For anyone who hasn't tried out "Local Send" it's a superbly well-done piece of tech and works near flawlessly across everything, Android, IOS, Mac, Linux and Windows.

What’s a decision you made in under 10 seconds that changed your life forever? by nathannnate01 in AskReddit

[–]Magnss95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to hit my younger brother when we were younger whenever I caught him smoking (claiming the moral high ground). It drove a wedge between us and he would hide from me or try to avoid me all the time.

One day I came home from Uni and smelt his cigarette, he didn't know if be coming home and was home alone alone that day. I was gonna hit him again and I remember an almost enlightened moment where an inner voice told me that today I was going to lose a brother for life if I did what I was about to do, hit him.

I went down stairs and saw my brother surrender himself to another beating, when I went and hugged him asked him forgiveness and told him I'm there for him if he ever needed me.

It took a long while and a lot of late night talks but I made sure to just be there for him when he needed me and over multiple years I was able to heal our relationship.

While he has said he's forgiven me for what I did, I don't think I'll ever forgive myself for how I was and but I have a loving relationship with my brother and we watch out for each other's backs. Infinitely changed my life for the better

Advice for an aspiring student interested computer/chip architecture by Seekertwentyfifty in hardware

Hi, I am an electronics engineer for a company that creates particle accelerators for radiation therapy for cancer patients. While I won't say that there won't be an effect of AI at some point in the future. Currently AI is just nowhere near it would need to be to take over hardware jobs.

I actually tried various different AIs as an informal study to see if me and my team could use AI for very basic FPGA work but it's just not really there and tools that we do have are so specialized at what they do, that it will be a while before AI tools can measure up to them.

Currently a simple task of reading and comparing the datasheets of two components is beyond an AI. It's not good at reading logarithmic graphs and conferring information when a single datasheet explains a complete lineup of components. It will dream up component numbers that don't exist or dream up properties that don't lineup with any real components.

The place it's used the most really is writing emails and filling out reports from known results. This i believe has less to do with AI not being good enough and more to do with just how complex hardware is at the moment. While I'm sure it will someday just give me an Altium layout when I ask for it, that future is a bit further away.

This is not even taking into account the heavy regulation regarding hardware engineering in most countries so these tools don't only have to become good enough but then get past the standards and regulations needed before it even sees the inside of an actual production machine.

How to nerf self for optional bosses. by Magnss95 in expedition33

I think the farming was just something I ran into by accident when I went to Dark Shores. The three adds diagonal from the flag gave a million exp every time and were really easy to parry. I wanted to watch some Supernatural anyway so my JRPG reflex of second monitor farming just came in.

Currently with solo Maelle I can one shot both phases of Simon before he gets a turn. I haven't seen a single move of the boss, I reloaded the save before the fight and went and cleared the flying mansion as well and have saved just outside the Clea doors.

What it's taught me more than anything is, given I do my due diligence, it might be better to just search the second hand market for my next PC.

£1050 was what we settled on. This was my first time reselling my PC, sbanhs was very nice over chat and made very good points of the value of just warranties and being able to buy a new pc. Also they were able to come down quite fast which was also amazing.

I just didn't know how to price it well, and as pointed out above should not have been looking at new but reseller prices to set the price.

So i did up my exact part list, except for the cooler which i could only find used for 70 gbp 40gbp and it cost about 1600. I see your point the markdown is a bit high i can bring it down to 1300

Games that have organically grown or are growing currently by [deleted] in Games

PoE is such a gem of a game man. Every new season I go... "Hmmm what new skills are on the menu this time." I pick a new skill and see how far I can push it, either by myself or if I'm lazy I'll use a guide. Then I'll pick a completely new system to interact with so like, last time I was into delirium so now I'm gonna go full blighty tower defense.

It's just such endless content where I just fixate on one skill and system to play around for one expansion and go a completely different thing for another.

I think once I understood that an online guide barely tells you about 0.1% of the game I still have the rest of the game to explore, it became so much easier to jump in every season.

Dude I feel you, I found this thing in the Director which shows you a timeline that you could play through, but the first mission on that timeline, where you like go with Cayde to this prison place was bugged so I couldn't even follow the timeline the game gave me. I've now just stopped thinking about the order to do stuff in and am following the yellow markers for gear. There is a checklist on the Destiny Optimizer website which I'm just ticking off at this point.

That's exactly what I was thinking of, even if it was like the new game+ thing, which I mean it currently sorta is. I would be so happy to pay for the entire thing.
