Q: Random lag spikes of 300-500ms - Any suggestions?

For the last few weeks I've been getting these infuriating lag spikes of between 300-500ms pretty much every 2-5mins which is so annoying and makes me miss key plays and has cost my death countless times. It's actually managed to get worse the last few days, where I see the reconnecting bar and I...

RedRiderX

@Yuuki Oh my

Yuuki

@RedRiderX In my cursory overview, it's just a business frontpage.

Unionhawk

Goddammit it doesn't help that both johns are green

DAMN YOU @John

STOP HAVING SIMILARLY COLORED IDENTICONS

Yuuki

12:07 AM

Nothing very complicated, just a bunch of text and images.

RedRiderX

@Yuuki so... 1 page? 10, 100?

two bugs

They should switch to the unicorn gravatars

Those were great

Yuuki

I'd say... roughly 20?

RedRiderX

Ah I see

Dragonrage

@Unionhawk and names

RedRiderX

12:08 AM

@Yuuki Would you describe their budget as $, $$, or $$$?

I'm just wondering what the possible limitations of the hosting environment might be.

Yuuki

@RedRiderX $, maybe? I don't have a very good idea of their budget.

RedRiderX

If you are stuck with php and it's a small to medium site you could use grabaperch.com

You have to pay a small amount but I've heard good things

Very flexable

But nothing can match the plug-and-play promise of Wordpress for making 80% normal sites

Though if there is something like ecom involved it may outstrip Perch's capabilities.

Yuuki

I'm just hitting a small road bump with Wordpress. It's really minor, but I'm trying to figure out where to change the site url.

RedRiderX

site options

Yuuki

Since I have to use a different port number (local installation) and it keeps redirecting me to port 80 when I try to log in.

RedRiderX

12:12 AM

If you can't access that then the db

@Yuuki Ah

Local servers are a whole other bag of hammers

Yuuki

Well, theirs isn't local. I just did a local installation to mess around with it.

So I know what to do to migrate their site.

I guess I could register a wordpress.com site.

RedRiderX

If you are comfortable with vms I recommend a local vm server: sitepoint.com/how-to-build-a-speedy-wordpress-sandbox-vm

@Yuuki Yeah totally for dev I understand that

@Yuuki If the final product will be the most basic thing

No plugins or (much) custom stuff allowed there

Just blogging all day everyday

Yuuki

That's the other reason I wasn't sure about Wordpress. Because their site isn't a blog even in the loosest sense of the word.

Doesn't even have a "news" section.

RedRiderX

Yes but that doesn't matter as much these days

Pages are just posts arranged differently

Unionhawk

I just have to remember that jtg is lime

@Yuuki Is this in reference to a real game? If so, I want to play it.

Dragonrage

Yuuki

@MBraedley Magic: The Gathering, I think.

So my options are coat and grill in below freezing or do anything else

It'd take time way from Fire Emblem.

Almost done with Ch10. I'm having to take it super slow

@Sterno So you can not play it for more than five minutes ever?

Sterno

I would play 6 minutes just to make you a liar!

Frank

1:58 AM

It doesn't invalidate my point, though.

Would you play it enough to justify the purchase?

You might be better off just chucking that money into an education fund for Skydrift.

Sterno

I already chuck lots of money into that. Tax breaks, baby!

Frank

Or maybe save it up to build a kickass theater room in Skydrift's room once she moves out.

Frank

2:32 AM

I haven't really been an avid Pokemon fan for a while, though.

@TrentHawkins knows more than me.

Trent Hawkins

@RavenDreamer nope, need gen 5.

Raven Dreamer

I think I figured that. But I saw you were active, so I asked you first.

@TrentHawkins But pokemon bank?

Frank

Pinging me is equivalent to pinging @TrentHawkins, more or less.

Yuuki

@RavenDreamer Do you have Black/White?

@RavenDreamer It's a new app GameFreak released that's supposedly going to be used to port your Pokemon to all future versions.

Trent Hawkins

@RavenDreamer relevant section of bulbapedia pokebank will only transfer from gen 5.

Raven Dreamer

2:35 AM

@Yuuki I know what it is, wondering if it works with gen 4

Yuuki

@RavenDreamer Nope, only Black/White and on, I think.

Which is Gen 5.

Raven Dreamer

Can one go from Gen 4 to Gen 5?

Yuuki

Yes.

Raven Dreamer

@TrentHawkins And soon gen 1, oddly.

Unionhawk

ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY GO FROM GEN 4 TO GEN-- oh apparently yes

@RavenDreamer heh

Yuuki

2:36 AM

@RavenDreamer Yeah, Red/Blue/Yellow are out on Virtual Console.

Raven Dreamer

@Yuuki Monster Hunter Hype?

Unionhawk

Man now I want that

Dammit

Yuuki

That was literally just this week.

@RavenDreamer HELL YES.

Unionhawk

I don't have a charger for my 3ds here

Yuuki

OH FUCKING HELLS YES.

Unionhawk

2:37 AM

and I have 2 assignments due tomorrow and another monday

Raven Dreamer

@Yuuki Did they announce a G-rank version of the game, or just localized?

Unionhawk

dammit

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Yuuki

@RavenDreamer Just localized.

Raven Dreamer

I want my Thunder Brachydios subspecies D:

Yuuki

@RavenDreamer I think it's in the game.

Trent Hawkins

2:38 AM

Also, to transfer from gen 5 there's a seperate 3ds app that transfers from black(2)/white(2) to the bank. It's an annoying process.

Raven Dreamer

@TrentHawkins Oof. This is a lot of work to get my gen 3 mew to my friend's gen 6 game.

...or rescue my hacked, perfect IV shiny Absol

Haha.

Unionhawk

Wait, is DP gen-- oh right you can do gen 3 transfer to DP

Raven Dreamer

Yup!

Stood in line at Toys R Us to get a mew on Emerald way back longback.

Yuuki

Named variants are in MHX.

No "Thunder Brachy" though.

Raven Dreamer

...Right. I was implying my next chance for one would be in the next MH game. Which was not announced today.

Yuuki

2:42 AM

Raging Brachy is already a nightmare, I'm not sure if any variant or subspecies could top that eldritch abomination.

Trent Hawkins

@RavenDreamer ehhh... depending on how well it was hacked; it might not transfer.

Raven Dreamer

@TrentHawkins I received it in a trade.

That's the extent of what I know.

shrug

Trent Hawkins

Like I said, might not transfer - there's some hack detection in the transfer app/bank. It's not perfect - some stuff gets through, but it does detect some stuff.

Raven Dreamer

Did Emerald have global trade?

Probably not.

Trent Hawkins

@RavenDreamer pretty sure global trade was new in gen 4

Raven Dreamer

2:50 AM

That sounds right.

Frank

Raven Dreamer

@Frank Honestly, what's getting me is the lack of HP growths on everybody.

So easy for folks to get 1 shot if they're in the wrong spot on turn end.

Frank

@RavenDreamer That's just the RNG screwing you over. Not much you can do about that.

Yuuki

Apparently, a new secret cow level has been added to Diablo 3.

Frank

3:04 AM

Xander kicked Rinkah's ass in one turn on Chapter 12 Birthright for me.

Raven Dreamer

@Frank Well, the HP growths are much lower than in awakening.

See: Nowi's > 100% hp growth

Ryouma is pretty bad in Conquest's chapter 12, actually, haha.

But more importantly

my god, the ninjas.

Ninjas, everywhere.

Frank

Overall, the game is less focused on building broken units, and more about learning the tactical aspects.

Raven Dreamer

Yeah. I like that.

Frank

Attack stance and defense stance, primarily.

Raven Dreamer

The CPU is annoyingly good at using attack stance in particular.

Though I do sorta wish that two units, both in guard stance, the guard units fought each other.

Right now, guard stance > attack stance a lot, because it completely negates attack stance AND ALSO increases stats / invulnerability every so often.

Though the worst bit was when Kaze crit with a 4% chance, killing the unit on his first attack, so the guard stance defense wasn't ready and he died to the next hit. :|

Frank

3:11 AM

@RavenDreamer Guard stance is generally better, but you're giving up an additional attack per turn for it.

So that's where the balance comes in.

Basically, a general fallacy of believing that if someone you're at bad terms with opposes someone (or some organisation), the latter have to be doing something right.
