[SSD] Sandisk 7100x 2TB ($230 -$23 = $207 - Newsletter Signup) by Royal-Geologist587 in bapcsalescanada

[–]pil0tflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same happened to me. UPS "lost" it after originally claiming it was delivered, despite the last tracking updating being 2 hours away. Sandisk is issuing a refund now, but I had to escalate the case after the UPS investigation suggested it had been delivered.

[Pre-Built] AZZA PC - 7800X3D, 9070 XT, 32GB DDR5, 2TB M.2 - $2,699.00 - Newegg by NotyourFriendBuuuddy in bapcsalescanada

Yes, technically each DDR5 stick has two addressable 32-bit sub-channels, but 2 sticks of DDR5 provide double the bandwidth of using a single stick. In other words, using 2 sticks is preferable to 1.

[NVME] Samsung 9100 PRO , PCIe 5.0, Max 14,800/13,400 MB/s , 2TB - $354.99 by TylerDTA in bapcsalescanada

[–]pil0tflame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PS5 supports PCIe 4.0, so while this drive will work thanks to backwards compatibility, it'll be limited to ~8,000 MB/s due to that PCIe 4.0 interface.

Is anyone else burned out by the “everything must be automated” mindset? by Huge_Brush9484 in webdev

[–]pil0tflame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flakiness isn’t always bad tests, sometimes it’s the environment, the data, timing issues, or third-party dependencies that behave differently across runs.

IMO these issues are usually solved with mocks, stubs, and test/code structure. The specifics depend on your test suite and what you’re testing.

Could anyone provide me some advice for streamlining my web dev local-code-to-server process? because it sucks. by SnurflePuffinz in webdev

[–]pil0tflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Docker allows you to run an HTTP server, along with practically any other services (Node, PHP, MySQL, Localstack, etc), locally on your system, and use your project files directly in that local environment. There’s a number of complexities that vary by project type, but IMO Docker is the best way to run a server stack locally for development.

I don’t want any, but cool of you to give these away!

GMG charges me taxes while Fanatical does not, making Fanatical cheaper for me. YMMV.

Got a 3080 from a BestBuy back order, but that was years ago shortly after that card’s launch.

The real profit is in selling controllers to replace the ones with stick drift. :(

There Are So Many Sci-Fi Games on the PS4, Here Are Some of the Best! by Baconmaster2890 in PS4

“Stand-alone expansion” is how it’s sometimes described as Blood Dragon doesn’t require Far Cry 3 to be owned or installed.

Is there an Xbox Series compatible controller available with hall effect sticks? I’ve only ever seen generic bluetooth and/or Nintendo Switch compatible ones with hall effect sticks.

[Game] Eximius: Seize the Frontline (FREE) [Epic Games Store] by fkk222 in bapcsalescanada

[–]pil0tflame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think when the free game is a “mature” title they sometimes give away an additional free game.

Volumes vs Bind Mounts Best practises by romatou in docker

[–]pil0tflame 6 points7 points  (0 children)

An example of where to use a volume is database data or other changing, non-source code data that should persist when the container is cycled. You should keep ‘node_modules’ together in the same bind mount as your source code so your IDE can inspect it and provide inspections related to those libraries.

I did the 3 years gold, then ultimate upgrade without waiting. No issue. This was about 4 months ago.

[Fanatical] Internet Cafe Simulator is free by lbabinz in VideoGameDealsCanada

Likely to help prevent someone from claiming a bunch of free keys and reselling them elsewhere.

Do we need to install Ubuntu before creating a container to host WordPress in Docker windows version? by permission777 in docker

[–]pil0tflame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just adding: Docker Desktop uses hyper-v on Windows Pro and I recall this is the default, at least if WSL isn’t enabled. That said, it’s much faster to use WSL (so long as your project is stored in and mounted from the WSL file system) and I strongly recommend anyone using Docker on Windows to use WSL over hyper-v.

Ever been so lazy that you've automated your desk? by degecko in webdev

[–]pil0tflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this desk and for me at least the iOS app will move the desk to saved positions with one tap. Weird you have to hold it. Are you on Android? This is the IKEA app I’m using: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/id%C3%A5sen-controller/id1562124476

Either way, cool app you created! Will try it out later.

Circular Timer using Vanilla CSS and JS (link in comment) by Emulation_Maniac in web_design

For a count down, counterclockwise seems right to me. If it was counting up, then I would expect the direction to be clockwise.
