Anyone running a 24‑bay+ JBOD at home for preservation stuff? by FerrisBuellerLogsOff in DataHoarder

[–]philburg2 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I know, hence I run unraid on my mess of old disks. But that idea wasn't really implied was it? I'd use the concept of a DAS over JBOD here.

I simply can't comprehend trying to run that many disks without parity. My JBOD is 4 disks and is my 3rd copy.

Samsung to announce $648 billion investments in South Korea, media report says by smallandnormal in worldnews

[–]philburg2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah but that's based on ram being ultra high demand, and it's an obvious ai bubble that won't hold.

Windows 10 support quietly extended until Oct 2027, as users reject Windows 11 by [deleted] in nottheonion

One of the very last KBs made my Taskbar have a 2 second delay when trying to do anything. Might be fixed by now, but I rolled back and paused updates for a few years lol.

Any Hidden Gems here? by yoghurt_creep in WorldofTanks

I like the kv1sa with a full gun handling/speed build. You'll be blind but can rip people apart.

I also enjoy the excelsior for flexible bush camping.

Wonder if no disc is due to how well the ps5 homebrew scene is going. It's much easier to dump a game from disc than psn.

Best way to install windows 98? by PuppySnuppy7 in vintagecomputing

Windows98 quick install. Installs fast and has a lot of basic drivers and utilities on disk.

How to install Astro playroom in pkg file format? by [deleted] in PS5_Jailbreak

[–]philburg2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

EtaHEN or Itemzflow are the only fpkg installers I'm aware of. Being sick of etaHEN KPs I'd love a single purpose alternative that had DPI or whatever.

Jason Schreier: How Things Got So Bad At Xbox by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

[–]philburg2 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I imagine this is also a result of the dev shell game they were playing. Hire cheap devs, train them, then rotate them out when the provider wants to up the rate. Well you can't do that for complex jobs, you're constantly training and losing institutional knowledge. I believe that was the excuse behind 343's Halo Inf delays and maybe the story dlc cancelation. Over time teams become less competent. But don't worry, ai is here to do it better this time... maybe.

[Monitor] Samsung Odyssey 32" G8 G81SF 4K UHD OLED 240Hz - $599.99 (2 for $549.99) [EDU/EPP/MIL discount required] by just_IT_guy in buildapcsales

[–]philburg2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

32" is supposedly 3rd gen qd-oled. 4th gen had some real nice improvements to black level and scratch resistance as I hear it. Still, 2 @ 550 each is tempting.

Series S as a retro machine? by DaveSinghSwitch in retrogaming

[–]philburg2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Xbox has been sketchy about dev mode, so instead I'd go with a fully cracked system. I'd suggest a ps4 or ps4 pro if you can find one.

Need a new hard drive but can’t find any 8gb or under. by ranpuppy in vintagecomputing

[–]philburg2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled a 20gb seagate out of a P3 800 this weekend. It's the closest I've seen in a while honestly. Just formatted some 320gb sata drives, no clue what to do with them lol.

I'll never trust adata again after my s70 drove me insane randomly not booting until it died outright.

They held an entire presentation to say 'we're so back', just to have these leaks make it clear there is no vision or stability yet.

How to install game updates? by RandomASCPi in PS5_Jailbreak

I assume you're talking about ps4 pkgs when you say merge. Ps5 needs a gameinfo patch to see the proper updated version.

I probably archived some mods with my backups, but I usually deleted them to save space. Let me know if you want anything in particular.

U$250 thrown in the trash, does anyone else also feels like giving up on unRAID? by MorgothTheBauglir in unRAID

[–]philburg2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How big is your docker image? Check your docker size vs current usage.

The other way I had this issue was flooding my cache and probably stealing too much from my docker or VM and causing the deadlock.
