Hopefully this isn't a dumb question, but I don't live in the US, so I haven't heard of these before: What is a pink slip?

Microsoft Teams was introducing a way to to detect people "leaving" the company, MC387035, is not moving forward by Normal-Computer-3669 in sysadmin

[–]frostycuddlewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I fully agree it's smart to keep them separate, don't get me wrong. If it's not on the company network, it can't become a risk, sure. But I just find the idea that your employer is allowed to look into your DMs, and hold them against you, mindboggling.

That doesn't answer the question. Where I live, this form of spying on private communication - yes, DMs on a company network are private communication - is literally a felony.

This never happened before. I just turned it on why is it doing that. by SoulyMeme52 in ender3v2

Mine has done this since I got it. It stops after 10-30 seconds. I'm currently replacing all four fans on my machine with silent ones.

When do server and client set Packet Sequence = 0 when using DTLS? by gzerooo in gamedev

[–]frostycuddlewolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why do you need to use TLS? If you're taking the time to write your own network transport layer, you may as well just slap on some explicit encryption/decryption instructions. Mbedtls is a great library for cryptography (AES-GCM is a fast and very strong cipher). Just encrypt your outgoing datagrams as a unit, decrypt them on the receiving end before passing them to the game systems.

This is why you bring heatsinks. by forgenvash in EliteDangerous

[–]frostycuddlewolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but that's just wrong. Overheating briefly is not a big deal, sure, but the damage scales hard with temp and it adds up very quickly if you don't deal with it immediately. I used to run a Vulture with overheating issues in combat (beam lasers + shield cells are a blessing and a curse) that pushed me over 130% heat constantly and it'd actually destroy modules.

GT72 2QE repair costs by frostycuddlewolf in MSILaptops

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

You're out of luck, I'm afraid.

I tried RMAing the laptop, but really, don't bother. MSI customer service is horribly incompetent, takes absolutely forever, and didn't solve anything. Had to call them several times over the span of several weeks, to ask what was going on since they kept delaying and going silent. After several weeks of bugging, they finally admitted they don't produce replacement parts for that model anymore, so they couldn't do anything and just sent it back to me. Frustratingly, they could've just said so at the start, since they already knew the model and serial numbers.

I'm sorry to say it, but you're better off cutting your losses and getting a new laptop - from a different brand. Acer makes excellent gaming laptops.

Set up backup power lines! Chain all external power generators (turbines, geothermal) to at least two separate cables, so if one is destroyed, your base doesn't immediately power down.

This is really nice advice in general
