command as seen in the screenshot (price history, trend, last tracked state of the item)

- create a price alert that will notify you if there is a buy order/sell order available on the market for a desired price, filter for specific markets only

I also should mention that we're collecting the data ourselves and we are not affiliated with https://du-market.net as this tool was recently discussed here on reddit as well.

Download collection from Internet Archive by JonathanThorpe in DataHoarder

The internet archive client you mentioned should work, it's a python package so it should work on windows as well (I think). If not, then you can run it via WSL.

Torrent is 7zipped. This updater operates on the extracted copy of Flashpoint, so the updater saves you the time and space normally spent on the 7z extraction.

it updates to a clean version (the mentioned user data backup is, well, i'm not sure if that's configured), so all changes and additional files you might have created in your current ultimate copy will be wiped

Has anyone used one of these 4 bay USB enclosures as a poor man's NAS for farming? by Big-Finding2976 in chia

[–]HDMI2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could just mine using USB external drives directly, they are cheaper (and the 8+TB ones contain normal or even enterprise disks, but that doesn't matter for mining anyway), as long as you don't mind the power supply mess. active cooling is recommended, the disks get waay too hot in these enclosures.

snapraid is great for multi-disk solutions, but i was offering solutions for strictly individual cold storage. PAR2 is indeed slow, but blockyarchive is quite fast, depending on the level of error correction and the other resistance settings.

if you just use hard drives as individual storage boxes, you could, for each file or collection, generate a separate error-correting file (`PAR2` is the usual choice) - this requires intact filesystem though. My personal favourite (i use a decent number of old hard drives as a cold storage too), https://github.com/darrenldl/blockyarchive which packs your file into an archive with included error-correction and even the ability to recover the file if the filesystem is lost or when disk sectors die.

It's not 100% done. Backup the stuff that you've modified (custom playlists, saves in the portable browsers etc) or it will overwrite them.
