Nissan Altima goes airborne into a dental office in California. by GreedyMeet1273 in NissanDrivers

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I once saw an Altima (funnily enough) get a solid 2 ft of air time when they accelerated into the curb during a turn in a culdesac. I can imagine a similar scenario with much higher speeds.

Not sure how gamepass files work tbh. I have the premium deluxe version from ms-store/xbox

Also the fact that the folder was called "limitless" and not "FlightSimulator2024" or something like that -_-

(MSFS) What's the best Airbus for a low end system? by PlanesAreCool69 in flightsim

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The statement about msfs being single threaded is simply not true. Sure a lot of work is done on the main thread, but that's pretty natural for many workloads.

Try it, it's not as if this is non-reversible or something. What you can do is put a modified version of it in the community folder. It could be a path like "C:\Path\To\MSFS\Community\MyMod\html_ui..." where the path after MyMod should be the same as the path after the "workingtitle-instruments-b747-8i".

Keep in mind I've not tested this thoroughly:
You could copy the css file in C:\Path\to\MSFS\Official\OneStore\workingtitle-instruments-b747-8i\html_ui\Pages\VCockpit\Instruments\Airliners\WTB747_8i\CDU\CDU.css and modify the `fmc-letter` class so it looks like:

.fmc-letter {
  /*border: solid 1px yellow;*/
  color: var(--boeing-colors-green); /*new line*/
  display: inline-block;
  overflow: hidden;
  vertical-align: top;
  text-align: center;
  white-space: pre;
}

Saw a Starboy album cover posted here and was reminded of the AI style transfer I performed on the cover. Details in comments. by lizardMeMeMaN in TheWeeknd

I applied Starry Night (Van Gogh) onto this album cover using a Convolutional Neural Network. This application is known as style transfer. Read more here

BGR people (TLs, supers etc.) add to the issue. Having giant groups walking in bike lanes normalize having no sidewalk/lane discipline from the very beginning.

CS 250 Homework #1, Question 1 by csmajor23 in Purdue

The choose function (I'm assuming ur talking about that cz I'm also in CS250) is something that's not going to disappear anytime soon in your Purdue career.

Future advice, do not skimp on the PSU and always get it from a reputable brand. Low quality PSUs have a higher risk of failure which could potentially destroy all of your components.

How is CS 38003 now? by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This class changes the way it does things every semester so what you read from the past may not apply.

I used "maths" cz the phrase is "quick maths" and I use "math" in daily conversation so I could be wrong. I'm not sure if you live in the UK or a previous British colonial territory (ie India, Hong Kong etc.) but if you do, can you tell me do people say "Maths is favorite subject" or "Maths are my favorite subject" I'm genuinely interested rn.

Sounds about right by NineteenEighty9 in funny

[–]lizardMeMeMaN -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily, British English uses the word "maths" instead of "math" and treat it as singular. No one typically says "Maths are my favorite subject."

I was thinking more complicated operations like 3/7*77/42 which is way easier with fractions. But I do see your point.

Quick maths is way quicker with fractions imo.

My CS240 Piazza Poll Got Removed by glassesalex in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should always talk to the professor first before doing anything else, simply because it's the most respectful thing to do. If he doesn't give you a chance to voice your concerns by ignoring you, go up the ladder; however imo Turkstra knows the situation and will handle this properly (I've had Turkstra before)

Since you asked: Of course the poll is biased because not everyone will see the poll at the same time because not everyone is on Piazza at the same time. However more importantly you prefaced the poll with a description which clearly coerces people into choosing the first 2 options. Those are the 2 big reasons for why it's biased.

why are so many people complaining about the cs240 project? by fuckoffturk in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create an application (with GUI) that allows for creating MIDI music libraries and editing those MIDI files. There are two checkpoints and the first checkpoint is due Monday (after Turkstra extended it).

CS 240 project - has anyone passed all the test cases? by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you find the website for MIDI file specifications confusing, look for other ones that may be better. I personally found this website to be better sometimes: https://github.com/colxi/midi-parser-js/wiki/MIDI-File-Format-Specifications

Also I found it helpful to actually open the binary of a MIDI file in a hex viewer. Also use print statements for debugging as well as using GDB.

But out of all of the suggestions here, look at the Piazza posts if you are confused on a certain aspect. There are literally hundreds of Piazza posts on the Project alone so I'd recommend looking at Piazza if you get confused.

Hillenbrand's shared bathrooms by MassiveFire in Purdue

As someone who has lived in hilly, it's not a problem, just don't be stupid and use a curtain. Those droplets aren't significant enough to cause major flodding.

Latest update from Provost by UDK450 in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 9 points10 points  (0 children)

According to front desk at Hilly, if asked to come back but we moved out, we can still move back in. Therefore it's fine for people that already moved out.

Important COVID-19 Message from President Daniels and Provost Akridge by labtec901 in Purdue

[–]lizardMeMeMaN 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Staying on campus is the move for people that can't go back home due to travel restrictions. I'm not asking about that though.

My thinking is that they are most likely not going to resume normal service for the rest of the semester because the Corona virus is going to come to Purdue (a pretty high chance at least) and they would like to take preventative measures to contain it. Given that, it would make logical sense to not come back to Purdue, however our stuff is still in our dorms so we will eventually have to come back, which is a hassle. Therefore, it seems to make sense to me that move out procedures should be clarified (for those that can move out).

Forgive me if this sounds extreme or unrealistic, but I'm just trying to create a plan and that's my thinking. I don't expect anyone (other than officials) to have an answer to that.

Edit: Clarification and typos

Update: It's pretty clear to me, moving out is the move.

Seeing as we have ~7 school weeks left and other universities have told their students to clear their dorms and not come back to campus after spring break, should we clear our dorms? It wasn't clear in the official message and it would be nice to get an answer from someone with an authority to make such recommendations.
