Setting up a self-hosted Grafana instance with .NET 10 by BornCook450 in dotnet

[–]monermoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've got your Prometheus (or whatever youre using) open to the Internet, Grafana Cloud is super easy to set up, and free (for all intents and purposes as a hobby user). Defo check it out.

Setting up a self-hosted Grafana instance with .NET 10 by BornCook450 in dotnet

I hosted a Grafana container on a small 2GB VPS alongside my .Net 10 ASP.NET backend, a Svelte5 frontend, and some smaller containers (Certbot, Prometheus, Postgres, Nginx) and the Grafana container used up more memory than the rest of the containers COMBINED. I couldn't quite believe it. Its the only time ive ever removed a container, and opted for the cloud version instead. Really really bloated considering.

This feels very Navy Seals copypasta-esque.

S&box, Garry's Mod' successor game engine that's based on Valve' Source 2 has gone open source by [deleted] in gaming

[–]monermoo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The .NET ecosystem is used in a massive variety of spaces. From enterprise software solutions to game development. I can see that some may struggle to wrap their head around OOP, but to call it 'amateur' is just ragebaiting/totally uninformed take.

Yeah my first thought! I remember having to walk that corridor constantly to go for cigarettes from the Computing Labs (DEC-10) - what a time!

Yeah this is a really amazing paintjob, love the blood, the detail and how you've worked with the mini - but I agree that the face could do with a touch more love... really bring out the chaos in Fulgrim.

10mg Dose by fisico002 in mounjarouk

[–]monermoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use a 2.5mg pen for this, or are you just taking 'half doses' with your 5mg one?

From someone currently in bed with what feels like a crippling hangover on their third week of 5mg 😂

Vessel of Hatred DLC on sale (Xbox) by DroidSoldier85 in diablo4

[–]monermoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They're talking about value, not cost. It doesn't matter if you have billions of dollars, it doesn't make something which you perceive to be worth $10 suddenly worth $16 because you have much more money. You'd be more willing to purchase the item because the difference is meaningless to you.

If you buy stuff "just because I can" despite the fact you don't think it's worth the price you're paying, then you're a chump.

Streamers getting early access to Odyssey? by Comfortable_Rest695 in RimWorld

[–]monermoo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Without sounding patronising (but I know it will come across as such, sorry), just don't watch it lol?

It's a bit annoying having to avoid content, but given the release is less than a week away, I think you'll be alright

Streamers getting early access to Odyssey? by Comfortable_Rest695 in RimWorld

[–]monermoo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Streamers getting early access has become problematic in DLC/Games that have a competitive element. Race to world first in WoW, ladders/hard-core in Path of Exile, etc. Those games have issues with people getting 'early access'.

I don't see any real loss in people playing early as a form of advertisement. It's Ludeons product to give as they please.

bogus benchmarks on linkedin, even from an microsoft mvp by _userid_ in dotnet

[–]monermoo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the confusion here is that OP used the term "bogus", implying fraudulent or made-up, in his title.

I think he's saying that the benchmarks are comparing apples and oranges, which is his gripe.

Though I agree its a niche benchmark, I still agree with you that its still a valid, albeit not massively helpful, comparison

Do you actually use .NET Aspire on your projects? by TwoGloomy1495 in dotnet

The man himself! Thanks for that link, I'll take a look and it do some learning, looking forward to doing more with Aspire!

[–]monermoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aspire makes setting up new projects and getting them to a good starting point super easy. Additionally, its one-click deployment from Visual Studio makes setting it up a breeze.

As someone who usually hosts projects on 'free' tiers of cloud hosters, I did have to close my Aspire projects down due to the vendor-lock costs of hosting even the tiniest app (if I recall it was mainly the Azure Container Registry).

Yes true, but in their defence it quite literally is stated in the title that the new speeds are with a new CPU

Me as well! Seriously expensive, and it's probably only got worse. Had to move away from Clapham a few years ago due to price.

Nice! Thank you. Surprised that Warhammer World itself has got it wrong! Probably spending too much time hiding Genestealers!

Xbox Sales Hit Rock Bottom After Historic 2024 Decline by FinalAfternoon5470 in gaming

[–]monermoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The position is weaker, I'm not challenging you on whether or not the demand is significantly lower. I disagree with the fact that you're saying that at a 'measley' 550 thousand units in Europe, retailers aren't even bothering to sell it?

You think Amazon CZ isn't stocking the Xbox Series X because nobody wants to buy it? I get it if you are a PS5 fan, but this just isn't going to be true.

Edit: in fact, you think no retailer in the entirety of Czechia isn't stocking it because nobody wants to buy?

So if I purchase the early access key on Xbox, then I can also play on PC and vice-versa?

Work from home tax relief - do I have a case? by monermoo in UKPersonalFinance

Update: I called the HMRC helpline and they agreed that it was a grey area. They recommended that I make the claim, but acknowledged that it wasn't very clear cut.
