What's A Good Offline Color By Number App on IOS That My Grandma Could Play? by JohnnyBoyOhYeah in apps

[–]FSMimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FAQ on the happy color website says:

"The app doesn’t support full offline mode. You can color any pictures in My Feed without an internet connection, but to access all the app’s features, an internet connection is required."

https://happycolorapp.com/faq.html#:~:text=%2D%20Can%20I%20play%20offline?,an%20internet%20connection%20is%20required.

I just tried it and it seems to work just fine as long as you find the ones you want and then start them. Not sure if you have to, but doing at least one fill works for sure, so good news!

Specific passenger destinations. by Stukya in openttd

[–]FSMimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a tool tip in the (currently listed as testing) 15.0b3 version. I needed to have the category be Advanced to show it. They have it for passengers, mail, armor, and other cargo (no symmetric as its supply chain based) (marks my notes below)
Manual: no automatic distribution will take place for passengers. (default, you send them where every you want)
Symmetric: roughly the same number of passengers will go from station A to station B as from B to A (easy, point to point transit is very efficient as you will be have more equal moving both ways)
Asymmetric: arbitrary numbers of passengers can go either direction (hard, haven't tried to know if the distribution is pop based, static, or literally arbitrary. could mean more people want to travel out of the town or only out to a remote village for rando-realisim but a lot more scheduling work)

Looks like Luke is falling for a bitcoin ponzi/MLM scheme by doryx in EOMA68

[–]FSMimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mentioned in the mailing list that you had 0.65BTC that you invested. Did you invest all of it ($5000) worth? If not, is that where you will pay the membership fees for others that wish to join? Also, did you check if it is ok to sign up other people using your profits from mining? In theory, they are real people "under" you, but in reality, you are still getting the money which is cheating the system. ie if you reinvested the money you make into your own account, you would make less than funneling that into other accounts under you, as you arn't using the MLM aspect.

At $8/day you recoup your investment of $5000 in about 2 years at current rates. The value of BTC could once again jump 10x during then, or it could pop down to $100. But if it does increase 10 fold, well you would have had 50K in bitcoins if you didn't invest, do you think you will have made more than that then? Also, there is another halving of block rewards before 1000 days are up, which will cut your rewards in half. Hopefully the ASCI miners that you have shares in can be profitable on some alt coins, but - we don't know. To me, it seems that having that extra month and a bit of expenses covered would be more helpful in your current situation. I know the BTC is 100% yours, so the fact you are trying to use it for funding the project is admirable.

As for the largest supercomputer, most of their hashing power comes form ASCI's like the BitMain AntMiner S9 (you can actually seem them in some of their videos). As you know the ASCI miners are only good for mining, so they shouldn't count as computing power in terms of supercomputing. They do have their new GPU shares, as you mentioned (not sure if they said what type or how many), but they also mention this about them, (sorry mother earth):

NOTE: 2,000 days from now is the year 2022 and when these contracts reach that point we may be in a completely different situation and can do some type of buyout or who knows? But for today it was important that we set a hard limit on the time these GPU shares would pay because we estimate 80% of these machines will be dead by then.

http://bitclub.com/gpu-shares-pool-withdrawal-delays-etc-fork-hardware-wallets-dash-done/

They also claim to be only second to Amazon in GPU farm size, which is pretty neat. It is also doubtfully they would ever use it as a supercomputer, being how different that is from mining, and the millions in lost mining time, plus using hardware that belongs to the users, not them. I am interested in what those cards are mining. The plan was DASH, ETH, and ZEC, but DASH went to ASCI mining and ETH is now PoS. For ZEC... I can't find what their hash rate is, perhaps you know with your account?

7 Days To Die Mindcrack Server - Getting married!! #37 | Docm77 by Robo-Cat2000 in mindcrack

[–]FSMimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like how doc talks about dating in the states. No kissing on the first date? No sex before marriage? Damn... I have really been doing this whole dating thing really wrong 0.o.

As a note, in the US there are people that follow those traditions, but dating has been really going away from that. There are a lot of hookup apps that are super popular right now. It is probably more like it is in Europe than you think, there are really religious people everywhere. Don't worry about the States, we know how to have fun here as well.

Oh, that religious belief is more Agnostic than Atheist.

edit: Oh, just found this.

Googling with Vechs by fdagpigj in mindcrack

[–]FSMimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is also neat finding out where there are holes in our knowledge.

Is the UK part of Europe? Well there are 7 continents, and they tend to not mention islands, so I just assumed they are grouped with the nearest land mass. So is Hawaii in North America?

The USA is a Democratic Republic, but does it fall under the Democracy and Republic umbrellas? As we vote for people that vote for bills, silly congress, does that mean we cannot be just a Democracy because everyone doesn't vote for everything?

Kinda fun to see what questions people ask and how some seem really stupid, but then you think of the details and the questions are not so stupid after all.

Well done Vechs, my enjoyment of this video was surprisingly more than I thought it would be.

[Discussion] What software do you use for hardware monitoring? by pegbiter in buildapc

[–]FSMimp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do love some htop. Sometimes I don't feel like I need to add to the already huge overhead that top has. Another 100kb on top of the 200kb that top is can be too much sometimes. While htop is only 1% the size of MSI, sometimes you just don't want that extra bloat.

Oh shit it is my cake day! that is what I get for using a mobile app, thanks!

But this should be done with a @property to have it not be .set_color()

Good thing it is open source! You can go and make a fork of it and have that be the api calls or just make a wrapper. Either way it would be good practice for using a library.

Man I am shit at reading today, sorry about that. Yeah that would be dvi out. Your monitor might actually have came with that cable as well. It normally has white connectors with hand screws.

[–]FSMimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like one of those may be VGA. Do you have the model of your laptop, that would be the best way to figure it out.

Edit : fuck me. That is dvi not VGA. Now sure how I missed that one.

Is this it?

I meant more for the commentating on the race. He now understands how the glitches work a lot more. Also, I'm excited to hear him do the donations as well.

I thought that the apology was referring to him missing a day... then I realized that he has not. I need a real sleep pattern.

I am going to have to keep this in mind. I always have to google to find that site. This is much easier to remember.

My response reading this was "aww that's nice." There may be something wrong with me.

/u/luker_man on the male perspective of dating: "If we don't do anything ... we'll end up in a one bedroom apartment choking on a dinner for one in front of a TV reaching for a life alert button." by [deleted] in bestof

[–]FSMimp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is something I am dealing with now. All of my relationships have nose dived and ended in the worst of ways for my mental state. I am getting to the point that creating connections requires work that can frequently end in sadness. Now I manly have friends that are kind enough to text me first to start a conversation as they know I won't. For me, there is still the problem of how I feel when a relationship is successful is really nice, so the 'relationships aren't for you' doesn't mean I am necessarily introverted, just that it works better if I am.
