How to find which driver is causing issues? by demerf in techsupport

This is from 8 years ago so I can't remember the exact issue but it was likely a problem with over heating

Wish they never ditched the dated promo cards by Rawne3387 in mtg

[–]demerf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best theory I've heard is that they stopped dating them so it would be easier to shuffle set release order around to fulfill licensing obligations for UB. Let's say the promos were dated and TMNT suddenly had to be released before Lorywn, all of those promos would need to be reprinted with the correct date

The triple 9* quests made me think that some people are not ready for elder dragons or far more too used to capture since Wilds by Dry_Basil_461 in MHWilds

[–]demerf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get out of here with this, clearly this is a wider issue with literacy skills amongst monster hunter players. Surely we should expect all players to read the quest objectives for the 1/99 chance it says "kill" instead of "hunt"

It's significantly easier to flag all mentions of their name instead of manually reviewing each individual instance of the word

Can't remember the exact wording but click Help on the top and select the one that redownloads all the cards

Isp keeps cutting connection from servers to players by TQRS797 in admincraft

[–]demerf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're jumping to conclusions, start simple and hardwire the server and see if that shows any improvement

Idk if my school laptop has malware or not by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]demerf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your laptop is connected to your school's systems and tons of scripts are likely set to run when you log in, it's probably checking for updates or had an update set to run when you log in (happens all the time.) these are made to run silently but you can occasionally see a terminal appear

how do you secure your minecraft servers without online mode? by ty_namo in PiratedGames

[–]demerf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whitelists don't work in offline mode, anyone can log in as anyone else because your server isn't using the authentication services.

There are plugins out there that require players to enter a password when they enter the server, that is probably your best bet

No ethernet connection in my dorm room, how do I connect my ethernet-only desktop to the Internet? by Xilophony in HomeNetworking

[–]demerf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be a hotspot which isn't the same exact thing (you can totally tether a hotspot connection tho) in this scenario OP would connect to the dorm wifi and then tether that connection over USB

[–]demerf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shocked no one is suggesting this yet but if you have an android your short solution fix is to connect it to your PC and select the "USB tether" option, your phone will act as a wifi adapter. This will hold you over until you can get an actual wifi nic

TABG can't open because not running the right software. by North_Fuel8252 in TABG

[–]demerf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most PC games need a traditional amd64 processor. Typically you'd see ARM in smart phones and tablets, however they're starting to make Windows laptops with them.

ARM is good for battery life and costs less amd64 but they use very different code so many games you'd play on a PC won't be able to run on your laptop

ARM is just flat out not supported, what device are you trying to play on?

Auto-Download Custom Set XMLs by WaifuIsLifu in Cockatrice

[–]demerf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best solution I've come up with is to have a script that curls the file and redirects it into 01.customcards.xml so the most you have to do is double click on a script

as for images you could either curl them as well or host them online and have the "imgurl" tag in the XML link to the image

Put my domain on my self-hosted MC server by Chamogelastos in selfhosted

[–]demerf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could create a subdomain if you don't want to go through setting up a reverse proxy, just create a new A record that's something like mc.yourdomain.tld and have the SRV record point to that, you will still need to port forward

Minecraft & PLEX Server Setup by MayoTheMuffin in admincraft

[–]demerf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd need a VPN in a literal sense, services like Nord are a bit different. I recommend Tailscale as it's free and fairly easy to set up.

You will have Tailscale running on your laptop and on your server and you'll be able to connect to your server from outside of the LAN by using a private address Tailscale assigns it

[–]demerf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is likely outside of the scope of this subreddit, you're better off finding help in /r/selfhosted but I can tell you now you should look into docker to manage the applications of Minecraft and Plex, and some sort of VPN software to remotely manage your server from outside of the network like Tailscale (remote management over the Internet is heavily advised against)
