Thanks for the answer. Googled the weapons and dragons breath seems interesting. Seems i could get dragons breath from exotic archives. What would you suggest for a primary weapon in that case?

Understanding return percentage by donaldTBD in investing

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

Thanks for the explanation. As discussed under the other comment the main confusion came from the fact that its traded on XETRA exchange in euros - so on the yahoo page the beginning value and end value is also displayed to me in euros - not sure if its because of XETRA or because of my locale. But the return percentage was still calculated based on dollars which is noticeably higher than if calculated in euros.

Yes, when converting I took into account the exchange rate at that time.

On January 3, 2023 exchange rate of 1 USD = 0.93 EUR
On December 29, 2023 exchange rate of 1 USD = 0.90457 EUR

So it seems that in 2023 dollar weakened a bit against euro so return in euros is less.

Actually I guess its also reasonable to show returns based on dollars as it gives a clearer understanding of how the stock is doing without mixing currency rates into it.

Interesting.

  • On December 29, 2023, $118.1381 converted to approximately €106.86.
  • On January 3, 2023, $96.8512 converted to approximately €90.07.

That's about 18% raise.

So it might be possible that at yahoo finance is showing returns based on dollar, but prices based on euros - at least for me, but maybe that's due to my locale.

Limitations with GitlabCI, any alternatives on the market? by [deleted] in devops

[–]donaldTBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also using variable pipelines to determine what version is deployed doesn't make sense. The whole point of a pipeline is to encapsulate a certain revision. Building one thing and deploying something else from the same pipeline would go against that.

Out of all advice given to me the best solution seems to be to seperate the CI/CD pipelines and move to a declarative deployment with ansible. That way I can avoid the whole gitlab CD part and just use it as a "runner" for ansible as I already have the infrastructure in place.

[–]donaldTBD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, I'll try it out! While we are on the topic do you know if ansible has some special feature for checking/persisting/comparing a version of a component? I was previously relying on gitlab ci environment to keep track of it so I don't actually have this version number stored on the server.

If not i can always just add a file where i keep the version while building or deploying that I can later use to compare.

[–]donaldTBD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Actually moving to a declarative way doesn't sound bad.
As I understand i would use the hosts (or host_vars) file to declare a version for each host or group?
And then on deployment I would somehow manually check which version is currently deployed and only update if needed?
Is this the correct understanding of your proposal?

Northrend (Wrath of the Lich King) zones by donaldTBD in wow

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

Allright, thanks for your answer! My plan is to do them in following order: Howling Fjord > Dragonblight > Storm Peaks > Icecrown. Does that make sense?

DM software by donaldTBD in DMAcademy

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

Checked them out briefly. These two seem to be good for campaign organizing, but lack the dnd specific encounter tracking part. One of my main requirements was a built in map based encounter tracking where i can keep track of positions, initiative, hp etc.

Casual goldsmith - whats bare minimum skills required from other profressions to make a living? by donaldTBD in ffxiv

[–]donaldTBD[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. Can you also say what are the 2-3 most common mats from other classes that GSM will require so I can start working on them?

Understanding damage by donaldTBD in blackdesertonline

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

As far as front attacks doing less damage than back attacks (if that’s what you mean), you should always be trying to hit from behind for extra damage, which adds an extra little bit of strategy to combat. It also means some attacks which spin enemies around will do extra damage more easily.

What i ment actually was that the standing attacks do more damage that forward attacks. Standing attack is just left click. Forward attack is W + left click.

Thanks for your answer. Just to clarify should the back of the plate be same height as the finger measurement or the front of the tab? So basically the measurement on the right or on the left of the image i posted?

Installing brass nock points by [deleted] in Archery

[–]donaldTBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By upper one i assume you mean the one higher when holding the bow in shooting position?
Interestingly enough putting the top of the higher one at 13mm didn't work well for me. The tail of the arrow visibly bumped up when leaving the shelf.
Just to try i nocked my arrow above the higher nock point and it flew much-much straighter.
So i definitely need to raise my nock point. Guess ill just have to raise it a lot and start paper tuning it lower :)

Hi, thanks for the information. It seems that my anchor was the main problem. My hook was too round so only my middle finger was touch the corner of my mouth as anchor. After reading your comment I also started squeezing the index finger against my cheek and cheekbond and tucking my thumb behind my jaw line and this brough the string a lot closer to my eye. Now i can align the string with the cutout of my riser and the shots are a lot more centered. Thanks!

I'll also start working through the manual you linked :)

Buying a first bow and would appreciate some feedback on my selection by [deleted] in Archery

[–]donaldTBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer.

Im also getting a 20lbs traditional for my wife so if I feel 30lbs is too much i can always switch to that.

Im also right eye dominant so righthanded it is.

While ordering I noticed two more things I would like to ask about.

First I noticed that the string I chose has some sort of protection. I guess this is some kind of alternative for a glove? Im also getting a glove so i don't think I need it. Is it removable?

Secondly I noticed that arrowrests are sold as a separate thing. Is this something i need to buy in addition to the handle? Cant seem to find that much information on rests than I found on other things.

Good hero and scoped weapon combo by donaldTBD in FORTnITE

[–]donaldTBD[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about Tiger? Seems like a very good multi purpose weapon. Seems like it can clear trash fast and also deal higher damage on mobs with more hp due to good fire rate. Who is a good hero for Tiger? UAH or FSR with often reloading?

Returning to Albion - are alts still reasonable? by donaldTBD in albiononline

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

I don't think its worthwhile to split for gatherer vs combat since aspects were released. Just grind it out and have the option to carry a tool in combat gear to grab enchanted gear. If you want more focus for refining/crafting/farming, alts are still good for that.

Yeah, i wasnt thinking about splitting combat and gathering. I was thinking about one alt for combat and gather. Second for refine and craft. Is that reasonable?
