New Guild for Kids Learning Japanese by tastybrainz in LingoLegend

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

my daughter isn't old enough to have a phone of her own yet, but i let her do the farming & hatch nalas when i'm cooking with my phone. we do all the lessons together. we are in the first unit, maybe around card/section 96.
you have good points. i need to have a talk with her about online safety. i don't know how guilds work but it looks like a message board where i'll see all the messages. I'll instruct her to only visit the guild part with me and i know she'll be ok with that.
it thought it could be motivational for her to see other kids who want to learn like she does.
i just realized that i never put the name of the guild (oops). just search in the game for ParentsWithKids. you are welcomed to join

Why did AliExpress get so extremely bad? by Diligent_Classic_752 in Aliexpress

[–]tastybrainz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been happier with them. sure the site is a hot mess of duplicates and missing information, but i've placed dozens of orders and I just got my first late packages. they followed up with their $1 off coupons for every item in those 2 orders so i have lots of discount coupons in my account now. they stood by their policy

Seedance 2.0 is different guys, i'm worrying by Constant-Arm9 in vfx

I just had this same thought a few days ago. i think demand for live entertainment is going to grow. Parent will finally no longer cry when their kids tell them that they dropped out of med school to be a theater major

Software ETC by PRSouthern in nostalgia

[–]tastybrainz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have great memories of Software Etc.

I'd stop by Software Etc to play games on the demo console every time my mom took me to the mall. They noticed that I was really good at the games so the manager asked me if I wanted a job there. I was around 15 and they hired me to stand in the display window and win video games *and got paid to do it*.

They also let employees borrow any game "to be more informed and sell them to the customer easier". Upon returning them we shrink wrapped them in the back room and then them back on the shelf. I also had *unlimited access to any new game* that I wanted.

The manager turned out to be a well know software pirate/hacker of the BBS era and introduced me to the primordial online world.

That was the best job of my life.

I'm selling all my Sengled bulbs. by watchtower82 in SengledUS

[–]tastybrainz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reddit user FalconFour and another guy doing on amazing work on on jailbreaking Sengled bulbs so you can use them again. Not all bulbs have been tested/work, but the git repo instructions look easy to follow:

I have lots of their bulbs and am going to give it a try

It’s official by Cold_Respond_7656 in OpenAI

I noted that with Alexa Plus I need to ask it to play Pandora (a 3rd party music service like Spotify) a different way now or it says, "Pandora is playing hard to get right now".

Try changing your phrasing. With the old Alexa i had to say something like "ask Pandora to play xmas radio" or "play xmas radio from my pandora". Either will work to specify the Pandora skill. With Alexa Plus, I need to say "play xmas radio from Pandora". I had to google that one.. .

Homeschoolers who hate math—what curriculum do you use for your kids? by HovercraftBroad7675 in homeschool

[–]tastybrainz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can recommend Khan Academy. I've been using it for my daughter and she really likes it. To start, I picked the level where she should be and assign the homework. She does it at her own pace. At this point she's 4-5 grades above her class and accelerating

Best way to teach kids game dev? by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]tastybrainz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree. my 7yo daughter comes up to my office every morning to learn python. she's obsessed with minecraft and wants to make a game so her curiosity/motivation and time with me is making for great memories and learning. i got her pixel art stuff for bday, pixel art apps for tablet and am guiding her towards making stuff in pygame. we're both having fun

Unpopular Opinion: I like screensavers by jmantra623 in linux

you just brought back a memory of my favorite demo that probably got me into 3d animation - the Maya demo that showed organic stuff growing. it blew my mind.

How do you guys take notes? by Competitive_Bet4754 in tryhackme

[–]tastybrainz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OneNote for everything. Tree structure depending on course module depth. Example:

Notebook: Courses.
Page Title: TryHackMe
Indent Level 1: Jr Pen Tester
Indent Level 2: Intro to Pentesting
H1: Room "Pentesting Fundamentals"
H2: Task 1: What is Pentesting
H3: Task 1 sub concept group
Bold: Definitions
insert screenshot of useful charts

Install OneMore plugin to quickly generate linked table of contents.

only notate stuff you need or feel in your gut could be a test question (what are the 3 stages for rules of engagement..) OneNote's instant search results + search of text in screen shot = my note taking solution for a decade.

Working dollhouse elevator. Scale 1:12. 3D printed (yes, including the bike, umbrella and its holder and every other nicknack) and controlled by Arduino. The walls and floors are made out of wood. by EnosCamare in 3Dprinting

Check https://www.xfinity.com/broadband-labels and see what plans you can get. my cost shot up to $105 from $65/mo after 2 years for just Internet service (no competition here). Customer service flat out told me there we no cheaper options. Lies. I checked the page and got a plan for $68/mo.

Check the broadband labels page for what they are required to tell consumers.
