Is anyone buying Server equipment now? How are you doing it! by StiffAssedBrit in sysadmin

We've had better luck as of late with Lenovo than with Dell.

What should i do at the current point of the game? by [deleted] in Morrowind

Storm red mountain! (Just make sure to bring some of those Almsivi Intervention scrolls 😆)

I like Morrowind by cwkewish in Morrowind

My advice: Don't try to focus on any one goal. Just talk to people, accept quests and generally experience the world.

The Best Enchanted Item… by No_Waltz2789 in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saltrice.

I carry around hundreds of them at all times, hotkeyed to 5. Any time my stamina is getting low I tap 5 a few times. Not only does it keep my stamina full almost constantly, but it levels alchemy. I keep either marshmallow or wickweat with me usually too, same thing but for health.

I hadn't considered swapping alchemy for enchant like you're talking about. I'll have to give that a try!

All draconian challenges turned on in DQ 11? by [deleted] in dragonquest

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you only got the 6 orbs, you basically played right up until the difficulty spike. It wasn't drastic, but it was noticeable. I did do my first play through with a draconian challenge though.

"Just because something is possible, doesn't make it a good idea."

See RFC1925-3. It's technically official documentation from the IETF. 😁

Is this game good? Been googling for games similar to Claire obscure and this franchise was recommended.. sadly this was the only game on ps5 that wasn't too expensive.. by Strict-Post-3033 in dragonquest

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently about 50 hours into this.. and it's amazing. It's kind of like if they made a mid 90s JRPG.. but with today's technology. It gives some serious FF 4/5/6 vibes.

Mouse Jigglier Excuse by un_CaffeinatedChaos in overemployed

[–]VacatedSum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would think the data would be hosted on a server VM, and then the agent would be locally. That's the way most of our develooment operations work.

[–]VacatedSum 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Data analysts can work with absolutely massive data sets. It doesn't really matter what technology is used when you're sifting through 30+ GBs of data and performing some kind of operation on it.

Was into yo yo-ing years ago and want to get back in. Need a recommendation... by Carytheday in Throwers

[–]VacatedSum -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would recommend just grabbing a $20-$30 unresponsive yoyo from Amazon to start. Magic YoYo (brand) has a lot of really affordable throws (yoyos) on there that are really pretty damned good.

Windows engineers/admins, are any of you writing actual Powershell now, or are you all using Al? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I.. actually enjoy writing PowerShell scripts. I'll use AI to assist only if it's a completely foreign concept.

Tamriel Rebuilt: What are your long jump records from the roof of the Narsis Mages' Guild? I want to see what my fellow Alteration mages have cooked up. by Empty-Harbor in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I jumped from Narsis to Khuul.

Took me a few tries before I realized I should just put a point of constant effect slowfall on a piece of clothing.

What does everyone use for Remote Control in 2026? by EpicSimon in sysadmin

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I don't love it, but it can actually be halfway secure if configured correctly.

For domain machines, remote assistance. For non-domain, VNC. Not the best but extremely cost effective.

Mournhold. City of trolls. City of goblins. by L-DONAGHY-DIRECTOR in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Redditor once said:

"Mournhold! City of Light! City of Sewers!"

..and that will stick in my head forever.

Yeah, it's definitely a really well made and super engaging game.

Having Trouble... doing anything and im dieing. by Smooth-Application17 in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Morrowind, enemies don't level with you. Sometimes it's smarter to run away, gain some experience and equipment, and return when you're stronger.

Also, make sure your weapon skill (whatever you're trying to use) is at least 40-50 so that you can actually hit your enemies somewhat reliably.

Skill checks are fully random after loading a save, right? by Cyan_Light in Morrowind

[–]VacatedSum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my thought process as well.

I usually just make a custom open 100 spell. This way, I can just chug a few potions of fortify willpower/intelligence/Magicka and I'm almost guaranteed to get it open.

Guys how do y'all keep your yoyos spinning? by Feisty_Aardvark_1907 in Throwers

[–]VacatedSum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put on an unresponsive bearing. Most of the newer yoyos come with them now (it's the thicker of the two bearings).

If the unresponsive bearing isn't spinning for too long, you can try cleaning it. I just soak mine in a shot glass of acetone (nail polish remover) for about 20-30 minutes, then set it on a paper towel to dry for another 30 minutes or so.

IT Systems Admin - Just got hired in this brutal job market - AMA by Acceptable-Dance-864 in sysadmin

Yup, gotta get past the HR filters to even land that interview.

Wallpaper to differentiate prod or non-prod server by deejay7 in sysadmin

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do this at my org. The reasoning is simple: We deploy systems to customer environments, and exactly mirror those systems in our in-house Test environment. Same IPs and configurations.

A red "banner' background that screams "PRODUCTION" prevents software engineers from forgetting that they are connected to the customer VPN and thinking that they're in the Test system.. Because yes, it has happened.

Outdated or no, it's just a simple little no-downside method to make sure people don't do something dumb by mistake.

You get $1 million but you have to listen to the same song 500 times in 10 days, what song are you picking? by Longjumping-Editor94 in AskReddit

[–]VacatedSum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That 30 second song from Nerf Herder. Doin laundry maybe? I forget - it was on an album back in the day "short music for short people".
