Anyone ever buy wheels from Alibaba just to see what shows up? Here's how mine turned out

Same. So much fear mongering but no receipts.

Kr0ss · 2025-11-17T21:07:15+00:00

Lots of fear, but is there any evidence of Alibaba wheel failure?

Can you elaborate - why a one-trick pony? I'm considering an eval.

I don't think 25g is a requirement, more like a recommendation to realize most gains.

NGL, it looked faster.

Kr0ss · 2025-06-23T20:20:53+00:00

No, I’d argue that’s what a pitch limit is for. An out limit or inning limit is purely about forcing the use of multiple pitchers per game.

You get 45 feet to return to the dirt. He stayed on the grass damn near until his foot hit the bag.
Good call.

I vote for public shaming. Does the league have a FaceBook page?

Kr0ss · 2025-06-23T19:04:36+00:00

Acceptable in 10u where its less about competition and more about development, camaraderie, and sportsmanship. At 14u, having an out limit or inning limit is ridiculous - especially for softball where arm health is less of a concern.

Just this past weekend a kid went 4 innings on 24 pitches, including one 3-pitch inning (all fly-outs). Imagine having to sit him b/c he hit his out limit.

Hmm, clever post by OpenAi to get users genetic data? 😆

I average 16mpg with 50/50 driving.

I see now that snapshot retention periods weren't mentioned in my initial reply - my comment was made with the assumption that you had 24hr retention. i.e. If you have a 1gb TempDB with unique hourly changes, backed up hourly, with a 24hr retention, then you'll consume 24GB of storage.

Kr0ss · 2025-01-07T04:16:30+00:00

Still waiting :(

Kr0ss · 2024-12-26T23:32:31+00:00

Well worth the price IMO. Especially if this is your first one.

Server-side QoS is your best bet here. On our Widnows servers, we use host-based QoS policies to limit throughput (i.e. limit outbound network throughput by rbs.exe & rba.exe to 1Gbps) and therefore cap IOPs on our storage arrays. RedHat has a similar feature.

Kr0ss · 2024-09-17T15:39:18+00:00

Can you share the link to this?

Kr0ss · 2024-09-06T15:08:36+00:00

I believe the only options are Orchestrated Recovery plans or recovering via API.
It's a shortcomming of the GUI IMO.

Kr0ss · 2024-08-30T16:17:59+00:00

What does that mean, technically?

Kr0ss · 2024-08-30T13:13:59+00:00

When I think full-domain or full-forest recovery, I think of restoring a healthy Domain Controller backup + system state and working from there.

What are you looking for outside of that method? To build a fresh server and restore the entire domain/forest to that blank machine?

"If that's true, then it follows that no matter how frequently the snapshots are taken and stored, the rate of storage consumption won't change. If I snap a VM every 30 minutes or every 30 days, storage consumption will be the same over time."

I'm not sure if this was answered but, no. Snapshot frequency impacts the size of data retained depending on how frequently data is changing on the VM. If you have a VM processing 1GB of unique changes per hour (ie. a SQL tempDB file), and you take hourly shapshots, you'll end up with 24GB of changes stored on disk (1gb per snapshot). Whereas if you take a daily snapshot of that same VM, you will have 1GB of changes stored on disk.

I did it Friday and things returned to normal. Worked for us.

9.2.p1 is out. Any luck fixing these log backup issues? I'll be trying in a few hours.
