packetcat in your ASN @packetcat@tenforward.social

what a weird issue, I guess it made me find a edge case issue in my playbook and its now more reliable now so that's good

anyways I changed my playbook to use the ansible_nodename value instead of ansible_fqdn and that works more reliably since that is set in my Ansible hosts file and matches what I use as hostname

thing is socket.getfqdn() is wrong but socket.gethostname() is getting the correct value

so troubleshooting a Ansible related issue

ansible_fqdn is the wrong value for a host and I can't find where exactly python is picking that up from

socket.getfqdn() is supposedly where Ansible gets that value and it is indeed returning a old hostname that isn't set anymore

no it isn't in /etc/hosts and hostname is set correctly

my options in Toronto are not looking too promising tbh

I'm looking at options for colocating a router, switch and a 1U server in either USA or Canada. Toronto preferably but I'm open to something like Chicago/Seattle.

I'll be requiring cross connects to a meet me room of some kind so I can buy transit.

I have a ASN and IP space.

Advice/suggestions/recommendations welcome, I'm new to the colocation side of things.

tbh, I really wanna know why I'm being GPU bound in this game and especially why it doesn't change across settings presets

gonna need the Digital Foundry analysis of the PC version for this one

as for CPU utilization, about 50% across all my cores, this game is on Ubisoft's Anvil engine and uses multiple cores quite well

its interesting because going from ultra high down to high preset didn't change anything about GPU usage in the benchmarks, utilization was steady at 95% throughout the running time of the benchmark

so started Assassin's Creed Valhalla this morning

performance characteristics on my PC are...interesting

running at 1440p on a i7-8086K and a 2080Ti, I am GPU bound at graphics presets - ultra high, very high, high and also adaptive

I am playing with adaptive quality with a target of 60FPS

another thing - the FPS limit option in settings does absolutely nothing, the game doesn't register the option change

the screenshot here is the benchmark results with adaptive quality turned on

anyways, watch Laura's Access-Ability videos, they cover these new consoles and also other accessibility in games topics

Microsoft seems quite ahead when it comes to accessibility on their game consoles

Adaptive controller, leaving last gen controllers usable, better high contrast options, co-pilot mode, force mono audio mode

Laura also did a accessibility video for the Xbox Series consoles:
