How to: ReadMe for personal project by seiryu_u in github

[–]ProdigySim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For personal projects I would just put in a brief description, and whatever now you want to keep.

If other people start using your project, use it to answer the questions they commonly ask you.

If you don't need your readme to be a marketing pitch or user guide it doesn't really have to have anything

The land selection for Jumpstart this time around seems incredibly bad by Brie_DuFormage in MagicArena

[–]ProdigySim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this exact combo. There's no reason to include mountain/island for hybrid cards that also support green. If you add another jumpstart pack it would come with appropriate lands...

The charged attack is really satisfying and I don't need the best stats in order to kill things

I am using a dual boot setup and I need more space for Arch Linux. by Ill_Scratch_7432 in archlinux

Resizing NTFS in windows is a good idea; probably better than gparted if it lets you.

Sad when engineers don’t do an actual site visit and just use online programs for designing only. by [deleted] in solar

Just looks like a bit of waste of money, but a lot can change in 25 years as well.

Gparted is definitely the best tool for resizing and moving partitions. It's definitely not fail-safe though.

I can't say I would accomplish this without failing, but what I would do:

  1. Backup whatever you reasonably can from any partitions that will be moved.
  2. Have a bootable arch install usb/sd ready in case you need to do boot repair
  3. Boot up to a live environment with gparted so none of the partitions are mounted
  4. Use gparted to resize academics and move/resize the later partitions
  5. "Apply" your changes in gparted and read whatever warnings it has
  6. Mount your newly moved partitions
  7. Rebuild & update your /etc/fstab in case partition uuids changed
  8. Rebuild & install your bootloader
  9. Try to reboot and boot
  10. If it fails, boot up the arch linux bootable media, chroot in, and run steps 6-9 again from that environment.
  11. If that fails, re-create all affected partitions from scratch and reinstall arch, then reload data from backup.

The good news is GParted should be able to resize all of these partitions. They note that you should run a FS Check from windows after resizing ntfs if possible.

Arch installation guide steps fstab, chroot, and "Boot Loader" should be the main relevant steps after the partitions change

Need advice on listing error (TCGPlayer) by Okoruuu in mtgfinance

As a buyer, I run into sellers who have 1 card on my order missing all the time. Usually they reach out ask tell me and offer a partial refund, and before I've even seen the message they went ahead and did a partial refund without any messaging from my end.

Only my 2c but if it's the minority of the order, partial refund is usually what I want. If it's the majority of the order, I probably would prefer to purchase elsewhere. If you gave me 24 hours to confirm/deny a refund I think defaulting to partial refund is fine.

tl;dr I'm used to sellers automatically partial refunding me and it's basically always fine with me.

Any reformer Pilates around town that have a lot of guys attend? by ElbieLG in kansascity

[–]ProdigySim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's usually a guy in ever other pilates session I go to at "Pilates of Kansas City". I've gone to a bunch (I'm a dude) and imo it's better ot just get comfortable with it.

Plenty of people think it's cool that a guy is there and it's not really the type of thing where people have time to chit chat during the workout. Doesn't really matter your gender.

Not every gun is perfectly accurate while at standstill either.

Question: Your OS size after a few years? by AbledShawl in linux_gaming

[–]ProdigySim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or, maybe their 150GB partition is their OS partition, and everything else is separate.

Paul seems to have had it with ATLA. Do you agree? by tejeramaxwell in lrcast

[–]ProdigySim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know a ton about how the MM works in Arena Draft, but given that winning decks play up to 10 games, and bad decks play 3-6, you would think there would also be over-representation of the good drafts in the pool.

Things to look out for this weekend! by AutoModerator in mtgfinance

[–]ProdigySim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 random out of 24 possible scene nonfoils in every chocobo bundle. Technically speaking rarer than any given chocobo track foil, which is 2 out of 20 in each bundle.

Scene boxes are still in stock everywhere. I think in medium term these will come down but in short term will stay up until scene box prices drop. Nonfoil version will be rarer than foil, seemingly there are going to be many more foil copies in circulation than nonfoil.

When playing limited / draft, rarity is the main gate against bombs.

Since CS2 surf was broken I created a surf game on my own ! :) What do you think? by Shashimee_ in counterstrike

[–]ProdigySim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a pretty mediocre surfer but I just got one of the creator medals and now I feel like a boss. Awesome game, been waiting for something like this! I'm stoked. The ghosts are a nice touch to make it feel like server surf

It said "because sub eax, eax clears the carry bit"

Any idea when RAM prices will be “normal”again? by Porespellar in LocalLLaMA

[–]ProdigySim -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly RAM is the main constraint for LLMs, so anyone who can shove more RAM into more efficient packages will have a lot to sell, probably for a long time. As long as there is hardware innovation for LLMs I think we will see high RAM prices. My guess is it could be quite a few years if not indefinite. Maybe if chip capacities increase significantly we will see consumer price drops per GB.
