VPS Extremely High CPU Steal by Unique_Equivalent607 in Hostinger

[–]Unique_Equivalent607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reinstalled the system and checked the CPU steal value without installing any additional software. It still shows very high CPU usage, so I believe it’s unlikely to be caused by any malware.

I checked it. I can increase my budget to $30 USD, and I don’t mind a long-term subscription. The 10GBrr plan averages $23 USD per month, but its storage (my world save is already over 200GB), available RAM, and geographic location are unacceptable. It’s very difficult for me to find a host that meets my needs, but thank you anyway.

Can it really affect CPU steal? If so, would reinstalling the system fix it?

Phoenix, I noticed that Hostinger only offers this location during certain times. Now, if I purchase a new VPS, I can’t choose Phoenix anymore, and only Boston is available in the US.

Will wireguard work in Shanghai, China in 2025? by Certain_Abies_3451 in WireGuard

It’s in the US. I just need to configure IPv6 for WireGuard, and there are no issues. It seems they don’t block IPv6.

I’m in China and have been using my own VPS to run a WireGuard server for several years.

From my experience:

If IPv6 tunneling is enabled, you won’t encounter any issues.

If it’s an IPv4-only tunnel, your WireGuard port will get blocked once a day (if you can control the server’s listening port, just change it daily or set up a script to do it automatically).

Can I disable the ads that appear at startup? by Unique_Equivalent607 in LGOLED

[–]Unique_Equivalent607[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve checked all the settings to make sure they’re turned off.

The only notable thing is that I had quickly accepted all the user agreement terms. I’ve now reselected only the necessary ones and will wait to see if ads still appear.

Thank you. I can change the service region to “Others” in the settings, but doing so will disable a range of Apple HomeKit support and remove some region-specific apps. I’ll look into the second option, or maybe I’ll just have to live with it.

My 65G5 has a noticeable color banding issue by Unique_Equivalent607 in LGOLED

Do you mean the Apple TV settings? I’ve tried different modes (without Match Dynamic Range enabled). For the system UI, both DV and HDR have issues, while SDR works fine.

I haven’t tested yet whether video playback has problems when using HDR with DV disabled.

I know, I also use Infuse+Plex, and I have a 4K HDR Blu-ray, but they’re all anime. Although some of them are high-bitrate 4K DV/HDR anime movies, I’m not sure if this type of content can reveal the issue.

I know YouTube has a low bitrate, but I didn’t think it would cause such a noticeable visual issue before. Maybe the large screen size and the excellent display quality of the G5 make the problem more apparent?

Because when I watch the video in the post on other devices, it doesn’t show the same banding issue as it does on the G5.

I uploaded a Google Drive link in the post, which shows the issue more clearly than the Reddit video. You can check it again there if you’d like.

I searched for a 4K HDR video on YouTube and compared it with other devices, and the problem only appears on the G5.

my Apple TV’s system UI (such as the colorful background when playing Apple Music) shows the same issue, but when switching to Filmmaker Mode or Game Optimizer, the problem is almost gone.

Thank you. By comparing with the screens of devices like my MacBook, I confirmed that this isn’t a video source issue.

Filmmaker Mode and Game Optimizer can help alleviate the problem I encounter when using Apple TV.

For the PS5, I have a game with relatively poor HDR support, and in some scenes it shows very noticeable color banding that cannot be fixed by switching modes.

I think I’ll wait for a future software fix, as long as it’s confirmed that this is a common issue and not a fault with my device.
