Useful list-indexing trick
Useful list-indexing trick Hi all,I just found this while googling, and it sort of blew my mind. I'm writing in Python, but I guess you could use this in any language.So if you've got a list of items you want to cycle through, it's obvious to go:current_index += 1 if current_index >= len(l): current_index -= len(l) elif current_index < 0: # We can probably scroll back too. current_index += len(l) # Do stuff.Seems there is a quicker way, which seems to be foolproof, as well as a 1-liner:current_index = (current_index + 1) % len(l) # Do stuffThis works because the % operator does modulus, which is to say it returns the remainder of trying to shove the number on the left into the number on the right: 10 % 3 is 1, because 3's into 10 go a maximum of 3 times, with 1 left over.Back to lists, given the listlike:>>> l = ['first item', 'second item', 'third item'] >>> l[0 % len(l)] 'first item' >>> l[1 % len(l)] 'second item' >>> l[2 % len(l)] 'third item' >>> l[3 % len(l)] 'first item' >>> l[-1 % len(l)] 'third item' >>> l[-2 % len(l)] 'second item'My world has officially been rocked.

Re: Say the Spire, a Slay the Spire Accessibility Mod
Re: Say the Spire, a Slay the Spire Accessibility Mod I've gotten the hang of the navigation as far as using cards, potions and Relics as well as the buffers. What I'm still a little confused about is the spire map itself. I get that right stick up and down reads the different nodes, while left and right directions on the right stick explore each node. The confusing part is that the left stick, which seems to be the one that actually selects the room on the chosen node, never seems to change to a new node. So I guess my question is, how do you switch to a different node, AKA path? Or, am I totally miss-understanding how the map works? Other than that, I'm loving this game! The amount of cards is crazy and I know I haven't even come close to encountering them all!

Re: Earwax
OK,There's some on the docs, which are honestly a bit problematic because of a whole load of reasons I'll not bore you with.I've pasted the features document below, as taken from docs/source/features.rst (which I appreciate isn't really good enough):Implemented FeaturesAbility to separate disparate parts of a game into Level constructs.Ability to push, pop, and replace Level instances on the central Game object.Uses Pyglet’s event system, mostly eliminating the need for subclassing.Uses Synthizer as its sound backend.Both simple and advanced sound players, designed for playing interface sounds.A flexible and unobtrusive configuration framework that uses yaml.The ability to configure various apsects of the framework (including generic sound icons in menus), simply by setting configuration values on a configuration object which resides on your game object.Various sound functions for playing sounds, and cleaning them up when they’re finished.Different types of levels already implemented:Game board levels, so you can create board games with minimal boilerplate.Box levels, which contain boxes, which can be connected together to make maps. Both free and restricted movement commands are already implemented.The ability to add actions to earwax.Level instances with keyboard keys, mouse buttons, joystick buttons, and joystick hat positions.A text-to-speech system.An earwax command which can currently create default games.Feature RequestsIf you need a feature that is not already on this list, please submit a feature request.The following block of code is what is created with the command earwax new:"""A game created by `earwax new test.py` on 2020-10-01 05:29:35.902580."""

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election That's sort of defeatist, but you have a point. This is another failing of so-called American democracy. It's only going to be done, even if it's good for the people, if it makes the higher-ups money. Even the way Barack Obama acted is an indication of that. Yes, he did some good things, but ultimately he played safe and allowed Goldman-Sachs to exert an awful lot of influence after they and City Group ushered in the recession. Obama had and has many good qualities, and he's nobody's fool, but he definitely ensured that even democrats are simply not ready to challenge the status quo. And that makes me sad. That said, I'm sure a democrat would at least not prop up the worst of it. They'd call out the bits that need changing in an immediate way. America absolutely, no-doubt-about it, needs a leftist who will get shit moving in a more democratic direction.One of the dynamic differences between Trump and Biden last night was that Trump was focused on jobs and the economy, while Biden was focused on people and the impact that choices will have on those people. Trump's trying for the big-picture economy thing - which is why Biden said "he doesn't care about you", and Trump is trying to claim that Biden's focus on people and their needs is a pipe dream and going to cost too much. I think truly what's needed here is middle ground for now. Get things stabilized. Stop the panic, deal with the pandemic properly and with safety foremost. Try and recover the economy where possible, with a special focus on individuals and small business since they're getting hit the hardest. Then work slowly toward reforms that will do what I suggested in an earlier post.It's either that, or burn the whole thing down and go for democratic socialism after a revolution, but I don't think America is that brave or strong.

Re: 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim Discussion
Re: 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim Discussion Basically you can do it in any order you wish. There will be a point when you will be locked during story or battle segments as you will need to achieve some condition like: STart someone's story, unseal mysteries, defeat some waves of enemies etc so you can do it like you wish.To be honest this game requires OCR in all the places just to read stuff even in the story. For example at the beginning of the stories (or somewhere in the middle) you can see what year it is, and some contextual stuff. Not that important but it is always good to know.

Re: The Synthizer Thread
Re: The Synthizer Thread A quick Python question. Looking at the synthizer mannual, it says that property reading is slow. I assume this also applies to retrieveing the seek position of a generator? I have a situation where there are different audio files of the same length. (music layers) If I start playing one layer and decide to add another one some time in the future, would it not be recommended to read the first file's seek position to start the second layer at the correct position?

Re: odd screen reader issue. That's indeed very curious and something I can't say I saw before. If it was me, I would try and see if it happens without Jaws as well. If it does, then you can know it's not a screen reader issue. If it doesn't, well, fortunately it isn't too annoying to deal with. I mean, you did say it focuses on Jaws but my thoughts were that perhaps you didn't try it without Jaws.

Re: I am scared
Re: I am scared @30Ah, see, that's the thing though. Everyone loves to say how mathematical biology is, and I'm sure that if we try really hard we can find plants where they all have 4 leaves and a stem and it's all very nice. But that's not actually how this works out with plants, that only works with animals, really. Plants do all sorts of stuff all the time, hell you can even control when/where they'll grow new branches if you try. Your dog's not going to suddenly have the start of a 5th leg in the middle of its chest because it got a small cut, or something. Grab the dog's paw or whatever and you can estimate with a high degree of accuracy where the rest of the dog is, how big it is, etc etc etc. and these will be accurate. I suspect that some people aren't wired to notice those sorts of irregularities and just sort of push differences down into a category called "huh" or "irrelevant" or something and that's the end of it for them and plants, fungi, etc. are suddenly these cool things where isn't biology so regular and mathematical because I'm ignoring the 90% right now. I suspect that if I could suddenly see tomorrow, this would mostly correct itself because at that point you always know what's coming up, for lack of a better way to put it.But to be on point, maybe knowing that I'm not even going as far as "plants are poisonous! O god" and would not, in fact, like to stick my hand in your run-of-the-mill garden shrub is helpful to Meatbag. I'm fine with them, same room no problem, sure, but given the choice I'm sure as hell not interacting with it.

Re: odd screen reader issue.
Re: odd screen reader issue. I have never experienced the listed screenreader issue, but I have a really, really strange one that I challenge any of you to explain.This glitch focuses on Jaws, and the letter g.My laptop is an HP Pro-book, if that matters. 16GB of RAM, a quad-core i5 that doesn't lag at all.If I open the lip of my laptop and close it, jaws will randomly say "4", for no reason I can understand. At that point, when I open any sort of control that can be edited (a form field, data entry of any kind) the g key doesn't work. If I type fast enough, my computer will simply stop registering letters, but it always starts with g. All I have to do to fix it is restart Jaws.It's happened ever since I got this machine, and happened with Jaws 2018 and Jaws 2020. It happened after the disc was wiped and Windows reinstalled after a keyboard issue. It's an easy fix, but a really bizarre bug that I have no explanation for.

Re: odd screen reader issue.
Re: odd screen reader issue. Probably some component somewhere in the Windows folder got unregistered, and since Windows is stupid like that I don't know of an easy way to fix this. NVDA has an option called COM registration fixing tool under it's tools menu, try running that and seeing if it helps. If not, using the command prompt try typing sfc /scannow command to scan any system files and see if it reports any issues. If it was me, I'd just reinstall the system, but I know this is far from an optimal solution for everybody. Plus, I had this once on a new Windows install that just received an update which broke screen reader virtual buffers somehow, which was very annoying.

Re: Azerbaijan and Armenia war
Re: Azerbaijan and Armenia war On the one hand, maybe I'm being harsh. But on the other hand you're trying to say that you think that two countries whose populations when put together barely equals just New York City having a war is going to turn into World War III, and I don't get it. Yeah, it's bad. Every war is bad. But I feel like you either don't understand how small scale this is or how terrible World War III would be, and if you want me to take you seriously you need to start by clarifying what either of them has that's literally worth risking the planet rather than everyone just saying "we'll smash them to oblivion and split it" or whatever else anyone might do. DO they have nukes? if they have nukes, this is a different discussion, but no one is likely to sell them nukes if they don't, and it wouldn't be a World War III discussion, anyway, it would be a "great, another North Korea" discussion.The sad truth is that neither of those countries is important enough in the grand scheme of things for this to have made it as far as the U.S. news. Anyone involved directly will just get screwed over if this turns into some sort of chain reaction between whoever, and India/China or Russia/China or whoever else/whoever else will just come to some sort of agreement that leaves both of them wishing they'd not had a war, and that will be the end of that.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election lol There is no way that Trump will agree to a debate where someone has the ability to mute him.There were several moments where Biden looked into the camera and appealed directly to those watching at home. Saying things like "he doesn't care about you". Or saying, at the very end, "I won't just be a president for democrats. I'll be a president for republicans too. For all American people". I agree that we wouldn't be cutting Joe tons of slack if not ror Trump, but that's where we are. We had lukewarm and tentative vs. authoritarian batshit crazy.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Ok on social programs. Other countries do this very well, where the US is lacking. The fact of the matter is, the tax system is distributed in such as a way, as people who are low and mid income get taxed on a much higher percentage of the income the rich pay. Also, one thing I don't understand is with tax credits, and deductions, how those can stack to give people huge writeoffs. There should be changes so the rich pay a much higher percentage of the tax burdin than the poor do. Also there should be taxes in place to tax existing wealth. Like if bill gates had a hundred billion in the bank, it would never be taxed. Third, there should be a hard limit on tax deductions and credits, and most of them should be eliminated anyway. For example, people shouldn't be able to claim a child tax credit when making $40.00. I think sanders did have that among the things he would do, but he was too radical apparently for conservative democrats, who needed an idiot like Joe Biden. Also, sorry to give you bad news akman, but trump is without a doubt, absolutely racist, from the statements he made against banning muslims, from his instigation of the charlottesville riots, to his glorification of confederate history etc. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/575815/#p575815 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Help with ps 4 controller Back and forward in fighting games is always subjective to which way you are facing. In 2d and 2.5d fighting games, and i guess in most 3d fighting games as well, these are the left and right arrows, or directions on an arcade stick, no matter emwhere you play. If left makes you walk back, and right makes you walk forward, then left is back and right is forward. If you are on the other side of the screen, then the opposite is true. This is why fighting games use back and forward, rather than left and right, because back and forward can be universally applied without the need to write down the instructions a second time for the opposite direction. This is true whatever you play on, from ps4 to gamegear to n64 to pc or whatever.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election I didn't expect the debate to go well, but I certainly didn't expect it to go as poorly as it did. Firstly, I don't think anyone was expecting Joe Biden to perform very well, and he didn't. If Biden was debating with any other candidate in any other election, people wouldn't be cutting him so much slack. He did surprise me a few times with some responses he gave to the questions asked, but overall it was as much as I expected from him. Trump's performance overshadowed Biden's, depending on who you ask, in an excellent or horrible way. I feel that we're in a situation where the majority of people who are planning on voting already knew who they were voting for before the debate took place. In other words, there aren't that many undecided voters to push in any particular direction. I'd even go as far as to say that Biden's lack of energy/push back against Trump's attacks are enough to push undecided voters to vote for him for the confidence. False statements and incorrect information don't really matter anymore no matter how many of them were checked. Trump has two words that make all of the fact checking irrelevant. Fake news. If it weren't for his activation of the Proud Boys (who literally took to social media and changed their official profile picture to a logo of the quote "Stand back, and stand by") and his open encouraging of voter intimidation, I would have called the debate a win for Trump. He had the opportunity to put a lot of his rally material to use. If you have watched his rallies at all, a lot of the talking points he used in the debate were from his routine. (especially relating to covid19 and protesting) His voter base is praising him for his performance on social media and sharing their favorite lines from the debate. While the same can be said for Biden, the results are nowhere near as impactful and there are nowhere near as many memable lines on his side of things. RIP to the Americans who just wanted to know about policies and what would be brought to the table upon election.P.S. Also, let's talk about Chris Wallace as the moderator. I felt that he could have done a much better job moderating, but that's overshadowed by him attempting to do the impossible task of teaching Trump to wait his turn. The moderator should definitely have the ability to mute microphones. Once that happens, then I can be critical of his actual moderation.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election See, calling Trump a clown is just name-calling. We're in agreement that even if Biden was under duress, he slipped there. Not cool.But calling Trump a racist? If that burns your boots, I hate to say it, but tough. Trump -is a racist.As some pieces of evidence:1. Trump's party in 2016 took pains to target black voters to discourage them from voting; black voters vastly favoured Hillary Clinton, so Trump rightly knew he'd get crushed at the polls if blacks showed up to vote in force. As such, he had ads plastered on Facebook specifically targeting these people (remember Cambridge analytics? yeah, it falls into that). Trump will say it never happened, but the fact that Facebook went out of its way to say it wouldn't happen anymore implies that it already happened. This is racist policy, and voter suppression, all rolled into one. Whether because of this ad campaign or for other unrelated reasons, black turnout was lower in 2016 than it's been in awhile. Trump still lost the popular vote, BTW...so you tell me.2. Trump has banned CRT in federal government and for contractors with the federal government. Racism is both personal and systemic, and this action from Trump implies both kinds. First, that he knows racism exists and wants to ignore it. Second, that he knows it's a systemic problem - or should know it - but continues to misrepresent it, and to mischaracterize it as an "Anti-American" threat, and "propaganda". Sorry, but white privilege is not anti-American. It can be weaponized, and that's bad for everyone, but its very existence and use does not weaponize it.3. "China plague", "china virus", and other such comments made in the very speech that sparked this topic. But he's done this loads of times before/. Racism against China. Let's expand this point even further. Okay, so the virus did originate in China, but to -blame it on China is...well, let's just say that most people agree that it was probably an accident and naturally occurring. Maybe it wasn't, but without proof, you can't hang your hat on that particular nail. So China was the birthplace of this virus, one way or the other, and they clamped down on it, and now as far as I'm aware they're not having any problems. But many, many people travel in and out of the United States, who represents an enormous number of per-capita Covid cases and deaths. Would it be fair to now call this the America plague? The answer, I hope, is fuck no. How about we just call it what it is, and stop slapping labels on things to make people look bad when there's no benefit in it. Trump calling it the "china virus" and "china plague" instead of just referring to it as the coronavirus, or covid-19, or even just the virus, is racist, and it's kind of hypocritical since America has actually had far more net negative impact on the world related to this virus than China could've ever dreamed.4. Telling people like Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez - who was born in New York I believe, definitely somewhere in America but my memory's failing me at the moment - to go back home (which is something commonly said by racists to immigrantsAnd this is just the shit I can think of right off the top of my head.Trump is a racist, no questions asked. Please don't defend him against that claim. You'd have more luck saying that Biden shouldn't have called him a clown.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election I'd argue that the China comments could easily be chalked up to nationalism or a dislike of the Chinese government rather than it's people. You wouldn't call Africans racist for saying that Americans are fucking up the world...A couple of important things you forgot to mention though are his vocal support of the Obama birther conspiracy and his insistence that the Central Park 5 are still guilty despite the evidence, though the second one is harder to definitively call racism.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election See, calling Trump a clown is just name-calling. We're in agreement that even if Biden was under duress, he slipped there. Not cool.But calling Trump a racist? If that burns your boots, I hate to say it, but tough. Trump -is a racist.As some pieces of evidence:1. Trump's party in 2016 took pains to target black voters to discourage them from voting; black voters vastly favoured Hillary Clinton, so Trump rightly knew he'd get crushed at the polls if blacks showed up to vote in force. As such, he had ads plastered on Facebook specifically targeting these people (remember Cambridge analytics? yeah, it falls into that). Trump will say it never happened, but the fact that Facebook went out of its way to say it wouldn't happen anymore implies that it already happened. This is racist policy, and voter suppression, all rolled into one. Whether because of this ad campaign or for other unrelated reasons, black turnout was lower in 2016 than it's been in awhile. Trump still lost the popular vote, BTW...so you tell me.2. Trump has banned CRT in federal government and for contractors with the federal government. Racism is both personal and systemic, and this action from Trump implies both kinds. First, that he knows racism exists and wants to ignore it. Second, that he knows it's a systemic problem - or should know it - but continues to misrepresent it, and to mischaracterize it as an "Anti-American" threat, and "propaganda". Sorry, but white privilege is not anti-American. It can be weaponized, and that's bad for everyone, but its very existence and use does not weaponize it.3. "China plague", "china virus", and other such comments made in the very speech that sparked this topic. But he's done this loads of times before/. Racism against China.4. Telling people like Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez - who was born in New York I believe, definitely somewhere in America but my memory's failing me at the moment - to go back home (which is something commonly said by racists to immigrantsAnd this is just the shit I can think of right off the top of my head.Trump is a racist, no questions asked. Please don't defend him against that claim. You'd have more luck saying that Biden shouldn't have called him a clown.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Again, @Accman. You're either inadvertently or deliberately missing the point about Trump going after his son. Also, calling him a racist, out of line? Ok, so maybe if that was all that happened, you could say that, implying there was no evidence of that inside the debate/nothing inherently racist was said during the debate. But that is simply not the case when factored in that there was undeniable evidence that, at the very least he has no intentions of ending racist movements. When he told proudboys to stand back and stand by but don't stand down, but someone's gotta do something about Antifa?

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election @Accman: Fair point, however on the other side of the tracks how does that compare to Trump's contempt for Biden's son and his going through and overcoming drug addiction? Whichever side you're on, you have to admit Biden's words of my son overcame his drug addiction and I'm proud of him, was morally correct and exactly what Trump would not have said. I am not saying that necessarily gives him a free pass for telling him to shut up, but at the same time I am not going to act like that is as bad as what Trump did, not to mention his significant lack of professionalism and maturity throughout the entire shitshow. You said you were not a fan of the way Trump handled a lot of what happened last night. That's more than believable (who could have been, after all) but don't cherry-pick who to call out for interrupting who.Now, excuse me while I go prepare my toaster for argument training.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Calling the president a clown was certainly inappropriate, as was telling him to shut up. Neither are appropriate to do in a debate setting like this, especially in front of the nation. However, calling the president a racist was completely out of line. I'd say the same thing if it had been the president who had done likewise. In fact, if he started throwing that label around, I'd very likely drop any support I have for him as well. You just don't do that in a situation like this, or any situation for that matter.

Re: I am scared
Re: I am scared Yeah, I'm just not fully grasping it I guess.If you get a puppy, it's small, it has really insanely sharp little teeth (or maybe it has no teeth if it's very, very young). Its ears are big and floppy. Its paws are out of sync with its body. Then it grows into its ears and paws; coat thickens and usually coarsens. Teeth fall out, replaced by bigger, slightly blunter, stronger teeth. The overall shape remains the same.Plants...do basically the same thing. If you look into this, there is biology and chemistry at work determining how a plant starts as a seed and then goes from there. If you have a spider plant in the corner of your apartment, at home in its pot, and you forget about it from one week to the next, it may grow a little bit bigger, but it also might die on you. Basically plants just grow bigger, grow more. It's not like you have three leaves around a base one week, and masses of vines the next. The chances are not large, as I understand it. I mean, between seed and full-grown plant, sure, but that's the same as a fertilized egg turning into a full-grown dog if you want to be straight about it.I just don't understand, I guess. I wouldn't want someone telling me there are random ropes dangling around my apartment, but I also wouldn't want someone saying they let seven dogs loose in there either. Because sure, those seven dogs might be friendly, but what if they aren't? Or what if I'm spooked by them? With the dogs, I'm accounting for active free will and personality; with the ropes, I'm dealing with physics and a bit of the unknown.

Re: Urgent advice needed! I attended a mainstream school and, for the most part, had a wonderful experience. I was the only blind student in my school, but the other kids really worked with me the best they could and we had a good time. I worked with an Association for the Blind and was able to get all of the training that I needed to receive. Up until my junior year, I was getting all my books in braille, but from that point on there were some I was unable to get. My aid actually recorded as much of them for me as she could, which I never expected she would do. I agree that digital is much easier nowadays, but accessibility still has a long way to go, especially where math books are concerned. I hope things work out for you.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Calling Trump a clown was not Biden's best moment, granted.Having been interrupted multiple times by Trump at this point, I imagine that Biden was losing patience. This is an explanation for his behaviour, not an excuse for it.But I think bringing it up is done in bad faith (damn, there's that concept of bad faith again). If that had been the only insult thrown, then sure, it's a great criticism. But it wasn't the only insult thrown, not by any means. Trump insulted Biden's intelligence, and dragged his son through the mud for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Surely if we're talking about specious personal attacks, those rank higher than calling someone a clown and telling him to shut up when he has continuously (like over two dozen times) interrupted you during your own time to talk?Biden is absolutely not going to be yanked to the left. Dude, he's basically a centrist. You have nothing to worry about. Biden made a point to say in the debate that the "green new deal" that Trump was trying to pin to his back is actually not what he's endorsing. And it isn't. Biden is not a great candidate as far as I'm concerned, and I won't sit here and tell you he looked like a champ last night. He didn't.But Kjsisco, one thing, eh? Let's, uh, kind of not make fun of his stutter? That's dirty and pointless. It's perfectly okay to point out that Biden seemed a bit tongue-tied (as in, it detracted from being able to follow what he meant), but to call him a mushmouth makes him sound like he wasn't cogent. But while he did stumble a few times, and didn't pace himself well, he was also the only one to actually talk policy when invited to do so.Poor Wallace didn't have a clue.

Re: I have a computer, I have time, and I am smart! Where is the money!! There's Wealthy Affiliate, but a lot of what they do is totally not designed with accessibility in mind and they have you go through Siterubix. The Blind Employment Network teaches that to a degree, but do keep in mind a lot of this training comes at a cost whichever way you go. And given VR is almost always behind the times, you will be dealing with people who have no idea what the hell you're talking about when you mention affiliate marketing, so they probably wouldn't fund your training. Generally the idea is find a niche based on your own interests so that you'll know enough to write about it. Then you make a website, write about these products, sign up for the affiliate programs of said companies, lather rinse repeat. People click on your links to buy the products, and you get the residual income. There's a lot more to it than that but you get the idea.

Re: is this worth it?
Re: is this worth it? Depending on what you want to do, it could be more than worth your while to get the certification. One thing I've learned in the IT training that I am working on completing now is that yes, companies do look at the degree. However, certifications are really what they are looking for, and the more of them you have the more types of opportunities that could open up for you. As far as certification exams go, I hope you wouldn't have to go through Pearson Vue. I am currently trying to work test for a few different certifications right now, and have been going around and around with them just to merely get access to an exam using a screen-reader. I am actually surprised that any major tech organization, or any organization at all for that matter, would go through Pearson for providing their certification tests because they are not even accredited, and have a C rating with the BBB. I have submitted accommodation requests to them, so we'll see what happens. However, unless I've missed my guess, my gut feeling tells me that they'll find something wrong with what I submitted.

Re: I have a computer, I have time, and I am smart! Where is the money!!
Re: I have a computer, I have time, and I am smart! Where is the money!! Making money online can be done, but there are a ton of scams out there unfortunately. Sure, there are online surveys and things like that, but you're not, in most cases, going to make a serious amount of money doing things like that. If you sign up for several things like that, then yes it would add up, but it will take a lot of time. For example, this year I was able to earn a few hundred dollars doing it, but that took me over half the year to accomplish. One thing that seems to work for people, and I haven't really done a great deal with it, is what is called affiliate marketing. if you look that up on Google there are tons of results that can provide all sorts of information about that. Almost every company out there has an affiliate program of some sort, and there are folks who have made a lot of money doing it. In the end, quite a lot of research needs to be done to help sort out honest opportunities from those which are not, but it can be done.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election I didn't see all of the debate, or whatever that was, last night because I had an online class I was attending. However, I have to say that, while I expected things would spiral out of control, i didn't think it would be that insane. I kind of have to laugh when thinking about it because at one point of the debate where I could listen to what was happening, I could get absolutely nothing out of it because you had the president and Joe Biden talking over each other, and then the moderator was trying to talk over them. If I had recorded it, I would have loved to take the recording and speed it up because that was, in all honesty, the closest thing I have ever heard that comes anywhere close to something resembling an episode of the Chipmunks. It is no secret that I am a supporter of our president, but, in some ways, I wasn't overly pleased with the way he handled things last night. That having been said, I can say that he wasn't the one calling his opponent a racist, a clown, and then telling him to shut up. You don't interrupt people in a debate, regardless of who you are, but you also don't call people names and tell them to shut up. The president did not do that, but Biden did and that is not good form either. In the end, I think we can all pretty much agree that it was a debate that really didn't get all that much accomplished. Very disappointing.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Based on what I've observed, I think there are generally three kinds of people who still support Trump.A. People who just want things to change because they hate what politics and government in general has become, and wanted to shake things up by electing him, got conned hard into a personality cult, and saw that it wasn't worth it just to get a different kind of asshole in office, but can't admit it do to their pride and media brainwashing.B. People who hate the social changes that have happened in the last couple of decades and desperately want the chance to crawl out of the woodwork even further, so that the normalization of homophobia, sexism, ablism, racism ETC can be considered acceptable again and their world can be a smaller, simpler, less scary place once more.C. People who live their lives with blind patriotism or religious fervor as the norm who can't see beyond their limited experience and don't wish to, so instead simply follow the heard thoughtlessly because it is what they were raised to do.It's a damn shame, and I don't hate most of them at all, I pity them. At the same time though I'm not so self assured of my position's superiority that I can't listen to their reasoning, since on a personal level, some of it makes allot of sense.For instance, loss of jobs in your field do to energy industry changes, putting money into social programs without thinking longterm about where that money will actually come from, or the overboard elements of liberal mob mentality such as unreasonable language policing, the normalization of cancel culture, or double standards for hate speech or violence perpetrated by members of oppressed minorities.I just wish that more people were willing to vote third party or not vote at all, rather than choosing Trump simply because they don't like/agree with Biden or because their hatred of insert group here leads them to seek retribution above anything else. I mean hell I don't like him that much my self, but I'm not about to shoot my self and my fellow Americans in the foot by continuing this failed experiment either.

Re: Azerbaijan and Armenia war
Re: Azerbaijan and Armenia war @8600 million dollars is nothing. The U.S. has spent 2 trillion dollars alone on Covid stimulus and is about to do that again. And I believe our yearly budget is something like 7 trillion. That's enough money to fund 600 million dollar wars several thousand times a year from one country. I don't think you understand the scale of the world. That little money, at a country-to-country level? it's no more than "Let me buy you a nice dinner". Seattle spent like a billion dollars total building a light rail. A city building a light rail for the city, not the country, spent a billion dollars. We're even doing it again, actually, to extend it out to some other local cities that don't currently have stations. It's a very nice light rail, one of the best in the nation. But it's a train, and we spent twice as much money as you're saying China did. To China, that's pocket change. It could entirely go missing and they'd just go "huh, we lost 600 million dollars, oops".Google Home says that these countries combined have less people in them than the Chicago metro.World War III isn't something anyone wants. People will put their fingers on the scales of wars over there in small, mostly inconsequential countries because they can, and they can all "humanitarian aid" it to their citizens and look great. It's sad that we don't instead use this power to just say "if you start a war, we're going to cut you off from everything, have fun" or something and actually try for world peace or whatever instead of just using them as chips in the game.But World War III, it ends the planet, probably. No one wants that. Something involving 10 million people in former soviet states that barely have economies doesn't turn into a world war. yeah, World War I was kind of that stupid, but that was the first one, back then they didn't have nukes, ICBMs, and the ability to engineer plagues in a lab. But everyone who might conceivably start World War III looks at that, goes "This will end the planet, wow", and then tries absolutely anything else. Mutually assured destruction is stupid and pointless, but it did actually get everyone to go "the stuff I have in this war room over here, man, everyone has a kill millions of people in 5 minutes button, huh". There will continue to be wars. There will probably even continue to be big wars. But the days of every country out there with an army that's big enough to matter going "let's send some troops and have a jolly good time defending our honor as a nation" and then you get a 20-country war, that's over, at least for now. It took wiping some cities off the map in literally half an hour of work and one aircraft to get the lesson across, but we did learn from history, at least for the time being.

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election Defender, you actually raise some valid points to be cognizant of and considerate about. Someone who's center or right who brings this stuff up with me...yeah, I'll talk details.First, energy and jobs. I mean, progress is progress, but yes, that is going to suck. You can make the same arguments about things like automatic tellers or cashiers, automation in general. Technology is going to change capitalism - and probably break it eventually - but it's definitely going to make a lot of jobs either obsolete or far less demanding. And progress in general is going to change some of the job sectors, energy among them. I don't have an immediate answer on how to fix this. I have a long-term one. That long-term answer is a universal basic income, where if you lost your job due to energy concerns or whatever, at least you're not going to starve. You have time to switch fields. No, it isn't perfect, and I'll get into the financial side in a sec. But it does nip the problem slightly. Most people are terrified that they'll be out of jobs and unable to pay their debts. Capitalism doesn't run on work; it runs on debt. Systemic problem with the whole notion, IMO. But yeah, a basic income, or some sort of bridge-gapping scenario/incentives to get people to transition away from fossil fuels. Because here's the deal. Yes, it's going to suck. Yes, we're going to break a few eggs. But not doing it? We break the planet. Which is worse?Social programs...well, here's a touchy one. First things first: the rich often dodge paying their fair share of taxes. If you check out the New York Times, you'll see a really long article about how Trump himself has managed to do this. When he spends way too much money or claims huge losses, he gets tax incentives that carry forward. Basically, he had accountants who fucked the system, and ultimately is -not paying his fair share. Also he's hiring people from his family as "consultants" and doing other potentially shady things that would probably land a poor man in prison, but I'll leave that alone for now. The point is, taxes are not properly distributed or levied right now. The rich have the resources to dodge all over the place, and they shouldn't. Corporations can get away with making billion-dollar profits while paying no tax. If you start taxing corporations and the ultra-rich proportionately, suddenly you start having more money for some social programs. If you defund (read: not completely, but partially) the police, and increase their training, then there's a bit of money also. If you tweak military spending down a bit, there's some more money. I'm not saying the checkbook balances out entirely. Frankly I don't know if it will, or can, at least not yet. But it has to be tried. You have to plug the holes. You can't claim there's no money for forgiving student debt while spending billions of tax dollars on military operations that benefit virtually no one.And as for cancel culture and the like? I don't believe double standards exist in typical leftist circles, but I acknowledge that they do exist in some places. I think it's very important to call out bullshit when it happens, but I think some people do go too far.I'm curious on what you mean by "unreasonable language policing". What is unreasonable, and who decides that standard?What sort of double standards for hate-speech are you referring to?Ditto for violence.These are honest questions, they're not me trying to set you up. This topic was meant for discussion, so here we are.I don't really believe that cancel culture has been normalized, but I do think that sometimes, when we realize that something is a problem, it's okay to say, "Hey, you know what? Maybe we don't want to endorse this anymore". Again, is it overdone sometimes? Sure it is. The left has a tendency to be a bit zealous in condemning its own sometimes. I just think it's prudent to stop short before maybe calling -all such cancellations invalid. I'm not sure if you're doing that or not, I'm trying not to make assumptions.Nevertheless, these points are good ones. These are things I'll talk to a right-winger about.I still maintain that none of them even comes close to validating a vote for Trump. Even if you think Biden is a leftist - he's not - he will do better than Trump is doing. That's my take on it, anyway.As far as your analysis that there are three types of people who'd still vote for Trump, I'll add a fourth:D) People who are right-leaning, and have been primed by family, society, the media and other forms of indoctrination to hate all opposition, and who will thus vote blindly regardless of their incumbent's ideology, platform, rhetoric or mistakesAnd unfortunately, I've seen evidence of this group right here on the forum. It's this group that scares me. I want to believe that people will act in their own best interest, if not in the best interest of others, but even -that isn't happening when you vote in

Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election
Re: Discussion of the 2020 American Federal Election A little OT, but IMO as a group we deserve everything which has happened in 2020, though as individuals most of us don't. Because even when we weren't actively contributing to the problems, we were usually ignoring them for the sake of comfort.Allot of that can be chalked up to natural side effects of the human condition, but the secondary purpose of society is to curb those.Most of us would apparently rather live selfishly and never dare to peer beyond the surface or cultivate an attention span long enough to actually change things, and this is what we get for it.Those of us with the education and resources to make a difference have the most to answer for, yet many of us can only sink further into self pity or excuses when confronted with our mistakes, rather than learning from them and trying to improve.And for the record, I definitely include my self in this criticism.
