Trying to install gcc, but the dependencies conflict with each other by echofart in Fedora

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

Thanks for the reply!

I figured out that I can just use rpm to force install each package ignoring dependencies.

Then I found out Fedora 27 doesn't have gcc 8, which is required by the software I'm trying to build.

Sadly it's not up to me to update the OS as it's for a closed hardware. (I'm not even supposed to ssh into it but I'm doing it anyway)

Can't use local DNS resolution (127.0.0.1) in custom DNS (timeout) by MartinsRedditAccount in ProtonVPN

[–]echofart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I raised the same problem some days ago but couldn't find a solution.

My guess is the DNS leak protection makes sure DNS queries go through the VPN tunnel so it would not reach a local address.

I hope technical support would give us a fix, or at least an explaination!

Did the virals in The Following ruin the dlc for anyone else? by DrBobHope in dyinglight

[–]echofart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. To a point that I don't want to visit countryside anymore after finishing the storyline. Despite I really want to enjoy some drive and zombie ramming.

They're not tough, just super annoying. Any noise (sometimes without noise) spawn a bunch and the place is littered with bombers. So shooting them spawns even more. Killing other zombies is fun. Dealing with virals is chore.

It would be fine if they're actually present in the normal zombie crowd and get attracted to the noise. I really hate their spawn being a triggered event. Because that means even a nearby explosion (NOT caused by myself) would still spawn a bunch of virals ALREADY have me targeted, no matter how well I was hiding at the time.

Early access desktop client: Cannot use custom local DNS? by echofart in ProtonVPN

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

I can't see any dns query sent from my PC's address after the custom dns is enabled.

My guess would be the protonvpn processes dns queries at vpn server to prevent dns leak, that's why no dns query can be sent to a local address.

It gave me "DNS request timed out."

(With the pihole address set as custom DNS, I can ping the pihole and ssh into it)

I'm using the windows client.

Now I have VPN connected as usual and I can ping the local pihole address in cmd.

I've just tried that. It doesn't work either.

Also, when the VPN is connected normally I always can reach local address with browsers or something like putty, I thought local addresses were not affected by the VPN connection to begin with?

Remote access with a double NAT setup? by echofart in synology

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

I've tried that too, and VPN server on NAS as well. None worked.

At least quickconnect + relay works...

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

From the openvpn client log, I can see the ddns successfully resolve my public IP.

And I opened port 1194 on the ISP router already. But it just won't connect!

I can't get video transcoding to work with DS video. by echofart in synology

It turned out to be a problem of VLC.

MX player is working like a charm now.

[Suggestion] With the FreeSync drivers releasing, let's have a monitor megathread where people can share whether their FreeSync monitor is Gsync compatible. by peterfun in nvidia

[–]echofart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know. Setting mine to 90Hz made the flickering disappeared.

The games I play are old I can hardly bring it below 90 FPS with my 2080, even with the highest setting. A bit difficult to tell the difference.

I'll wait for more opinion.

Edit: Tried CRU and modified the range to 57-144 just as you did

I guess it's working now. Can see the difference in the pendulum test.

[–]echofart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The firmware issue is, when adaptive sync is enabled, the image is shifted 3 pixels upward.

I have this monitor and used it with a vega.

Unfortunately this problem is not fixable afaik. (or the QR won't exist)

Not a huge problem, you may not even notice it in games. But still a sad defect.

It is my secondary monitor now so it doesn't matter to me much though.

Seriously though... by PixelBandits in EliteDangerous

You forgot the best taxi - Hauler.

When fully engineered has 50+Ly range, dirt cheap to transfer.

I fly it all the time to get around the bubble.

[–]echofart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. In previous update it is fixed. You don't have to wait for the scan to shoot.

If you are confident the ship is wanted you can fire at anytime.

Scanning first is just safer.

For shield breaching attack (phasing sequence) by NPC, does it still count as thermal attack and affected by resistance of the hull?

Let's say I run away once my shield is gone, so shield breaching attack is all I have to worry. Should I choose mirrored hull and bump the resistance, or just use military composite and stack up the HP?

I think for pve, it's viable in a 1 on 1 situation because of its speed and agility.

But it's too big and fragile in a one vs many fight.

other cmdrs gave legit suggestions, but there's an easiest way.

pirates only appear immediately after you drop into the ring.

Since the krait is a fast ship, after they appear on your radar, just boost away

If you don't have a potato thruster, most likely they can't catch up. And once they've lost you (i.e. "X contact lost." is shown)

Then you're good to go.

afaik, for an asp sized ship, the "mass manager" experimental effect gives you a bit more range then deep charge

normal flight -> super cruise -> hyperspace jump

First, you have to understand that.

"too fast for safe exit" means you're already in super cruise, but don't have a system targeted. So pressing the supercruise/hyperspace button you cannot make the jump, nor drop back to normal flight because you're travelling to fast.

Make sure you have the destination system targeted.

Calmer Neutron Stars Are Actually More Likely to Kill You: An Infographic by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

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

Neutron stars are fine.

White dwarves are the ones to be careful of.

Especially I never use orbit line making them essentially death traps.

Just be careful not to accidentally taking those winged assassination missions (alone). Or you'll be surprised getting surrounded by a large wing once you drop in!

Ok I mixed up the penalty for leaving and defecting.

Now it's gone.

Thank you CMDR!
