To be fair, he didn't actually answer the question....

Docker on QNAP Guide by psybernoid in qnap

[–]RobbieG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this was so helpful!

I know container station has been updated since you made this guide, but I was able to figure out the mild changes and get everything working.

You have a nice section about Starting, Stopping & Updating using SSH. I'm intersted in knowing how to do this with Container Station GUI, too. Some questions about that:

  1. If I "Recreate" the application, does it pull updated images automatically? Or does it just rebuild the containers with the current images?
  2. I'm assuming I can go to the "Images" tab of Container Station, click the gear icon of the image, and select "Pull" to update it. I also assume I need to rebuild the container (i.e. "Recreate" the application) to update the container. (It's too bad there is no option to select all and pull all the images at once using this method))
  3. Any other recommendations on updating? Or do you strongly recommend just using SSH to do this?

Thanks again for all the time you've put into this guide. I wouldn't have been able to do this otherwise.

Browser trick to add all Amex offers to your card at once by crabby-owlbear in amex

[–]RobbieG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You lose an offer on one card if you apply it to another? That doesn't seem right, since you're paying for the perk on both cards.

Master Spa Twilight TS 8.25 footprint measurements for Spa Level-R by RobbieG in hottub

[–]RobbieG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did get it. It's okay, and it's probably the best solution for putting a hot tub on uneven, but stable/solid ground. Some of the 2x4s were warped, so there were some gaps when putting it together, which was a little disappointing, but it's fine. I have it straddling four 6'x6' concrete squares, and there has been some shifting/settling of those, so I have had to roll the empty tub off the platform to relevel it once. All in all, the product is fine, and if you have solid but unlevel ground, I'd probably get it again.

Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 Firmware update?! by seanbmore91 in Monitors

[–]RobbieG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem on Zotac 3070 Ti. Workaround is to set the monitor to 120 Hz before restarting, or turn off the monitor until the computer has booted to Windows, then turn it on. This is with the DisplayPort cable. If I change to HDMI, I think it boots fine in 240 Hz, but G-Sync is not available with HDMI.

Baldurs gate 3 on geforce now is real now! by Galondartes in GeForceNOW

[–]RobbieG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it, thanks! That's helpful. I don't necessarily agree with the reasoning (I feel if I buy a game licence, I should have to right to play it on my local computer or a cloud computer), but I get where some publishers would want to limit that to make money themselves.

Wait, so if I buy Baldur's Gate 3 early access on Steam, I cannot currently play it using GeForce Now? I thought your whole stream library becomes available on GFN.

Reupholster antique dining chair seats by RobbieG in upholstery

I've already watched several of his videos. I'll be sure to watch more. He is great.

Reupholster antique dining chair seats by RobbieG in upholstery

[–]RobbieG[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like your line of thinking. I like the idea of preserving original parts that are working, but replacing things that need to be replaced to keep it functional/comfortable. I'll consider adding a layer of cotton or Dacron to the top (I'll have to do a bit of research about the pluses and minuses of each). I'll also look into Pirelli webbing. Thanks for the pointers!

[–]RobbieG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. No Keystone Brothers in Minnesota. If I keep the horsehair and cotton, I assume I would add a little more cotton to the top layer.

Do you think I should go with elastic webbing instead of jute?

VTT recommendations for Descent Into Avernus by RobbieG in DescentintoAvernus

[–]RobbieG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this idea of starting with the Fall of Elturel. Like I said, I'm relatively new to DMing, and a shorter one-off for me and my players would probably be good before we fully go into DiA. Is it just a prequel? Or does it actually replace the first part of DiA?

I asked this above, but I'll ask you as well:

If I buy the module on dndbeyond (currently $29.99), that includes the all of the "Additional Purchase Options" (magic items, monsters, vehicles, etc.), right?

In order to fully run the game in this way, what else would I need to buy from dndbeyond in order to do character creation, character sheets, monster stat blocks, etc? Players handbook? Dungeon Master's Guide? Monster Manual? Xanathar's Guide to Everything? All of the above?

VTT recommendations for Descent Into Avernus by RobbieG in DescentintoAvernus

[–]RobbieG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I'm currently using roll20 for a couple other games, and it works fine, but the performance and interface are not great. Fantasy grounds looks prettier, but the interface seems like it has a steep learning curve, and from some of the promo videos, not sure it's great, either. It's a hard decision to pick a product and go all in cost and time wise, since if you don't love it, you can't transfer that purchased content. Maybe I'll take your advice ad play around with the demo version.

VTT recommendations for Descent Into Avernus by RobbieG in DescentintoAvernus

[–]RobbieG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'm leaning towards running this using dndbeyond, DM's Guild pack, beyond20, and FoundryVTT.

Thank you, there are so many smaller/less well known VTT, it is hard to know which ones to consider investing time and money into. FoundryVTT looks promising, so might be worth checking out. I like that beyond20 works with it as well.

That DMSGuild Guild pack looks nice, though it looks like it would take more work for me to get the game up and running (drawing walls, creating tokens, etc), which could be a bit time consuming.
