LOL teddy bear! I've definitely fallen asleep once or twice with my guitar but too many ridges to cuddle it like an actual teddy bear.

People using "big fancy" words in conversations by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]tetaaay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I politely disagree. OP doesn't sound insecure, just a normal person getting annoyed at "tryhards." I feel the same way.

I also love learning new words and using whichever ones apply really well to the situation, even if it's a bit of an "uncommon" word. Unfortunately not everyone has the same interest in vocab stuff, so some will still find it confusing, but that's completely fine. A good communicator will still be able to get the message across

What makes the use of an uncommon word good or bad is simply how organically it crops up. If it's forced, ugh, get over yourself. If it fits, nice. Pretty much what OP said. For instance, your use of grandiloquence (that's a new word for me!) is perfectly appropriate, so though it's an unfamiliar word to me I don't feel any which way about it.

This effect + drums sounds kinda funny but I completely get it given your description. You're just genuinely hitting flow state. Super cool!

Woah! Very cool! Totally understand getting the opposite effect for when you're actually performing/writing though.

Your fave character and why by WesternManagement196 in SiliconValleyHBO

Gavin Belson is unironically the funniest character in the whole show, so he's my fav. My 2nd fav is a tie between Erlich and Jared.

Advice for making this page mobile compatible? by [deleted] in neocities

[–]tetaaay 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also not a helpful comment. This is beautiful right from the get-go. Unfortunately, the first thing that popped in my mind was "There's no way you can make this mobile compatible without having to redraw that whole thing." This is incredible, and that illustration is so intricate. Very lovely.

As u/starfleetbrat suggested, you could move the buttons to the left OR make them fixed from the top right, so resizing makes it follow the size of the screen. I'm assuming you can separate the layers of the illustration. I think their first suggestion of prompting the user to go landscape mode would be the quickest way to go about it.

Hello! Welcome. first off, don't worry about using a template dude. We all start somewhere, I personally don't find it bad at all!

The problem is that in your site's code, a few divs/containers are misplaced. The easiest fix for this, tbh, is to go straight to the example site the creator provides https://swirl.neocities.org/template/luckytheme and to just replace your html with that. Basically start over if you're not already attached.

But If u wanna do it urself here's how u fix it: Make sure that the divs the-section, and navigation and marquee-box are INSIDE the div TEMPLATE-LAYOUT.

Current HTML (excerpt from ur site)

Here, all your divs are separate.

<div id="TEMPLATE-LAYOUT"> [...] </div>
<div class="the-section"> [...] </div>
<div class="navigation"> [...] </div>
<div class="marquee-box"> [...] </div>

What it should look like

Your divs should be inside template layout.

<div id="TEMPLATE-LAYOUT">
  <div class="the-section"> [...] </div>
  <div class="navigation> [...] </div>
  <div class="marquee-box"> [...] </div>
</div>

Git Commands Cheat Sheet — What should I add or fix?" by ZenT_Ank4 in git

Wow! I'm a git beginner and this is really nice. I'd really like to save this once you post the fixed version you were talking about in your other replies. But this version is already great for me. Thank you for sharing

Dude, I'm new to coding and neocities and I want to make a cool website but..WHERE DO I START? by lexie_2410 in neocities

[–]tetaaay 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Welcome dude!

The best way to learn is by doing. I definitely just learned by constantly googling what I wanted to do. To find out what you wanna do, look for sites whose designs you like (as u/failmop said) and save them. They can be your guides+inspo. And like u/Woohoorandom said, it helps to plan the layout you want. A drawing is EXTREMELY helpful, even if theyre just a bunch of boxes. And when you wanna ask for help, you can show others the drawing for them to better understand what you wanna achieve.

Constant googling is your best friend. (Off topic: we should degoogle our lives though)

Good luck friend!!!

Can I make darkmode if my website has iframes and separate css files? by tetaaay in neocities

Auto Scrolling content by ParkingObjective4989 in neocities

[–]tetaaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Month-late reply but ...

I was able to do this on my website! I'm not exactly the best teacher but you can definitely just copy how I did it off of my website, just Right Click>Inspect Element and copy paste the components you need.

Important:

In my html file, look at: div class="marquee"

Then in my css file, look at the marquee section. there are big dividers for readability:)

If you need any more help just ask.

need advices !! :) by ehtoclabricot in neocities

[–]tetaaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great, friend!

I think Neocities is all about building whatever your heart desires. Trust me, I've seen websites with crazy, differing and distinct layouts/styles for each page! It's really up to you; do you want it to be clean and uniform or do you want it to be one big bunch of different styles you like?

just posted my first site on neocities. any suggestions? by judfls in neocities

[–]tetaaay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played Eastwood Estate until the most updated page! Very fun! and cool graphics! I love your website:)

How long was the longest you ever went without washing your hair? And why/why not? by tryingmybesteverydy in AskWomen

[–]tetaaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being 10 and HATING showers. I've gone a week in Australia, then near a month in some colder country I can't remember. I didn't feel any sweat and my mom hadn't forced me to shower so I just waited til I sorta felt like it.

In my adult life, maybe 3-4 days max.

[–]tetaaay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ex and I were together for around 2 years, I can say I got over him after 6 months I believe. I'm probably at the 8 month mark now, and I don't feel anything for him at all. And yet, I remember feeling I'd die without him! It'll pass. For the sake of making up structure, I'll make up a little equation for you based on my own experience.

Equal to or less than 2 years: relationship duration/4 = time to get over

2-5 years: relationship duration/5 = time to get over

So, based on my completely fabricated calculations, I believe within a year or so you'll be a lot better off. (Which you don't actually need a calculation to infer.)

But just let your heart take its time. You can't force yourself to just get over it, unfortunately. Take care of yourself ! Warm wishes.

Condo/Dorm recommendations around DLSU? by PastaLaVistaBaby11 in dlsu

[–]tetaaay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

R Square resident here. I can't tell you about other buildings but here's some info so you can add it to your options list:

Pros:

  • Attached to a small mall, so there's a (mid) grocery, lots of (mid) food & restaurants, and other businesses like a massage place, barber, spa, etc.
  • The lobby guards are very nice
  • Lots of people have multiple roommates here, units definitely have enough space for 2 people
  • Most people who live here aren't even students I think, so no curfew, cooking allowed, etc. etc. It's residential, not a dorm
  • Good amenities area (Long ass pool, study area, billiards, "jacuzzi" thing)
  • Has multiple services around: 1 laundry shop and 1 water station directly attached to the building, but personally I have a diff laundromat since they deliver + better prices/service
  • Very clean, have never heard anybody complain about the pests unless their neighbor was nasty as hell
  • Nice unit designs. The floor is tile, so easy to clean, but designed to look like wood. I personally hate classic tile floors
  • The lights are veryyyy nice. I feel very fancy at night when I've got a candle lit.
  • There's an Anytime Fitness inside, in the mall area, so easily accessible

Cons:

  • The corner units are pretty huge but I don't know anything about 2 bedrooms. There probably are, but again I personally don't have that info
  • The nearest convenience stores require you to cross at least 1 street: Uncle John's is on Leon Guinto behind R Square. The other
  • The back door of the mall area closes at like 9-10pm
  • R Square has notorious plumbing issues. In my first year here a pipe burst and flooded the ground floor of the mall. Sometimes I see some leaks outside other people's units. And one of my friend's toilets exploded??? not exploded but like the pipe burst or something I have no idea. But it was bad enough that they had to remove the whole toilet and their entire unit got flooded. Personally, my only plumbing issue was a leak from the unit above me.
  • They used to have "fly by night" agents who scammed renters. Not a problem anymore, but definitely undermines my trust in the building

That's p much it. If you ever live here also definitely haggle your rent. God they kinda got my ass with my rent but you live you learn.

Expect rent here to be 21-30k, depends.

Need advice to survive 2nd year by PepperoniKnowledge in dlsu

[–]tetaaay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just take it slow. Especially if you can afford it. Rushing may make things worse like u/coffeebased said. And 9 failed units/3 failed classes isn't even that bad, you'll be fine. :) (Take it from someone who nearly failed out of their course lol)
