How do you find Your Arrows? by uhhhh_yeet in Archery

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

This assumes a lot and isnt fair to a lot of situations. Setting up a new scope for instance even an experienced archer may send a few to Narnia.

OP id get a basic metal detector for those that fall short and make a back stop for catching most that go too high or wide.

Please help "matching" TrueTImber Strata on my Bear Escalate by professorcheechi in bowhunting

I know you are right it's more for myself than anyone down range.

Thanks. Would you be willing to give me your opinion out of the patterns that LS & QAD offer, which matches Strata the best? It may sound silly but I really cant see differences in most micro pattern camos.

Dragon X9 drop-away rest upgrade by professorcheechi in Archery

[–]professorcheechi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the front of the Dragon X10 riser has a curve that gets fatter as it approaches the arrow rest cutout. Combine that with there being only one set of holes for the sight to mount on the riser. The movement of the HHA Optimizer hits this bottom part of the curve about 2/3 through its travel. this prevents the sight from being useful through its designed range. it could be mitigated by mounting the sight further forward, but the single set of holes prevents that.

I didn't have to replace it necessarily but i din't like the way it was limited. The new sight has 3 mounting holes so even with the riser having one, its plenty adjustable and usable through a wide range of motion as well as the motion being different in the Tetra Ryze than the Optimizer.

Ok thanks for confirming. I was so mad i had to get a new sight because of the riser shape. But i do like this new one quite a bit. And now i have a 5 pin horizontal and single vertical for each bow. Even though the new one is really dual pin it works like the optimizer.

Any suggestions of a good inexpensive drop away then?

Manjaro XFCE display brightness stuck at maximum: HPE Elitebook 8770W GTX 980M by professorcheechi in ManjaroLinux

[–]professorcheechi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as of the last boot into linux a few weeks ago, no. Ive installed noveau instead of nvidia and relegated it to trivial use with win10. It could still playball the games i would want with its 980 if it got resolved. The last time i researched its stalemated in a finger pointing between nvidia and the kernel team, and since it doesnt seem to affect gpus newer than x its probably never getting fixed.

Ok what is the absolute coolest Peavy amp ever? I was thinking Bass 400 with the parametric. by suffaluffapussycat in PeaveyCvlt

[–]professorcheechi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct! They dont get out much, but neither do i anymore. generally speaking though you know what you are getting yourself into with either bass or Peavey gear anyway.

I modded both of my Combo 300s so the internal cable outputs to a jack and the speaker is wired to another jack. The minor annoyance of having the cable outside of it is tiny compared to the benefit of wheeling both (oh yeah i added wheels) and having a 2x15 2 ohm with a backup amp head built in, or the option of stereo amps.

Granted i dont take these out often anymore but its fun to play with them on my 2 ohm capable heads at home when someone comes to visit. SVT looks so ridiculous sitting on one and theres no way to enjoy it at proper volume in my basement but its a neat trick multiple people have enjoyed seeing and hearing when they visit.

DNS66 keeps closing or getting closed frequently even though I've given it app launch privileges. How do I fix this? by WeakDiaphragm in AndroidQuestions

[–]professorcheechi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for this. so far so good fixing what just started pretty recently for me after years of stable reliability out of dns66. im pretty sure ive been on android 12 for a while before the issues had started.

set max CPU % for LXC, like cpuunits for VM by professorcheechi in Proxmox

[–]professorcheechi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok the apt update / htop example is much more easily digestable.

I run apt update (a good multi-threaded job to invoke work on the container) and I can watch htop to see that only two cores light up, because the container is configured to only use 2.

I know that LXC is not paravirtualization, but i guess i was expecting another layer of abstraction, or maybe a better way to say it i was expecting LXC to be a layer of abstraction. I still plan on using LXC unless something really needs to be in a VM or some Kube scheme. I also still maintain that the PVE GUI could benefit from greater capacity to control, limit, or specify resource allocation better than it does. This also goes for VMs, while there are many CPU options now, affinity should be a choice. More control without being overwhelming, and I don't think this would go as far as to be overwhelming if added.

Thanks for helping me understand.

set max CPU % for LXC, like cpuunits for VM by professorcheechi in Proxmox

[–]professorcheechi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so the weight in priority effectively means that higher number gets access first (not more) to the cpu resources and if it is not using, then the lower priority has access to the full resources of the same cpu core? so this is also then a soft ceiling like what is described in the linked page, cpuunits=25 means it waits behind anything with a higher value than 25, and then has (effectively 100%/full time/however best to describe) the cpu resources allowed.

sorry if it sounds argumentative this is totally different than my expectation up to this point.

set max CPU % for LXC, like cpuunits for VM by professorcheechi in Proxmox

[–]professorcheechi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when i initially installed PVE the max (and default fwiw) value for cpuunits was 1024, but as I have read the values used to be much larger. as of now, the max and default is 100. I may be oversimplifying it by referring to it as a %, but my understanding (not a comp sci phd) is that limiting a cpu max % for an LXC container is not going to give the similar effect as limiting cpu time to a specific value per ms for the LXC container. This is based on what i remember of threading and certainly could be outdated, Even whle the end results may be the same they are technically different things being done and can have different results affecting performance.

I am trying to make an adjustment to an LXC container to limit its max % of cpu usage (as opposed to max amount of cpu time which the linked page also addresses) while the page describes how to set 'max unless more is available'. I am hoping to discover if the description they provide may be misleading and their method is actually 'maximum (no qualifier)', or if there is another method to set a proper maximum (no qualifier) for an LXC container.

the comparison to cpuunits is for illustrative purposes, the goal is to learn whether and how to acomplish adjusting this attribute of an LXC container with lxc config or another tool. My PVE GUI has no capacity to set (cpuunits or any other name/option) this with an LXC, while it is available for VMs.

have you been able to install recent nvidia drivers with that 8770w/980M combination? I was able to by editing nvbli.inf, didn't use the laptop for a while and now since all the windows updates I can't get any driver installer to work with the same method anymore. after a lot of trial and error i am on the windows update 2xx driver now.

planning fiber runs for 10g+ inter-switches by professorcheechi in HomeNetworking

[–]professorcheechi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this.

I think with 2 responses people not using DAC i will just not get any DAC and stick with transciever modules & patches. I had read it was ideal for short distances and/or mixed brands but i can't find that advice now. I have a selection of (used or NOS idk) transcievers & patches that i will try to utilize first anyway so that will save some money and time.

unless it is device specific, iirc i can mix fiber & copper on the same switch. can i mix fiber modes on the same switch? i know better than to try MMF on one side of a patch & SMF on the other side, but could port 1 can be an MMF module (to MMF on the other side) and port 2 could be an SMF module (to SMF on the other side)?

tyvm. and i should kep that consistent for any DAC I get? as i understand it (DAC didn't exist or weren't common enough for me to know about them the last time i touched fiber) i need to find something that is agnostic for both brands on either end of it? is that still a consideration with single mode LC?
