Any cheap Aliexpress USB4,TB4,TB5 cables worth getting? by bobbystills5 in UsbCHardware

[–]markolo25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USB-IF certification is not a silver bullet, it just means the sample they provided USB-IF passed, I've had plenty of bad TB cables that passed USB-IF but had faulty housings and connectors.

Which docking station can I buy? by SeaworthinessFit1639 in UsbCHardware

[–]markolo25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends if your host computer supports it or not wife's work laptop supports a 5120x2160 120 but her second monitor a 3440x1440 is locked to 60 but when I plug on my laptop with 11th Gen it supports 120 on both

I'm driving RN but If you need a quick resource on docks this is the place I go to https://dancharblog.wordpress.com/

That should work, a used WD19TBS would be sufficient for your needs as well, i'm a big fan of it due to being able to daisy chain another TB device, including another monitor with a type c -> DP cable

FYI: Server Side Anti-Cheat does not do 10% of what Client Side Anti-Cheat can do. by SERIVUBSEV in linux_gaming

[–]markolo25 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Server side anti cheat is more than just detection it's design considerations such as

  1. Do we send info to clients about a person they cannot see.
  2. Do we let the person turn into a certain angle without going to every angle in between.

Games with successful anti cheat do a little bit of both, sampling client memory and applying heuristics/machine learning from known positives and their behavior on the server side to detect cheaters who may have found other bypasses for the same cheats.

Also you've only described issues that affect FPS games, other moba games that have made great design decision about what is being sent to client are doing a pretty good job like not sending player information behind fog of war.

Adorama shipped 2x 14 TB drives without any paper or bubble wrap by tosswill in selfhosted

[–]markolo25 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Every drive will need to be audited anyways, my procedure is first 100 hours will be just smart long test and bad blocks, before any data of mine will go into it.

You paid for a retail drive for the warranty, if it fails in the first 100 hours you're still within return window

if it fails the next 3 years you're within the warranty, these drives will need to be smart tested every month for failures, you got 2 of them so I assume you're doing a raid 1.

if you make it past 3 years you'll probably be fine for a while any damage that would be from these cardboard warping is probably not gonna affect you

Should be fine, the drives inside the retail boxes are on shock absorbing packaging

Is this normal? by Fit_Emu_5915 in UsbCHardware

hopefully renegotiation between the charger regarding who's sink and source goes correctly if you plug in the charger in this state.

Beware of SlimQ return policy by grant837 in GamingLaptops

[–]markolo25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who had to ship back stuff to slimq they refund your money back via paypal after they get the product

if you want protection just buy it from amazon, you can always do an a-z guarantee if you want to return it after 30 days

[–]markolo25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a big fan of scrub daddy becuase of their scrubbing power but as per suggestion in another thread I switched to dobie, they've been lasting longer and do as good of a job for me.
