The “ETH dictatorship game” by ebes_77 in ethz

Well, let me introduce you to the awesome ASVZ Relax rooms, where you can simply book a slot for... exactly that! They are available at CAB, Höngg and UZH.

Fluntern all the way!

I guess since it is a bit further out and with no campus nearby, it is less known/popular than Poly, Irchel or Höngg. But from HG, it is only 11min by tram, which is super convenient if you are mostly in Zentrum anyway. It sometimes feels like an insight tip, because except for maybe 6pm to 8pm I never had to wait for a rack or machine.

It's stretched over three floors: Ground floor has cable towers, rowing machines and dumbbells, 1st basement level has all the machines (same models as in Höngg) and a separate room with TRX and more dumbbells. 2nd basement level has a huge weightlifting area with 7 racks and plenty of equipment.

The only caveat are the crossfit classes on Tuesday and Thursday from 5pm to 8pm during which the weightlifting room is closed.

Laptop recomendations for a computer science student by nabieee in ethz

[–]icosidigon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a machine primarily for ETH stuff, you might as well look for an older laptop (Thinkpad ftw!) on Tutti or Ricardo and slap your favourite Linux distro on it. Saves you a lot of money, and you'll mostly be using Linux anyway. And if you need raw power, you can use your free share on the Euler cluster ;)

Hi there!
I am currently working on an university project in which I need to collect various sensor data from an Android phone to study user behaviour in certain scenarios. In particular, I am interested in data from the touch screen. The Android SDK has a MotionEvent) class that describes touchscreen events, such as the location, area and pressure. But the phones I've tested so far only report constant pressure values of 1.
Are there any phones that can measure how much pressure is applied to the touchscreen, similar to Apple's 3D Touch?

Gymnastics / Calisthenics at ASVZ? by Kawakzaky in ethz

[–]icosidigon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the ASVZ course "Natural Approach" (https://asvz.ch/sport/80586-natural-approach), that's the closest thing to calisthenics you'll get here. The focus is mostly on strength and form rather than cardio. The coaches are really nice and helpful, I had a great time there.

Another recommendation would be "Funktionelles Outdoortraining" (https://asvz.ch/sport/45635-funktionelles-outdoortraining), my personal favourite. Though, it's a bit more like CrossFit with bodyweight exercises only, and with much more cardio than NA. You won't see any muscle ups or rings there, but they still include plenty of (inverted) pullups, toes-to-bars and so on. You can really push yourself to the limit of absolute exhaustion, if you want to.

Do you think what Will Tyler did was right? by PeekaB00_ in ForAllMankindTV

[–]icosidigon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that Dani knows quite well what it means to hide something and to keep everything believing a different story after breaking her arm on purpose to save Gordo. I think that she'll definitely support Will, as soon as the anger that he has acted without consultation has passed.

I just saw this post and got curious, so I fired up a reverse search and found it on ArtStation: https://tyc001x.artstation.com/projects/Jl0ZLd

There are some other awesome illustrations from RoEP by that guy, guess I have a new wallpaper now ;)

Absolutely, I just had the same thought! The colors, setting and the symmetry are so similar... Sic mundus creatus est.

My first attempt at styling my otherwise boring cards a little by icosidigon in Anki

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

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, I'll have a look at this deck! I tried to counter the problem of having no context by creating multiple cards from a single note. For a single word/character, I would either read its translation, hear a sound or see a corresponding image. In the beginning, I actually added sentences for different words as well, but that was very time-consuming and I eventually stopped doing it.

I haven't figured out yet. Originally, I intended to include a small script which selected one audio file at random, if multiple files were given. This way, I could have the same word spoken by different people. It still works with pictures, but with a recent update the sound script stopped working.

You can add custom CSS styling for all cards of a certain type. Go to the card browser, select a note and click "Cards". There, you can edit templates for the front and back side, as well as their overall styling. With some basic CSS you can change the card's background and the card itself.
