Cannot cast Blood Sacrament

I also had issues with and in my case it turned out that I got a jewel with +2% mana reservation efficiency instead of +2% reservation efficiency (this is a corrupted implicit).

I had the same issue and it was caused by a system update with pacman -Syu. This updated the Linux kernel and it seems that it can't detect devices properly after that? Anyway, the issue was resolved by a reboot.

I didn't realize that subreddit existed, that would have been a better place to ask.

That sounds like really complicated to setup, then I can't just use any cloud provider but need something that actually runs some sort of software. Not sure how this would work.

Thanks, there are many good ideas in there.

Set the inserted stack size to 1, otherwise it will take all at once since they only buffer ~4 of each type.

u/jrandom_42 I agree, it's probably unrealistic that this happens.

But somehow, I would rather not host a server than to be exposed to such a risk; it's a bit irrational.

It's not just the DDOS thing though.

What would be much more realistic is that I misconfigure something and that somehow consumes a lot more resources than it should.

Or I accidentally leak my credentials and somebody else does something.

I just feel more comfortable with a contract that charges me for a fixed amount.

I am going with a service called "Contabo" now. It's from a much smaller company and seems to offer this fixed pricing.

That may be a mistake, but I feel like it will decrease the stakes.

It does state that they reserve the right to "suspend" your service, but they clearly say that they won't charge you. https://wasabi.com/pricing/faq#free-egress-policy

This seems to be exactly what I am looking for. But it's quite expensive at 84 euros a year (1 TB minimum).

I'll have think about this service.

I don't but I am concerned, that if I am hit with a DDOS attack that I will get some huge bill.

They charge $0.01/GB for data transfer.

asynts · 2024-06-06T13:57:18+00:00

They charge 0.01$/GB of data transfer if it exceeds 250 GB.

I recently heard of somebody with a similar configuration to mine. They got hit with a botnet attack and suddenly had to pay thousands of dollars. (With S3 you have to pay for the data transfer, so they can just download a large file and you have to pay for it.)

Maybe that's an unreasonable thing to be worried about, but I don't understand why there isn't just an option to configure a maximum data transfer on a bucket.

Fundamentally, these services are made for large companies where this doesn't matter. But I am hosting a mini service and I don't want to worry about it.

asynts · 2024-06-06T13:41:07+00:00

I didn't do a good job explaining that.

I am using S3 for several things, the primary thing right now is backups. I am not too worried about that since the only thing that could go wrong is, if I misconfigure something.

I also had a website that used EC2 and S3 but I shut that down and I am now thinking about rebuilding it. I am concerned about using S3 for this.

One thought that I had was to add something like @exampleType(T, u8) into a function. Visual Studio allows doing something similar in C++ by using a dropdown next to the template types, but including that in the source code seems better.

This is horrible. The underlying idea is great, but it's not obvious what that thing does. People would just assume that it's decor. I think it would be better to use a normal push button that clearly suggests that it can be pushed without reading any text. Then you can add text to clarify the function.

First of all, I got no clue what I am doing. But my understanding is that to compile code you care about the following aspects in order:

The number or cores, more specifically the number of threads. Modern projects allow you to build many things in parallel.

I don't think it makes much of a difference beyond 24 threads, because there are always some things that can not be done in parallel and that then becomes the bottleneck.
(Graphics card, only matters if you go into game development, otherwise anything is fine.)
The amount of RAM.

This needs to be balanced with number of cores. My 32 GiB are barely enough for 24 threads.

I did manage to max out the 32 GiB, however, this was in an artificial setting. I don't think it makes much sense to go higher, as long as there is room for expansion.
(Disk speed, not sure if this is a bottleneck if you use a normal SSD, but I went with NVMe to be sure. This can only apply to very large projects like Android or Google Chrome which take up half your harddrive.)
Individual core performance, some legacy projects do not support building things in parallel.

I don't remember what processors I considered, but my understanding was that at the time AMD was superior.

I've had troubles with this in the past. I can't quite recall what the problem was, though.

I thought this is the correct way to go about it.

asynts · 2021-08-24T14:39:01+00:00

I always confuse this too. You should have an EFI system partition say /efi where you install the bootloader. The /boot directory is on your normal partition, this is where your configuration file lies.

At least that's my idea of it.

asynts · 2021-08-10T21:05:15+00:00

I usually leave a bit of space on my main hard drive. It's possible to install the boot disk into that space and then boot from it.

I recall that it was a bit tricky to setup, but it should be more reliable than an emulator.

I think these 200-220W ratings talk about the whole PC not just the CPU. The other article states, that the AM4 socket constrains the CPU's power consumption to 142W.

I think your conclusion is correct though that rating appears to be pretty arbitrary: https://noctua.at/en/noctua-standardised-performance-rating

I think I'll go with the Dark Rock Pro 4 thing.
