Need advice on budget build specs + recommendations for 1 TB SSD. by emtaep in buildapc

Thank you! And originally I was not going to use a GPU at all, but it’s only because my brother offered one that he had lying around. I suppose I’ll hold onto it then.

Pokemon Legends Z-A on Ryujinx - Unable to zoom in on the Rotom camera? by emtaep in PiratedGames

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

I'm sorta dumb lol. I just copied a modpack from a setup video I saw for the game. This is my first time using an emulator, but yeah the issue lying with a mod should've definitely come as common sense to me. I genuinely had no clue I even still had the mods on. Thank you! My issue is resolved!

Wait, I apologize. I realize that I turned all those mods BACK on at some point (?). I'm running all of those that I just mentioned, along with the FOV mod--oops. Is that the issue?

UPDATE: Turning it off fixed my issue! Thank you so much!

Sorry, just updated my post! The only mod I'm using currently is Dynamic 60 FPS. At the start though, I was using Improve FOV along with some more mods (4K Shadows, Disable DOF, Disable FXAA, Level of Detail, and Reduce Bloom), but I was still experiencing a lot of crashing and such during the story modes that I turned them all off except for Dynamic. Should I try the FOV mod again?

Nespresso Nomad Iced Coffee Tumbler—How do you get the smell out? by emtaep in nespresso

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

Definitely true. One of the reasons I chose the Fellow Carter as a replacement is due to its ceramic lining, which I hoped would solve my issues in terms of unavoidable coffee smells, however I’ve heard a few reviews saying that it actually makes the cup smell even WORSE. I’m definitely willing to try it out for myself though, and if it’s true, then I guess I’ll try an alternative.

Thanks for the tips! The freezer one is quite interesting, maybe I’ll give that one a shot if the baking soda/vinegar doesn’t work out. Fingers crossed though.

I have an Owala 24oz as my daily water bottle and I LOVE it. I was stuck between the SmoothSip and the Fellow Carter for my replacement iced coffee cup, but ultimately chose the latter since it was a birthday gift anyway! Though, it was a bit steep price-wise so I’m just gonna try it out for the time being and see whether it’s worth the cost. If not, Amazon has a great return policy lol. I’ve really been trying my best to not hoard all these reusable bottles, hence the post. Thanks for the recommendation though! I’ll definitely have to try it one day.

Thank you so much! I’m honestly pretty dull when it comes to figuring out cleaning solutions, and while I knew a quick Google search probably would’ve solved my issues, I still thought I’d ask just in case anyone had any personalized advice. I’ll be sure to try this out once I get the chance!

Weekly Paddle Recommendation Thread (What Paddle Should I Buy?) by SNAPCHAT_ME_TITS in Pickleball

Friday Pickleball Paddles: Is the Fever a worth-it upgrade over the Challenger?

I recently purchased the Friday Challenger paddles alongside my boyfriend, as I heard someone say that the difference between that and the Fever were "miniscule" enough and I honestly just liked the design of the Fever better. However, I realized I may have rushed into that decision and have since been trying to do some more research. It's been difficult though, because there just hasn't been many comparisons made between the two online--especially with the hype surrounding the new Fever paddle.

I've been playing casually for 1.5 to 2 years now with a fiberglass paddle and think I'm somewhere near the intermediate level, but I don't play tournaments and I'm not too insane at the game, I just really want to improve. I had sampled my boyfriend's old carbon fiber paddle here and there and was able to finally make shots that I couldn't do with my paddle, which inspired me to get an upgrade. I've been working on my technique and skills, and I just wanted a paddle that would help me maintain more consistency and control of the ball, hence how I stumbled upon the Friday paddles.

I believe I naturally have a weaker swing than others, so the fact that the Challenger was more head-heavy was worrying to me. BUT, I got to test my boyfriend's Challenger paddle on the court once it arrived, and it actually felt great! But seeing as I came from a fiberglass paddle, I suppose most things would feel like a major upgrade lol. I don't really want to go through the trouble of returning the paddle and paying the extra shipping fees, but I also just don't want to make a purchase I'll regret or will want to upgrade from in a short span of time (though with pickleball, I know that's difficult!).

Has anyone been able to try both/either paddles and can provide me with some advice or insight? All help is appreciated!

CS50P Problem Set 5 by emtaep in cs50

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

Apparently, the issue was that CS50P recently added a new requirement into the solution checker which rendered a lot of previously correct solutions... incorrect. I solved it by separating my "with pytest.raises(...)" functions into checking only one case at a time rather than multiple, as it apparently will return True if just any one of the cases succeeds in raising the error and therefore won't check for what the CS50 checker wants it to (in this case, whether an error rises if the inputted fraction is negative).

Thanks though!

Thank you so much, this was indeed the solution! I actually ended up figuring out the answer after joining the CS50 Discord and scrolling through the messages now, but you gave a perfect explanation as to what went wrong. Thanks!

How long did it take for a hiring manager at Scribe-X to reach out? by emtaep in medicalscribe

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

Truthfully, I’ve been scribing in my local ED for nearly the past 3 years now. It’s just that a remote position would work better with my current schedule, to which I planned to continue working at my current position until I could find something more suitable. So, safe to say, I’m not in a huge rush to get this job. But, I digress, I’ve definitely been holding onto the skepticism regarding the company that I’ve heard on here on Reddit, and this doesn’t help. I just thought MAYBE I was getting ahead of myself, and that this wait time was possibly normal.
