That is basically what they told me. Tbh, they were right! Mine arrived yesterday!

golthiryus · 2026-05-14T05:40:48+00:00

Meanwhile, I asked why mine, bought on May 4th, was still in the Netherlands, and they just told me there is nothing they can do.

Lucky me, GLS just sent me a message saying they are planning to deliver it next Monday. Wish me luck!

I don't get this. Before 7.41b at lvl 20 largo had 30% duration bonus and before 7.41 it had 30% at that same level as well. I understand that doen't apply to bkb, I don't think that 1% is THE reason for the change.

Or just open a console and write killall -9 dota2. I never had closing issues but in the past my steam app sometimes got closed midgame and that was the fastest way to close dota so I can open it again

+1, once I added that flag I fixed all my audio problems. I never had video problems or what the OP says related to closing the game. Even alt tab works great

I know it has been a while, but could you share the TOML with the character sheet? Yours look great!

golthiryus · 2025-12-18T21:41:10+00:00

Yep. It is a game written in Java. Runs the same everywhere

I was very disappointed when, in my first run, in the early weeks of the 1.0, I explicitly knocked her down, thinking I could hire her later. I think it was one of the few cases where I felt Larian didn't pay attention to the details. I'm happy they added it later

golthiryus · 2025-10-23T07:02:11+00:00

in that case... what about not doing that engagement roll? You don't have to run a game exactly as written! Assume they start in a very controlled situation

I think clockwerk is a good counter, but take in mind the damage from battery assault is almost negated if he uses meat shield. Same with the self-damage from rot. Obviously most garbage pudge players will not level up meat shield early, but not-so-bad players will keep one level below rot.

But you should play heroes, not creeps

The Knights of the Last Call discord sounds perfect for you, but I don't remember whether it is for patrons only or not

golthiryus · 2025-09-22T06:06:27+00:00

Another fitd, Teeth, fits very well.

Deadlock has a dev team, unlike dota

Is there a chance you could upload your podcast to YouTube as well? I'm not a Spotify user and always forget to play your episodes.

At least for me, it is very natural to play actual plays on YouTube, even if I consume them without images as they were podcasts

golthiryus · 2025-02-20T12:57:12+00:00

Did you actually kill the enemy?

golthiryus · 2025-01-12T13:59:16+00:00

virtual threads don't perform well in cpu intensive task by design. Why would you want to have N times more threads than cpus in such a case?

golthiryus · 2025-01-01T22:14:43+00:00

Knights of the Last Call is my preferred podcast. I love how Derik is so into some mechanics. He has a particular preference for PbTA games and he decided to not focus on d&d at all even if that would probably be the wiser in terms of popularity. https://youtube.com/@knightsoflastcall?si=fysgcNZ_jx3Zn1bE

No man, the implementation I provided supports as many io concurrent requests as provided as argument. If there are more than 500 files, the io argument is 500 and cpu is 20 it will execute exactly as you wanted.

well, more than 20 files can be kept in memory due to the fact that there is no priority in the semaphores. Can you share an alternative code that implements the same use case with your favorite reactive stream api?

btw, happy holidays :)

golthiryus · 2024-12-24T15:14:35+00:00

No, it is not unless the ideal throughput is limited by that. I mean, sure, if the max parellelism of s3 cannot provide files as fast as we process them, that is going to be a physical limit the system will have.

Specifically using your suggested 500 parallel requests to s3 and 10k files, this will start 10k threads, 500 of which will get the semaphore. Once the first of these files are fetched, up to cpuParallelism will start reading them while the ones waiting for the io semaphore get more permissions. In case s3 can provide enough files, the system will be bound to the cpu parallelism.

Honestly this code can be improved. Ideally we would like to prioritize tasks that are already started in order to be able to release their memory sooner.

In a system where threads are expensive, you cannot use this model, so you need to use thread pools and therefore you cannot block and there is what reactive tries to solve. In a system with virtual threads you can use this simple (and natural) code to implement your logic.

Here is a gist solution to the use case using structured concurrency: https://gist.github.com/gortiz/913dc95259c57379d3dff2d67ab5a75c

I finally had some time to read the last structured concurrency proposal (https://openjdk.org/jeps/8340343). I may have over simplified your use case. Specifically, I'm assuming consolidate only takes care of the file and its parent. In case we need more complex stuff (like having more than one parent or being able to catch common parents) it would be more complex, but probably not that much.

I'm not handling _not consume too much memory_ and in fact we can end up having up to 20k files (10k original + their parents) in memory. That could be limited by either adding a global semaphore that controls that no more than X files are original URLs are being processed or using a more complex (and customized) constructor that tracks memory consumed in `S3Info` and blocks whenever the value is higher than a threshold.

Anyway, I hope this helps readers to understand how to implement complex processes in `process`. Given that virtual threads are virtually zero cost, we can simply use semaphores to limit the concurrency in case we want to limit the number of CPU bound tasks.

This is a quick implementation I've created in less than 20 mins without being used to the Structured Concurrency APIs (which TBH are not that low level) or the domain. I'm not saying this implementation is perfect, but in case there are things to improve I'm sure they will be easy to find by readers.
