One of Elden Ring's top sleuths has already unmasked its new DLC characters

FromSoftware leaker Zullie the Witch has unveiled detailed close-ups of the two new NPCs introduced in Elden Ring's Tarnished Edition DLC. Knight Leontiel, reminiscent of Dark Souls 2's Lucatiel, is depicted with an HD remaster of her classic conquistador armor and swift greatsword. Upon removing her mask, Leontiel bears a striking resemblance to Lucatiel, complete with a burning scar over her left eye, mirroring the hollowing rot Lucatiel endured in Dark Souls 2.

Noble Broken Mask, on the other hand, may serve as a glimpse of Goldmask's true appearance. While Goldmask's digital model possesses a face, it appears to be a placeholder, whereas Broken Mask showcases an austere, pinched face with striking pale gold eyes, reminiscent of the Elden Ring's typically obscured Elden followers. Zullie offers comprehensive character creation details for both NPCs, enabling players to recreate them as their own.

This isn't Zullie's first foray into revealing Elden Ring's NPCs, as she has previously dissected the characters from Shadow of the Erdtree and Dark Souls 3. With the Tarnished Edition's release, the game's servers are expected to see increased activity in the coming weeks, offering players more opportunities to engage with the new content.

What a Linux container really is (it's not a VM)

Right now, on your machine, a process is being lied to . It thinks it's alone on the computer. It thinks it owns the whole filesystem. It thinks its process ID is 1 . None of that is true.

  • Linux container is not a virtual machine, but a process on the same kernel
  • Namespaces and control groups manage process view and resource utilization
  • Docker creates containers by unpacking image, applying namespaces, cgroups, and executing process

Six tests that passed for the wrong reason

My backup script told me the restore was verified. It restored ten tables with zero rows in every one, checked the schema, and printed VERIFIED.

  • Backup script reported successful restoration of ten tables with no rows
  • Stability gate flawed, recent-quiet rule mislabeled
  • Health-check scenario maintained low volume that never existed
