You are being ignorant.ĩ0% of those actions per minute are hitting ice lance…do you not understand how that isn’t equivalent to say the APM of fire mage for example. M+ and MDI where a fire mage is always present? Sight… This doesn’t even take mythic+ in account. So on average we perform significantly worse than other classes. ![]() You think you proved something on 3 fights, which is less than half the fights lol. Not hard to follow.Īs a frost mage you mostly spam ice lance and instant flurries with a spell that’s 1.7 sec cast time without BL/IV. You said there is very little hardcast…so I responded with 10.1 is almost all hardcasting. But people who like doing pet battles with their mage or just doing dailies or LFR and just parroting the weekly Raid report from wowlogs are just lazy. Never said that people here don’t deserve to make posts here. I can edit and add to my posts whatever I feel like.Īnd now yo are being disingenuous. It is called an evolving conversation, you claimed at the time so many people dont deserve to make post here, I said most of it isn’t about damage.

Logs I already disproved to you and the other person. I have a solution for you: Play melee then.

You and the other mage are literally 2nd and 3rd!!! Dude… why do I even bother… You have 1000s of logs going against what you are claiming, pro players going against what you are saying, alter time disc going against what you are saying, guide writes going against what you are saying…but weirdly try to insinuate that I do not know what im talking about lol. Weird to hop on the “try to insult” train. It actually speaks volumes that you think frost is a high APM spec lol. Hardcasting a frostbolt in to a flurry in to a global gapped double ice lance isn’t fluid.

![]() ![]() Both QNAP’s NetBak Replicator and Synology’s Data Replicator 3 could do both monitored (immediate) and scheduled backups. I’d tried the free ones that Synology and QNAP include with their products awhile back. The real work started when it came time to choose a backup application. And I was able to schedule a once-a-day incremental rsync backup of the QNAP to the Synology without a problem. QNAP’s 3.1.īut once QNAP gets around to issuing 3.2 firmware for its older Marvell-based products, the two will be equal enough. ![]() I probably should have swapped their roles, given the Synology’s higher performance and especially given Synology’s better backup features in its DSM 2.2 OS vs. Since the QNAP was already doing media serving, I decided to make it the primary NAS and use the Synology as an rsync backup target. But I didn’t have either of those on long-term loan from Iomega, while I did have the QNAP TS-109 Pro and a Synology DS109 on hand. But, to date, only Iomega has made the move and added the ability to back up to and from SMB shares to its ix4-200d and ix2-200. I’d been waiting for other NAS vendors to copy the ReadyNAS’ backup tricks, so that I could retire the NV and move to a speedier NAS. But I was just having a hard time breaking away from the NV ’s built-in backup capabilities. I had already moved its SqueezeCenter duties over to an old QNAP TS-109 Pro that I have on long-term loan. And the few backup apps that I’d tried were either too clunky, too slow or both.īut the NV had been acting kind of strange of late and it is pretty slow. I’d come to rely on the NV ’s ultra-flexible built-in backup capability, which can back up pretty much anything to or from anything else. The main thing that caused me to put off making a change was my reluctance to install a backup client on my main Windows-based work machine. But it did the job just fine as a network share that the NV ran scheduled backups to every few hours during each work day. The Linkstation is so old that it doesn’t even have any backup capability. But had I left two drives in and configured them in a single RAID 1 volume. Since my storage needs are under 100 GB (no, that’s not a typo!), I could easily have dropped down to a single 250 GB Seagate 7200.8 drive in the NV . But after a drive died on me, I decided to simplify and switch over to standard RAID. ![]() I originally started out with the NV in XRAID2. (See Smart SOHOs Don’t Do RAID.)īut here I was, using an aging NETGEAR ReadyNAS NV in RAID 1 as my main NAS and backing up to an even older Buffalo HD-H120LAN LinkStation. I’ve long been an advocate of avoiding RAID if possible and backing up one NAS to another for data security. But this past weekend, I finally made long-planned changes in the backup routine here at SmallNetBuilder.

Lupo were not able to attend the event, even though Fortnite's Creative Director, Donald Mustard, infamously gave him a shout-out during the event. This caused players to flood to the Fortnite servers all at one time, and as a result some players were not able to attend the event even after playing the game for hours prior. Player's may recall the Star Wars preview event that took place during Fortnite's Chapter 2 Season 1 which was the last one-time-only event, but it did not have limited seating. In addition to a special sneak preview, the players who attended the event would receive a limited edition Tie-Fighter glider. The most recent events have been a lot smoother in terms of server performance, but by reducing the number of players even more it's likely Epic Games is trying to limit the risk of server overload as much as possible. Or, in the case of Fortnite's Travis Scott concert, the same scripted event took place multiple different times for players on different servers. Recently, Fortnite events have taken place over several days allowing players in different time zones and in different regions of the world the chance to enjoy an event.

Indeed, the initial viruses re-organized the layout of the sections, or overrode the initial portion of a section in order to jump to the very end of the file where malicious code was located-only going back to resume execution of the original code. Early heuristic engines were based on dividing the binary into different sections: data section, code section (in a legitimate binary, it usually starts always from the same location). The first product with a heuristic engine resembling modern ones was F-PROT in 1991. However, the kind of heuristic used by early AV engines was totally different from those used today. In his O'Reilly book, Malicious Mobile Code: Virus Protection for Windows, Roger Grimes described Flushot Plus as "the first holistic program to fight malicious mobile code (MMC)." įinally, at the end of 1987, the first two heuristic antivirus utilities were released: Flushot Plus by Ross Greenberg and Anti4us by Erwin Lanting. ![]() In 1987, Fred Cohen wrote that there is no algorithm that can perfectly detect all possible computer viruses.

However, as internet usage became common, viruses began to spread online. During this time, virus checkers essentially had to check executable files and the boot sectors of floppy disks and hard disks. Antivirus software came into use, but was updated relatively infrequently. īefore internet connectivity was widespread, computer viruses were typically spread by infected floppy disks. That changed when more and more programmers became acquainted with computer virus programming and created viruses that manipulated or even destroyed data on infected computers. Most of the computer viruses written in the early and mid-1980s were limited to self-reproduction and had no specific damage routine built into the code. From then, the number of viruses has grown exponentially. The first IBM PC compatible "in the wild" computer virus, and one of the first real widespread infections, was " Brain" in 1986. Cohen used the term "computer virus" to describe programs that: "affect other computer programs by modifying them in such a way as to include a (possibly evolved) copy of itself." (note that a more recent definition of computer virus has been given by the Hungarian security researcher Péter Szőr: "a code that recursively replicates a possibly evolved copy of itself"). In 1983, the term "computer virus" was coined by Fred Cohen in one of the first ever published academic papers on computer viruses. The first known that appeared "in the wild" was " Elk Cloner", in 1981, which infected Apple II computers. The Creeper virus was followed by several other viruses. Some people consider "The Reaper" the first antivirus software ever written – it may be the case, but it is important to note that the Reaper was actually a virus itself specifically designed to remove the Creeper virus. The Creeper virus was eventually deleted by a program created by Ray Tomlinson and known as " The Reaper". This computer virus infected Digital Equipment Corporation's ( DEC) PDP-10 mainframe computers running the TENEX operating system.
