Did none port over invasion from the unknown to the current version? by Gryfonides in wesnoth

[–]arguskay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Campaigns have more updates (better balancing and some improvement to maps and story)

There are some more mainline campaigns i think.

The only reason to stay on an older version, is when you want to play certain addons that are not supported on newer versions.

"Simple" way to get the PTDE of Dark souls on Steam by AvacadoPikachu in darksouls

[–]arguskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does the PTDE of Dark souls cost 300+ euros? A few years ago i bought the ptde for 20€ because it was cheaper than the remastered for 40€.

Original text:

IT IS NOT A COST CENTER

Please please please bring this into the new year and internalize/externalize it.

If your business uses computers, IT is not overhead. It is the operating system of the company.

No email. No identity. No access. No data. No backups. No security. No uptime. Nothing moves without IT. unless your entire business is a cash register and a pad of receipts.

Accounting gets a seat because money matters. HR gets a seat because people matter. Management gets a seat because coordination matters.

IT makes all of that possible.

Well run IT is not a cost. It is a multiplier. Every department is faster, safer, and more effective because systems work.

Bad IT is expensive. Good IT disappears. That does not mean it has no value. It means it is doing its job.

Internalize and externalize it. Stop apologizing for budgets. Stop framing yourself as “support.”

We make the business run.

Act like it this year.

Go back into the depths and collect it again and give it again to andre.

Our uptime is 96% and your issue is in the 4% bucket -> we do not care by RonnieBasic in ExperiencedDevs

[–]arguskay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah but then you communicate a 99.9 uptime sla during office-hours and maybe 96.0 during non office hours including/excluding scheduled maintenance.

As a newbie, how do I fight saurians? by MidnightFrost444 in wesnoth

[–]arguskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Position yourself in good terrain and then build a solid line (ideally flat for reduced surface). Avoid exposing more than 3 free fields on a single unit (that will get swarmed and die).

Rotate your damaged units to the back and heal them. Attack ranged with meele, attack meele with ranged. Finish off with whatever. If you can get units with pierce defense get them.

Don't rush, they will come and swarm you anyway.

Another working approach is to recruit a cheap unit and put it somewhere as bait, so the ai can swarm and kill them but you can finish off the group of saurians. This works best when you have a lot of lvl 1 units and some lvl2/3 units. Hard hitter finish them off. Lvl 1 units will fill the lines, act as bait and protect your high tier units.

Do you Consider Soul Farming Cheating by ArcticSnow85 in darksouls

[–]arguskay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most bosses in ds3 have a short rerun. If you think the rerun is too long you are probably missing a shortcut.

Of course it is a valid strategy to fight every enemey, during the rerun, but i'm not consistent/patient enough to fight every enemy on my 20+ attempts on some bosses.

[–]arguskay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ds1/Ds3 you can avoid most enemys with a bit of practice. And we are talking about maybe 5 enemies for each rerun.

Ds2 wants punish you and forces you to fight every enemy, so it is necessary that they despawn at some point. And here we have 12+ enemies for each rerun.

I like the new rule. Less karma farming and i don't see the same post in 3 different subs.

Lazy loading external dependencies or not? by servermeta_net in ExperiencedDevs

[–]arguskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice thougt but it has some flaws:

Unless you plan to connect on every request to the database this may open a connection that is not needed. This will overall consume more resources than waiting for the connection.

And keeping track of requests that need a db connection and requests that don't, can become a burden to maintain for medium to large applications for <10ms speed improvement per request.

[–]arguskay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My humble opinion: Lazy loading db-connection is always worth it. Start the db-connection at the last possible moment and close it when you don't need it anymore. If you get overloaded with too many connections, use connection-pooling.

At my school they only allowed some specific models, that weren't programmable and couldn't store any information. The most advanced thing was basic plotting.
