do you have SSH access?

oh thats weird

can you show the error that you got when you used java 21?

jovial tide
#

It was the same error

#

The version number didn't change either

latent bloom
#

what version did you set java to in your control panel?

#

it seems it doesnt match the actual server jar

jovial tide
#

Oh, you can do that?

yea it needs to match your server jar, if you can't change it at least you should be able to view it

Other that that, a domain is relatively inexpensive, like $10 a year.

tbh, I was thinking the vpn route, but I wasn't sure which one to use

arctic yarrow
#

Don't go with godaddy tho. Assholes removed DDNS ability without spending $200/mo

(specifically for domains)

#

I don't know any good free vpn providers tho

lost fossil
brave field
#

Minecraft supports IPv6, so you can rotate addresses out if your ISP give you a block

#

A domain with SRV records still resolves to your public IP

#

But DDOS protection... some free VPS tier and a reverse proxy maybe?

Is it dumb of me to consider taking a dremel to my case to fit a graphics card?

Just considering buying a gpu and dremeling if it doesn't fit

exotic patrol

they're both pretty close

but if say transcend is slightly less reliable

rapid lake
#

Alright

#

They’re both the same price so

#

Same usb gen and capacity aswell but I need it for something that I can’t afford to lose over a bad hdd

#

I’ve been having an issue with my PC randomly shutting off as of lately

#

And looking in MSI afterburner the CPU temp is acting really strange, randomly spiking even on idle, or when I open something it’ll go from 30-40 to 65-70 in less than a second

#

So I’m wondering if the temp sensor could be faulty and causing it to think it’s overheating therefore shutting off?

#

I’ve tested my ram and also tried removing the GPU and changed the PSU

#

There’s just the CPU, mobo, and ssd left

#

Any way I can test my CPU and see if it’s having issues?

sterile cliff
#

hmmm

#

i would suggest a stress test

#

buttt its a stress test

#

meaning it tests the cpu's limits

This can also mean that your paste application is not good or your cooler is not mounted correctly because it's not cooling all the cores.

rapid lake
#

Thermal paste hasn’t been changed in many years

cold elbow
#

Also the reason why temperature spikes is because the core is getting a sudden rise in voltage to clock the highest

rapid lake
#

I’m thinking of installing windows on my external hard drive to see if it’s the ssd that’s doing this but yeah I’ll run a stress test on the cpu first

cold elbow
#

Did you try to do combined stress test while monitoring temperatures?

rapid lake
#

And maybe get some thermal paste

rapid lake
cold elbow
#

Nope

#

You can probably do it with furmark

velvet wyvern
#

Why don't you just change the thermal paste first to rule that out?

It has gpu and cpu burners

exotic patrol
# rapid lake What's the % operator in C

result = a % b;
where a is the dividend and b is the divisor and it's just the remainder of what's left or to cycle

here's a small snippet of what it looks like

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int totalPlayers = 10;
    int teams = 3;

    for (int i = 1; i <= totalPlayers; i++) {
        printf("Player %d is assigned to Team %d\n", i, (i % teams) + 1);
    }

    return 0;

And this program does what exactly

exotic patrol
rapid lake
#

I'm still not familiar with the syntax, what's %d

#

Ohhh nvm

#

I see what it does

exotic patrol
# rapid lake I'm still not familiar with the syntax, what's `%d`

It specifies the format for an integer or to print it

Like

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int num = 68;
    printf("The number is %d\n", num);
    return 0;
}

Output would be The number is 68

Scanning it would look like

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int number;
    printf("Enter a number: ");
    scanf("%d", &number);
    printf("You chose number %d now .\n", number);
    return 0;
}
#

ye

rapid lake
#

what if I don't specify it

#

Does it just assume it's a string

#

or gives an error

exotic patrol
#

error

#

It doesn't really assume

rapid lake
#

As in: printf("The number is", num)

#

mkay

#

my cpu is running too hot all of a sudden after power supply swap

#

My power supply went out and i changed it previously i had a fully modular power supply that was 1000watts but after it quit working i swapped it out for a 600 watt power supply which is a semi modular power supply and before on the 1000watt power supply i was able to plug in 1 and a half slots or (12pins) for my cpu now with the 600 watt semi modular power supply im only able to plug in 1 (8)pins would this be the reason for the cpu running so hot because it cant get enough power possibly?

brave field
#

@proven tangle shouldn't be

#

Is your PSU's fan facing the inside of the case? There's a chance this smaller one runs hotter and is dumping heat at your CPU cooler. Shouldn't be a large difference unless your case is an oven though

#

@rapid lake Did you run the Intellisense config command? Does it still compile if you ignore the Intellisense error?

#

Also, are any other components running hotter than expected?

a programming book doesn't teach you program design

a: a teacher
b: a really strong calculus and linear algebra background

Idk if there’s a simpler way but you can make an array with a, b and c, which would be in position 0, 1 and 2 then just have the program select a random number from 0-2 and make its content in the array the winner

There’s a function in python that chooses a random number iirc

With your Steam API key, someone can monitor your account activity, create or cancel trade offers, and potentially redirect your in-game items to their own account, leading to theft of valuable items. It's crucial to keep your API key private to prevent unauthorized access.

I was at a mall yesterday so I decided to check out a random tech store

I don't think this price makes any sense

That's like 2800 usd

For what

#

A 4070?

#

And it's the loser laptop variant

twin badger
#

Then again, i know that 40 series has gone up in price

#

after tha 50 series turned out to be a bit of a disappointment + availability issues + the fact that they discontinued 40 series already

exotic patrol
#

yep it's a disaster

#

But I don't don't that's the main reason

twin badger
#

I think a lot of us are still on 30 series or older cards purely because of how expensive these newer options are

twin badger
exotic patrol

It doesn't even have a GPU why are surfaces so expensive

And i DO think it has something to do with what i mentioned

tho around 900 usd for that

Yea but they can now excuse it with "jUsT eNaBLe fRamEgEn"

even though these cards can probably not even reach 60 with RT on to begin with

Idk, perhaps they can use the excuse of older games running fine with RT on

#

Are there people who actually use Ray Tracing? I thought it was just a gimmick

twin badger
#

Marketing is a powerful tool

#

I think one game where i used it was Metro Exodus, mostly because the game ran well even with it on, so at that point why not

#

Obviously, if most people are on lower end cards, it really doesn't make sense to care about raytracing

#

But people also often times make up justifications and reasonings to spend more on a GPU

#

To then not even really use those features they overpaid for and thought they needed

@latent bloom I use it every opportunity I can

I think the RTX branding should've focused on the workstation instead of gaming though. Raytracing's been around a long time and Nvidia OptiX was by far the largest development in over a decade

sterile cliff
#

Raytracing can look very nice on some games

#

What i love about it is that through devtools people have been able to make even old games raytracable

#

Such as portal

#

Theres also fan projects for morrowind, half life 2

#

You name it

#

Great games that with raytracing become even cooler to play

cold elbow
#

only that the new portal rtx looks awful

#

removing original art details in favor of showing some reflections is not good

#

up until now I don't recall ever being impressed by a game after enabling ray tracing
I only see slight change and lose half my frames.

Control is a free space on the bingo card

Honestly all i need is that hl2 raytracing port and the morrowind raytracing port

I would happily give a liver for both

Never played it but the gameplay looks cool enough for me to try

It helps that the game looks good without raytracing too

the fact that any raytracing can be done at all in realtime is still incredible

I dont have the CCNA yet bec i paused it to see ERP development

Would you choose a career like a developer that has a higher salary but it requires skills in programming, problem solving and allows remote work. Or pick network engineer that has a bit of barrier of entry and the salary is fixed at times, at the cost of having to be available 24/7
