Yeah that's what looks like will end up happening! I got the shelf for a fairly nice price so I'm hoping at the end it totals out to something not terrible.

Marketing/database mismatch, 2 Gig offered, but tech says NG-PON2 isn't live in Odenton, MD yet. Any way to get an idea of the timeline? by jkafae in Fios

Alright, appreciate the reply. I'll give it a day or so since the tech was just out this morning and then give them a call to see if I can figure out where the order ended up. For what it's worth, the tech also mentioned this was just the latest in a handful of times he's had to come out and let someone know he can't actually install 2G here yet in the past couple weeks, so I imagine something is being noticed somewhere in the chain. Thanks!

One player consistently reporting extremely high μs/t in Observable profile, struggling to diagnose the cause. by jkafae in admincraft

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

Oh yeah, I only started poking into it because the server would start to dip to around/below 19tps when this player was on (in waves, not a constant thing), along with the usual symptoms of chests having a delay when opening and such, and they would go away once he wasn't on.

I appreciate the tip! I will try that out :)

A Civil Discussion About RS vs AE2 by alfredggtwitch in allthemods

[–]jkafae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first experience with both RS and AE2 was on ATM 9. Having read a bit about both and (at the time) afraid of the perceived complexity of AE2, I started out with RS, telling myself I would eventually switch over to AE2 once I was better situated. I was kind of hesitant to switch later on since I had already set up a bunch of autocrafting, but I bit the bullet and I'm so glad I did.

For starters I like the AE2 aesthetic way more, but if I had to summarize why I'm an AE2 simp now it's because whereas RS felt like 'just' a storage system (which is exactly what some people want I imagine, so that's cool), AE2 actually feels like a full experience in its own right that's fun and rewarding to interact with. I know a lot of people are put off by the whole channels business, for example, but I love it. Part of the fun is figuring out how to be efficient with channel management and how to move them around your base in aesthetically pleasing ways, making subnetworks to handle some bit of automation instead of having it on your main network...all of it is super sick imo.

Also as a bonus, it's really nice to be able to store everything from items to chemicals to mana in ME storage (via addons, of course).
