26.9% performance gain over the 7800X3D

wow! did they figure out why?

Their mission is committing to provide “universal access to all knowledge”.

It’s rather depressing that people are attacking such a site. They might have even made a bit of coin if they responsibly reported it.

Surprise surprise when your IT budget is perpetually anemic.

What are your thoughts on the alternative path the article talks about “…zeroconf, mDNS, or DNS-SD advertisements”?

So it depends. For example some legacy apple stuff had a bad DHCP implementation where it would try to hold onto an IP address it had before.

When there’s one DHCP server with a reserved ip it won’t assign that ip to the wrong device. (Unless you’re running some buggy software that takes your configuration as suggestions)

Where the advice to set it anyways comes from scenarios where that DHCP server goes down for long enough that everyone starts self assigning addresses. It’s a real hassle to find the correct system when that happens.

I forgot you could use SSH port redirection. By having them connect to your ssh server. Just understand that you need to configure it in a safe way to avoid someone using the credentials incorrectly.

See the section called “Exposing service running in localhost of a server behind NAT to the internet”

Any luck?

Ah yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a double NAT going on and needs to put the ISP provided modem into bridge mode.

Perhaps change who’s hosting it? Since you’re in IT you probably have a computer capable of it?

Alternatively you could host a wire guard endpoint have them connect to you that way. But configuring that is a pain on Windows.

The problem is most likely on the host’s end. They need to configure port forwarding for the game.

If you’re connecting over the internet confirm you’re connecting to their WAN IP address.

There is a rare edge case that comes to mind. In server.properties look for use-native-transport and try setting it to false on the host.

Alternatively I would suggest checking if you and the host support ipv6 and use that. It’ll help avoid the problems you’re experiencing with NAT.

Avoiding spam filters and ISP blocks are a common issue with self hosted email.

Ideally you’ll have a mature domain, dkim configured and an IP that’s not blacklisted on a network that allows email traffic.

OVH offers pretty cheap email hosting if you just want a turn key solution.

Otherwise if you want your home lab to work this way you may need to configure something akin to a forward proxy on a VPS to act as a gateway for your homelab.

This could be achieved using wireguard and iptables. By routing the email traffic to your homelab.

Has anyone seen the anti AI art where people draw 3d shapes in faint lines over the real art.

I can’t find a good example of it

I’d suggest using OVH. https://help.ovhcloud.com/csm/en-ie-dns-dynhost?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0051641

Depending on your country you may need to use ovh canada

Syncthing like others suggested is probably the way to go.

But if you want more options you can do a lot with WebDAV. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-webdav-access-with-apache-on-ubuntu-18-04

Actual Cannibal Shia Labeouf Mod for L4D2 is essential.

So many people just open a game and play it, ignoring the settings.

The default controls in StarCraft 2 set you up for failure in custom games. Turning off simple command card and allowing the selection of enemy units helps a ton.

When playing interactive story games like until dawn, try to pick up everything in each room before continuing. Be nice to the animals!

Breath of the wild is more fun if you do the major dungeons in reverse order.

When playing with emulators let the game go through its idle intro card and listen carefully to the sound if it distorts or pops then your game is likely to be unstable try changing more options. Such as enabling interpreter mode for the audio.

When playing Super Mario World, don’t be afraid to explore the stages esp the boo mansions.

When a game offers Vulkan/dx12 mode, try it.

The Nintendo switch allows you to control the MTU of the wifi connection, adjusting this can help in poor connectivity situations.

Changing your DNS to a public provider such as Quad9 can help.

Investigating if you can enable ipv6 on your network can offer you some boons.

Confirming port forwarding is working for your games will help immensely in games that rely on that. (Also resolve any double NAT issues)

Do not attempt to game on a wifi repeater, only sadness follows.

Unless you are playing fallout 3 or New Vegas on era correct hardware there are mods to make it more stable.

Everyone needs to play hat in time.

Hey I just had another thought. Do you have your ISP provided router in bridge mode? That would help if you’re not using it for anything else.

If your lan devices only have a fe80, your clients are not receiving a proper router advertisement.

Which routes and firewall rules should I be checking?

Since the OPNsense device is getting a ipv6 address and is able to ping ipv6 devices on the internet.

It sounds like you don’t have ipv6 configured for the LAN. Try enabling “Assisted” mode.

https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/radvd.html

Confirm the ipv6 addresses your clients in the LAN are being assigned an ipv6 address within the scope of what your ISP is assigning.

If you are check default routes and firewall rules.

If you aren’t, investigate “router advertisement”.

I like that idea.

I’d suggest OVH or Digital Ocean.

If you think a DDoS attack is possible I’d suggest azure for that.

Sounds like an issue with your registrar more so than the domain authority?

Do you have any information to distinguish that?

Does anyone here know if they are the same entity?

This is probably a bit extreme. I think it has a way to tie into your phone’s calendar too.

But you could use redmine and create tickets and reoccuring tasks.
