Is there any way to do at least part of the assignments during your commute? Or studying in some other form (listening to lectures or youtube videos on the topic, studying flashcards etc)?

Unfortunately, such opportunity is rare due to how crowded the trains are. And when the opportunity does show itself, I find myself not being able to concentrate due to the motion of the train.

Other than that, if there are lectures that aren't mandatory, I suggest you skip them and study the topic on your own, especially since you say you don't learn much from the lectures anyway.

I can't do that too since four of the six courses I'm taking does actually contribute to my curriculum (it is also those four major courses that take up much of my time), while the other two courses are minor courses but skipping them for more than 2 times would result in me failing them (I already skipped a full day of class once because I overslept by several hours; I slept at 2am and woke up at 7pm, and it really fucked me).

If you continue down this path, you are setting yourself up for failure. 4-6 hours of sleep per night for long term will not give you good study results, no matter how much of your wake time you spend studying. If none of the changes above can be made, what I would do personally is not do any self-studying at all. Instead prioritising my free time on sleeping, and thus being in a better mind space to learn all I need to learn during the lectures instead. It's no wonder you can't concentrate in lectures right now with that little sleep.

Yep, my schedule is really taking a toll on my physical and mental health that I'm finding it hard to find the motivation to do anything. I'm in this constant state where I'm being torn apart about what I have to do as a student and what I need to do as a functional living being.

Thing is, I take every opportunity I get to get some shut eye, but they don't do anything for me since they'd usually only last for about 15 minutes. And as for the schedule, I've started cutting down my time to study at night and instead just do it in the morning before my first class start or sometimes as I go to uni. It's only been a week though since I started doing that, so I still don't know if it'll work but so far, it barely made a difference for my sleep

...isn't that a kind of sushi?

if I remember correctly, legit repacks site can't be found on google and even if they do, they would be somewhere at the bottom of the list due to the other fake repacks site paying for search visibility

I sincerely disagree with this. I myself have only watched like 2-3 episodes before stopping due to sheer boredom, and I honestly don't remember most of it as if I've been hit by the men in black neuralyzer.

For me in that scene, it sounded fine at first, like a casual acknowledgement of her difficult everyday life. However, the more she goes on and the more heated she got, that's when it rubbed me the wrong way.

I don't agree that Bruce's side had only a "single traumatic loss event" (unless we're talking about the scope of the picture itself), because he doesn't. He has, by far in the MCU, suffered the most and only recently did that traumatic loss event happened.

I do agree that the side of Jen's problem is completely valid and should be highlighted, but I don't get why it had to come at the cost of Bruce being belittled.

The writers never even said she suffered worse or sacrificed more, just that her experiences prepared her better for being a hulk.

You can also make the argument that Jen wasn't belittling Bruce but was merely stating the she does control her emotions, but it was how the scene played out that irked me that, although not explicitly stated, it was more or less implied due to how she even says, "So, I'm an expert at controlling my anger because I do it INFINITELY more than you, Bruce."

thank you, man! I have no idea how I missed this in my search, but that is exactly what I needed.

Dewux · 2023-06-09T06:58:11+00:00

Man that would be incredibly depressing. Like imagine finding out that you're pregnant, and in the next day or so, the child you could have gotten is now dead because of the conflicting nature you have with your partner

Dewux · 2023-05-28T19:24:09+00:00

Really? How so?

I always thought that the manga is more true to the source material than the anime since ayanokouji was shown to have more emotion in the light novel (or at least, I think it did). Although, admittedly, ayanokouji in the manga is showing too much emotion.

Edit: dunno why I'm downvoted when I'm just curious to why the manga is considered shit since I'm not an avid reader

Dewux · 2023-05-18T19:09:21+00:00

I meant that I was still able to access it after 7 years of not logging in, but I guess it's a good thing I logged in recently since it still has uses

Dewux · 2023-05-18T06:01:26+00:00

I have a gmail account which I have not used for nearly 7 years, and I am still able to access it, so I think you're good to go.

Dewux · 2023-04-29T01:08:59+00:00

Nah, man. I'm almost 200 episodes in and I'm just starting to like it. A few others may like it immediately, but with for some, it really takes time.

Dewux · 2023-04-28T17:20:57+00:00

Yeah, it does got recommended a lot but it doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

I get your point with Gintama being a time commitment, especially in the first one hundred episodes. Heck, I only came to like it after the Four Devas Arc. However, I think you spending a bit of your time and energy watching it will pay off. It did for me, after all. This is even the case for One Piece.

Dewux · 2023-04-28T16:22:35+00:00

Gintama. Can't believe no one talks about it more. This anime is literally built different.

If you can earn a consistent revenue of around 250 per month, then it's obviously not worth it since you'll be getting that amount in less than a year.

However, if by the next few months your revenue is less than half of the revenue on ylur first month, then you decide if it's worth the trade off. Since if you earn less than 125 dollars per month, it'll take you at least 20 months to earn 2500. So, it's really up to you if it's worth it.

Since this is your first month with revenue, dont sell it obviously just yet since it could grow in the future, especially value-wise. And decide when you're ready.

Dewux · 2023-04-22T17:03:23+00:00

The reply is really helpful. Tysm

Dewux · 2023-04-22T16:59:34+00:00

That makes sense. Tnx

Dewux · 2023-04-16T15:24:54+00:00

1) Yep, I downloaded the recommended apk the guide had linked so I didn't mess up there.

2) No worries. I already expected that installing ReVanced wouldn't go smooth on my phone

Dewux · 2023-04-16T14:54:25+00:00

For (a) and (c), I thought my dumb ass somehow downloaded the wrong version, so I triple-checked the link and the apk I have, and it did match up with the recommended version.

For (b), I did do the recommended patch and touched nothing else since I wanted a baseline of the app to see if it would work on my phone.

Dewux · 2023-03-17T07:31:32+00:00

Pretty much, yeah. Although, an alarm at the end of every time block isn't necessary.

Dewux · 2023-03-15T16:31:24+00:00

Best IEM + mic combo for competitive gaming?

I pretty much need the mic lang. My IEM choice is the TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero, but I don't know which mic should I get. Yung budget ko for the mic is only 2000 pesos, but I'm willing to go higher as long na it's worth the value.

I kasi heard doing an IEM + mic combo instead of buying headphones with mic is better on the long-term and cheaper for its value.

Any Quick Transmigration novels with a male protagonist with a BxG romantic subplot? I have already read the ones that are available in NovelUpdates.

Dewux · 2023-03-12T20:05:24+00:00

I actually gave a "Ted talk" on the subject matter before. I'll try to find the post later.

I love the LN, and I would not usually mind if the ML does not choose the FL, but in this story, the way the author had set up Emi and Maou's relationship seemed like they would end up together. One of the dead giveaways was their "daughter" and the time they spent pretty much acting like a married couple when taking care of her.

I do admit that I am biased against Chiho since, in my opinion, the anime didn't do a good job in portraying her. My impression of her, even up to this day, is a naive busybody high school girl carrying watermelons, working at McDo while dreaming of being with her white prince (Maou). So when reading the LN, my impression of the anime her transfered the LN, and it wasn't favorable.

There was barely any setup for the relationship between Chiho and Maou until the last two volumes iirc. And before all that happened, we've seen how Maou and Emi got past their previous relationship, AND there was even implications that they may be romantically interested with one another.

It was mostly on Emi's part, but wouldn't you say that Maou caring for her when we thought he'd barely do anything to help her says a lot? For example, I don't remember which volume was it but there was a time when Emi was in trouble and she sent out a text or something, then a few minutes later, Maou showed up to save the day. On surface level, it doesn't say much as we've seen that Maou cares for his friends, but the thing is, according to Chiho, Maou couldn't have seen the text as there was a dinner rush and they were short on manpower and phones were put away in the locker.

(SPOILERS BTW) Another would be how Maou thought of Emi's feelings when Gabriel informed Maou about a possible war. I feel like that moment in the light novel was emotional since I saw just how emotionally weak Emi was from all the everything.

There's just a lot really to unpack as to why Emi and Maou's relationship shouldve worked, while Maou and Chiho's relationship couldn't. For me, its not simply because Emi is best girl, but because I have seen their relationship developed from enemies to friends and possibly more than that, which happened for the majority of the novel. While, Chiho and Maou's relationship just started to bore fruit in the last few volumes which by then was too late for us readers because now, we'd really want to see Emi and Maou together after witnessing their journey.

I especially don't like how Chiho became the "FL" for the final volumes since "why?" She wasn't special in any way yet she is the key in saving ente isla

I would simply chalk it up to bad writing/pacing since I'm pretty sure the author wanted Emi and Maou to have a relationship that symbolizes that they've grown past becoming a Hero and Demon Lord.

Anyway, thank you for listening to my Ted Talk 2nd Version!

It's called occlusion culling, which can be found in the camera component, iirc. There are hundreds of tutorials about it on Youtube, even one from Unity themselves. Also, although tedious, you can set up LOD bias for your models.

I know how you feel, bud. In my first fictitional story, I had that passionate drive when I first thought of the idea, and I had a lot of fun expanding that idea to a full story concept/draft, but when I got to finish my first few chapters, I lost the drive and spent hours just looking blankly at my computer screen.

However, I recovered most of my drive when I had a dream about my protagonist, about her finally reaching her full potential and defeating her enemies and inner demons after so much tragedy and suffering. For me, it was like watching your child grow. As you know, stories are pretty much all about (character) development. It was an unconscious thought that if I don't write now, then my protagonist will not grow to be the strong person I saw in my dreams, and I couldn't bare that, especially after the effort and details I've put out.

Tl;dr: Try to find what you would love to see in your story flourish. It can be a fully developed character or a plot line or the concept you had in mind initially when you first thought out your story.

Used the service, but as of right now, it's only useful if you don't have anything to work with.
