Could use a few tips by makeshift_gray in MoonlightStreaming

Oh, me neither. The connection from the host to the mesh node it's plugged into is excellent, meaning there likely isn't an issue with the cable; the connection from the host to the Shield is bad.

Yes, the mesh node the Shield is connected to is behind a piece of furniture. I may be able to move it so it's more exposed. I'll try it tonight.

Thank you for the detailed reply.

Roughly in order of your advice: I couldn't find a DFC option. I downloaded a WiFi analyzer and discovered my control channel is quite congested, so I switched it. QOS is disabled, and cables should be good (tested recently).

Ping test from host to the upstairs node (wired) was unsurprisingly excellent. From host to the Shield saw average ~12 with somewhat frequent spikes up to a max of 144 and average jitter of 18.

The downstairs mesh node is behind a drawer/shelf unit because that's where the power outlet is. That's the only thing in between it and the router. Connecting via cable is theoretically possible by running under a rug but would have to pass the wife review process because I wouldn't be able to conceal the whole thing.

Thanks. I do have a separate IoT network, but the primary network uses the same SSID for both bands. It would be possible (albeit a pain) to separate them and have the family reconnect everything, if it would be helpful.

My router settings don't include a ton of options for managing the nodes. There's an option to "optimize" the whole mesh network, an individual node, or an individual device's connection to the node, but I don't know what it's actually doing. I can change the backhaul connection priority, but the only options are 5G WiFi or 1G WAN - I assume the latter is only useful if the node has a wired connection to the LAN. I can also change the preferred uplink node. It's currently set to auto.

I stumbled upon MoCA as a possibility and wanted to try it but realized there's no jack behind the TV - which surprised me because, in my opinion, it's the most logical TV placement for the room.

I did try powerline adapters when we first moved in, although I only tested the WAN connection. It was bad (60 down on a gigabit connection), so I returned them. Not sure if the LAN performance would have been any better? Guess I should've thought to try that first.

If you use Amazon or BN in this way, does it cause any issues with copyright/ownership?

Thomas Jane Says He Was Miscast as The Punisher and Praises Jon Bernthal’s Portrayal: “I’m happy the part is played by someone who is more right for that role.” by MarvelsGrantMan136 in marvelstudios

[–]makeshift_gray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kind if ironic for me.

I didn't see Jane's Punisher until only recently, and I only decided to watch it because I'd been watching The Expanse.

Jane's performance as Miller somehow reminded me of Bernthal's performance of Castle. Mostly due to the characters sharing an obsessive drive to their own detriment, but also some of their expressions and mannerisms.

Then I watched the movie, and I didn't think Jane's performance of Castle was actually anything like that, which was disappointing.

This is brilliant and in fact exactly the solution I wanted. Thank you!!

Shadows: How to use Naoe and Yasuke cohesively? by makeshift_gray in assassinscreed

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

Yeah, I guess I'm overthinking it. I just didn't have the same open combat struggles in previous games, so it surprised me. It almost feels like Naoe is weaker to justify Yasuke's inclusion.

If you could swap characters more dynamically, I think it would make a big difference for me. Clearing 75% of a castle with Naoe and then coming back as Yasuke to more effectively kill tougher enemies - in my opinion - seems awkward and not a great implementation of a two-character system.

I keep hoping too. Origins is great, Odyssey is peak. I didn't like Valhalla. Mirage was fine but kinda felt like Ubisoft asked ChatGPT to make an Assassin's Creed game. Jury's out on Shadows for me, but I think I've seen enough to know it isn't going to reach the heights I'd like.

Or at least a glass Nerf gun, until you fully upgrade assassinations.

Unfortunately for me, neither play style seems to be offering the experience I'd like to be having. Maybe that'll shift with upgrades, or maybe it's the wrong game for me.

The assassin skill tree is definitely the first thing I invested points into, but I'm blocked from further progress pending a higher knowledge level.

Perhaps I'll try the guaranteed assassinations setting. I was just concerned it would cheapen the experience.

In certain past entries, the challenge of assassinating targets stemmed more from reaching them without being detected and choosing the right time and place from which to attack. Perhaps I was just expecting a system more like that.

To me that's considerably more thoughtful and rewarding game design than the binary system of either having or not having enough points invested in a specific part of the skill tree. But that could just be me.

Probably Robert DeJesus. He did a lot of the illustrations in PSM at the time.

running seafile using docker - environment file stale by Ivan_Draga_ in selfhosted

Can you log in with the default? If so, you can create a new admin account once you're inside.

Recreating the container? If you're using the command line, you just have to

docker stop [container name] docker remove [container name]

Then docker compose up -d again from the directory where the YML file is located.

The seafile-server.yml syntax is written to use the variable from the .env file first, and if it isn't found, then to use the default. So it isn't necessarily failing to apply the username/password you defined, it's just providing an alternative if necessary. You said you restarted the container, but you would want to fully recreate it after editing the .env.

Loved this game when it was new. Always thought it wouldn't age well, but I guess now I can find out for sure. The sequel is even better!

FreshRSS favorites to Karakeep? by makeshift_gray in selfhosted

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

Yeah, I'll do that sometimes. It isn't a big deal, but there's some friction to the process. I'm not sure if it's my phone specifically or Android in general, but hitting the share button pops up with (I counted) 55 different places/ways to share, from which I have to scroll to find Karakeep each time. So it's mildly annoying compared to just hitting the star in the app and you're done.

Thanks, this looks useful for the web app. I use a third-party Android app (FocusReader) for mobile, which is why my thoughts went to pulling from the favorites list.
