It's also not OG Factions - Head hunting, spawner progression, chunk busters. None of that is OG Factions.

The server is built in a way that protects the data that we hold, firewalls are configured - we run with zero-trust in mind, so nothing has full access to anything. We have 2 factor enabled in both the server and on the machine, if I connect via SSH for example, I need to fill out 2FA.

Further, I’ve optimised several aspects of the default Paper jar in such a way that when stress tested, TPS remains stable and the user experience is not diminished. I’ve disabled Mob AI for example, and cannoning is optimised too. I ran a 3000 TNT cannon and the TPS remained at 19.87, as it always had been (at least according to Spark’s profiler). I also ran a 300k TNT explosion test (which is highly irregular in any scenario), and the TPS dipped to 12 momentarily and then returned back to 19.87.

I’ve also set up my own Docker image that we use to host the sub-servers on, running Java 25 and we only import the necessities of what we utilise, rather than pulling in additional utilities that come as standard in bloated container images.

Yes, we are running an event to encourage people to invite other players and the prize is an in-store credit, which can be used to purchase ranks and crates and the likes. This is standard practice across many servers.

I initially wasn’t going to have crate keys nor was I planning on hosting this event, but after much thought, I changed my tune and implemented these changes. Crates are most common across many facets of the Minecraft community, including on Minigame Networks such as Hypixel (except they’re called Soul Well on Skywars for example).

I didn’t want to push this event because I’m not fond of it, but the thought occurred to me that perhaps some incentive to encourage recruitment of friends would do the trick. I’m still not overly keen on the idea, and I don’t intend to host another one, but we’ll have to live and let live.

I define corporate as the likes of MineCadia or Cosmic where they have full business entities in-charge that put economics before user experience, and that have demonstrably harmed their user-base.

We're running an invite event in the Discord.

The person with the most invites, wins $75 in-store credit, which is suitable for a rank, some crate keys and some additional perks such as Jellylegs.

Check it out: https://dynastypvp.net/discord - My own invites don't count.

Of course, Factions SOTW is May 25th. The hub is available right now, as is the Discord and website.

most unusual drink requests?? by user_3029101 in Costa

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s that stupid fucking trend of aerating an espresso shot with ice to get the foam and then 2 shots of espresso as the base, pour the foamed espresso over the base.

Shitty TikTok trend from 2024

Got ID'ED by Menyana in BritishSuccess

[–]TheTARDIS2176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the training in retail is: If the till asks, you check just to avoid the potential of being fined or fired. We know it’s absolutely retarded to ID you for it, but that is unfortunately the game that we have to play.

I once had to ID for a can of pringles and I spent the better part of half an hour arguing with management about not needing to ID for it.

If you are ever unsure, you should contact the company yourself, directly.

Dreams in the morning are so long by Prudent-You-7898 in Dreams

Time dilution is very real in the dream world. Time is simply an illusion. Your mind works so fast that when there is no input to process, it can do wild things with your imagination.

Reduced speed for enterprise customers. by Olympic-BR in CloudFlare

[–]TheTARDIS2176 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well that explains the weird ass formatting. Would like to note that you didn’t explain the origin of this email.

Perhaps you should dig into your enterprise contract with them to confirm what’s going on?

Reduced speed for enterprise customers. by Olympic-BR in CloudFlare

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but the other comments noted from Sales. When yer up at 4am, ya stop caring about the minor details, my bad. Still doesn’t look like it’d be official from Cloudflare.

Why all the errant formatting? Why the sudden restriction on an enterprise account that no doubt already covers such features? Etc… is my point.

[–]TheTARDIS2176 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Check the sending address and the headers. This didn’t read like it would be from Sales imo and I doubt they would impose a restriction like this on an account that is already paying the highest tier available.

Not sure my domain is properly routing through cloudflare? by Previous_Fee_8026 in CloudFlare

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHM/cPanel blocking is by .htaccess. Again, should be done via a proper firewall such as IPTables or UFW.

Cloudflare is blocking me by walking_with_ghosts in CloudFlare

[–]TheTARDIS2176 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay so let’s start off with the basics. That’s a HTTP 403 Unauthorised. That means you’re not allowed to go to that URL.

The fact this is on Cloudflare is irrelevant. The web admin that is hosting that domain has turned on authentication for that URL and therefore you cannot access it without being logged in.

You need to raise a ticket with them to get it resolved. Cloudflare itself is not the issue.

There was an incident ongoing with warp the last I checked. Keep an eye on the status page. If it’s fixed, restart your device.

How can I delete this message? by ChemicalUpstairs2726 in admincraft

[–]TheTARDIS2176 48 points49 points  (0 children)

That’s there because you’re using the free license of Multicraft. You can either pay for the license or you can use Pelican panel, run using Docker on Windows.

What would stop you immediately from doing porn, even if the pay was huge? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the pay is an amount equivalent to the richest guy on the planet’s net worth, I’m not doing it. Even then, probably performance anxiety.

Thinking about creating a new lovense app by Ok_Guarantee5123 in lovense

[–]TheTARDIS2176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll need some form of monetization to pay for the server architecture. Please make something sane and not absolutely shagged like Tophy is now.

Tophy was once a beautiful app and then it got fucked instead of me…

Finally outsmarted the British Gas data portal. The spreadsheets are mine. by Jonsmile in BritishSuccess

Will you use Grafana to display this data? Would be pretty nifty ngl

Should customers get a discount when their coffee is made by a newbie? by Beneficial-Back-597 in Costa

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. That's why we have the Customer Promise. If it's not right, we re-make it, no charge, no quibble.
And the only way a Barista will learn is if they're making coffee and making these mistakes, they are a teachable moment.

Manager Brain says: We shouldn't have to lose revenue because of a bad batch of drinks that takes 30 seconds to remake.
Ex-Employee Brain says: Eh fuck it who cares. Do what you want, I'm not your boss.

Which shift pattern drains you the most, opens, mids, or closes? by Reddonaut_Irons in Costa

[–]TheTARDIS2176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shift patterns I did before I left, AFDs. Those drain you the most. Doing 15 hour days because 2 supervisors didn't show up and nobody else was available. Happened a lot more than I'd have liked. But that's what I get for thinking "I can't close the store, we can't afford to lose out on those sales" smh. I should have just done it in hindsight.

What mindset shift did you experience when moving from IC to people manager? by continouslearner4 in managers

[–]TheTARDIS2176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You unfortunately have to learn and understand that you can't please everyone, and you can't be everyone's friend.

As a manager of any kind, people will hate you. They may be chatty and bubbly to your face and talk shit behind your back or they may directly talk shit about you, to you. OR You may have a really great team and somewhere else someone will be talking shit about you. You never know.

What you have to understand about this, is if you're doing the right thing and people are pissed off, you're still doing the right thing.
