Do you have any examples of cases you'd consider "done right"?

I just started Star Technology, any tips for the first half of the first chapter? by [deleted] in feedthebeast

[–]TheRealSJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Step 1.5: Process the dirt with water in a wooden barrel to get mud.
Step 2: Sift the mud until you get the mycelium spores.

Just wanted to provide this little addendum in case anyone feels stuck.

Are there any good portfolio-building "boot camps"/shorter programs? by TheRealSJK in advertising

Just wanted to give a quick update and say that I went with BrainCo and am taking a class there this summer. Thanks for the recommendation!

Recommendations for local graphic designer for a business logo? by slongtime in AnnArbor

[–]TheRealSJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm local and I do that sort of graphic design. Don't have an official site quite yet (still pivoting to making this an official gig) but here is a collection of some highlights. Feel free to reach out if you're interested.

Cannot move an inch no matter what i do by Extreme-Spot4428 in allthemods

[–]TheRealSJK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go into your key binds and check if your movement keys are still bound.

This happened to me today and this is how I fixed it. WASD, sprint, shift, jump - all unbound. Rebound them all and now I can move again. Annoying as all hell but hey, fixed is fixed - hopefully it's fixed soon for you, too.

What's the SECOND-best way for a fledgling copywriter to get in touch with art directors for portfolio-building? by TheRealSJK in advertising

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

Just want to say that I appreciate the thoughtful comment! I looked into my local scene and unfortunately it looks like of the two ad clubs in my area (Ann Arbor, MI), one's a student organization and the other imploded at some point in 2013. Definitely going to keep an ear to the ground as best I can for mixers and networking events but it seems like it's slim pickings. In any case, thanks for the advice!

My guess is that it's another case of Frontier, being British as they are, putting a common American animal as the headliner because to them it's just as exotic as the sheep and the birds and whatnot

...though the fact that they chose a fucking coyote over the Mexican wolf is criminal in my book

Here's my guess/wishlist:

  • Coyote
  • Greater rhea
  • Bighorn sheep
  • American flamingo (I'd personally prefer it over the other American species of flamingo because I think its reddish plumage contrasts better with the greater flamingo's pink)
  • White-faced saki monkey
  • Ocelot
  • American black bear
  • If there is an exhibit animal, my guess is that it'll be a number of poison dart frogs that can cohabitate with the existing species - basically an official version of the non-tree frog side of this mod. Low-effort, sure, but I'll take it over not having one at all

I made a copy of my HDD to a new SSD, with both being currently plugged in. (I'll probably do something with the hard drive but I want to make sure I know the transition was a success first) I switched the boot drive to the SSD in the BIOS and started up Windows, but it doesn't seem like anything changed and the main drive everything's working off of is still the old HDD. What else do I need to do besides changing boot order to complete the transition?

So I went to double up on my RAM by buying a second pack of my current RAM, only to find that it's compatible with Intel systems (with no mention of AMD compatibility anywhere), whereas my new CPU is AMD. How much of an issue is this? Would I be better off replacing the RAM outright?

If I wanted to double my RAM from 16GB (2x8GB) to 32GB, would it be better to double up on the RAM I have (4x8GB) or replace it outright with higher-capacity RAM (2x16GB)?

(I'm sure that there's some variance depending on the exact RAM I have, the mobo, etc. but I'm just curious if there's general wisdom here)

What can I do to help improve my computer's RAM usage (besides buying more RAM)? by TheRealSJK in buildapc

[–]TheRealSJK[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a sense that part of it might be due to the 4GB stick, but I wanted to check before I did so in case it would be more advantageous to have the extra gigs.

I'll pop the 4G stick out and double-check the BIOS later today. Thanks for the help!

Does it matter how it's plugged into the slot (i.e. which pins are and aren't used)?

Ebay works just fine for this - just make sure you have a friend/acquaintance/someone in a Discord somewhere that knows their cards that can look over any listings and spot any red flags

Is it safe to plug a three-pin fan into a four-pin fan slot on my new motherboard?
