2023.03.30 03:50 -Joli_Garcon- Needing help clearing storage
 | Hey there, so I spent about a few hours today getting Ubisoft and battlenet downloaded on my deck. Got battlenet and it didn't recognize any of my games and wanted me to repurchase them so I trashed it and just decided I won't be able to play them on deck. Then I did the same for Ubisoft, same story but I downloaded Valhalla and FC6. Spent a large amount of time trying to find the file location and it's essentially hopeless, so Ive came to the conclusion I just can't play any other 3rd party gaming app on the deck. Now I have about 200gb of other colored in yellow on my storage, how do I find those to delete them and just stay on steam games. When in browser mode as well I'd get a black screen with just the mouse pointer on it so I've had to shut it off and turn back in etc. This is just being a nightmare that isn't worth it at this point. Any help getting rid of these hidden games and ridding of the 3rd party apps would be useful. Thx submitted by -Joli_Garcon- to SteamDeck [link] [comments] |

After posting my app on my social media accounts and talking with some friends both general and people that are in the fashion industry, I have gotten some valuable feedback on how the UI should act in order for them to feel comfortable. We have listened to their feedback to make some tweaks.
Here are some changes we made:
- Moved the home page, likes and cart navigation to a bottom bar when you first open the app, this makes it easy to navigate the pages while also exposing those features to users on first glance so they have familiarity with what is possible in this app. This was a major point made by users as they wanted to get to liked products with ease.
- Added a forgot password functionality to the user signin/signup. This was a much needed feature people asked for continuously.
- Added a mailer functionality to our app so users get a welcome email when they are signed up, this has a feedback form link embedded. This was something we have been meaning to add so we can reach our users and also be able to send price drop notification on products they liked on any of the sites available.
The MVP is out and has a lot of good features that we want to test with it.
Here are the main features of the MVP:
- The ability to get live suggestions while shopping on any of the 12 sites available on the app
- Swiping left after selecting an item on any of the stores shows you similar items from other stores and swiping right shows you items that complement the original item so you can easily create outfits. The styles are chosen using color rules from our stylist.
- You can like items on any of the sites which you can pick from likes page to generate it own set of suggestions. Coming soon you will get notification if any of the items drop in price.
- A FitFinder feature that allows you to upload a picture of a person or set of clothes that our app then generates recommendations for. This can help users get items that will complement their already bought items in their closet or to get inspiration from celebrities or influencer they like.
- Cart: A checkout system made to check out multiple stores easier so users can shop for outfits and not just one item. Aiming to create a one button checkout process so it can even get easier.

2023.03.30 03:22 Ambitious-Skirt-275 [Poem] Introduction to Poetry—Billy Collins
I ask them to take a poem and hold it up to the light like a color slide
or press an ear against its hive.
I say drop a mouse into a poem and watch him probe his way out,
or walk inside the poem’s room and feel the walls for a light switch.
I want them to waterski across the surface of a poem waving at the author’s name on the shore.
But all they want to do is tie the poem to a chair with rope and torture a confession out of it.
They begin beating it with a hose to find out what it really means.

2023.03.30 03:06 Dra5iel Touch keyboard will not appear for address bar or other text boxes and issues with mouse location.
Hello, I'm running firefox 111.0.1 (64-bit) on a windows 10 desktop PC and having a bit of a struggle to get my drawing tablet (Huion inspiroy h160p) working properly with firefox.
The first issue is that triggering the address bar in firefox with the pen does not bring up the windows touch keyboard. It does bring up the keyboard if you trigger the search box located in the firefox default page.
The second issue is that other websites with text boxes, such as Facebook/Messenger, online stores like Staples, etc do not bring up the touch keyboard in Firefox either. The same websites do work correctly when I use chrome.
The final issue is one that has me baffled. I have a mouse as well as my tablet plugged in. When I attempt to use my tablet and pen it will start the pen curser at the last location the mouse cursor was at, or as close to it as possible (say when the mouse is off on another screen outside the tablet area). This makes using "mouse mode" with the tablet impossible because as soon as you lift the pen it returns to the mouse's last location. This behaviour does not occur in my drawing program nor on the windows desktop.
Any help resolving these issues would be greatly appreciated.

2023.03.30 02:44 Dependent-Unit6091 Mana's Glade
They rode by night, sleeping what little they could in the hours before dawn each day. The land to the west seemed of little value: A stretch of flat, leveled desolation, overcome with dieback, wherein nothing flourished.
The sky hung in a low dark firmament all around them, star-spattered and electric. In the distance lightning strobed noiselessly and with such frequency that the tandem peals of thunder seemed dissonant, and altogether disconnected. The men watched in silence. The horses skittered and squealed nervously, bearing the stark white alabaster plates of their teeth in fear.
Osmand spoke of the natural world. Drafting with alacrity an overview of the universe and its slighter intricacies. That the destiny of the world had been decided at it's inception.
"The earth in all her glory lacks agency. Stones tumble where they are given. And the mind of man is much the same."
Elahan spat. "That's your way of it. Besides, it was not meant that man should know the order of the sky. Much less what is was like to do."
"Ever the lowly farmer seeks to predict the rain." Osmand answered in confidence. "And the turn of seasons is no idle thing. The moon wanes in regularity. If it was not man's place to know, then he has no right place at all. For what sober god in all his grand accounting would grant unto his children the gift and grace of curiosity, only to admonish them for pursuing it?"
The terrified horses dandled the riders in their saddles, and in the dark they resembled a pair of hopeless marionettes, driven to animus by their unseen creator.
"I'll not contest you in your blasphemies. Speak to me no more of this."
Osmand yielded the point with a delicate diplomacy, saying that the question had been put forth in earnest, and that all human knowledge was, in truth, based on speculation.
The parasitic root rot, who's genus had been so long in the ascendant, now faded, and gave way to subtle growth. The foliage thriving and expanding like a castigated people in refuge. The rising tide of flora greeted them from every turn. At first it merely choked their progress, then bloomed full, into a forest.
The treeline now before them stretched in a fixity for either direction until its boundaries were lost along the horizon: no right place where they might enter it, each possibility a replica of the one considered before. Everywhere a massive tangle of oaks and jungle vine and the deep seething pulse of life coming off the trees, as if somewhere deep in the heart of the glade lay something enormous and alive and breathing.
They followed a thin game-trail paved with the unshod hoof prints of wild ungulates, and the dainty tracks of smaller mammals in their goings. Surrounding them was a variety of foliage neither man could name, and from time to time Osmand would halt and dismount and press some exceptional flora between the pages of his notebooks. Much the botanist, he scrawled greedily for them names of his own invention.
The horses seemed at ease in this place, trotting alongside one another with their heads bent close and snickering like two brothers conversing. They browsed at their leisure on wild patches of grass that had never suffered the footfall of man. Elahan by contrast seemed ill-suited for this leg of the journey. He regarded the surroundings with open distrust, as if something lurid dithered in the fantasy of flowers that attended them.
At twilight they erected camp on the banks of a weak and shallow stream. They kept an enormous fire with which to combat the darkness. Osmand sat revising from his tomes tdhe days collection; Elahan alternately prayed and stood watch.
druids now emerged from the brush with little fanfare. A trio of filthy, painted hominids, denizens of a fevered dream. Blue-faced and solemn, clutching heavy lithic spears like troglodytic cave-dwellers. One of them was a woman and she alone had draped a withered deerskin around her waist with which to protect her modesty. The men bore antlered crowns and cloaks bedecked with bright feathers and money-shells and little black stones on a string bore through the center with god knows what. They stood just within the outer dark, like fugitive shades, as if in the warmth of the fire's embrace malingered something alien to them.
Elahan stood and unclipped the handle of his sword and watched them without speaking. Osmand sat motionless before the fire, a notebook slipping from his hand.
He was certain that if they spoke it would be no common tongue at all, until one of their numbers stepped forward, declaiming, "The outsider is much like the locust. Though oft appearing in small numbers, the swarm is sure to follow. Know that you are transgressors. We would have you leave this place."
Their pronunciations were characterized by a rough guttural utterance, and they spoke with little tact. They were altogether innocent of civilized trappings. Their matted hair fell in clutches.
Elahan in his resplendent armor seemed altogether luminous in the radiance of the animate flame. He looked like some otherworldly redeemer, and they as the set of lowly heathens he had come to scatter. "And who are you," He said, "That you might deny us passage? Surely the wood is no mans domain."
"And yet you incinerate her boughs, as if this was your claim. The arsonist is an enemy, and unwelcome. Besides, we are envoys of the Arch-Druid, the Druid-Mother, The Lady Aradia, who is keeper of this sacred place."
Elahan regarded them dimly, his brow raised in speculation. "Sacred? You mean to say you worship the woods in this place?"
Osmand snapped shut his book and secreted it away among the folds of his robe and stood. "You mean to say you are druids?" His eyes shone intensely.
"Where else might you best commune with that which made you? The true state of the world is a green expanse, in which flowers hold dominion. Would you have us believe that quartered stone is most pleasing to the eye? If you had not consumed this lie from birth, you would recognize its strangeness."
"In spite of this, I have seen in my life strangeness enough." Elahan said.
"And close at hand." Osmand quipped.
The druid continued. "It is a desecration of the mothers flesh. You gather her teeth in little piles. You wear her bones proudly upon your breast."
Elahan scowled. "You would have us worshiping the bones instead? You court damnation, truly."
"You, who have removed yourself from the ecology of your fathers, would lecture us? To remove yourself from the wheel is a fate worse than death. It is we who are reborn a thousand times."
"Aye, but none as slugs." Said Osmand, who had been widely read on the many and varied theories of druidic incarnation. "You in your conceit have been the bear, or stag, or noble lion. But which among you has been the wretched squealing boar?"
Of the two druids who had not spoken, the woman now stepped forward. "Perhaps your companion. Surely he is like enough to satisfy you."
Elahan scoffed, and drew himself up proudly.
"A thousand pagan tongues have cursed me. Like the faintest rays of sunlight upon the water, are the idle words of savages reflected."
At this the druids bristled. They clutched up their spears and the one who had remained silent thus far now emerged into a fierce ululation.
Their leader seemed to be considering the insult. "Savages? You, who reek with the vapor of smoke, would lecture us on civility?"
None spoke. A falcon sounded overheard, its voice thin and lost among the cirrus.
"No man restricts my movement. And any who seek to do so will know the truth of my faith."
Osmand now stepped forward. A thin band of solid orange flame coalesced around him, and the druids sprang back in surprise.
At this, a large and regal cat that had been lazing and watching these proceedings without apparent interest now stood and stretched and yammered loudly. The druids turned, regarding the animal with a certain deferential expression. For whatever reason, the druids refused to parley further, and sank wordlessly back into the woods. The cat now likewise retreated.
The ovate track of fire he had summoned now dissipated harmlessly, leaving him wavering slightly on his feet. He regarded the forest with a newfound weariness.
"I wasnt sure what all could be done to enhance the perils of our journey. But you seemed to have achieved all relevant possibilities on the matter."
Elahan clasped shut the hilt of his blade. He replied that the children of Mana were subject to none but Him, His Will, and that Osmand had been no still-tongued conciliator himself. Osmand shrugged, and yielded the point with a delicate diplomacy.
The days ahead would see them ride west, pursuing in its constant wanderlust the trembling eye of the sun. Navigating the forest highland with their eyes upturned like the primitive devotees of some forgotten solstic faith. Riding by day through stands of flowering golden acacia, and clutches of the pale and sinister moonflower at night. They camped on the banks of a lagoon colored roseate by the evening sun, then blanched white under the moon in its pale circumference as they slept. When they woke an egret was negotiating the break on its thin and slender stilts. It regarded them dimly with it's dull lacquered eyes.
From high on that forest shelf and in the pre-dawn light, they spotted smoke roiling upward in the vast panorama of the valley below. A clutch of flames burned uncontrolled somewhere deep in the heart of the woodland basin.
"Perhaps the druids." Elahan said. "Sat in ambush against us."
Osmand studied the flames in quiet supposition. He shrugged.
"Perhaps." He offered.
Elahan regarded him in vague disgust but spoke no more on the subject. They mounted and rode on. They would descend that morning onto the low valley floor, where they endured with less and less equanimity the constant squabbling of birds, in contest over some perch. Iridescent green boas hung from the low branches like twists of ersatz kudzu. Crouched in the undergrowth were the squat frames of ocelots, where they awaited with great discretion the missteps of more manageable prey. And in the dark, richly-coloured barn owls streaked overhead like faded and ghostly comets.
The next day they rode through a mining camp the druids had destroyed. it's laborers had been slaughtered, and deposited along with their implements into the central pit of operation, like so much chaff. Their gore-slaked corpses lay in a great heap at the bottom of that cauldron, wherein all differences had been resolved and none had been granted exception from that communal fate. As if the druids had gone about the massacre like something stipulated long ago by their forefathers, and the miners as the bloodborne legatees come to fulfill that ancestral debt. Some had been scalped, or left with bloodied lidless eyes with which to regard the cycling horizons forever, until they were dried and gone, or eaten from their heads by what carrion beasts lurked beyond the outer wood.
In one of the huts the druids had festooned a man with feather bundles and daubed all along his naked body a number of twisted and outlandish symbols. The man had died on his side with his legs and arms curled against him like some late spider. And frozen in his countenance was a certain madness, and he too had been divested of his eyelids. Such was his state that it seemed as if he'd been no victim of the druids at all, but a hapless wanderer who in his travels had come up against the raw edge of the universe, past which loomed such primordial beings that any mind attempting their encapsulation was left deaf and dumb and gibbering.
"Let's go on." Elahan said.
"What does it say of God, that they might die in this way? Each of these faithful, having lived a storied life..."
"You would know the Will of God?" Elahan answered. "You would know His mind, as you do the will of the stars and moon and stone?"
"I can know only what I see. That this was the long arc of their existence. That they might live, so they could die scrabbling against the walls of that pit like terrified cats."
"Hold your blasphemous tongue. Or I wll have it out."
That was the extent of their counsel. They mounted up and rode on, neither of them keen to stay on in that place.
I'd appreciate some help with transitioning between paragraphs and events. Like when the druids first show up. I feel like the transitions are too sudden or jarring.
I also am trying to reproduce the style and feel of the bible and ancient history texts, to lend weight to my fantasy world. The story is more about the characters religious changes in response to world events. Id like the plot to be in the background, its more about how the two main characters change as people. Any help on how to achieve this would be helpful because its really hard for me, lol.
Thank you for reading.
I also dont know how to format on reddit and im not even on mobile lol

"Ever the lowly farmer seeks to predict the rain." Osmand answered in confidence. "And the turn of seasons is no idle thing. The moon wanes in regularity. If it was not man's place to know, then he has no right place at all. For what sober god in all his grand accounting would grant unto his children the gift and grace of curiosity, only to admonish them for pursuing it?"
The terrified horses dandled the riders in their saddles, and in the dark they resembled a pair of hopeless marionettes, driven to animus by their unseen creator.
"I'll not contest you in your blasphemies. Speak to me no more of this."
Osmand yielded the point with a delicate diplomacy, saying that the question had been put forth in earnest, and that all human knowledge was, in truth, based on speculation.
The parasitic root rot, who's genus had been so long in the ascendant, now faded, and gave way to subtle growth. The foliage thriving and expanding like a castigated people in refuge. The rising tide of flora greeted them from every turn. At first it merely choked their progress, then bloomed full, into a forest.
The treeline now before them stretched in a fixity for either direction until its boundaries were lost along the horizon: no right place where they might enter it, each possibility a replica of the one considered before. Everywhere a massive tangle of oaks and jungle vine and the deep seething pulse of life coming off the trees, as if somewhere deep in the heart of the glade lay something enormous and alive and breathing.
They followed a thin game-trail paved with the unshod hoof prints of wild ungulates, and the dainty tracks of smaller mammals in their goings. Surrounding them was a variety of foliage neither man could name, and from time to time Osmand would halt and dismount and press some exceptional flora between the pages of his notebooks. Much the botanist, he scrawled greedily for them names of his own invention.
The horses seemed at ease in this place, trotting alongside one another with their heads bent close and snickering like two brothers conversing. They browsed at their leisure on wild patches of grass that had never suffered the footfall of man. Elahan by contrast seemed ill-suited for this leg of the journey. He regarded the surroundings with open distrust, as if something lurid dithered in the fantasy of flowers that attended them.
At twilight they erected camp on the banks of a weak and shallow stream. They kept an enormous fire with which to combat the darkness. Osmand sat revising from his tomes tdhe days collection; Elahan alternately prayed and stood watch.
druids now emerged from the brush with little fanfare. A trio of filthy, painted hominids, denizens of a fevered dream. Blue-faced and solemn, clutching heavy lithic spears like troglodytic cave-dwellers. One of them was a woman and she alone had draped a withered deerskin around her waist with which to protect her modesty. The men bore antlered crowns and cloaks bedecked with bright feathers and money-shells and little black stones on a string bore through the center with god knows what. They stood just within the outer dark, like fugitive shades, as if in the warmth of the fire's embrace malingered something alien to them.
Elahan stood and unclipped the handle of his sword and watched them without speaking. Osmand sat motionless before the fire, a notebook slipping from his hand.
He was certain that if they spoke it would be no common tongue at all, until one of their numbers stepped forward, declaiming, "The outsider is much like the locust. Though oft appearing in small numbers, the swarm is sure to follow. Know that you are transgressors. We would have you leave this place."
Their pronunciations were characterized by a rough guttural utterance, and they spoke with little tact. They were altogether innocent of civilized trappings. Their matted hair fell in clutches.
Elahan in his resplendent armor seemed altogether luminous in the radiance of the animate flame. He looked like some otherworldly redeemer, and they as the set of lowly heathens he had come to scatter. "And who are you," He said, "That you might deny us passage? Surely the wood is no mans domain."
"And yet you incinerate her boughs, as if this was your claim. The arsonist is an enemy, and unwelcome. Besides, we are envoys of the Arch-Druid, the Druid-Mother, The Lady Aradia, who is keeper of this sacred place."
Elahan regarded them dimly, his brow raised in speculation. "Sacred? You mean to say you worship the woods in this place?"
Osmand snapped shut his book and secreted it away among the folds of his robe and stood. "You mean to say you are druids?" His eyes shone intensely.
"Where else might you best commune with that which made you? The true state of the world is a green expanse, in which flowers hold dominion. Would you have us believe that quartered stone is most pleasing to the eye? If you had not consumed this lie from birth, you would recognize its strangeness."
"In spite of this, I have seen in my life strangeness enough." Elahan said.
"And close at hand." Osmand quipped.
The druid continued. "It is a desecration of the mothers flesh. You gather her teeth in little piles. You wear her bones proudly upon your breast."
Elahan scowled. "You would have us worshiping the bones instead? You court damnation, truly."
"You, who have removed yourself from the ecology of your fathers, would lecture us? To remove yourself from the wheel is a fate worse than death. It is we who are reborn a thousand times."
"Aye, but none as slugs." Said Osmand, who had been widely read on the many and varied theories of druidic incarnation. "You in your conceit have been the bear, or stag, or noble lion. But which among you has been the wretched squealing boar?"
Of the two druids who had not spoken, the woman now stepped forward. "Perhaps your companion. Surely he is like enough to satisfy you."
Elahan scoffed, and drew himself up proudly.
"A thousand pagan tongues have cursed me. Like the faintest rays of sunlight upon the water, are the idle words of savages reflected."
At this the druids bristled. They clutched up their spears and the one who had remained silent thus far now emerged into a fierce ululation.
Their leader seemed to be considering the insult. "Savages? You, who reek with the vapor of smoke, would lecture us on civility?"
None spoke. A falcon sounded overheard, its voice thin and lost among the cirrus.
"No man restricts my movement. And any who seek to do so will know the truth of my faith."
Osmand now stepped forward. A thin band of solid orange flame coalesced around him, and the druids sprang back in surprise.
At this, a large and regal cat that had been lazing and watching these proceedings without apparent interest now stood and stretched and yammered loudly. The druids turned, regarding the animal with a certain deferential expression. For whatever reason, the druids refused to parley further, and sank wordlessly back into the woods. The cat now likewise retreated.
The ovate track of fire he had summoned now dissipated harmlessly, leaving him wavering slightly on his feet. He regarded the forest with a newfound weariness.
"I wasnt sure what all could be done to enhance the perils of our journey. But you seemed to have achieved all relevant possibilities on the matter."
Elahan clasped shut the hilt of his blade. He replied that the children of Mana were subject to none but Him, His Will, and that Osmand had been no still-tongued conciliator himself. Osmand shrugged, and yielded the point with a delicate diplomacy.
The days ahead would see them ride west, pursuing in its constant wanderlust the trembling eye of the sun. Navigating the forest highland with their eyes upturned like the primitive devotees of some forgotten solstic faith. Riding by day through stands of flowering golden acacia, and clutches of the pale and sinister moonflower at night. They camped on the banks of a lagoon colored roseate by the evening sun, then blanched white under the moon in its pale circumference as they slept. When they woke an egret was negotiating the break on its thin and slender stilts. It regarded them dimly with it's dull lacquered eyes.
From high on that forest shelf and in the pre-dawn light, they spotted smoke roiling upward in the vast panorama of the valley below. A clutch of flames burned uncontrolled somewhere deep in the heart of the woodland basin.
"Perhaps the druids." Elahan said. "Sat in ambush against us."
Osmand studied the flames in quiet supposition. He shrugged.
"Perhaps." He offered.
Elahan regarded him in vague disgust but spoke no more on the subject. They mounted and rode on. They would descend that morning onto the low valley floor, where they endured with less and less equanimity the constant squabbling of birds, in contest over some perch. Iridescent green boas hung from the low branches like twists of ersatz kudzu. Crouched in the undergrowth were the squat frames of ocelots, where they awaited with great discretion the missteps of more manageable prey. And in the dark, richly-coloured barn owls streaked overhead like faded and ghostly comets.
The next day they rode through a mining camp the druids had destroyed. it's laborers had been slaughtered, and deposited along with their implements into the central pit of operation, like so much chaff. Their gore-slaked corpses lay in a great heap at the bottom of that cauldron, wherein all differences had been resolved and none had been granted exception from that communal fate. As if the druids had gone about the massacre like something stipulated long ago by their forefathers, and the miners as the bloodborne legatees come to fulfill that ancestral debt. Some had been scalped, or left with bloodied lidless eyes with which to regard the cycling horizons forever, until they were dried and gone, or eaten from their heads by what carrion beasts lurked beyond the outer wood.
"Oh my God." Elahan said.In one corner of the camp stood the miners' meagre dwellings. It was just a clutch of sagging wooden huts sinking back into the mud. Beyond that a goatyard sat empty, the enclosure replete with prints and the dry round droppings of what stock had once populated it. Freshly laid on a table nearby were plates of roasted shoat, and baskets of hardtack, and simple glass carafes filled with meads or beers or wine. As if the two riders had encroached upon some ghostly woodland bacchanal, that could hardly have been said to have existed at all without their witnessing it. As if the spirits of the world gathered here in secret colloquoy, where they might conspire against the mortal realm.
In one of the huts the druids had festooned a man with feather bundles and daubed all along his naked body a number of twisted and outlandish symbols. The man had died on his side with his legs and arms curled against him like some late spider. And frozen in his countenance was a certain madness, and he too had been divested of his eyelids. Such was his state that it seemed as if he'd been no victim of the druids at all, but a hapless wanderer who in his travels had come up against the raw edge of the universe, past which loomed such primordial beings that any mind attempting their encapsulation was left deaf and dumb and gibbering.
"Let's go on." Elahan said.
"What does it say of God, that they might die in this way? Each of these faithful, having lived a storied life..."
"You would know the Will of God?" Elahan answered. "You would know His mind, as you do the will of the stars and moon and stone?"
"I can know only what I see. That this was the long arc of their existence. That they might live, so they could die scrabbling against the walls of that pit like terrified cats."
"Hold your blasphemous tongue. Or I wll have it out."
That was the extent of their counsel. They mounted up and rode on, neither of them keen to stay on in that place.
I'd appreciate some help with transitioning between paragraphs and events. Like when the druids first show up. I feel like the transitions are too sudden or jarring.
I also am trying to reproduce the style and feel of the bible and ancient history texts, to lend weight to my fantasy world. The story is more about the characters religious changes in response to world events. Id like the plot to be in the background, its more about how the two main characters change as people. Any help on how to achieve this would be helpful because its really hard for me, lol.
Thank you for reading.
I also dont know how to format on reddit and im not even on mobile lol
2023.03.30 02:39 vinit__singh What is a list of programming languages ordered from easiest to hardest to learn?
 | The adage "the hardest programming language is your first" is frequently heard. While this may be true for the first few days, several languages can continue to hold the title of hardest programming language for an extended period of time. submitted by vinit__singh to CodingInterviewHelp [link] [comments] Some complex programming languages are not intended for general use. Depending on your educational background, as well as your limitations, any programming language might be easy or difficult. It primarily depends on the logic you apply while coding to produce the desired result, as well as how much time you spend coding—practice is necessary. https://preview.redd.it/tjjk7pxmvrqa1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=25c1283c70647b8b5f9b10c3de2514eb198d7bd0 Among the programming languages, HTML, JavaScript, Python, PHP, and Ruby are regarded as the simplest to learn. They have pre-built routines or libraries and a reasonably straightforward syntax. This makes it one of the most widely used programming languages and quite beginner friendly. The hardest programming languages to learn are thought to be C++, Assembly Language, and Esoteric Languages (Cow, Malbolge, Whitespace, etc.). Some of them are challenging enough to upset their creators. Some use more complicated syntax but provide highly effective outcomes for particular requirements. HTML HTML or Hypertext Markup Language is regarded as the easiest programming language to learn. It is used to define the text, color, and appearance of other dynamic elements/buttons on the webpage. https://preview.redd.it/cckpcyvnvrqa1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=b5641a0d018d738f6914e591d7a3b97e5fd9e443 Applications of HTML Create web pages Define web elements structures Defines the appearance of web elements Modified versions of HTML are used to define pages and entire web applications. Eg: FBML in the case of Facebook. Why HTML is Easy Easy to understand, learn and remember the syntax Simple open and close tags to implement core actions Easy debugging JavaScript JavaScript is a web programming language that allows you to develop interactive client-side web elements or web pages. For beginners, it's one of the simpler programming languages. One may create client-side and server-side web applications and websites by combining HTML and CSS with frameworks like Node, Angular, and React. As a result, it is regarded as one of the top programming languages for creating websites. https://preview.redd.it/mxtpkpyovrqa1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=9d1e0c6c6c5ad11f1f1269bced531b57ec910cbf Applications of JavaScript Build client-side of the website Build served side through in combination with Node.JS Build browser-based games Develop interactive, engaging mobile and web applications Why JavaScript is Easy Can be compiled with most browsers to get real-time results Highly popular. Thus, many resources for effective learning Greater results in fewer efforts Great building block to learning other languages Python Python is a fairly easy, all-purpose programming language to learn because of its easy-to-understand syntax and variety of libraries, and ready-made functions. This makes Python a good language for beginners to learn as well. https://preview.redd.it/oqbk8tzpvrqa1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=b65a0f80d06035fe048b65a2872a6aa2ac7e22ce Applications of Python Extensively used for machine learning Used for data science and data analytics Create programs for IoT and electronics Web development through Django or Flask Why Python is Easy It uses English words in its syntax making Python programs highly readable and understandable The syntax uses a lot of white space which makes it appear less overwhelming It’s easy to debug A great number of ready-made libraries and functions. Java JAVA is one of the most popular programming languages for software and application development. It extensively uses object-oriented programming and is among the easiest programming languages to learn. It works on the Write Once, Run Everywhere concept. https://preview.redd.it/t2deznzqvrqa1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=c4965d371440ef769ca7c5e83e60ff54bf8eb7c1 Applications of JAVA Build desktop software Build mobile applications with elaborate backend support Game development Big Data applications Why JAVA is Easy Easy for people with prior experience in object-oriented programming The syntax uses words from the English language Concise nature of codes C++ C++ is an extensive programming language that helps build programs where the hardware and software are intricately involved. Interacting with memory is a little difficult in C++ and the advanced syntax could put off beginners. https://preview.redd.it/w6ue2m1svrqa1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=f777cee8c8a09a599ee99b4a94ba49734e28cf5c Applications of C++ Build operating systems. Eg: Linux Kernel, Google Chrome OS, etc. Build elaborate software like Photoshop. Build GUI-based applications like Microsoft Office. Build database management software Why C++ is Tough It has a very typical, specific, and complex syntax It’s difficult to learn without learning C It’s tricky to manage memory Although highly efficient, C++ is a very dynamic language and it’s a little difficult to keep track. Which programming language should you learn? Choosing the best programming language to learn could be a task for a newbie. Although there are numerous coding bootcamps, online tech courses, videos, books, and websites to learn coding, you can keep the following factors in mind before choosing a language to learn: Intention, Use case, Difficulty level. Learning Resources and Community In the tech world, the learning community plays a very important role in ensuring your growth. You can see which coding languages have the best and bigger community if you’re a beginner. Similarly, you must have access to good learning resources if you are going to learn a new coding language. So, it’s wiser to choose a coding language that has easily accessible, good-quality learning resources available from the start. A few of the good websites that provide good courses in these IT fields include – Logicmojo, Educative, Scaler, etc. Conclusion There are several advantages to learning new programming languages. In the realm of technology, you increase your knowledge, develop as a programmer, and broaden your horizons. Yet, you have to realize that it's a never-ending process. Instead of focusing on studying the easiest or most difficult programming language, one should place a larger importance on learning a relevant and useful programming language. I hope that this post will help you choose which programming languages are the simplest and hardest to learn. Thanks for reading and all the best. |

2023.03.30 02:23 North_Cliff FOR SALE: One soul, hardly used.
Guys, I messed up big time.
I’ll preface this with explaining that I’ve been an auction addict for a while now. I’m always scrolling through different online auction houses and estate sale listings for cool things that people are getting rid of for a bargain. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a hoarder. I only buy things I know I have room for, but I scroll and dream and pin as if I have a gigantic sprawling mansion to fill. I’ve made accounts on numerous sites.
No, I didn’t buy a haunted antique. Or a cursed antique. What I did was much much worse!
I got a cool looking offer sent to my phone one day asking if I wanted to join a new auction site. Everything about it sounded fantastic. I really didn’t think twice about joining. FIRST MISTAKE.
Before I was allowed to make an account, there was one of those super long terms/agreements/conditions/blahblahblah etc. things that I had to read and sign.… I scrolled through quickly, skimming… as I usually do…
GUYS, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS READ THOSE THINGS!!!
Because I didn’t. And I literally just signed my soul over to the devil.
Like, THE ACTUAL DEVIL.
To be 100% clear here:
THE DEVIL - SATAN, HIMSELF -
NOW. OWNS. MY. SOUL.
And now he’s trying to sell it.
And, guys, I can’t afford to buy it back!
Have any of you found yourself in this particular perilous pickle? I know I’m not the only one who has signed over their soul because I can see numerous other souls for sale on the site.
And I’m assuming people aren’t always lured into signing by promises of cool antiques too. How many souls could Satan snatch through antiques? Not that many, I bet. I bet Satan is smart enough to draw you in by what you really love. For me, it was antiques, for you, it could’ve been a sale on designer shoes, cars, or maybe crafting supplies.
For those of you doubting if this is real, well… fair. It is pretty hard to believe.
Originally, when I went into the site and saw “FOR SALE: One soul, hardly used” with a photo of me beside it captioned: “the current vessel”, I thought it was an offensive joke. And “hardly used”. What was that supposed to mean?? I deleted my account immediately.
I didn’t believe any of it was real until Satan called.
At midnight that night, my phone rang. I had been dead asleep. Who was calling me at midnight, I wondered blearily. I picked up my phone and looked at the call display.
It said: “The Devil”.
That unnerved me. I figured it was connected to that stupid site I had joined. I swiped to decline the call and put my phone down.
No sooner was it back on my nightside table, my phone was ringing again. I looked at it. This time, the call display said: “Satan, Himself.”
I swiftly declined the call and immediately turned my phone’s power off.
After that, the phone stayed silent. Until 3am.
At 3am my phone started ringing again. But this time it was a FaceTime call. The call display read: “PICK UP”. My heart leapt in my chest. I had turned off my phone. I know I did. How did it turn back on??
I leapt out of bed and flew to the other side of the room. I didn’t want to touch the phone. I didn’t want to be anywhere near it.
I let the phone keep ringing. And ringing. Then it stopped. I waited in silence. Then-
KNOCK. KNOCK. KNOCK.
Someone was at my front door! I froze, absolutely petrified.
Then a thought struck me - I couldn’t remember if I had locked my door! I’m notorious at forgetting to lock it. I summoned enough courage to slowly peak my head out of my room so I could view the front door.
Through the frosted glass, I could see someone tall standing there, waiting, on the other side of the door. I pulled my eyes away from the figure to look to the deadbolt on my door. Fuck. I had left the door unlocked! Fuck!
KNOCK. KNOCK. KNOCK. Again. A firm but patient knock.
Heart pounding, I knelt down and crawled as quietly as I could to the door. Then I slid the deadbolt shut. I pressed my head into the door with relief. I thought I was safe but-
“Hello,” a smooth voice said from behind me. I whipped around. Standing there, was a man. He was tall, wearing a perfectly tailored suit. He was extremely attractive.
“It was quite rude not to answer,” he said in the same smooth voice he greeted me with.
“Who are you?” I managed to squeak out, feeling like a terrified mouse cowering in front of a panther.
“I know you know the answer to that.” He replied with a smile, though the smile didn’t reach his eyes. “But, if you need to hear it said out loud… I am Satan. You sold your soul to me.”
“How did you get in?” I asked with a trembling voice. Although a million questions were flying about my brain, that was the only one I was able to process enough to push out of my mouth.
“That doesn’t really matter, does it?” He answered. “All that matters is that I can always get to you, no matter where you are. The calls, the knocking on the door, that was just a formality. I like formalities. That’s why I’m here. I noticed you deleted your account, and I wanted to make sure you had a copy of our agreement for your records.”
He handed me a large envelope. I opened it. Inside was a tidy stack of paper. The “Terms & Conditions” agreement I had scrolled through so quickly online. My head was swimming, but as I turned the pages, words jumped out at me that I hadn’t noticed the first time: “your soul”, “waive rights for eternity”, “everlasting ownership to Satan (aka the Devil)”…
My eyes focused on the signature on the last page. My signature.
I went wild. I ripped the agreement in two. Then continued ripping and ripping until the whole thing was basically confetti on the floor around me.
Satan stood still, waiting until I was done. Then: “That was just a copy. I have the original, and as the agreement stated, the signature is eternally binding.”
He then calmly produced another envelope and held it out to me.
“Here’s another copy. For your records.”
I refused to take it. He gently placed it on my living room table.
“When your soul has been sold, I will come to collect it. I will, of course, do you the courtesy of calling before so you are aware when I am coming so you can prepare yourself. It’s your choice whether or not you want to answer the call. But, as you know, I will come either way. So, until we meet again, goodbye.”
Then, with a little nod of the head to me, he was gone.
I was left frozen, willing my lungs to remember how to breathe.
Guys, I don’t know what to do. I deleted my account, so I can’t even see if anyone is bidding on my soul. Does anyone have a lawyer that can help me get out of the agreement? Also, what happens when he collects my soul?? How long does it usually take to sell a soul? How long do you think I have? A day, a week, months, years? Is there anywhere I can hide? I’m in serious need of help - guidance - recommendations - suggestions - anything really. I don’t
Fuck.
Guys, my phone is ringing.

“When your soul has been sold, I will come to collect it. I will, of course, do you the courtesy of calling before so you are aware when I am coming so you can prepare yourself. It’s your choice whether or not you want to answer the call. But, as you know, I will come either way. So, until we meet again, goodbye.”
Then, with a little nod of the head to me, he was gone.
I was left frozen, willing my lungs to remember how to breathe.
Guys, I don’t know what to do. I deleted my account, so I can’t even see if anyone is bidding on my soul. Does anyone have a lawyer that can help me get out of the agreement? Also, what happens when he collects my soul?? How long does it usually take to sell a soul? How long do you think I have? A day, a week, months, years? Is there anywhere I can hide? I’m in serious need of help - guidance - recommendations - suggestions - anything really. I don’t
Fuck.
Guys, my phone is ringing.
2023.03.30 02:22 mreichhoff Free frequency dictionary and study tool to learn hanzi and see how words flow together, available in Simplified, Traditional, or Cantonese
I made a free, open-source tool for learning Chinese. You can check out a demo, or use it with simplified characters, traditional characters, or (less fully featured, but it's something) Cantonese.
The key ideas are twofold:
To emphasize the connections among words and characters you learn.
It does this by: * emphasizing the way hanzi are most commonly connected to form words in a node network diagram * showing the ways words are most commonly connected in sentences via sankey diagrams (like this). For a beginner example, it's useful to see that 时候 is most often preceded by 的.
It also has tens of thousands of example sentences that tie it all together.
To ensure relevance.
It does this in a few ways. One is by generating graphs that can answer the question: "if I learned the words or characters in order of frequency, up to this word or character, what percentage of text would I understand?" This enables beginners to seek out words that are needed, and advanced learners to understand how far along the frequency curve the word or character is. I've found this extremely useful when deciding what to prioritize while watching TV or reading.
Another is via the diagrams incorporating frequency data: the tallest bars in the flow diagrams are the most common collocations, the node networks are color coded, and the sentences are always sorted by frequency. This helps you learn the most common contexts a word is used in.
The tool should enable finding any Chinese or English word in CEDICT, and you can also type in a bunch of text and it'll break it down into words for you (like this).
It also has built-in flashcards, which you can study in the tool or export to anki, in-browser TTS to hear pronunciation, stats about what you've seen and studied, you can deeplink to any word you want (like study, 右轉 in traditional, or 行路 in Cantonese), and more.
Let me know of any feedback, and feel free to check out the code! The tool is completely free, with no monetary interest for me. I just think it's fun to use and work on, so I thought I'd share.
Note: I posted an earlier version of it last year, and you may have a cached version. Try incognito or opening/closing the tab if it doesn't look like the demo.

2023.03.30 02:19 Skywave28 Online Cannabis Grow Guide
Don’t have much information but a while back (2014ish) I started growing using a blocky early 00’s website. It was colorful (mainly rasta), informative, and had a link to Ganja Farmer by Marlon Asher towards the bottom of the guide. Structured more in paragraphs than lists and had instructions on different methods, indoor and outdoor.
Search engines no longer filter results properly and shows me ads. I checked wayback machine for a few now-404 sites I thought could be it (420growguide being one), but although there are screenshots, they don’t appear for me. I know I can just find a new one, but I enjoyed the page and would like to check the info on this specific guide again.
Anyone remember this site or know if they made a new domain, updated the webpage, or simply took it down? Any help is appreciated.

2023.03.30 02:01 COD_Mobile_Official Call of Duty: Mobile - March 29th Community Update
 | submitted by COD_Mobile_Official to CallOfDutyMobile [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/9631pptnerqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=988db57fd1e1a5be38809209aeff1868a92fd645 Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back and beyond excited to share that Call of Duty: Mobile Season 3: RUSH is now live! This season is full of good vibes, colorful content, and new ways to play! Before we RUSH into all the new things Season 3 brings…and we promise that will be the last RUSH pun in the update… let’s check out our official Season 3 trailer to get the party started! https://reddit.com/link/12659vh/video/05g02go2frqa1/player Now that our boogie shoes are on it’s time to get into the rest of the Update. In this Community Update, we will be covering all of the new content coming to COD:M in Season 3 – RUSH, including the new Battle Pass and Battle Pass Vault, new MP Map, new weapon, new scorestreak, new quality of life changes, and more. Let’s groove! https://preview.redd.it/x2l2l4u6frqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=1349816984be8c8523c4852dfb336640e4ce51db As always, let’s start with a quick look at all the newest events launching throughout the next week:
In addition to all of the modes and events listed above, this season has a ton of new content coming like new operators and blueprints. You can see some of the new content that is coming now and later in the Season in our Roadmap below – https://preview.redd.it/7adkupjefrqa1.png?width=974&format=png&auto=webp&s=f6ba44f1462554fb752a2039c516b774f90e46da Battle Pass The Season 3: RUSH Battle Pass is now live! This new pass features Epic operators: Rivas, Darkwave, Domino, and Stitch. The weapons in the pass include the KRM-262, ASM10, KN-44, Razorback, and the new sniper the HDR. Also in the Battle Pass is the new Scorestreak the Wheelson as well as a variety of other items and blueprints. Below you’ll find highlights of both the free and paid versions of the Battle Pass, as well as our Battle Pass trailer so you can see the operators and weapons in action! Free Battle Pass
Premium Pass
~ Parachute – Oil Spill ~ Glow Stick – Oil Spill ~ Avatar – Besides Oneself ~ Frame – Oil Spill ~ Calling Card – Rainbow Renegade And on top, of that, we have our Ground Forces Subscription! Join Ground Forces and unlock the following –
In addition to our Battle Pass offer, we have our usual Battle Pass from the past in our Battle Pass Vault. This season in the Battle Pass Vault is the 2020 Battle Pass from Season 10: The Hunt. This means if you happened to miss The Hunt’s Battle Pass the first time now is your chance! The Battle Pass Vault Season 10: The Hunt will include –
https://reddit.com/link/12659vh/video/7fouhsa1grqa1/player New Weapon – HDR Sniper lovers rejoice! Now available at tier 21 in the free path of the Battle Pass is the new Sniper – HDR. The HDR is a bolt-action sniper rifle originally from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. This new functional weapon is a powerful, heavy sniper that sacrifices movement speed for its high damage. However, you can mix and match attachments like any of our weapons in-game to make the build that fits your playing style, one recommended build we have can be seen below - https://preview.redd.it/qpfxl7s3grqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=8d7a0b9436650f95c61726be4689a5599751e376 In addition to the base version of this weapon at tier 21, an Epic version of the weapon – the HDR – Iridescent Lines is available at tier 50 of the premium Battle Pass. And, if you keep an eye out, you’ll see a Legendary version of the HDR available in a draw later in the season! New Scorestreak – Wheelson Available at tier 14 of the free Battle Pass is the latest scorestreak coming to Call of Duty: Mobile – Wheelson. Popular in the Modern Warfare series the Wheelson has rolled its way into COD:M Season 3 – RUSH. The Wheelson is a UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) with a powerful turret. After calling in this scorestreak, players will be able to control the Wheelson by remote control, driving over rough terrain and eliminating enemies with its incredible firepower. The Wheelson is deceptively agile and can fit into tight spaces, so don’t think you are safe from an enemy Wheelson just because you ran into a building! New MP Map – Rush First seen in Call of Duty: Black Ops II and again in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War the colorful MP Map Rush has made its way to Call of Duty: Mobile! Rush takes place centered around a paintball field where players can engage in fast-paced high-intensity closer encounters. If you are planning on Rushing to the paintball field we recommend doing so with your favorite SMG. Outside of the paintball field is an area of admin buildings filled with various tight corners to continue close encounter engagement, but also various windows and long sightlines for players who like longer-range combat. Rush will be launching later in the season, so be sure and keep an eye out on our socials to drop in! https://preview.redd.it/po2egk0cgrqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=dace10f127d21ba8f42116b17afff45523e72089 Safe House Safe House is the newest “quality of life” update in Call of Duty: Mobile and it's now live in Season 3!

Also available in the Safe House is - Background Music Customization We know how much our Community loves COD:M music. And since this season is all about the party, thumping bass, and high-tempo melody, we decided to give our players not just to option of the groovy Season 3 – RUSH theme music to play in-game but more songs! Now players are able to choose their background music with choices between the themes of Season 3 – RUSH, Season 3 – Radical Raid (2022), and Season 9 – Nightmare (2021). To change the current theme music for your game click the music note and CD icon in the top right-hand corner of the Safehouse menu. From this menu, you can choose which Season theme songs you have access to play in any order you like in your COD:M lobby. Looking ahead, the plan in future seasons is to make various past theme music available for players to earn through our events! We hope you all are excited to vibe to past season’s themes, we know we are! As with any new feature, we would love to hear your thoughts on this, as well as your favorite past Season’s theme music we should bring back. BR Training Ground Call of Duty: Mobile has been around for a long time now (and isn’t going anywhere) but after 3 plus years of this amazing game we wanted to give our players more ways to improve their skills this season.

Welcome!
I am Michael, a dungeonmaster, father, and biochemist. I am looking for adventurers to delve into my original homebrew campaign. Prepare yourselves for an exciting 2 year game that is welcome to all ages and experiences.About Myself
I started off in Rolemaster playing in a long-term campaign and transitioned to running my own games in D&D 3.5. Over the last 10+ years, I have ran many campaigns and modules to completion in both 3.5E and 5E.I began to run paid games several years ago to support play testing my campaign for publication. By joining, you will be brought into an original copyrighted homebrew campaign that is well over 900 pages of notes and maps. Throughout the campaign, you will experience a world filled with rich lore, depth, and realistic conflict that is well beyond any adventure module you have played.
Why run a paid game?
My campaign can easily exceed 2 years worth of weekly 4 hour sessions and has done so with many groups. It is important to find quality players willing and able to go the distance. Not only will your payment support a fully functioning Foundry VTT server, paid modules, and stream, but it will also help ensure campaign completion.Worried that you can’t play because you missed payment? No worries, this is your game, and it is NOT a business.
In my game, you are treated like a friend and/or family member sitting at our tabletop. If there are any issues that arise, you let me know and we will work something out to ensure you can continue to play.
We are LGBTQ+ Friendly & accommodate players who cannot or do not want to have their cameras running during the stream and game.
Chosen Ones
You find yourself aboard a transoceanic galleon that travels the world to transport cargo and people. Owned and chartered by the Farwater Company based out of Elathin, the Striker is one of two sister vessels that are worthy of making journeys for upwards of an entire year before repairs are required. Captain Kelut Yon was hired on by the Farwater Company roughly a decade ago and has done well in their service. Crew and deckhands are hired from across the world and are paid by the Farwater Company when the ship comes in for repairs at Elathin's port.Have questions about me or the game? Please contact me on Discord. Links below!
The voyage across the oceans to new worlds has been tiresome and long. Many of the passengers have been long haulers while others only joined at the last port several weeks ago. Regardless of your reasons to board the Striker, it has been told that Aurtheria’s ports are closed. Rumor has spread that a Talthar naval blockade sits on the mouth of Cedric Bay. Captain Kelut Yon is not pleased and has shown his disdain in the last few days. Traveling in the Forgotten Sea to the West of the Frosthorn, Captain Kelut Yon has called a meeting with some of the passengers and crew about what to do next.
You are currently in possession of a gemstone with a unique color. The stone is 1” in length, egg shaped, opaque, and rough cut. It could be a family heirloom, a grand prize you won in a sport of bloodshed, or treasure found in a forbidden cove of some isle. You keep this keepsake in a ring, amulet, setting, or pocket and are reluctant to part ways with it. Perhaps you believe it gives you luck or reminds you of someone. In the past days, you have felt a stronger connection to it. Something that feels intangible.
Snow and freezing rain howl in the Forgotten Sea and Far North of Aurtheria on the 17th of Barrakas. The year is 361 AT or 3711 AN. Deckhands using wooden mallets smash away at the ice to clear the deck, rigging, and sails. Many of the passengers dare not go top side for too long as the temperatures are quite cold. The galley, located in the mid deck, is quite packed with people that need ale and food to keep warm. Many others have resorted to their bunks or cabins to stay sheltered. The sounds of the wooden mallets and clanging from the kitchen nearby shunt the crashes of the waves against the hull of the wooden ship as it rocks back and forth in the rough Forgotten Seas.
In one hour, Captain Kelut Yon’s meeting will be held. You have been invited to attend as well as your acquaintances. These people are uncommon to the common and you have been drawn to them. Perhaps you even spent some time with them during your journey. Regardless, you know their names and little else unless they have provided more information.
The galley bell rings, breakfast is ready.
