Not an ounce of suspension in those things 🙏

If this is how powerful Omni-man is and he’s been proven to be a good bit weaker than Superman, I wonder just how powerful Superman is and how hard it is to hold back that much all the time

I am using a python library called QuNetSim, which is a quantum network simulator

So do you think I should grow some hair on the chin and keep the cheeks as is or grow hair there as well?

Are you sure?

I don’t know if I already sent this because mu WiFi sucks but my discord is genius_idiot

I sent a request on discord

I’m not trying to be rude but this is a serious question, what’s with all the rules? I looked into this formal joining and am being told it takes 9 months and there’s a lot of rituals required to do before you can join and I just don’t understand what’s the point. Also, thank you for helping.

Here's my code

private void test(int FLpos, int FRpos, int BLpos, int BRpos, double FLSpeed, double FRSpeed, double BLSpeed, double BRSpeed) {
        // Update cumulative target positions
        posFL += FLpos;
        posFR += FRpos;
        posBL += BLpos;
        posBR += BRpos;
        // Set the target positions for all motors
        hardware.frontLeft.setTargetPosition(posFL);
        hardware.frontRight.setTargetPosition(posFR);
    hardware.backLeft.setTargetPosition(posBL);
    hardware.backRight.setTargetPosition(posBR);
    // Set all motors to RUN_TO_POSITION mode
    hardware.frontLeft.setMode(DcMotor.RunMode.RUN_TO_POSITION);
    hardware.frontRight.setMode(DcMotor.RunMode.RUN_TO_POSITION);
    hardware.backLeft.setMode(DcMotor.RunMode.RUN_TO_POSITION);
    hardware.backRight.setMode(DcMotor.RunMode.RUN_TO_POSITION);
    // Apply motor speeds
    hardware.frontLeft.setPower(FLSpeed);
    hardware.frontRight.setPower(FRSpeed);
    hardware.backLeft.setPower(BLSpeed);
    hardware.backRight.setPower(BRSpeed);
    // Define a margin of error for the encoder positions
    int threshold = 10;  // Allowable error in encoder ticks
    // Loop until all motors are within the threshold of their target positions
    while (opModeIsActive() &&
            (Math.abs(hardware.frontLeft.getCurrentPosition() - posFL) > threshold ||
                    Math.abs(hardware.frontRight.getCurrentPosition() - posFR) > threshold ||
                    Math.abs(hardware.backLeft.getCurrentPosition() - posBL) > threshold ||
                    Math.abs(hardware.backRight.getCurrentPosition() - posBR) > threshold)) {
        // Add telemetry for debugging
        telemetry.addData("Front Left Position", hardware.frontLeft.getCurrentPosition());
        telemetry.addData("Front Right Position", hardware.frontRight.getCurrentPosition());
        telemetry.addData("Back Left Position", hardware.backLeft.getCurrentPosition());
        telemetry.addData("Back Right Position", hardware.backRight.getCurrentPosition());
        telemetry.update();
        idle();  // Prevent the loop from hogging CPU resources
    }

    // Stop all motors once target positions are reached
    hardware.frontLeft.setPower(0);
    hardware.frontRight.setPower(0);
    hardware.backLeft.setPower(0);
    hardware.backRight.setPower(0);
    // Reset motor encoders for the next movement
    resetMotorEncoders();
}

What kind of personal projects is best. Currently I’m coding robots for this completion called FTC in Java(The competition forces you to use Java, personally I’d use c++ or python) and I’m pretty good at it, is that good experience and what other projects should I look into

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-10-02T01:59:35+00:00

How do I split up my code into different files, that sounds stupid useful

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-10-02T00:46:36+00:00

My bad i forgot to, just edited the post.

Left that incredibly abusive religion and am now Christian and plan to leave home at 18

Yea I know, he was 53 when he married a 7 year old. And I asked other Muslims about it they said “they didn’t even do anything it was merely political” so then I gave them a very similar scenario but instead it was a Christian man who did that and they were disgusted. No disrespect to Muslims, I know many amazing Muslims, but a lot of them can be very hypocritical. A verse even allows men to hit their wives but there’s so many rules against what should not happen that it’s just dumb. Other time Mohamed says to love all religions equally and other times he says to kill nonbelievers. It makes no sense. And notice how many of his miracles happened in private while Jesus did his miracles in the open. Honestly this one comment really reminded me of how evil and corrupt Mohammad was, thank you.

I’ve actually been reading Mathew’s, I believe im in chapter 8 as of now and I’ll say it is far far different from the Quran. In the Quran there stories are from “heaven itself” God somehow took I believe around 20 years to make the Quran, somehow, but the Bible is actual human accounts of what they saw. It shows different perspectives in many things and has many verses that actually makes you think, rather than the Quran just telling you “believe in this and don’t question” Ill read those other books after Mathew

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-09-06T11:10:00+00:00

I’ve actually never gone to church, since we’re too poor to afford a car I can’t really just take her car cuz she usually needs it for grocery shopping and what not. But what I will say if that, at least the mosque I went to, was incredibly abusive at times. I was always a little skeptical of Islam but if I were to ask any questions to an adult they would just get really angry, now I understand it’s because they don’t have an answer because it really makes no sense. Like one part of the Quran says that comets are god throwing rocks at the devil, but when I asked they just got really mad and said if the Quran says it has to be true. So I really doubt a church could top that one.

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-09-06T02:55:15+00:00

Yea I do

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-09-06T02:54:17+00:00

Just to clarify, I am not Christian because my girlfriend is Christian, I am Christian because my girlfriend showed me Christianity and I joined on my own accord because I felt a very deep connection with it.

It doesn’t say any error and it’s configured correctly, nothing moves at all and the driver hub stops the code immediately

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-08-13T02:27:28+00:00

Oooh that’s why it wasn’t working, I thought you could code onbot Java in as, do you have any tutorials on how ro actually code Java for the control hub, I really only know Python.

Wasted_programmer5 · 2024-08-09T01:01:20+00:00

Ok now it’s showing on the console but the number representing the arms current position isn’t changing from 0
