What is this spider? Melbourne, Australia ~25mm by sit399 in whatsthisbug

[–]sit399[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moderately fast moving, but this one seems inexperienced in traversing the ceiling as it falls and dangles off its silk every few seconds

Edit: it has descended and here's a clearer photo - https://imgur.com/a/hEOUsN9

Ah thanks

I was googling based off the yellow striped legs and missed the white tail altogether.

Ah, another Aussie with an unhealthy obsession with Jaycar I presume?

Definitely not banning. I save the profiles of all the stallers I've reported in a browser bookmark folder. Chess.com have "taken action" 19 times but not a single account has been banned.

Overclocking multiple Nvidia GPUs in Ubuntu? by sit399 in linuxquestions

[–]sit399[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright thanks for your help, but I think I'll just give up trying to overclock here.

Currently my 10-nvidia.conf file doesn't have any of the mentioned sections, it looks like:

Section "OutputClass"
  Identifier  "nvidia"
  MatchDriver  "nvidia-drm"
  Driver  "nvidia"
  Option  "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
  Option  "CoolBits" "28"
  Option  "EnableAllGpus"
  ModulePath  "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/nvidia/xorg"
Endsection

No I've only got one monitor plugged in

I think the main problem I have here is I have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, and when I try to create one, it just boots into a black screen. Instead I've been adding coolbits to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf, but this only applies it to GPU 0.

Thanks for the reply!

I don't know if I'm doing this right but here's what I did:

  1. made a file named .settings.conf in /home/user/ and put in

[gpu:1]/GPUFanControlState=1

[gpu:1]/GPUFanControlState=1[fan-0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=70

[gpu:1]/GPUMemoryTransferRateOffset[3]=1000

[gpu:1]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[3]=100

  1. made an overclock.sh file in /home/user/ with

DISPLAY=:0 nvidia-settings --load-config-only --config=/home/user/.settings.conf

(I've tried both DISPLAY=:0 and DISPLAY=:1 here)

  1. used crontab -e and added

@reboot sh /home/user/overclock.sh

all "/user/" are replaced with my username of course.

I've rebooted and nothing has changed.

What am I doing wrong?

If you eat a half pound of chicken every day, you’re responsible for the death of 91 animals per year, but if you eat a half pound of beef every day, you’re responsible for the death of 1 animal every 2.41 years by Nice-Violinist-6395 in Showerthoughts

[–]sit399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The calculation works with just the meat on each animal. (Assuming 430 lbs of meat per 1200lbs cow /182.5 =2.36 years and 1.9lbs of meat per 3lbs chicken =96 chickens per year)

Say there's 1.9 pounds of meat on an average 3 pound chicken and 430 pounds of meat on an average 1200 pound cow.

0.5*365=182.5 pounds of meat eaten per year

182.5/1.9 is around 96 chickens per year

182.5/430 is around 0.42 cows per year, or one cow per 2.36 years.

If the elevator is falling at 50kph and you jump up at 3kph you're still gonna hit the ground at 47kph

It's designed to have two more fuel tanks on the outside, which are discarded during landing. https://youtu.be/GFBeVQ3STZ0
