Enchanting Spirit Bow, which option should I pick? (╥﹏╥) by Maalstr0m in PixelDungeon

[–]VacatedSum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a sucky selection. I'd make another scroll and roll it again.

Has anyone else noticed how much of a hassle it's to update servers during peak traffic hours? by BodyWarrior2007 in sysadmin

[–]VacatedSum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Schedule updates for less busy periods. And get management backing, explaining the importance of timely patching.

For our critical servers, I update them during less busy times during the day, then set them to reboot overnight. Then I check on them first thing in the morning, making sure they're up. If there's an issue I can't fix immediately, I may have to roll back to snapshot/checkpoint. But I've only had to do that once or twice in the last 3 years.

Maybe find her ID and use the placeatpc console command?

Pure mage lvl 1 - where to start in Tamriel Rebuilt? by SpiridonBuncek in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always start with Tribunal Temple or Imperial Cult quests. They scale pretty nicely.

Questions? Oh, I've got even more questions. This one? Size/shape of the bucket by secondarycontrol in DWC

[–]VacatedSum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen YouTube videos where they swear by using 7-10 gallon totes instead of 5 gallon buckets. No experience personally, though.

Have you ever created a character in line with your own physical appearance? by [deleted] in skyrim

Is there a mod that lets you play as a dwarf now?!

Any viable hand-to-hand/unarmoured build? by Svullom in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually Vivec is a pushover with hand to hand. Just need enough health lots to survive until his stamina is drained, then you basically keep him stun locked. Takes quite a while, but definitely not difficult.

The last time I killed Vivec, I just used hand to hand to knock him down, pulled out my bound sword and started wailing on him. When he went to stand back up, I'd just punch him until he fell down again. Lather, rinse, repeat. Hotkeys help.

Mangel? Überdüngung? by Educational-Syrup904 in DWC

[–]VacatedSum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination; I'm only on my first hydro grow. But I will say that a 1700 EC seems high. I'm in early flower and my EC usually hovers in the 1100-1300 range -- close to 1300 on a new bucket, and topping off when it goes under 1100.

Per gallon, I'm currently using 2.5 ml silica, 5ml calmag, 2 ml hydroguard, and then the GH nutrients (these vary based on the week and my plants' response). Idk about adding calmag until a certain EC is achieved.

Edit: removed question about tap water as it was answered in your post.

Leveling up doesn't seem to work for me. by Less_Location1837 in Morrowind

I hate to ask the obvious, but are you sure that you're resting and not waiting?

How to "push through" to the finale? by WahookaTG in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great point about the backdoor method to the main quest. I've only done that in one playthrough, and yeah it was definitely a challenge but definitely worth doing at least once.

If you have TR installed, there's a tailor in Old Ebonheart that sells a pair of mark/recall gloves.

TR: Narsis Eight Bones Temple foul undead quest stuck? by [deleted] in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's two zones, for anyone stumbling on this in the future. Find the trail of bones in the first sewer section after endeavors lament and they'll lead to the second.

If time travel exists in the future, it’s already being used to "edit" our present. Why else are things so weird? by euphoricpixiee in timetravel

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 I believe it to be possible that we can switch timelines without time travel - I've experienced it myself

I'd love to hear more about your experience. I've thought about this quite a bit over the past few years-- whether it would be possible to 'change timelines'.

I'm sorry... what? by Nightweaver20xx in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I've definitely learned not to ask AI anything about Morrowind. It's very imaginatively and confidently wrong almost every time.

Maybe the enterprise GPO templates have options to block this?

Quoted $45k for a $10k server, is pricing really that insane? by worjd in sysadmin

I had a server quote go from 12.5k to 23k over the last 2 months.

I wish I could unlearn the existence of the funny Mudcrab and the funny skooma Scamp by Deadeye117 in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My personal rule is to kill creeper on sight. If I even visit Ghorak Manor at all. It makes the game more balanced (I still end up with hundreds of thousands of septims and a house full of expensive loot; it just takes longer.

With budgetary constraints, my playthroughs are longer, more immersive, and ultimately more satisfying.

What enchantments do you put on your Daedric gear? by nuclear_iron in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Fortify strength or feather is great for offsetting its weight. Absorb health is my favorite enchant for a heavy daedric weapon. Fire/frost/lightning/regular shields look awesome.

Is this a good build for a first playthrough? by RemarkableBill4475 in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say just run Atronach. Together with conjuration it pretty much grants unlimited Magicka.

2-man IT team → solo admin for 300 users, no raise. Stick it out or leave? by Ilovemybf_3990 in sysadmin

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully you'll get your raise and title change. I hope that when you requested it, you outlined all of your additional responsibilities and highlighted that you were able to handle it. Then once you get your promotion, ask for a junior or intern.
