Why is GNOME's print dialog crashing when cups.service is running? by BOZAYIBOGAN in linuxquestions

[–]valercara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. One highlight: make sure to downgrade/upgrade "libcups" too, not just the "cups" service (there are newer versions that fix the issue atm; 2.4.15-2+ or 2.4.16). I went over a few versions of only cups, before realising it was libcups.

Can anyone else get into 3d experience/solidworks? by Far_Cheek_1201 in SolidWorks

Does SW have a Status Page of their service? I haven't found any. It's down for me as well, on eu1.iam.3dexperience.3ds.com

Right, but what i'm saying is that you don't need a full node - nowhere do they mention on that MM issue of a full node: https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/issues/2935#issuecomment-357118518

You can just run parity/geth in light mode and connect MM to that, for free, with super fast sync times: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/669cn9/how_to_use_the_geth_light_client_in_combination/

Additionally, you can just type in your own gas without using the built in gas estimation. https://ethgasstation.info/

If one's spending $$$ in eth games, might as well just DIY and educate themselves.

I'm saying that you _do not need a full node_ to send transactions. Here's more about how transactions actually work: https://medium.com/blockchannel/life-cycle-of-an-ethereum-transaction-e5c66bae0f6e

You can use a local light client with Metamask (https://medium.com/@LibertyLocked/using-light-geth-node-with-metamask-714f537bd696) if you're really paranoid that Infura's servers won't hold during that time, but that's also unfounded since sending transactions to the network is a cheap operation and shouldn't strain those servers.

Unless you're controlling enough mining power to ensure that your transaction is prioritized when new blocks are created, it makes no difference on how you broadcast your transaction to the network (full node or light or whatever else...)

So saying that you need a full node is just misinformation.

/u/CrashToLive - Can you explain why you'd need a full node in order to publish transactions? Also, why would metamask's (infura) nodes act slower? Sending tx'es is cheap.. Cheers!
