Been studying python for a few weeks hit a wall, I don't know what to do with the information I take In. I know what dictionaries are, lists ect. Have imported and installed libraries but find It incredibly hard to take what I've learned and apply It independently. How do I overcome this?
>>53799736
I am learning python as well. Read more books, man. Knowing what lists and dictionaries are isn't shit unless you can use them effectively. Importing stuff isn't shit either. You need to read books. Read some books. Video lessons ain't shit. Read. Get off codecademy and read some books. Also, there is a secret resource out there that 99% of people who are learning code are using.
>>53799873
Is the secret resource books? Can I get a recommendation? Read some of Automate the boring stuff and learned looping but I don't see Its practicality In my life.
>>53799736
Try implementing different data structures from scratch. Like linked lists, doubly linked lists, binary trees, stacks, queues, etc.
Sophie Kleeman, writes at Gizmodo that according to a study at the University of Michigan people who are more sensitive to written typos and grammatical errors are indeed the kinds of 'Type A assholes' everyone already suspects them to be. Researchers gathered 83 people and had them read emails that either contained typos ("mkae" or "abuot"), grammar errors (to/too, it's/its or your/you're), or no spelling mistakes at all. Participants were asked at the end of the experiment whether or not they'd spotted any grammatical errors or typos in the emails, and, if so, how much it had bothered them. The researchers then asked the participants to complete a Big Five personality assessment -- which rates where they are on a scale of openness, agreeableness, extraversion/introversion, neuroticism, and conscientiousness -- as well as answer questions about their age, background, and attitude towards language. People who tested as being more conscientious but less open were more sensitive to typos, while those with less agreeable personalities got more upset by grammatical errors. "Less agreeable participants showed more sensitivity to 'grammos' than participants high in agreeability," the researchers said, "perhaps because less agreeable people are less tolerant of deviations from convention."

The study also finds people who don't capitalize their I's are underage children. "Didn't everybody already know this?", remarked a linguist at Princeton University.

Gizmodo, eh? Heh.
What's the deal?
Are they good? Bad? Do you even think about them at all?
Afterburner is nice.

Built many desktops with msi mobos, never had any issues. Personally I buy Asus for myself but have no gripes with msi
Make good GPUs and and mobos are pretty decent. Customer support has also been pretty good for me, very fast rma process. They are definitely the most ricer when it comes to aesthetics though.
Why are their GPUs usually the cheapest option?

I have a problem /g/, I installed the deepin DE just to see how it looks, the problem is that it sucks, I can not open anything and it doesnt let me change to my xfce desktop from the welcome screen (manjaroo).
I can not even open the terminal because there isnt any icon, how can I at least open the terminal to remove this DE
Sorry for not using any question marks, the keyboard is set to english and I dont know how to use it.

>>53799446
Dude, I didnt have any problem using it with xfce, the problem began when I installed deepin
Nvm, ill install debian and never come back to arch again.
uh oh
>When you install Oculus Home a background service with full permissions is spun up and never spun down. This service is used to detect when the rift is turned on so it can automatically launch the rift, but it is also used to constantly communicate with facebook servers.
>Now this should be concerning, if you look at Oculus' privacy agreement you will find these:
>>Information Automatically Collected About You When You Use Our Services. We also collect information automatically when you use our Services.

>So considering Facebook used to allow messanger to passively listen to your conversations using your phone's mic so it could better target ads
, this should be concerning. A bit further in Oculus's privacy agreement you will find:

Why is Apple flying a pirate flag?
>>53799002
pirates are dirty
>>53799002
When you are at sea so long you end up taking it up the bum eventually
I'm surprised they aren't flying the US flag upside down, it would be edgier.

Looking at buying a samsung tab a 9.7 with a cracked screen for dirt cheap. Found some pretty cheap replacement screens online and was gonna repair it myself. Any one ever tried this? Is it easy to fuck up?
>>53798577
I tried this and fucked it up.
>>53798625
Anything break?
>>53798577
The problem is that it may not just be a bad screen. It really depends on how the touch screen is implemented.
>>53798435
necessary for collecting data for research
certainly there are better designs, but this is what they built for now
better ones will follow and so on

Looking to get a remote for my PC, hoping you guys can help.
Ideally I'd like something cheapish, with 8-12 mappable buttons that works over usb or bluetooth. A scroll wheel or click wheel would be great too.
Something like the Wacom Express Key Remote pictured.
Any ideas?

I was also considering getting something like this, but I don't know if they can pair with a pc and I don't know how I could remap the buttons or possibly the joystick.
Seem like it might be viable?
And my other avenue of thought would be a wireless numpad, and I could try to custom map the keys, but I want to use it for photoshop and I like using the number keys to control opacity, I'd rather not change that.
Is there any way to bind numpad numbers separately from main keyboard numbers?
>>53798500
google "autohotkey second keyboard" for a bunch of results. I've been thinking about it but haven't tried it yet. I want to do the same thing - use an extra numpad as a hotkey pad

What does /g/ thing of Linux Mint?
>>53798117
Very easy to use. Was one of my firsts. I'm with Debian now tho.
>>53798188
I personally love it's ease of access too, it's great for newbies and long time users alike imo.
It's a solid distro, though not cutting edge. If it works for you, then use it.
Cinnamon is a very good DE too.
