What do you think the Great Filter is?

The Great Filter is the idea that, in the development of life from the earliest stages of abiogenesis to reaching the highest levels of development on the Kardashev scale, there is a barrier to development that makes detectable extraterrestrial life exceedingly rare. The Great Filter is one possible resolution of the Fermi...

Easily done with licences. Corpo is scared of licensing.

Credit and release any changes you made to it. No freeloading.

They have a second probe in the shop to test. Thankfully.

Maybe the materials can be recycled. Likely out of scope for Ukraine at the moment.

Yeah caffeine when tired already is the best way to make my body go "ok, I sleep now, lie me down".

Qualified experts of Lemmy, do people believe you when you answer questions in your field?

The internet has made a lot of people armchair experts happy to offer their perspective with a degree of certainty, without doing the work to identify gaps in their knowledge. Often the mark of genuine expertise is knowing the limitations of your knowledge....

I work in IT and security, where everyone is an expert. Couple that with my inability to tell half-thruths about complex subjects I have incomplete info about, and I come out as incompetent. Yay.

I strive to be. Not enough time for everything.

My box sits in my closet, so can't really help much with docker or vm. But I use sunshine server with moonlight client. Keep in mind you can't fight latency that comes from distance between server and client. I can use 4/5G for turn based or active pause games but wouldn't try anything real time. On cable my ping is under ms, enough to play shooters as badly as I do these days.

I use AMD for CPU and GPU, and wouldn't try nvidia if using Linux as sever.

I did use to run a VM in xenserver/xcp-ng and passthrough gpu with a mock hdmi screen plug. A windows 10 vm, ran very well bar pretty crap CPU but I did get around 30fps in 1080p tarkov, sometimes more with amd upscalling. Back then I was using parsec, but found sunshine and moonlight works better for me.

I should also mention I never tried to support multiple users. You can probably play "local" multiplayer with both parsec and moonlight, but any setup that shares one GPU will require some vgpu proprietary fuckery, so easiest is to buy a PC with multiple gpus and assign one to each VM directly.

I use a 2016 Asus Zenbook with integrated intel gpu.

The performance is comparable. The only thing that's different is latency, obviously, although it's fairly negligible on LAN, and encoding/decoding sometimes createa artifacts and smudges, but it's better at higher bandwidth.

I'm both impressed and bemused why they'd use bash.

If you're the only user and just want it working without much fuss, use a single db instance and forget about it. Less to maintain leads to better maintenance, if performance isn't more important.

It's fairly straightforward to migrate a db to a new postgres instance, so you're not shooting yourself in a future foot if you change your mind.

Use PGTune to get as much as you can out of it and adjust if circumstances change.

In a hobby it's easy to get carried away into doing things according to "best practices" when it's not really the point.

I've done a lot of redundant boilerplate stuff in my homelab, and I justify it by "learnding". It's mostly perfectionism I don't have time and energy for anymore.
