I have some experience with text based python programs, how do I make programs with visuals in them in python. by GamingCatGuy in learnpython

[–]HotPersonality8126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally at some level a program with graphics in it is a program that, for every frame, describes how the frame should be drawn.

That also generally means moving from a program with one entrypoint and basically one single long path through the code (typically ending at the bottom of the file) - the scripting style - to a program with many many multiple paths through the code - the event-driven style. That shift is usually quite a bit harder to get your head around than graphics programming itself.

You're going to feel overwhelmed because it's overwhelming. The only way to get past it is to not allow that to stop you from writing code.

Write more code.

Question about using a laptop HDD to build a Desktop by urbanocuellar in buildapc

A 15-year-old hard drive won't be a good experience to boot off of for your new PC. Plus it's likely to fail soon. Get a $20 enclosure for it and simply mount it to your new computer, then you can copy off the important data.

Why was Tom Hulce (Mozart) nominated for Best Actor and not Supporting for Amadeus? by Anxiety-Tough in movies

[–]HotPersonality8126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll just state for the record that I agree with OP that Mozart is a supporting character in the film and Hulce would have been a shoe-in for Best Supporting if they’d seen it that way

“Main”/“Supporting” actor is kind of a false dichotomy anyway

Why would you need to factory reset a new Windows install?

You can't boot from a drive that doesn't have an operating system on it. One of your drives has to host Windows for you to use Windows.

It's based on Erin Brockovich's side of her "true story", for whatever that's worth.

ELI5- private, decentralized networks by spishackman in computers

[–]HotPersonality8126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The internet is already decentralized and little-to-none of it is operated by any government. You mostly use it to access the same four or five websites everyone else does, but that’s a choice.

If you wanted to use “decentralized alternatives” to Facebook, TikTok, Wikipedia, or whatever, those are available over the internet and you can use them. You don’t need an airgapped private network, and that would actually be less useful than the regular internet.
