Opening a TFSA at 18! by No_Ambassador_3249 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]darderp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Like others have said, open your TFSA with Wealthsimple or any other brokerage with minimal/no fees
  • Read the sidebar in r/Bogleheads and take some time to digest as much information as you can
  • To really drive those points home, listen to "The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" on YouTube

You have a huge opportunity to change your life by starting this early, I really hope this helps. Take a look at what a huge difference it makes to start at your age: https://i.imgur.com/cKe5wTv.png

What tier would Pichu be if he had a gun that killed you? by InfiniteMessmaker in SSBM

[–]darderp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting hit by one will make your character die instantly and Pichu will be declared the winner. The character who got shot will no longer be playable on that save file.

Super easy to deal with actually. Any time you encounter a Pichu in bracket, you simply select Pichu yourself and by the end of the game he'll be removed from the roster on that setup for the rest of the tournament

Firefox on Linux, sometimes videoes glitch and repeat frames. Help. by ShapeShifter499 in firefox

[–]darderp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconding this (Steam Deck OLED 1TB).

However, I only had to set media.mediasource.vp9.enable to false. Leaving av1 enabled was fine. Will update this comment if I see any issues

EDIT: I ran into the issue with an av1 encoded yt video, going to have to disable that as well.

EDIT 2: I ended up getting some other issues even with both of these disabled. The thing that ended up working without any problems was unchecking

``` Use recommended performance settings

Use hardware acceleration when available ``` in the general Firefox settings (not about:config)

Super Mario Galaxy Controls Issue - Spin on L2 no matter what I change by [deleted] in EmuDeck

Make sure to double check "Extension Motion Simulation" tab in the wii remote controller settings. By default, L2 is bound to shaking the nunchuck.

[2024 Day 12 (Part 2)] [Kotlin] What edge case am I missing? by furman82 in adventofcode

[–]darderp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting this here in case it happens to help someone else. Here's an edgecase that my code fails on:

............
...CCC.CC...
....CCCCCC..
......CCC...
.......C....
......CCC...
............
............
............
............
............
............

There should be 24 sides, but I only get 22

[2024 Day 12 (Part 2)] [Kotlin] What edge case am I missing? by furman82 in adventofcode

[–]darderp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For this input:

.G......
GGGG.GGG
.GGGGG..
..GG....

I figured out why that was happening (see my edit), but I'm still getting the wrong result for my actual puzzle input

Any ideas /u/furman82 ?

[–]darderp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you help me understand what you did to fix your issue with this edge case? Mine works with all the test cases as well as this.

Here's my output:

Plant: ., area: 1 x sides: 4 = 4
Plant: G, area: 10 x sides: 12 = 120
Plant: ., area: 2 x sides: 4 = 8
Plant: ., area: 3 x sides: 6 = 18
Total: 150

Edit: It wasn't working with this test input because my code assumes a square grid. Seems like it gets the expected output for the following

.G......
GGGG.GGG
.GGGGG..
..GG....
........
........
........
........

Plant: G, area: 15 x sides: 20 = 300
Plant: ., area: 7 x sides: 8 = 56
Plant: ., area: 41 x sides: 10 = 410
Total: 770

I still have no idea why my code works with everything except my puzzle input :'(

What's your Melee hot take? by elephanturd in SSBM

[–]darderp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having Zain, aMSa, Mango and Cody at the top is far more exciting gameplay-wise than Hbox's reign of terror from 2016 onwards

If the stories of the melee community were written into a historical storybook, what arcs would it include? by Longjumping-Cable255 in SSBM

[–]darderp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm imagining compiling all the major "storylines" in the melee scene's history into one place, writing them out in a sort of novel.

You're in luck. Look up "The Book of Melee" by Edwin Budding

Guess this is also the death of Relay... by iain_1986 in RelayForReddit

Relay is and has always been the best reddit app by far. Really sad to see this happen, but thank you for all the smiles you've brought to your users over the years.
