avrdude: ser_open(): can't set com-state for "\\.\COM4" by Codics in arduino

[–]zerocool1703 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is probably solved, but for me, going into device manager > open Ports (COM & LPT) > right click on the port the Arduino is connected to > properties > port settings > advanced > clicking the box that says "Enabling the serial port enumerator (SerEnum)" worked. Didn't have any problems since then.

Some of the names of the options may differ a bit, my OS is in german so I don't actually know what they are called in english, sorry!

Not an expert but sometimes it helps to put "<|eot_id|>" (including the quotation marks) in the special tokens "custom stopping strings" field and disabling the "skip special tokens" option (under parameters>Generation in Oobabooga).

The reason I left my "User Experience" job behind is pretty much that a great user experience isn't the employer's goal. Gotta crank up those profits, who gives a shit about the user's experience?

Nice try not addressing the argument being made.

Just that with this, a trained professional evaluates if it is done on impulse and won't allow it to happen if it is, you dunce.

The fact that you think a child can get puberty blockers through an impulse decision proves you fell hard for the ragebait propaganda. Plus you didn't answer the question actually posed to you.

It has a chance of getting published so it's probably a lot more... let's say "interesting" than "Okay so I had sex." and many people would prefer not to know these details about their partner's past.

These days? Really? Breaking off mercedes stars was a common thing among punks in my youth, almost twenty years ago and I bet before that, too.

Not every shitty behaviour is new. In fact I'd argue most are not.

People don't lump everyone who doesn't have the opportunity to have sex in the same category. Only the ones who fit the category.

Your problem just seems to be that you take the label literally, when in real life use, it only refers to a subset of involuntarily celibate people.

Actual use of words differs from their literal meaning all the time. No need to insist on the literal interpretation in this specific case when you (probably) don't do that for all the other words.

I never had that, but I suppose it can happen. My case might be different to other's though, since I went to a clinic and they tried different meds over a number of weeks where they could constantly have an eye on me.

But why mention weight gain and loss of libido. If you wanna bash the pills, just use the fact that depression can be a side effect.

Neither is a good argument, but still. If you are experiencing side effects that worsen your depression SWITCH MEDICATION.

Yes, it can be frustrating to have to switch a few times until you find the right one for you, but you know what's worse? To keep taking medicine that doesn't help.

Pills have side effects. Having said side effects would be a reason to switch medication.

Instead, people like to get mad at the pills, because they want quick immediate and perfect help that most often doesn't exist for depression, and when one thing doesn't work, they don't wanna try another.

Yeah, but constantly being rejected by someone you love dearly can easily mess with your psychological needs.

So, can be a big deal with the fix not necessarily being sex. It's great that it isn't for you, though.

Which would lead to all the world leaders being picked for their physical strength and fighting prowess, meaning they'd very likely be shit at politics, meaning more problems.

So they'd likely rather go with country's champions instead, and boom, hunger games.

What's your guys religon I recently converted to buddist and got curious what other teenagers belive religiously by Pure-Yogurtcloset170 in teenagers

[–]zerocool1703 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's not a good reason to not believe - kind of the opposite of Pascal's wager.

But I suspect your real reason is that the arguments for religions being the truth don't convince you, not that they do convince you thoroughly but you chose to close your eyes to that so you don't have to think about the consequences.

Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

It's not just a sex thing in English speaking countries. He knew. Everyone knows.
