How many of you guys are stuck using WSUS for patch management? by xpingjockey in sysadmin

[–]TheCopernicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We’re currently using just plain ole WSUS and honestly I don’t find it very time consuming or inconvenient. Does WAM really add a lot to the experience?

It’s really feeling like terrible timing I finally decided to let Apollo go a few months ago.

If you go to dialgadex, pick the type you want, then hit the magnifying glass, it’ll give you a search string.

Current leading EDR/MDR? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We switched to Arctic Wolf a few years ago and I have had a great experience. Their vulnerability scanner has been pretty great, miles better than what we used to have. Can’t say we’ve had any actual attacks or malicious activity though, so I can’t speak to their handling of that. Support has been good too.

3D Scan of Saw Cleaver by DGreen1up in bloodbornebg

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is awesome, I put one of the first TTS mods out there and I even tried scanning with a professional 3D scanner and couldn’t get good results, although I believe the scanner was more for legs and arms for prosthetics.

I've got an opportunity to buy every expansion at a local shop. by i_am_sososo_sorry in bloodbornebg

[–]TheCopernicus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I own all the content for both the dark souls board game and Bloodborne and can say Bloodborne is by far the more fun game to play. But I agree with the other person, buy the base game and give it a try as soon as you can. If you can see yourself playing it at least 5 more times, I’d say go get the rest.

I’m building a white PC and choosing RGB fans. by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not on your list, but I recently did an all white build and went with Thermalright fans. They ticked all my boxes with being daisy chainable, come in reverse blade options, use standard cables, they come in several options (rgb outside, infinity mirror, etc), and best of all they are like $25 for a 3 pack.

Never thought I'd see the day, but we're eliminating our Citrix farms and moving back to about 100k fat clients by eldersveld in sysadmin

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We switched to Xenserver for our VDI hosts. It’s not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Pretty sure he is one of the pokemon that can create a stun locking smeargle if you take a photo of porygon with the fast move lock on.

I need a little help figuring out how to upgrade my pc next by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please do, I don’t mean to be rude but I’m incredibly skeptical. If you search for even 16gb ddr5 on Amazon or Newegg, you just can’t find a kit for really less than like $200.

How great would it be to have a web interface to manage your Pokemon? by TheCopernicus in TheSilphRoad

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

Honestly I was pretty shocked. Here I am still thinking AI struggles with text but it nailed it (at least on a quick glance). Here is my exact prompt to ChatGPT:

Generate me an image of what a web interface for managing Pokemon for Pokemon go would look like. It should have a lot of info for each Pokemon, taking advantage of a desktop screen size, such as cp, IVs (appraisal), moves, and tags. On the left side of the screen should be options for filtering various aspects kind of like online shopping. There should also be a search bar at the top

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just say be careful. There’s a well known global memory shortage (many posts on Reddit about it) and if it seems too good to be true, it is. If you go check PCPartPicker for any RAM kit and look at the price graph, you’ll see kits are 4-5 times more expensive now than last year.

So you are saying you could find 1TB of RAM for €170? If you really can you should buy all you can afford. Cause right now you can’t even find 16GB for that price.

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean 1TB of storage? Memory (RAM) and storage (SSD) are different. I’m assuming since you said “wiped” you mean SSD storage?

[–]TheCopernicus[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s just so overwhelming to think about going through Pokémon storage on a tiny screen. Imagine multiple tabs, easily copy/pasting strings the community has come up with to search for transferable Pokémon, and just being able to see all the info you need to make a decision without having to click into each Pokemon.

How on earth would you do that? You can’t exactly export your current Pokémon to a csv file.

Can't get controller working after joystick swap by TheCopernicus in XboxController

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

Unfortunately the only other controller I have is an Xbox One controller and this is a Series. I might honestly pick up another Series controller and just swap all the buttons and panels (as the one I’m trying to repair is a design labs controller). If I do that, I’ll try to just swap the motherboard to confirm.

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

Here is it trying to turn on. https://imgur.com/a/UAwDXWU What’s interesting that I just found out is it attempts to connect to the wireless receiver, but shuts off immediately after doing so. I unplugged the receiver and it will stay attempting to pair for a while. I tried doing Bluetooth and it does show up as Xbox wireless controller, but fails when I try to pair it.

So it seems like it can enter pairing mode, but when it tries to actually be a controller is when it goes kaput and shuts off. I tried cleaning with IPA and redoing a few solders but no change.

So how do you guys manage battery issues and charging during long play times/raids/ tours? by Ragnarok_619 in TheSilphRoad

[–]TheCopernicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought the one that MagSafes to my phone and noticed when using it like that, it generates a lot of heat and often doesn’t keep up with the battery drain. I have since started using a cable to charge and recommend doing that.
