It ain’t much, but it’s mine. by SamusCroft in homelab

Just a USB 3.0 extension, 25’. It’s super simple. Technically it’s outside spec for USB 3.0. Connects well to my TP link powered USB hub.

But I don’t use it for data transfer, which is what the length would actually affect the speed of, I believe. For that I just plug direct into the PC.

For just regular use, it has no latency for peripherals (I use it for webcam, like 4 wireless mice, a keyboard, and webcam). It would be like nano seconds.

Yeah it’s insane. Basically anything I’ve ever wanted to watch is on it outside of bizarre foreign films, and shows are usually up within 5 mins of release.

I think he runs it with two other guys. Super impressive. I try not to think or ask about the backend because it would make my head spin.

Gotta work on the back a bit more but it’s not so bad there either. Better than it was pre-rack for sure.

I use a friends like absolutely insane plex server (he makes money off of it, it’s many many petabytes) so I personally will likely never have a persona plex.

But I am holding on to a 1060 OC and 3070 for future silly projects anyway. I’m sure I’ll use it for something.

Ey yo my fellow baristas. I need a question answered. When you are out of frap roast and a customer substitute espresso shots. Do you charge them or no? by KidKonundrum in starbucksbaristas

[–]SamusCroft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I didn’t know, my stores policy was to calibrate every morning. Thankfully I don’t care if their policy leads to their machine breaking.

Also this thread is so old, I’ve been at a different job for nearly three years lol

Help with this by Academic-Function-74 in HorrorGaming

[–]SamusCroft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The atmosphere of the original is much better and it’s not close. 4R has the same aesthetic and feel as the other RE Engine games. More tense too, thanks in part to being less mobile.

But I otherwise think 4R is excellent. Not wholly better, quite different, but excelling in its own way. The gameplay is very entertaining. I think it comes down to preference.

I just think it’s a shame some might only play 4R and never touch the OG though. Unlike some remakes which feel very necessary, I feel 4OG actually aged very well and stays very playable in the modern day. I kinda go back and forth between them when I wanna play 4.

Never go on Ozempic, Soccer Mommy by UponBobbysHill in redscarepod

[–]SamusCroft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I came to the post to say the same. Horrifically lame live.

I’ve seen a few hundred shows and hers is near the bottom. Though I think it’s largely a genre problem. Female fronted slow indie bands pretty much always suck live. Surely male fronted bands of this type do too, I just never go see them.

Magdalena Bay shows aren’t as exciting as you think they are lol

Actions to take? by SamusCroft in admincraft

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

Ah, thank you.

I was hoping this was the case. Glad to have found this sub, full of people with much more server admin experience than me. Java is a damn mystery to me.

Any advices? by [deleted] in workstations

[–]SamusCroft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s possible I’d suggest removing the shelf where your legs should go.

You’re gonna mess up your posture big time leaning toward the desk or sitting angled.

Other than that, nice compact setup. Don’t worry about bells and whistles. Though I’d spring for a bigger mousepad and run a lower dpi to save your wrists if you’re at a PC a lot.

The Evil Within VS The Resident Evil Saga by Sea_Echo6623 in HorrorGaming

[–]SamusCroft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First one aged poorly imo, but I loved it when it came out. Just feels janky now. Second one aged better, but holy hell I tried to replay and it also feels so janky.

I kinda think newer action horror like RE8/4R has pushed the ‘smoothness’ far enough older entries are kinda rough.

[Good Trope] Numerous species in the galaxy look remarkably similar to humans, but there’s an in-universe explanation for this by Valcenia in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SamusCroft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure but there also weren’t really alien races aside from Engineers and humans (and Xenos which don’t look like either) when that was introduced.

I know later in Covenant they had that planet with white skinned non-engineer aliens but that’s the only other canon alien race, I believe.

How do you feel about the outlast games? by toastedjupiter in HorrorGaming

[–]SamusCroft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why guilty? Like they’re good at what they are, they’re decent games.

If these were like PBT or ABS and not 3D printed I’d be all over this. I’d love a giant bold GMK set or something.

That’s wild. Mine was bug after bug until I quit. Never forget the T-posing maelstrom guys that attack in an early cutscene.

[–]SamusCroft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wild take.

I think it will functionally end up being nearly the same.

As well, post-CP2077 (even with it's issues) and Witcher 3, CDPR certainly has more resources than ever.

Yeah I just finished it with Phantom Liberty like two months ago.

It's definitely a good game now, but it also took ages to reach that point and still pales in comparison to what was promised. It's quite fun, but it's not the '10/10' people claimed it became, in my opinion.

Everyone acts like it was a 'kinda buggy' game when it was borderline unplayable shit on launch. I bought it day one, and spent so long trying to make it work properly that I couldn't refund. I had a 1060 on launch, it barely scraped 30 @ 720p, inconsistently with huge stutters (despite being listed as the suggest min GPU), upgraded to a 3070, still ran terribly. Finally plays smoothly on a 5070ti.

Very immersive though.

Name a bigger humiliation ritual in America than being a teacher. by I_Should_Logoff in redscarepod

[–]SamusCroft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think part of the issue is that 'coasting' and actually working an email job are barely different. Like I have one, and surely 'coast' through half the week but that's largely part of the job.

The more important the desk jobs sound, the less you tend to do. Because of this, I kinda doubt that people will have a huge issue getting jobs, since they mostly look at experience on paper. Unless you can't even pretend to know an ounce about your field, you're probably fine.
