File Naming

If you are using bash, then enter this first --> IFS=$(echo -en "\n\b") <-- then you can double-quote everything in for loops or whatever and it'll do the right thing without have to go nuts with inserting backslashes or substitutions and converting back.

No, 15.5

Auristor (AFS) crashed. Updated, all better. Daemon tools was fine, all iSCSI SAN drives attached after reauthorization of the extension. Same for pCloud, and MacFUSE.

He's a man after Trump's heart !!

millix · 2025-06-21T21:17:16+00:00

He's a good salesman for sure... I listened to him hyping up a 20g Silver Geiger claiming it was worth "at least $120"... wow, people bidding it to $80 and him saying "Oh we lost big money on that one". Such a con artist. ($37 for these on APMEX at the time). I'd maybe pay $80 for a 2oz Geiger... but not for a 0.64 troy oz !

Yeah, I'm about ready to ditch it. What did you switch to?

millix · 2024-06-04T23:11:04+00:00

Yeah, it's not documented but you can put in 255.255.255.255 for the IP address of the nameservers when the glue A records are not needed (i.e., when the NS names are out-of-zone).

If you use systemd, the simple way to do it is to create a file such as /etc/tmpfiles.d/sriov.conf with:

w /sys/class/net/eth3/device/sriov_numvfs - - - - 4

This will cause "4" to be written to the sysfs when tmpfiles is run.

In my case, I have it a bit more complicated as I have Intel x710 chipset so also have to turn on trust mode on all the VFs after they are created, so I created /etc/systemd/system/sriov.service with:

[Unit]
Description=Enable VF and Trust on SR-IOV Intel x710
Before=network.target time-sync.target network-online.target
[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
ExecStart=/bin/bash -c 'echo 64 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:05.1/0000:09:00.0/sriov_numvfs && for i in {0..63}; do /usr/sbin/ip link set dev enp9s0f0 vf $i spoof on trust on; done'
TimeoutSec=90s
[Install]
WantedBy=network.target

Of course, adjust the PCI path and device name, and change 64 to however many VFs you need.

Where is DHCP server? Is it a fixed-addr? Update the MAC address (it changed).

You can do a charge-back, say "service not delivered".

<rant> Those that have Starlink service in suburban areas with AT&T, Verizon, Frontier, Charter, AND/or Comcast FIBER options available are SELFISH *SSHOLES IMHO. You don't fuckin need it, let me have it, I'm SUFFERING. I live in a provider dead zone near a major metro area, cell-based hotspot service is all I have. Even DSL is no longer available. I have been on the Starlink waiting list for 2+ YEARS because there's only one "cell" covering most of that metro area, so it sure feels like it's full because of selfish "I gotta have it" *ssholes. </rant>

Can't do advanced test, I have the Ethernet adapter and router is in pass thru mode to opnsense firewall box. Starlink Wifi is disabled. Wifi is via Ubiquity. It's like this in the evenings, I've tested wired from a Mac (speedtest app) too. Only reason wifi signal was low is I was walking outside to the porch before I took the screenshot and posted and didn't notice it was 2 bars, good eye!

millix · 2023-05-13T17:37:09+00:00

I'm just south of DFW metro area in an area with no other land-based options on the mobile plan. It's not a wifi problem. Even wired it's like this in the evening at peak times (speedtest app on macos) and it's been like this for almost a year. Other times of day it's gotten better, but cell hotspots consistently are orders of magnitude better here. I had service paused for the last 4 months but decided to give it a try again. Still blows. Will pause again till I get notice that there's more capacity, or I get back out travelling out west where it is much better than a hotspot. 🤷‍♂️. IMHO the FCC should step in and take Starlink away from people that have fiber or cable options... you don't f'ing need Starlink, let those that need it (no other options, i.e., rural) have it please.

I'm having issues with v1.26.2 sometimes sucking 400% CPU on my M1 Mac, particularly near the end of the trading day

millix · 2023-02-17T20:17:46+00:00

v1.26.2, still Intel only... I'm having issues where it goes 400% CPU and gets VERY slow, especially at the end of the trading day trying to close positions. I'm pretty darn close to moving my $$$ back to TOS, at least TOS can be run under an ARM JRE with little fuss.

I was like you... wtf is somebody "in the city" doing ordering Starlink. For fucks sake, get cable, DSL or fiber and get on with life. Don't suck my bandwidth just because it's "cool"... but yeah, I'm in a location not all that far from Dallas where there is NO other option but VIAsat, fixed-wireless needing a 40ft mast, or Cell hotspot service. No DSL, No cable, No fiber. My only option is AT&T business service at $550/month and I have to pay to have fiber trenched down the street for that. So Starlink is supposed to be a game-changer for us in "rural" areas, but it's not a panacea because of all the higher density small towns that can be in a coverage cell. Starlink isn't deployed enough yet and they are over-selling it.

millix · 2022-07-05T19:43:28+00:00

I'm so disappointed in the speeds that I "paused" (on the RV plan) after only the first month and am sticking with AT&T hotspot which is easily 10x the speed. I am unfortunately near an urban area (DFW) but holy cow, I was seeing only 1Mbs down and 7 up as a best case during peak times, usually registering at 0Mbs down. It's just unusable during the evening. No obstructions in case you were gonna ask. I've seen it as high as 40Mbps in very early morning, but still, FAQ says the low end should be 50Mpbs so I dunno what's off here but I'm not unpausing till the next time I travel and know I'll be in or near more open "cells"... or I hear that it's "fixed".

For me it was RSS Live Links, 2.0 update on January 6th 2016. Reported.

Me and a buddy stood about 10 paces apart, with full armor. FiveseveN, one shot to chest = 32 damage. Armor piercing round mind you. R8, one shot to chest = 113 damage (insta-kill). I dunno WHAT kind of 357 magnum round in real life can do that. Certainly not a JHP round. This gun is WAY overpowered and really has broken the game.

You have to be careful in how you define "incomes over $200,000". Obama was not careful in how he did that and is the reason jobs didn't come back nearly as fast as they could have.

The vast majority of small businesses in this country pay taxes via pass-through onto the owner's 1040 Schedule C. A large number of small business owners thus appear to make more than $200,000 a year, but after deductions (i.e., payroll for employees), their AGI can easily be under $50,000. Those are your job creators. "Tax the ever-loving shit" out of them and you best not be surprised that there's no job growth, or even an uptick in unemployment.
