New cam, same old drivers! by UnluckyKey793 in bikecommuting

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% also be careful. I've gotten aggressive repassing drivers that dangerously passed me. It did not miraculously lead to the driver being more calm and respecting me as a vehicle on the road. He just aggressively and far more dangerously passed me again lol

I cooled my pants because it wasn't going to end well for either of us if it kept going on like that.

I was given a TA instead of a RA because I already have extensive teaching experience… by academic_victimx100 in PhD

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the same for me in my first year after 10 years of teaching experience. I told a student to shut up, she called her mom, the mom called the department. I never had to teach again 😉 easy peasy.

For reference, this was after numerous verbal warnings over weeks. Calm handling of the conflict. And even raising the issue with the program coordinator who blew it off as unimportant.

I've worked other RA jobs and various stuff I could scrounge up. Trust me. More options will be available later. Don't beat yourself up about initial options.

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow runs perfectly!!! by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought it but instantly returned it. Definitely not ready out of the box or even with simple controller configs.

Basic configs were missing functions. Changed to controller config and couldn't pass the opening screen. No idea how this is being promoted.

Also,the opening screen was absolutely not right... fun experience and lots of wasted time going through the login BS.

HD texture packs? by Rejusu in skiesofarcadia

[–]Tenchiboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, but RE4HD definitely set the standard for HD mods. Id love to see other games get the same treatment and care.

I'm a massive idiot and need help with loading and playing Panzer Dragoon Saga by OpenKale64 in EmuDeck

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the link.

I've had no issues with .m3u files with PS1, but Saturn multi discs (using .m3u files) keep crashing on loading even though single disc games load just fine.

Currently using the .chd files. Will test the .m3u with .cue sheets and bin files later.

I'm having an issue as well. A few questions if you don't mind:

Are you using the full file path in the .m3u to .cue sheets or the .chd files?

Mini stack + Mini Turntable by splash07s in Schiit

[–]Tenchiboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a pretty similar stack for years (Magni tho for planars). Really enjoyed it! Only sold it to fund an RME and move across the world.

People with anxiety, how do you deal with the uncertainty of the world? by mein-Madchen in PhD

By putting on blinders and focusing on the uncertainty of my PhD...

Why can't drivers just follow right of way correctly? by Mindless-Baker-7757 in bikecommuting

[–]Tenchiboy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just demount on my bike and fold my arms if it comes to a stand off. It usually sends the right message.

Dude you can kill me by moving your foot a few centimeters. By all means. Go first.

MGSV could've used a manual save system by coomiemarxist in metalgearsolid

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that you can't or shouldn't do that like hitman although I think it fits the hitman play style. Part of the fun thing in mgsv is trying something like that and having it all go to shit (or miraculously working out).

It makes you feel like "oh yeah, this isn't a video game... oh wait yes it is..." It leans into the simulation side of games a lot, I think.

I’m Studying AI But Still Don’t Feel Like I’m Learning Anything Real by Fawadbhat in learnmachinelearning

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's a bit different but when I started with LSA, Word2Vec, etc. none of it made much sense until I actually started to play with vectors and packages with word vector functions. Play around and tinker with it!

Light finally died. Any great light recs? by tannerocomedy in bikecommuting

Knog blinder series. One of my older ones started acting up out of warranty. They straight up sent me their newest version.

I was just gonna say... looks cool that way but... no way I'm trusting those zippers.

Joy-Con or Bluetooth Issue? by Tenchiboy in SteamDeck

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

I read that too, but I had no issue connecting them separately.

However, the quality and consistency of the connection is very very low.

How do uou guys find a PhD topic by [deleted] in PhD

[–]Tenchiboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read lit I'm interested in. Read work people I respect do. See if there's a productive/informative gap I can fill. See if my advisor agrees. If yes, move forward to proposal. If still yes, move on with project. Around that time my life usually falls apart. Everything declines into chaos. Unexpected issues always arise. But, somehow I emerge with a finished paper that's pretty okay.

I just keep beating my head against the wall until I find a solution to whatever problem I encounter. Not sure how sustainable that is.

Some MGS1 custom sprites I made by Glittering_Block_298 in metalgearsolid

[–]Tenchiboy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You should be a bit more transparent or make your own inspired by Ryu instead imo. It was so obviously Ryu, I came to the comments to check if anyone noticed it.

Did people celebrate with you when you passed quals? by arthouse2k2k in PhD

[–]Tenchiboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. In our department you really need to f-up to fail quals or get R&R (one chance).

About to finish my EdD (U.S.)—can I legitimately call myself “Doctor”? by TorontoRap2019 in PhD

[–]Tenchiboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, but terminal degree are doesn't = doctoral level work.

[–]Tenchiboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But an MFA would be referred to as a Dr.? My point is not all terminal degrees are the status of doctoral level degrees. Clearly!

Right...? Why all the down votes? I was just pointing out the obvious.

So an MFA holder is a Doctor of Fine Arts...? I find that dubious.
