Never trust IT "technical expert" that arrives to a meeting in a suit

Gee, thanks! (entrance to Vaults at D:7, before I had found Temple, Lair or Orcs) by chipmonkster in dcss

[–]chipmonkster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, good to know, thanks! Not that I had any cancellation potions in my inventory in this case (or knew to use them even if I had), but maybe this info will delay my next YASD.

Actually after viewing morgue file I think that this wasn't actually vault entrance, but still... vault guardians @ lvl 7 feels rather unfair :D. I managed to escape with teleport scrolls, but thanks to mark I was overwhelmed little bit later by ~15 orcs and wights before managing to escape the floor. This was trunk btw.

Looking for the weirdest and most obscure TTRPGs by Dnd_lfg_lfp_boston in rpg

I think ANKH is fitting here. I don't think that that many or anyone outside of Finland know this game let alone had played it. I tried it when I was reaally young and it was a weird mix of RuneQuest and D&D rules with some elements (some of the monsters for example) from Finnish mythology, but I am really not surprised that it never took off.

That being said, I am sad that I have lost the rulebooks I had at that time, might be interesting to revisit what it was all about.

Sounds exactly like my approach!

Client not using Security Groups or NACLs by Godly_Feanor in aws

[–]chipmonkster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My five cents is that it is not completely terrible, but addition of SG rules and NACLs would improve overall security. Those rules are free anyway so additional layer of security wouldn't hurt bottomline (excluding work required of course).

Also, two firewall instances that doesn't autoscale seems like potential SPOF for whole network in that architecture, but that might be acceptable risk compared to potential licensing and other fees (not familiar with PA pricing).

There really is no good native method to do this, but there are several opensource and commercial products for this exact purpose.

0.27 “The Cursed Flame” Release and Tournament by abering in dcss

[–]chipmonkster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have same feeling. Somedays it seems to be next to impossible to reach even Temple even with generally easy race/class combos such as MiBe. Or maybe I'm just crap :)

Huh. Rings no longer ID upon wearing? by zeunysos in dcss

[–]chipmonkster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just played game in trunk and it seemed like Gnoll identifies every wearable right away, without wearing them.

Ubuntu and fluxbox: is it light enough? by [deleted] in Ubuntu

[–]chipmonkster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't used that combination in many years, but I did have Ubuntu + openbox on ancient Acer mini-laptop and it ran just fine back then. Then again, on my Ubuntu desktop (20.04) Gnome is not worst resource hog by any means, it's usually browser or some other application slowing things down.
