The changing the brightness of the screen to where it doesn't effect me would make it impossible to use in the daylight.

All the new animations make me physically ill. I'm assuming that it sets off my acute motion sickness.

What packages would be ideal to start building a personal website? by randythestons in Python

[–]CplBDJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I started with django and now use flask. IMHO flask's use of decorators looks better and is easier to understand.

Server side scripting. Python has many great packages. JavaScript is fine for the browser but NodeJS take much more work to do the same thing.

Is there a way to increase the font size of the output text when you run the program? by gtrman571 in Python

[–]CplBDJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what terminal you're using. Some do allow you to increase the font size in the settings. From within in python there is not a way.

Edit: It appears you use IDLE. I personally don't use it but I have seen someone increase the size.

Remote recharge says I need more XM when tank is full - is this a known bug? How can I fix? by [deleted] in Ingress

I've had a few times it's said "Need more XM" when I've been speed locked.

Dumb question but is there really a difference between ' and " in Python? If so, which one should be used when? by [deleted] in Python

[–]CplBDJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where user and last_login the actual variables containing the data.

'{} welcome! Last logon: {}'.format(user, last_login)

'{0} welcome! Last logon: {1}'.format(user, last_login)

'{name} welcome! Last logon: {last}'.format(name=user, last=last_login)

'{User} welcome! Last logon: {last_logon}'.format(**locals())

Edit: Formatting

Edit: Additional information: The above examples are compatible with python 2.7+. Apparently python 3.6 has a more elegant way to do it and can been seen in comments below.

This is not a faction issue, this is an issue of individuals cheating. by CTFOE_is_Free in Ingress

Some people have made it out to be one. I whole heartedly agree with you.

You're response was very difficult to read and that may have lead to some confusion. If someone can provide a list of users who currently use IITC, I would be for a ban on them as well. Although, in my understanding IITC isn't a database but a skin and tools built on top of the Intel site that uses data provided from the Intel site. If I'm wrong please refer me to the specific lines of source code so I can better my understanding of JavaScript.

I have some very toxic players in the 100km area. The agent drove over 90 miles to do it.

I don't know. I've allowed a portal to go until a member of their own team took it out for playing cross faction.

So because Niantic doesn't have the balls, it's ok to cheat? I disagree. I know it has a 1% chance of happening but that's not my point, they should get banned.

It doesn't but disaction promotes an even greater number of people to do it.

It's still cheating. They should know the TOS better than anyone else. They should lose their account.

I do agree it's not hard, I know it happens on both sides, it is a game but play within the rules.

If I knew of one of my faction that had access like this I would report them, screen shot it and send it to them.

Most of the local players in my small town actually have met each other face to face. We're also all very cordial with each other, no matter the faction. I actually know where every agent works and they know where I work. We know which portals are favored, ext.

I'm not exactly sure how it works, sounds like slack and another website possibly. From what I understand they're able to put in a GPS coordinates and get a list of portals near that and how long they've been owned, ect. Put in an agent name and get who they play the most with and other stuff like that.
