    but you can’t make the distinction between the Russian governments at different times and the nation as a whole.
    

    Nope, I can make that distinction. The difference here is that both in the past and present they’re monsters.

    Nope again… Here’s the real context. We were talking about Russian governments. I stated that I didn’t need to make a distrinction, as it was clear that I was talking about the Russian government both past and present as I then outlined several issues that the government is the only actor in, not the people themselves.

    Try again.

    not legitimate and credible analysis of history and societies.

    And yet you’ve failed to address ANY concern I’ve brought up. Conveniently ignoring every premise I’ve brought up to counter your bullshit.

    Again, as I said, impossible to discuss with most Polish people, you’re not arguing from reason but from nationalism and racism. Good night, and good luck

    Uh huh… That’s absurdly funny as I’m actually a dual citizen. I’ve made no assumptions about you or your statuses, and yet you’ve made plenty about mine. But somehow I’m nationalist and racist. Look in the mirror. All you’ve done is attributed nonsense to me based on limited information, classical “racism”.

    Lets simplify this. Answer either one of these items… Remember both are cited questions.

    So in 1945… what happened to Poland… since they legally succeeded from the USSR they were a free country again right?

    1. How is your graph relevant or meaningful?

    So actually it looks like Russia propaganda in the 1940s thanks to De Gualle’s personal opinions on the matter.

    Edit: Keep in mind I even took the BEST of your comments… You seem to be under some belief that the USSR never committed atrocities and genocide levels of damage to Poland. You’re already wrong.


  • So basically, your whole argument is, “the graph is kinda sus and I don’t trust the source, probably russian propaganda, I hate Russia and I hate Nazis”. Not the strongest rebuttal in my opinion.

    No… and not even close. The graph led me to the study which has obvious flaws… But even IGNORING Those flaws… they themselves put up an argument of why the sentiment could have been this way… and it was because of the French leadership.

    but you can’t make the distinction between the Russian governments at different times and the nation as a whole.

    Nope, I can make that distinction. The difference here is that both in the past and present they’re monsters. During Communism they shit on Poland, and now they threaten Ukraine… our neighbors. I don’t NEED to make the distinction because it’s both cases. Where as with Gemany I have to make the distinction as they’re not currently ruled by the Nazi party.

    Suddenly you only go as far back as WW2

    No… That’s the context of this thread. I kept with the context. The fact that you have to keep shifting goal-posts and cannot continue the discussion under the same pretenses is a huge red flag.

    Never mind that the Bolsheviks granted Poland the legal right to secede in 1917 immediately after the October revolution

    So in 1945… what happened to Poland… since they legally succeeded from the USSR they were a free country again right? https://archive.org/details/polandsholocaust00piot/page/88/mode/2up Or did Russia actually completely fuck Poland (again) by undermining it’s legitimacy? Removing all previous influences and pulled them into the Soviet Union. Going so far as to kill thousands for no fucking reason other than they weren’t communist.

    It’s somehow all the fault of Russians after all, isn’t it?

    Nah, that just historic revisionism that pro-Russian people spout all the time. You seem to love changing time-frames all the time. So here… let’s end this stupidity.

    Which time do you want to talk about how Russia tried to fuck Poland? I’ve traced my roots back to the 1500s… I can possibly talk about a number of these wars.

    But it’s a general trend that Russia goes out of it’s way to Fuck the Polish people. Yet somehow this is Russophobia! Yeah get out of here.



  • Ah yes I forget, my family’s lived experience isn’t real because some jerkwad on lemmy said so. The source of a removed comment on reddit proved otherwise! You’ve converted me, the stories, written history, oral stories that I’ve recorded for my own records/kids/history must all be wrong. Literal hours of first hand accounts and hundreds of pages of documented familial history must be tainted and not an accurate account of the glorious USSR reign. Fuck… I better delete my grandfathers phone number. It must be getting answered by some deepfake AI voice…

    Nothing about their comment outlined that they didn’t know how to use it. But that they never did use it.

    Nothing about their comment eludes to any fact that they’re embarrassed at all. They posted it publicly and directly with not reservation which is the opposite of “embarrassed”.

    They didn’t blame anyone for anything related to the iron itself. But for shallow intentions if they care at all about the clothes that they wear. Which I can understand and agree with to some extent.

    You on the other hand… You’re a jackass. Lots of insinuations, lots of assumptions. Just to put down some random person on the internet for not wanting a fucking iron that probably was the 20$ special at wally world.


  • Nope. There is an industry standard way of measuring latency, and it’s measured at the halfway point of drawing the image.

    No. And if you want to actually provide a link to your “industry standard” feel free to, just make sure that your “standard” actually can be applied to a CRT first.

    You can literally focus the CRT to only show one pixel (more accurately beam width) worth of value. And that pixel would be updated many thousands of times a second (literally constant… since it’s analog).

    If you’re going to define latency as “drawing the image” (by any part of the metric) then a CRT can draw a single “pixel” worth of value 1000s of times a second… probably more. Where your standard 60hz panel can only do 1/60th a second… (or even the highest LCDs at 1/365).

    If there is a frame to draw and that frame is being processed, then yes. You’re right. Measuring at the middle will yield a delay. But this isn’t how all games/operations work for devices in all of history. There are many applications where data being sent to the display is literally read from memory nanoseconds prior. CRTs have NO processing delay that LCDs do have.

    Further points of failure in your post. CRTs are not all “NTSC” standard (Virtually every computer monitor for instance). There’s plenty of CRTs that can push much higher than the NTSC standard specifies.

    Here’s an example from a bog standard monitor I had a long time ago… https://www.manualslib.com/products/Sony-Trinitron-Cpd-E430-364427.html

    800 x 600/155 Hz
    1024 x 768/121 Hz
    1280 x 1024/91 Hz
    1600 x 1200/78 Hz

    So on a 60hz LCD will always be 0.016 to do the whole image. Regardless of it’s resolution being displayed. Not so on the CRT… Higher performance CRTs can draw more “pixels” per second. and when you lower the amount of lines you want it to display the full frame draw times go down substantially. There’s a lot of ways to define these things, that your simplistic view doesn’t account for. The reality is though, it’s possible if you skip the idea of a “frame” that the time from input to the time of display on the CRT monitor is lower simply because there’s no processing occurring here, your limit is physics of the materials you build the monitor out of. Not some chips capability to decode a frame. thus… No latency.

    Not frametime. Not FPS. Not Hz. Latency is NONE of those things, otherwise we wouldn’t have those other terms and would have strictly used “latency” instead.

    And a wonderful example of this is the commodor64 tape loading screens. https://youtube.com/watch?v=Swd2qFZz98U

    Those lines/colors are drawn straight from memory without the concept of a frame. There is no latency here. Many scene demos abused this function to achieve really wild affects as well. Your LCD cannot do that, those demos don’t function correctly on LCDs…

    Lightguns are a perfect example of how this can be leveraged (which is completely impossible on an LCD as well).

    Specifically scroll down to the Sega section. https://www.retrorgb.com/yes-you-can-use-lightguns-on-lcds-sometimes.html

    By timing the click of the lightgun input to which pixel is currently being drawn by the frame to take that as input for the gun. That requires minimal latency to do. LCDs cant do that.

    Ultimately people like you are trying to redefine what latency is that flies in the face of actual history that shows us there is a distinct difference that has historically mattered and even applications of that latency that CANNOT be what you’re claiming it to be.

    https://yt.saik0.com/watch?v=llGzvCaw62Y#player-container

    can you tell me why the LCD on the right is ALWAYS behind? And why it will ALWAYS be the case that it will not work, regardless of how fast the LCD panel is? The reason you’re going to come to is that it’s processing delay. Which didn’t exist on CRTs. That’s “LATENCY”.

    When talking about retro consoles, we’re limited by the hardware feeding the display, and the frame can’t start drawing until the console has transmitted everything.

    This is where you’re completely wrong. CRTs don’t know the concept of a frame. It draws the input that it gets. Period. There’s no buffer… there’s no where to hold onto anything that is being transmitted. It’s literally just spewing electrons at the phosphors.

    Edit: typo

    Edit2: to expound on the LCD vs CRT thing with light guns. CRTs drawn the “frame” as it’s received… so as it gets the voltage it varies that voltage on the electron gun itself, which means that when the Sega console in this case sets the video buffer to the white value for a coordinate and displays it, it knows exactly which pixel is currently being modified. The LCD will take the input, store it in a buffer until it gets the full frame. Then display. The Sega doesn’t know when that frame will actually be displayed as there’s other shit between it and the display mechanism doing stuff. There is an innate delay that MUST occur on the LCD that simply doesn’t on the CRT. That’s the latency.







  • Nah, that’d be mean. It isn’t “simple” by any stretch. It’s an aggregation of a lot of hours put into it. What’s fun is that when it gets that big you start putting tools together to do a lot of the work/diagnosing for you. A good chunk of those tools have made it into production for my companies too.

    LibreNMS to tell me what died when… Wazuh to monitor most of the security aspects of it all. I have a gitea instance with my own repos for scripts when it comes maintenance time. Centralized stuff and a cron stub on the containers/vms can mean you update all your stuff in one go


  • 40 ssds as my osds… 5 hosts… all nodes are all functions (monitor/manager/metadataservers), if I added more servers I would not add any more of those… (which I do have 3 more servers for “parts”/spares… but could turn them on too if I really wanted to.

    2x 40gbps networking for each server.

    Since upstream internet is only 8gbps I let some vms use that bandwidth too… but that doesn’t eat into enough to starve Ceph at all. There’s 2x1gbps for all the normal internet facing services (which also acts as an innate rate limiter for those services).
