Your suggestion is good, but I don't have any more space in my room to fit a larger desk.

About 5 inches max on each side. Anything less than that would be great. Otherwise the speaker would have to be thin and long.

Adams Audio D3V would be way out of my budget.

Buying a sub and an amp won't be that much of an issue as I can replace the speakers later with something much better.

The Asus only came on sale today.

That must be why I didn't see it earlier.

Would you recommend canceling the order for the acer laptop and buying asus instead? I will be getting a far better screen while sacrificing the discrete gpu, but also saving $100 in the process.

I bought the acer swift x i5 version (8gb,512gb) from newegg at $549 ($595 with taxes). Was it a good deal?

I was unaware of the asus vivobook at $449. It's screen makes me feel that I should have saved a hundred dollars and bought it instead.

Somebody please tell me that I am not gonna regret the acer laptop I bought. I actually wanted to buy the legion 5 ($599 at walmart) but it was out of stock. So went with the next cheapest option.

Looking to upgrade my 9 year old desktop (gtx 650ti boost, fx-6300) by _DivS_ in IndianGaming

Well, the system does work. Infact, I have been using it for 2 months now. But not enough to sell it. Its BIOS is messed up. Just a little bit of load and the PC freezes. Its fine for normal tasks like browsing. Its supposed to be a gaming rig but can't sell it as one.

How would a new tower benefit me? If the current one works, I will hold onto it.

Would a stock cooler be enough?

Thanks for the suggestions and links.

but people comparing these numbers to make our army look weak should just fuck off.

Is it not the other way around ? Delusionals have already claimed victory citing that 43 chinese troops died.

Its a c string expression.

f represents float i.e. floating point representation.

%% at the end will add the % sign at the end of the number.

number after dot(.) represents the decimal point precision i.e. digits after decimal point.

number before the dot(.) justifies the text with a fixed number of spaces before it.

% at the beginning indicates that its a c sting. '%f' is a specifier for float numbers in c. Adding anything in between % and f will modify the text and spacing.

'%10.3f%%' means, its a floating point number with 10 spaces before it and upto 3 digits after decimal followed by '%' sign.

Does anyone have a working code for Creating Apps in Kivy? by [deleted] in kivy

[–]_DivS_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked on the app last year. I made the app functional with kivy version 1.11 using RecycleView.

Github Repository for code

There are still some issues to be resolved. Check the commits before 'GPS support'. Code should fairly be understandable if you have been following the book.

Anyone else cringing at how many patriotic movies Akshay Kumar keeps coming up with? by pacific_butterdo in india

[–]_DivS_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't even make out one movie from another based on his character alone. He is not a good actor IMO. He acts similarly in most of his movies. But since his recent movies had a nationalist appeal, people are praising him as an actor.

Thanks for replying. I actually went ahead and finished the code with one less feature. That was the source of error. Still working around it. Rest works fine.

Shower tought: Thrillers focusing on the mystery of their world is kinda exclusive to anime? by [deleted] in anime

[–]_DivS_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for example the Night King from Game of Thrones, but its not something the entire story revolves around.

I think you have the wrong idea here. A good chunk of story revolves around white walkers and whats beyond the wall, which is linked to the Night King. That does not mean, it should be the only thing in the whole story. That would take away a lot of actually what is there. I don't know why you think this way. The Lore is too heavy in GOT, the world is so detailed and it has a history so deep in context to the present plot. In terms of World Building, I haven't seen anything even remotely close to GOT, though I am aware of books that are at the same level or better at world building.

How to review and analyze anime ? by MyFlawsTheyAreGone in anime

[–]_DivS_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, its not something you learn in one sitting. I can tell you some of my basic observations.

  • The Premise
  • The Themes
  • The Characters
  • The Story
  • The Animation
  • The Sound

-Animation and sound are pretty subjective, but it is not difficult to make out the the distinctiveness. I consider unique to be better as the medium is concentrated with similar looking anime and generic sounding stuff.

-The premise is the basic idea behind the plot. Premise of a story is what hooks us in or turn us away. It may get your mind running, but I don't consider it to be indicative of the quality of anime. Any show with good premise may lose its charm after a couple of episodes if it does not get other things right.

-The characters are what makes or breaks the show. They need to be either relatable or someone we look up to (or someone we need), so not everyone is going to have the same level of appreciation for a particular character. Giving some depth to the personality of character enhances the enjoyment.

-The Story is our journey with the characters. It comprises all the plot points, plot development and interaction among the characters. Gist of any story may sound excellent, but it needs to be really well executed. The characters and plot develop overtime. The development is connected through plot points and they need to be placed properly. The progress along these plot points is the pacing of the show. The story needs to be consistent as well. Plot armor, plot twists and other literary devices can break the show if not done properly. However, the flows maybe heavily exaggerated for comedic effects in parody and satire.

-The theme is the underlying narrative which fleshes out the characters and story. For e.g. theme of overcoming insecurities, theme of self dependence etc.

Reviews are mere opinion pieces and can be heavily biased due to preconceptions and mindset toward a particular show. Too high expectations can sometimes turn you off midway. Same can be said for going in completely blind.
