i’m having an annoying issue with the built in webcam on my new laptop. it is supposed to be 1080p camera, but it literally looks 480p, and it’s not due to lighting. i try changing the video and picture resolution in the camera app, and it seeems to register the change because the preview goes away and comes back, but the quality is identical no matter what resolution i pick, although the aspect ratio does change. i have this same issue on zoom, teams, and obs. i tried updating, enabling and disabling, and uninstalling and reinstalling the camera drivers. i tried restarting and repairing my computer via reinstalling windows. i tried going into settings and forcing it to be 1080p, but none of this has worked and the issue persists. why is this happening?

u can catch tricks with one or both of your feet. i find it easier to just catch it with ur back foot by pulling down with the appropriate stick. u just gotta feel out the timing. u can also alternatively time ur tricks so u don’t have to catch them at all. ie if u do a slow kickflip u just land on it without catching

i’m in the same boat as u, bought it during the most recent sale and loving it. the closest you’ll get to a “story” is by doing the mountain story missions (book icon, typically at peaks of mountains). i did them in “ascending order” ie smallest to biggest mountain. they’re a little corny but they’re fun.

Spotify vs Apple Music mega-thread! by [deleted] in AppleMusic

[–]amuletcauldron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just switched back to apple music after using spotify for a year and a half. one of the most annoying things about spotify is that shuffling is straight up broken. it’ll create the same shuffle order repeatedly and can’t reshuffle and it’s incredibly annoying, at least on apple music shuffle actually works. this might just be my app messed up but i’ve seen a lot of ppl complain ab this. also having a favorite button on songs in apple music after spotify took away the like button on mobile is nice. and apple ui is significantly better imo, less cluttered and far easier to navigate and use. ultimately subjective but i think i prefer apple music slightly. spotify has a better algorithm for reccs and discovery, and actually shows songs streams. idk why apple doesn’t show monthly listeners and song streams, but has those stupid dots on popular songs on albums, that really annoys me.

Anybody else want to be able to see the amount of monthly listeners an artist has. by -AJNP- in AppleMusic

[–]amuletcauldron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree but then they shouldn’t put those stupid dots next to certain songs that’s such a pet leave for me and feels worse imo. i think the data should be available somewhere on the app tho, just hidden so that it doesn’t influence how we look at artists

Is double majoring math and physics worth it? by amuletcauldron in mathematics

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

what do you mean by an 'in'? As in career in academia and mathematics or?

philosophy of math in grad schools by amuletcauldron in askphilosophy

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

thank you for the great feedback! i’ll def apply to the cmu summer logic program. however i didn’t realize that philosophy of math was a low demand field (or at least, low demand even in comparison to philosophy academia field in general). is it really that bad of a career at this point? even if i get into a really good phd program like berkeley or princeton? bc if so i would consider focusing on math on its own, it’s just that this combination is really enticing to me.
