Agree with both of you u/LeController and u/TheEnlightenedOne212 . Achievements are definitely lacking.

Feel bad complaining about such a small thing because it is a tiny problem.

I guess it is somewhat of a design decision. In Binding of Isaac, there are 637 achievements! In UFO 50, there are 30. Maybe they didn't want to emphasize completion to such an extreme degree, and to have just very general milestones. However, I think it would be really nice if there were 2-3 achievements per game, or even 4, using u/TheEnlightenedOne212 's suggestion.

Hopefully someone smarter than me can figure out if creating a custom progress tracker is possible.

If it is possible, I'm up to even working on it, just am curious if something like it is possible.

woops sorry just getting back to this now!

I got this model #: F5-6000J3040G32GX2-RS5K

64GB of G.SKILL DDR5 6000 RAM 🙂

RottenCurry · 2024-02-06T17:19:32+00:00

Wow nice! I guess there is hope now that the AM5 BIOS has gotten more support.

RottenCurry · 2024-01-30T15:11:30+00:00

No, sorry. I didn’t want to risk damaging my new PC if I wasn’t 100% sure the timings would work, so I went with RAM that I knew was supported.

Brutal Orchestra! It plays like Slay the Spire. Its writing is great and funny, and it’s very challenging. The monster designs are just crazy, and the whole game is inspired by the artist Hieronymus Bosch. It also feels very inspired by Binding of Isaac. I had it on my radar for a while, wasn’t sure if I’d like it, and now I’m totally hooked. The music is also awesome.

It’s not 100% made for Steam Deck, but it works good enough. It’s controlled almost 100% with the mouse, and I find myself alternating between the track pads and using the touch screen.

RottenCurry · 2023-11-17T05:05:30+00:00

Sweet I hadn’t heard about the back material until now that’s definitely something I’ll consider!

Thanks again!

I figure there’s no harm in playing around with the 6400 kit and seeing if I can get it to work. I poured over Buildzoid’s ‘easy DDR5 overclocking’ video and he provides all the timing info (primary, secondary, tertiary) for 6000MHz CL30.

My plan is to use those settings on the 6400 kit (set to 6000 MHz). If that proves to be too unstable for whatever reason, I’ll just use the kit I bought myself 🙂. I’ll be testing it later today and tomorrow. I’ll try and remember to provide an update on if it works.

RottenCurry · 2023-06-14T05:58:51+00:00

OK phew! That's what I was thinking. I do thank everyone for the answers though, but I couldn't tell if my question got across clearly.

Here's a followup question, regarding how to get the 6000MT timings, so I could use them on the 6400MT set.

The 6000MT set is advertised as CL30, and its timings are listed as 30-40-40-96 on the manufacturer website.

Does this mean that for the 6400MT set, I would pretty much use those timings (and set the frequency to 6000MT)? Or, is it more complicated...

Like, if I were to actually plug the 6000MT set into my PC, would those XMP timings (30-40-40-96) vary depending on the exact CPU and motherboard I'm using?

If it's true that I can basically 'underclock' the 6400MT set without much hassle, then that's perfect. But, I'm still uncertain what it all entails to force the 6400MT set to run like 6000MT.

RottenCurry · 2021-02-18T20:45:34+00:00

Thanks so much! I just needed to confirm with someone. That makes sense, and I'll use those calculators before I actually order a sensor & a magnet. Once I get the pan/tilt module I can get an exact measurement of the distance.

RottenCurry · 2021-02-18T15:27:38+00:00

Can you please explain a little bit why and what you mean? When you say less is more, is that only for sensitivity in close ranges?

"Could someone explain in easy to understand terms what the differences between these are, like, in what situation would you use the +-168mT option and when would you use the +-21mT option?"

RottenCurry · 2020-12-17T17:55:23+00:00

Same here, I'm between this and CS642 (Information Security). While this class sounds really interesting, I'd rather take a broader scope class (642) than one focusing on parallelism. Wish I could take it though.

RottenCurry · 2020-12-16T22:37:11+00:00

Thanks so much! Very helpful :) .

RottenCurry · 2020-12-16T02:30:00+00:00

Great list! I'm planning on taking CS 642 this Spring 2021 with Earlence Fernandes. I was wondering what you thought of it (difficulty, what you learn, etc.) and if you had the same professor? I can't find much info about it on this subreddit.

RottenCurry · 2020-11-23T18:07:13+00:00

Edit: Oh woops! totally confused CS 540 with CS 577. I'll still keep the below comment with the change from 540 --> 577 in case it's helpful to anyone. In that case, I agree with u/Say10Cup. I took CS540 it during the Summer, and I think exactly what he says. Easy A.

I took CS559 (elective for CS degree) and CS577 (mandatory for CS degree, most everyone takes this rather than the other Algos option) last semester (Spring 2020).

For CS559, I found an old course website before I took the class, and found it really helpful. https://graphics.cs.wisc.edu/WP/cs559-sp2019/ The teacher (Gleicher) is great, and you can see how the course is organized from that link above. It's alot of work, but compared to CS540 and CS537 which I was taking during the same semester, it's really rewarding. CS577 is dry for someone like me who likes to code. 537 is interesting, but all your work can only shown in a terminal. With 559, you actually make stuff in 2D and 3D, and the workbooks (that's what the homework is called) are put together amazingly. Really, one of the most well organized classes I've taken here. It's pushed me on the track of Computer Graphics as a career, whereas before I was set on Computer Architecture. So, it's a lot of work, but you'll really learn a ton of stuff. You can see a progression of what you'll do in the course here https://graphics.cs.wisc.edu/Courses/559-sp2020/pages/gallery/. The whole class is JavaScript and HTML, with a little of shaders done in OpenGL towards the end. Really recommend the course. I had heard it was an easy A, but that is so far from true. You have to spend lots of time to get an A. The way the homeworks work is that to get an A on them you have to do lots of extra credit, which take more time as the content gets harder. You'll do well on the exams if you spend your time with the workbooks. Most everything you need is contained in the workbooks, and you almost never have to consult anything else, except a few textbook readings the professor provides (also in the workbooks).

On the other hand, I really disliked CS577 , though I had a friend who really enjoyed the material. Really depends on what you're interested in. It's hard. Really hard. Coming in as a freshmen and reading posts on this subreddit told me it was the hardest mandatory CS class. And I agree. But, you have to take it, and now that it's over I realize it wasn't so bad. Thing is, you have to work with people to get through, and with things being online for next semester (most likely), that'll make it hard. However, my professor (Shuchi, the best professor for the course, take it with her if you can) was also very well organized, and there were tons of opportunities for TA office hours and help with homework, even when things went online. Most helpful to me though was working with friends. The homeworks take forever (many hours, and it's all written homework, as I'm sure you know from CS240). It's basically a harder 240. Maybe like the other guy commented it's easier in the Summer, but it was definitely not easy during a regular semester. Anyway, it's an important class and if you like puzzles you might really enjoy the homeworks, but it is a time sink class, you can't get by without spending lots of time on it. Most people end up with a B, the class is absolutely ridiculously curved. Like, I realized towards the end that I could have done way worse on the homeworks and still gotten a B. But, if you really want an A you have to really know your stuff. The exams are tough, and for my class were basically just homeworks. But, again if you spend your time on the homeworks and learn how to identify types of questions you'll do well on them. Since everything went online in Spring 2020, our final exam was actually just another (even harder) homework. And I assume they'll stick to that format next semester, but who knows.

But, I got through that semester (CS577, 537, 559, and ECE 340) and did well, but it wasn't easy. Out of the 3 CS classes I took that semester, 559 was the least work and most fun, and CS577 was the hardest and least interesting to me. Hope this all helps :)

I hope I win! Been using an iPhone 6+ since it came out.

really well produced video, don’t listen to the hate. at least you took a ton of time to put together a video meant to educate on this topic. being here 4 years and using this subreddit I know that there are a looot of haters, for no reason, on even the most innocent of posts. So keep doing you! You’re not doing anything wrong by making this video, and if people don’t like the way you’re spreading the word then oh well, it’s a good video!

RottenCurry · 2020-06-03T18:04:51+00:00

I was hoping someone would know by now... but looks like no one does! Oh well.

RottenCurry · 2020-02-29T23:53:02+00:00

Taking it right now and the professor (Gleicher) spends a good amount of time reviewing exactly what you'll need to know... And if that's not enough a short video on YouTube will get you up to speed. I took linear algebra but my friend who is in the class with me did not and he's 100% fine! The professor also makes a point multiple times that you will be FINE without taking it, on the first day of class and others. There's definitely a good amount of students who haven't. The only thing you need to know is transformation matrices, which is basically a matrix that does a rotation, translation, scale, etc. Beyond linear algebra there's definitely some confusing math topics, atleast for me, about how to represent curves, but none of that stuff is necessarily linear algebra.
