most games just add crazy/tedious requirements to 100% them, which just sucks.

I'm the kind of player that like to 100% games but when this means going out of my way to do it I'm usually just dropping the game (except for some rare exceptional games) and even worse if a game grades me and I don't get perfect score, this one always drives me nuts haha.

so I'm looking for games that are fun to 100% (preferably in 1 run, not new game+ and other things like that, just the ability to replay missions to do better)

I've noticed in the past few years that game start to make me motion sick (headache, dizziness, excessive sweating), which is a big bummer, I really like video games, and long, immersive sessions even more.

just now I started playing Lego star wars, and after 30-40 minutes I've gotten motion sick (and I turned off head bobbing).

I'm interested if there are some solutions for this to be able to enjoy and play games longer

I don't know how to define this kind of movie other than quiet.

They make me feel more emotions than many other, more "emotional" movies.

If those kinds of movies are a spesific genre, I would love to know to look for more.

Anyway, I'm looking for more movies like these; I think what hooks me is the scope, the intimacy, the sound, and the feeling.

Weird how I thought about it, but recently there's this meme about Spider-Man battling the entire X-Men, so a song that captures the feeling of an honorable one vs everyone, where he's bruised and scarred but keeps on going forward, with dedication out of this world.

Pretty much the title says it all.

I've been using Gemini Pro for the last year, and I have nothing really to compare it with, so I don't know which one would be best for my next year.

I'm not looking for something to write lots of code for projects, but a model that will be able to teach me subjects from 0 instead of bad lectures and courses.

Such model would have to be good at math and physics, as well as explaining things so reasoning is important, large context window since I might dump a big file on it to search for something specific in it (like a sub-subject in a textbook, or a specific figure in a spec or whatever), a good amount of tokens per day, I don't want to run out for the majority of the day - Gemini plan where there are 3-4 "refresh windows" for tokens is a great concept, since at the worst case I'll continue in a few hours.

I don't use the image generation features almost at all; same for most of the "creative" features. Also, I don't use the voice feature.

Ideally, I would want a common metric that is usually present when new models come out to compare models in my use case of explaining questions and answers, being good at math, and stuff like that.

I'm an EE and currently preparing for a retake exam as I failed the first one. This class is notoriously difficult because of the exam (which takes 85% of the entire grade and it isn't curved).

Here are the subjects we learned:

• Registers and Memory
• Memory Addressing and Instruction Codes
• Arithmologic and Control
• Stack and Routines
• I/O, Interrupts, and Reset
• Compilation, Linking, and Loading
• External Devices

Most of the exam was about "Compilation, Linking, and Loading" which was the subject I understood the least of and was the most difficult for me.

I want to understand everything better, but I have exhausted my lecture notes and the past exams I practiced with.

Any advice for how to understand everything on a deep level for the exam? And also sources to practice from?

Just to give a sense of the problems, here's one question of writing code (the exam is pen and paper, and just to be clear, I'm not asking for a solution; this is just an example which will probably look trivial for you guys).

>Due to the busy exam period, Danny had to stay in his room and study, missing the World Cup games. His roommates came up with an idea that would allow him to study without leaving his room: they installed a dedicated device in the living room that sends the game results directly to Danny's room. In Danny's room, there is an 8086 processor that receives the data via I/O ports.

>Unfortunately, after connecting the system, it turned out that the data transmitted over the electrical wires between the living room and the room picks up noise and occasionally arrives corrupted. To address this issue, the roommates proposed implementing error protection and correction mechanisms as detailed below.

>Technical Specification:

>The I/O device interface from the 8086:

>port 3F8h: DATA (read only)
Returns the most recently received byte.

port 3FDh: STATUS (read only)
bit 0 - DR (Data Ready): 1 = a new byte is available at port 3F8h.
0 = no new data / value already read from 3F8h.
bit 1 - OE (Overrun Error): 1 = a new byte arrived before the previous byte was read; new data replaced old.
bits 2-7 - not used.

NOTES:
- The receiver can hold exactly one byte at a time. If port 3F8h is not
read before the next byte arrives, the old byte is lost and OE is set.
- Reading port 3F8h automatically clears DR (bit 0).
- This device does not check parity in hardware — any parity checking
described below must be done by your own code.

>Parity Check Mechanism:

>A possible score of a game consists of two numbers ranging from 0 to 7 (e.g., 0-0 or 3-2). The score of the first team is encoded in bits 0, 1, 2, and the score of the second team is in bits 3, 4, 5. Bit 6 is set to 1 when the game is over. Bit 7 is the parity bit: it is set or cleared such that the total number of '1' bits in the complete byte is always even. In other words, the specification of the byte sent by the device is:

>Score Structure:
bits 0-2: Score of team A
bits 3-5: Score of team B
bit 6: 1 if the game is over
bit 7: parity

>Task Requirements:

>Write a routine that performs the following operations:

>The routine receives no input parameters.

>The routine polls and reads a new score from the device.

>The routine checks whether the data is valid according to the parity bit.

>If the data is valid, the routine returns Team A's score in register AL and Team B's score in register BL.

>If the data is invalid, the routine triggers Interrupt 42 and returns with the result -1 (for both teams).

מעניין אותי איך הולך באותם מקומות עבור אוכלוסייה נוטה מסורתית יותר מדתית.

חבר מתחתן ולא יכולתי להיות באירוע כי הייתה חתונה אחרת באותו תאריך שהייתי חייב להיות בה, אז אני רוצה לשלוח לחבר ואשתו ברכה פשוט לחתונה, אבל אני לא יודע אם גם להוסיף ביט של איזה 300 שח.

כאילו אני מקווה שזה נחשב מספיק בהתחשב בהכל.

סתם מעניין אותי מה אנשים חושבים על המצב.

(לפרוטוקול, אני סטודנט בלי עבודה והוא עובד ושיהיה ברור, הודעתי מראש אז זה לא כאילו הם הזמינו לי מנה ואז כאילו הכסף זה בשביל לפצות על המנה)

ולשאלה אחרת, האם לדעתכם אחים/אחיות צריכים להביא כסף בחתונה של אחים/אחיות שלהם? או להביא מתנה כלשהי?

I really like this hype song, it really does make me feel great working out, so I'm looking for other japanese songs with similar energy

I've read most of baki (up until the end of dou) and felt like the series as a whole peaked with the yujiro vs baki fight, do you guys have any other moment you consider to be even better? (feel free to share stuff after dou but with the spoiler tag)

you might call me a picky eater or believe there's some psychological reason but it doesn't really change anything.

I don't eat vegetables and legumes (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplant, beans, and many more) since I remember myself, and now I'm an adult and at some social settings I get some remarks about that and it's making me feel bad.

whenever I try to eat those I get a gag reflex and almost want to vomit so clearly there's some psychological thing in play.

I'm not looking at introducing some small veggies to a plate I already eat but rather a plate of legumes/veggies that is common and to make it in a certain way that I'll find tolerable and with practice I will be able to eat normally most veggies and legumes.

so I'm looking for a few of those plates I can make someday to start practicing.

also I eat kosher and I don't eat cheese (I'm not officially lactose intolerant but my guts don't like it haha)

It's been almost a year for me since I last played games I like (on PC, not some chess/sudoku on my phone), and now I have like a weird feeling when I want to start some gaming, as if it's wrong and it's not feeling like it used to.

I would love to hear from some other people who had this happen to them.

I want to buy an adjustable desk for both work standing and also walking with a walking pad, I don't have any experience working with a walking pad so this might be a waste but I figured it's worth trying at least to get some more activity in my day, since I spent most of my day sedentary either watching lectures, solving problems, practicing for exams and everything else.

when I asked around online people told me that because of the height it's much better if I take a dual motor which offers more stability around the top height, and I found such legs at an acceptable price of around 300$ (the LUMI M10E series).

but now my father's job offers him a free single motor adjustable desk which he suggested for me.

so the cons of the free one are that it's a fixed size (120*60cm) and single motor so it would probably be less stable at the top position.

but it's 300+ bucks in my pocket which would definitely help as a student that don't want to spend money on what's ultimately leisure (since I have a simple desk already).

what would you do in my position?

I don't like to take pictures of myself in general, and as a very busy student I don't really go out much.

also there's the matter of trying to attract women I would like - I'm an introvert so pictures of going out and such are kinda false, I do like solo hiking, and I want also to find similar values in a partner.

so some tips on what to do would be helpful

mostly in terms of plot/story.

I've watched a few that I really liked, some are the popular ones and some less popular.

from those I remember of the top of my head:

jobless reincarnation, slime, re zero, bookworm, finest assassin, Tanya the evil, overlord, and there are probably more obvious ones I'm missing.

so I'm looking for more quality Isekai anime I might have missed.

and more particularly I imagine a world where some religion is based on the idea that it's ultimate destiny is killing the one and only god of the world?

and not something where God is just some powerful person/being but rather something that operates on a completely different reality.

I'm watching S2, and I see that Tanya still has the silver with 1 pad, while commanding others with the same rank, and also, I want to understand the upper echelon, like in the latest episode, there was a general with 2 gold stars. Is there a wiki page with pictures about all of this? from the highest ranked to the lowest?
