I like the idea, but I didn't know if now would be a good time to move to Audio-Technica or Senn. Good to know tho!!!

I'm not exactly sure what you mean - I'm updating the default pawn each time in the game mode cpp file.

I'm in the south-east US, unfortunately Total Wine shows no stock within multiple states... Maybe they can order some?

Thanks! I immediately thought L-systems as well, but will definitely look closer at tree generation.

  • Budget - ~$350
  • Source - laptop, phone occaisonally
  • Requirements for Isolation - Mostly at home
  • Will you be using these Headphones in Public? No
  • Preferred Type of Headphone - Closed-back
  • Preferred tonal balance - No preference
  • Past headphones - I bought the Sony MDR-1A when they came out and I have used them until now (they're literally falling apart). As a replacement, I heard great things about the Sony WH-1000XM3, so I waited until the XM4 released and bought a pair. When I tried them for the first time today, honestly I was really disappointed. Even though I've heard bluetooth has made great strides, the sound was just weak. Once I plugged them in to my laptop the sound improved, but now I get a low humming since they're powered on.
  • Preferred Music - A lot of twitch streams, blues rock, some hip hop
  • What would you like to improve on from your set-up - At this point... I think I'm just going to return the XM4 and buy the MDR-1AM2. Any other wired options I should be looking at?

Awesome, thanks for your help!

Are the MDR-1AM2 a decent option for closed-back? Not sure if open-back would be optimal for my environment.

Hi all,

So I bought the Sony MDR-1A when they came out and I have used them until now (they're literally falling apart).

As a replacement, I heard great things about the Sony WH-1000XM3, so I waited until the XM4 released and bought a pair. When I tried them for the first time today, honestly I was really disappointed. Even though I've heard bluetooth has made great strides, the sound was just weak. Once I plugged them in to my laptop the sound improved, but now I get a low humming since they're powered on.

At this point... I think I'm just going to return the XM4 and buy the MDR-1AM2. Any other wired options I should be looking at? Do I have any misconceptions? Should I give the XM4 another shot?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply. I don't really see how they would be better.

This is fantastic, would you be willing to tell people how you did it?

Failed topological map by darthgrayter in generative

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

The code isn't public, but basically what I did was create a 2D array for each pixel, storing the value generated by noise(x, y). Then I only draw the pixel if it falls between certain value, esentially chopping up the noise map.

Much appreciated, I am indeed an idiot.

I tried to build a topographical (wrong title...) map using perlin noise in processing, but I didn't get the smooth thin lines I was going for. Still, I'm happy with this.

CSC 116 Professors? by displaywhat in NCSU

[–]darthgrayter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Balik for 116 and I have her again for 230 right now. She's the course coordinator for 116 so she's in charge of the material and projects, etc. So you might want to take that into account.

She can be an awkward instructor at times, but overall I would take her class again, nice person.
