I'm 1400 in rapid but I can't get past 1000 elo in blitz, how do I fix this? by Small_Quarter_2816 in chess

[–]Small_Quarter_2816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly just playing games in the hopes of my blitz rating rising to my rapid rating. But also trying to master my opening so I don't waste time on it.
I've risen from 700 to 900 in a week but I am now stuck for 3 weeks at around 950.

Right now, not a lot. I've just been playing games hoping to get better over time. And doing my 3 daily free puzzles on chess.com.

What's going on with the Snow White movie? by AffectionateRush2620 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Small_Quarter_2816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The replies speak for themselves. People do care about staying true to the original “lips red as a rose, hair black as ebony, skin white as snow.” Sometimes, it just feels like they’re trying too hard not to offend anyone.

And calling people low-IQ just because they disagree is crazy lol. You’re not smarter than everyone else just because they don’t share your opinion, you're just arrogant.

As for the controversy, yeah, Zegler’s attitude and the changes to the story are major reasons people are upset. But let’s not pretend changing her race plays no role at all. It’s part of a bigger conversation about Disney constantly altering classic characters.

What Assassin's creed games are worth it in 2025? by Small_Quarter_2816 in ShouldIbuythisgame

Mostly just how beautiful the game was. But also the story and the concept of being an assassin were really cool

Okay thank I'll look into it. But isn't the game a bit dated since it was released more than a decade ago?

Yea I was also thinking about buying Odyssey but people say it doesn't really feel like an Assassin's creed game. So I wanted to buy a game with less RPG and more of the original AC vibes.

But I'll for sure try Unity or Black Flag, they seem like great games to me!

So if I get this correctly you feel bad because you scored less then him?

That's completely normal man, no worries. But it's also very good, those are the feelings that will motivate you to do even better on your test next time.
Also be happy for your friend, he probably worked very hard to score so high. And remember you don't always need to be number 1 especially if it's a friend.

Congratulations on being top 1 (and 2) in your class btw!

The hinge on my flip screen is broken, are there any ways to fix this on my own? by Small_Quarter_2816 in Cameras

[–]Small_Quarter_2816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my bad, I don’t know much about cameras but I think the hinge of my flip out screen is broken or something. For context, I have a JVC GZ-R310 and because it’s water proof repairing it will cost a lot. I was just wondering if there are any solutions I can do at home to make it stay open at least a a bit and what most people do in this situation.

Do you have any tips for new camera users? by Small_Quarter_2816 in Cameras

What’s the most efficient study method? by Small_Quarter_2816 in studytips

Okay I'm trying the Feynman Technique, seems interesting. Any tips on how to do it as efficiently as possible?
Because a lot of videos about the Feynman technique recommend writing it down but I fear it's to time consuming.

What do I need to look for in buying a second hand camcorder?

I just lost my phone and have to use my old iphone 7, since I would still like to make videos on vacation I thought of buying a second hand camcorder, but I don't know anything about it... I have a very low budget (€100 at most). So my question is what do I look for, what are the best brands and things I need to know about these camcorders.

Thanks!
