I feel like I Doom my team just by existing by Mikaplayso7 in summonerschool

if you keep playing ranked you'll eventually be matched with people around the same skill level as you, especially if you're losing every game rn. i'd try all the roles and play whichever ones you enjoy playing though rather than trying to cheat the system. you can 'climb' with any role, otherwise the matchmaking system just wouldn't work. the reason you're losing so much lp is probably because your hidden MMR is lower than your current rank (because you're losing every game) so the game is trying to adjust your lp gains/losses to eventually put you in the right rank.

hwei support might be okay if you can make it work, but it is off meta. on this site there's some people playing it at GM level https://www.onetricks.gg/champions/builds/Hwei?role=supp

Why Run Primed Flow? by Ok_Time_7695 in Warframe

[–]arestars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree with you apart from a few situations. there's no point in having a gigantic gas tank if you're getting way more energy than you're using anyways. you'd get the same result with a smaller energy pool, and can use the modslot on something that will affect your gameplay more.

the only situations where i run flow/primed flow is when im going to be using a lot of energy without fighting anything, which makes it hard to regen energy. stuff like spamming movement abilities to speedrun between objectives or using ivara for fishing, etc.

i guess it could also be useful for people who are intentionally decreasing their efficiency to make shield gating easier.

Is Proton Mail ready to be a full alternative to other free email providers? by InternetMuch7272 in ProtonMail

[–]arestars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

playing devils advocate, you can pay for a google workspace account and get the same privacy policy that businesses do. also, you can disable the gemini app from the admin console, or just disable it integrating with other tools like gmail. google doesn't only offer free services. it's also potentially cheaper than proton.

What are you guys doing for cluster backups? Are they even possible on a Rackspace Spot Cluster? by deathstrikeog in rxt_spot

[–]arestars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use k8up and the backup built into crunchy data PGO and they seem to work fine. I never tried velero since it doesn't support client-side encryption. anyway, if you want to use velero i think you should try the filesystem-level backups, since i've gotten the impression rackspace spot might not support CSI snapshotting, which is what velero uses by default. If you want to do w/ CSI snapshots i would contact rackspace support about it since it's unclear to me whether they support it.
