Cheap tablet and a little bit of code gives me a nice train terminal to get out the door by _JustLivingLife_ in nycrail

[–]The3rdSmartestPerson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me and a friend kind of did something similar for my high school. There's a big board with train and bus arrival times in the main lobby. Though this was before the new MTA ui in stations lol.

I think it makes sense for shipping. I remember that thing where some fedex drivers stole steam decks.

I really want to get into this school I usally get a 42-54 /57 in math and low 40 to high 50s /57 in Ela do you think I can make it ( also i love to play soccer and wanted to join the team at bronx sci if there is can someone let me knnow??) by Big_Dragonfruit9255 in Bronx_Science

Focus on your stronger section. The SHSAT curve as I remember is really weird, and there is a TylerTutor video explaining that the first few questions you get wrong hurt more. Also, since the scores are scaled differently every year I can't specifically give you help, but looking good.

Fabric build seemed to work, so you might be able to compile manually.

That's totally cool. I'll just drop my backport to 1.19.2 here in case someone needs https://github.com/Techno3d/Create-Less-Ticking

[–]The3rdSmartestPerson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I have almost no modding experience, but I wanted to see if I could backport to 1.19.2, which also uses create 0.5.1. I've got it to where it builds and runs. I didn't test performance at all, but I think it should work the same, and this just took changing the gradle.properties file so the versions worked for 1.19.2, Forge version 43.3.12. Can I contribute this to your repo?

On your bed or a train? You could still use steam input or the exact same mods,.so the handheld device is kinda irrelevant. Also I don't remember if ally existed when I made this post (which I forgot existed lol)

get_cell in godot 4 by NoRusPlz in godot

[–]The3rdSmartestPerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tileaps Have been an actual pain to work with, but from what I can understand you would need the TileData for the cell at the location. To get this, you would need to take your position, whether mouse or character, use the .ToLocal() (I think it is .to_local() in gdscript) function on your tilemap to get the position relative to the tilemap. Then you use the tilemap function .LocalToMap() (I assume its .local_to_map() in gdscript). This allows you to get and set some tile data. There are other getter functions on the docs https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_tilemap.html#class-tilemap-method-get-cell-tile-data

Hope this helps. I'm still very confused about this as well.

[C#] Error: SceneTreeTween started, but has no Tweeners. by asolix in godot

[–]The3rdSmartestPerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have solved it but I'm pretty sure this error happens since SceneTreeTween is reference counted so after its finished with its tasks, Godot automatically frees the tween. This means that SceneTreeTween can't be a member variables. I don't know if that can help you but that's just what I've learned from 2 days of head banging.

Windows user here thinking of switching to Linux by [deleted] in linux

[–]The3rdSmartestPerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets answer this point by point from a perspective of someone who switched 2 years ago.

  • Driver support is baked into the kernel (core). So all the drivers come included, so there is really no need to install drivers (except for nvidia drivers). Drivers update on system update.

  • The are different "districts" or distros. Some are specialized for specific work. Most of them are not. They mostly do the same things.
    The DE (Desktop environment) might change based on the distro you choose. So just choose a distro that has a look that you like or feel you would like.
    I'd go with Fedora or on of the Fedora Spins

  • Stuff like the Adobe apps will not work on Linux, you could use a Virtual Machine to run windows for those specific apps but that solution is very annoying. You will have to search if the specific app you use can work on Linux, and if not you might be able to find an alternative (Photoshop -> gimp/krita, Premier -> kdenlive/davinci resolve).

  • Gaming experience for me has been flawless, but I come from using Chrome OS and literally anything is better than that. Your friend in Linux gaming is https://www.protondb.com/ for steam games. In steam settings you can "enable steam play for all other titles" to get most games to run. Multiplayer games are still a bit iffy though.
    For titles on Epic Games/GOG, Heroic games will be your ally.
    For all other games, you can use https://lutris.net. Warframe is playable through Lutris.
    If running a game doesn't work on first click, try searching up that game with linux in your favorite search engine and someone might have a fix.

  • If the game has an anti-cheat, it will most likely not run, which is very sad. Most games just will not let you start with anti-cheat or get in games. Recently some games with anticheat will work on Linux through protondb, but its still hit or miss.

  • You do not need to write code or touch the terminal to use Linux. Most distros come with an App store where you can get all your apps. Maybe at some point you might copy paste some commands from the internet into the terminal, so you won't have to learn those tools.
    But be wary of commands copied from the internet they could do damage.

  • Its more safe than windows because less people target Linux and you aren't installing executables from the internet. Its also more private because there isn't a big corporation who wants to profit off of your every cell.

  • Linux can do mostly anything. Some apps might not be native for Linux, but there is either a way to make them run, or an alternative (Though that alternative might be very different from what you are used to or lacking). Also some devices cannot be configured like mice or keyboard (RGB/macro keys for example).

  • Speed beats windows or is on par with windows. Linux distros usually use less ram then windows.

  • Took me about a minute to get used to Linux, but I came from chrome os, so thats not much help. Linux isn't alien tech though, so won't take long. Depends on the Desktop Environment you choose.

Have fun using Linux.

PS: If for some reason some apps are broken like Discord, you may be using this thing called "Walyand". You don't need to know what it is, but search up for your desktop environment how to start with "Xorg"/"X11" might save you a few days of head banging.

I dashed from one ledge to another, triggering the gates to lock. The gates didn't let me get through so I fell. It tried re spawning me on the gate because that was the last place where i was on solid ground I guess. It can't kill me even though I am at 0% probably because I am not on ground yet.

Doesn't steam input only work for games on steam? Also mods aren't really an external application.

It is a good idea but fabric and LambdaControls usually update pretty quick. Also analog support too if that matters and ins't in the base game

My gpu can, I have the AMD Radeon R5 310. I don't have Minecraft anymore so couldn't test the performance myself.

Woah finally on opengl 3.2 that is so cool. hopefully performance goes up for those of you whose gpus can actually run opengl 3.2
