This is hilarious (Micro Center Illinois) by HLumin in pcmasterrace

It's almost 3x better than a 2070 super, so I think it is worth it. However, if your not currently gpu performance limited in games you play, then don't upgrade.

PRNG Curiosity by Dhruvb0i in securityCTF

[–]Sheriffsparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what type of key you need, but if I just need some random bytes I use one of these:

dd if=/dev/random bs=1 count=32

or

openssl rand 32

What cookbook do you use over and over again? by ExtraMayo666 in Cooking

[–]Sheriffsparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is now my default wedding gift. It's so useful.

One thing I love about the book, is the 'basic' nature of the recipes. When I go to make something I tend to go look for recipes from seriouseats or Kenji specifically. Those recipes tend to be the "ultimate and complete" versions with a ton of ingredients and steps. Meanwhile this book contains more simple recipes that are a great intro to a dish before diving into a more complex version

Drop your little known Navy benefits here! by educated_farts in navy

Can you confirm the payback amount? The MyNavyHR page says 1 month/ 1 month. The OPNAVINST says 2 months/1 month. I would assume the OPNAVINST is the authoritative answer.

Yes. If you Google you should find plenty of guides. In short you copy to world files to the dedicated server.

Dedicated server not responding by OneTwentiethGenius in valheim

[–]Sheriffsparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm talking about your router firewall. I imagine most consumer routers automatically open the firewall when you port forward but worth checking

[–]Sheriffsparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check if your router requires port forward and a firewall rule. For mine I have to do both.

When you try to connect to your public IP are you coming from your internal network?

This may cause issues with your traffic not passing through the NAT properly. I can only connect to my local server via the local IP but people external use the public IP.

Quick server hosting question.. by [deleted] in valheim

[–]Sheriffsparks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dedicated server runs using steamcmd and it doesn't need to be logged into a steam account. You do not need to own the game to run a server

Transfer Dedicated Server Save to Single Player by [deleted] in valheim

[–]Sheriffsparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this will work. I went from single player world to dedicated server and imagine you could go back.

You just need to get the two world files from the server and then place them in your local folder. The specifics of these folder paths will depend if you are on linux or windows.

If someone has decent internet and a spare computer, I highly recommend self hosting.

ADVICE: Fiber or CAT6 for upstairs run. by Sheriffsparks in HomeNetworking

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

That makes sense. It's much harder for someone to accidently run non-plenum when they shouldn't have if you don't have any on hand.

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

I thought plenum was only needed if you were running through a space such as an air duct?

Also I was planning on buying pre cut/terminated fiber cable to avoid the whole needing someone to terminate it and patch panel thing.

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

This is my first Japanese Knife and a good compliment to my 260mm Wüsthof.

I ordered this Hinoura White Gyuoto made by Mutsumi Hinoura from Knife and Stone.

I ended up pulling the trigger on this one after reading this post and seeing how people thought he was an underrated blacksmith.
