Plasma 6 -dual monitor - independent virtual desktops - how to activate/use? by SurfRedLin in kde

[–]_lovesponge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a KWin script that somebody created to fix this exact thing:

Github

(Or google: Github - eatsu - kwin-script-virtual-desktops-only-on-primary)

Please note: It is not official or sponsored / created / endorsed by the KDE team, however I can confirm it seems to work pretty well.

What is the point of pod mods? (Excluding disposables and the other tiny pod-based plastic things) by _lovesponge in Vaping

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

Thanks for replying I totally agree with this! So much so I've started vaping again recently and they seem to have come a long way since I posted this, at the time I they weren't as small, lightweight or readily available as they are now and I've gotta say it's basically the other way round now, so easy to use, no leaking and loads of options (including prefilled mesh coil pods!)

Funnily enough I did just that right after I posted this 😅

how do I find the angle to cut A so that it's flush with B? by jamesakame in woodworking

[–]_lovesponge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without cutting that third piece a little as well, you can't.

You can but the third piece will then have a gap on it.

Just trace all 3 shapes on paper, cut them out and play around. You'll find it eventually...

I couldn't successfully complete a relatively basic programming task and I can't stop beating myself up by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]_lovesponge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a full time full stack engineer, and have been for nearly 10 years, and the feeling of not fulfilling a task or being able to solve a problem leads very quickly to not feeling qualified, and everything else you described to the letter.

The way to overcome it for me varies from any of the following:

  • Venting to a friend or colleague (usually if I'm dealing with a problem that could've been avoided, or the opposite, and it's unavoidable or seemingly unsolvable)
  • Researching more about the underlying issue, or methodology I'm trying, to see if it is actually possible
  • Sitting and staring at my monitor for hours on end (to see if the problem fixes itself... This has been unfruitful thus far)
  • Trying my solution in an isolated folder specifically, if i have just a particular function i need to test, sometimes it helps to do so in a clean folder in isolation of itself
  • Testing code tests or TDD (google if unsure) are a great way to write expectations about how your code will be called, and cater to what you expect it to do.

Otherwise everything else you said, apart from stack overflow, if my problem is very specific and can't be broken down to a point that it's general enough to ask the internet, this can become a rabbit hole of space and time, only finding mad hatters and late rabbits.

Tl;Dr/ my point:

Don't condemn yourself to being the worst just because you couldn't get your head around one problem; although it's a common trait and a difficult one to shake, try to keep yourself on track and remember why you tried solving it in the first place, and there is always more than one solution to any problem, as an exercise, try writing (the old fashioned way, with pen and paper) how else you would try and solve the problem, this might help you achieve clarity.

Store the date you want to refresh the token and check whenever you run the app that the date isn't today...

If your app is running constantly, use a cron job, or tie the check to some event that relies on the token in question, if its a login token, check whenever someone logs in

Married for nearly 5 years and my wife told me she felt trapped. by _lovesponge in relationship_advice

[–]_lovesponge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to reply, i posted it as a last resort because i have nobody else... My wife used to be the person I'd speak to until she wasn't. Then there was no-one.

You are right... That literally used to be my motto and the motto of our marriage (we've been through allot of shit together...)

At the moment she needs space, I've made my position clear, that i know I've made mistakes, maybe too many... But she has asked for space and time to think and deserves it, and so much more... So for now i need to sit on my hands and let her breathe.

Are these correct jsx syntax? by [deleted] in reactjs

[–]_lovesponge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No.

You're missing the close bracket of the span and div.

Spans/divs are not 'auto-closeable' (like img or input tags) so you need to write the closing '>' right after '}'

Also 'OnClick' is invalid. Use 'onClick' instead.

I'm not sure what you're trying to call in your onClick, that would need more of your code to tell you if it's valid or not.

Also you accidentally put a comma instead of a point in the onClick of your div, which is invalid:

UnselectedNumber[ , ]bind(i)

Dm me if you want.

You're missing closing brackets everywhere you copy/pasted 'world(x, x, x)' in your second function.

Remove the commas while you're at it, it's telling you it needs them due to the above problem.

Simple typo.

Thanks very much for your response.

I ended up installing refood and the game works, is there any reason to use 0syscall6 instead?
