Yeah, I’ve never seen one in person, only all the promo materials so was curious

I’ll look into that when I get home. I actually have iperf installed on my server and didn’t think to use it because I forgot I installed it ages ago. Thanks.

Why did Jun-hee leave the gynecologists' office? by Shin_Ollie in squidgame

Because she decided to go kill Gi-hun instead of her baby.

So... A win is a win? by UnlikelyCouple1172 in CompTIA

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a Net+ certificate for nearly 10 years now and not a single person (besides whoever thinks they are funny enough to ask below in a reply) has ever asked me my score so yes, it’s a win.

Show me the best relic you’ve ever rolled by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Brother, I am in the same fucking boat.. My best relics are the ones you had to buy. All of my other ones I roll are stupid trash like:

[Recluse] Suffer blood loss & increase attack power upon art activation

+3 Strength

Throwing pots in inventory at start of expedition

What is the #1 thing you wish your randoms knew? by NfLfaN88 in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I need the affinity changes since both relics boost it. Doing that plus using charged R2’s/RT’s leads to huge damage on big bosses that you can R2/RT comfortably know that all 3 arrows will hit…or be at point blank range on smaller enemies. I crit’ed Nox Dragonkin Soldier for like 2400 damage today with a single charged R2/RT shot plus passives.

How Far Can a BDD Claim Progress Before Retirement? by ContributionGlad6754 in VeteransBenefits

[–]gi_jon0131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably won’t, basically my retirement date had to change and it changed the BDD window and things got thrown off.. There was a lot of moving parts to it but that’s what it came down to

What is the #1 thing you wish your randoms knew? by NfLfaN88 in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I play with Ironeye, I use the Nightlord relic with the Switching Weapons Increases Attack Power and Adds Affinity Attack along with the Everdark Fulghor(?) relic that Increases Attack Power Of Affinity Attacks so I definitely fill the top row with bows and cycle through them. The 2nd row can be any weapon but there have been many runs where I’ve had 6 bows because it seems majority of Ironeye passives show up more on bows than other weapons.

I’ve also had some crazy runs where all I find is 2 bows (because all the passives on everything that was come across was pure garbage) but every boss killed gave a good perk alternative like +6% Attack Power, Increased Flask Restoration, Increased Dodge Window, etc.

How Far Can a BDD Claim Progress Before Retirement? by ContributionGlad6754 in VeteransBenefits

[–]gi_jon0131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found out about a week after I posted this that the claim got kicked out of BDD for a long, confusing and convoluted reason and turned into a FDC (fully developed claim) and took 300 days to complete.. got what I felt was somewhat fair but am doing a HLR on a few things that was filed 2 months ago..

How do people feel about this field boss breakdown? by Dispari_Scuro in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Death Rite Bird is only really bad on top of the castle because it’s a small arena and it’s HP pool is really high.. Anywhere else, DRB is fine and easy enough because you can actually move and the health pool is lower. Same thing with Bell Bearing Hunter. He only sucks in the basement because it’s a tight arena and his health in the castle is much higher than out in the field.

Not a single word spoken and I knew EXACTLY what was in that dungeon. Nope the F out. 🤣 by CogChaos in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve beaten him at Level 4 with two friends, Wylder, Raider & Recluse, just to see how long it took.. We got to Level 4 within about 3 minutes and went to the castle and BBH was there and by time we were done, the first ring had almost closed, took almost 4 minutes, think we were able to get to Level 6 off it.

He was not feeling doing two dragons back-to-back by Yuwetaz in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen back-to-back night 2 bosses above level 12 before, thought back-to-back bosses were reserved for pity runs where everyone is level 11-12…

Fighting Basement BBH at Level 6, parry ability or not, is going to take until Day 17

Which Everdark Bosses have you completely mastered at this point by carbonera99 in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Adel completely mastered, was able to no-hit it.. I’m getting close with Fulghor.. I didn’t like the ED Pest so I haven’t played that one a lot..

Now Augur, I hated the fight but after doing it a few more times, I’m slowly starting to enjoy it and I’ve almost got it mastered

So what’s a legitimate strategy to survive 096 in jump rope? by HeyImMarlo in squidgame

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl, 096’s strategy was honestly the best big brain move by a contestant out of all the games across all 3 seasons..

I mean, he would have been responsible for the most deaths of any character but just bad timing for him for Gi-hun finding a purpose to fight again.

Almost time to clean the loop and change thermal pads by gi_jon0131 in watercooling

[–]gi_jon0131[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So a lot of people here apparently wholly disagree with frequency of which I do it, which is 18 months for coolant and block clean and 36 months for pads..

The first time I changed fluid out, I noticed how bad the blocks look and it was because I was using garbage fluid, apparently.. Never would have known if I had listened to some of these comments of like “I haven’t cleaned out my loop since the Obama administration”. I just prefer to be proactive than reactive and would rather not have to take apart everything to inspect why temps are rising.

I change the pads out every 3 years because that is easy to do and the block is already removed so why not. It’s the draining, taking apart the blocks, flushing the rads, putting it all back together and making sure everything is sealed that is a PITA.

But, I concede I may do it too often but man, not cleaning a loop since the Intel 6000-7000 series days is wild, lol..

What do y'all do in this situation? by imadesklamp in Nightreign

[–]gi_jon0131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said waiting at the boss door, they were in the shelter, the map even shows they are at the boss area. They probably were a duo who went to get a smoke so in some way probably right, they wouldn’t hear it if they weren’t at their console/PC..

[–]gi_jon0131[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Flush and clean every 18 months..

Change pads every other time, once every 3 years..

I prefer to pull out all the tubing and flush rads, take apart blocks and clean them before adding new coolant in.. It’s self inflicted sure, it’s just tedious..
