Cy-Fy reacted to Stormerzgeek Deraj in Is this a good time to buy Bose QC35 II?
In accordance to the pattern of release dates qc 25 launched on 2014 , qc35 on 2016 and qc35 ll in end of mid 2017. So if Bose doesn't consider qc35 ll as a separate model, there are chances for possibly a qc45 in 2018. But I have currently have the qc35 which I just got few months back, and if you ask me it's a really good pair of headphone and for me even better than the pxc 550 in sound and noise cancelling aspects. So unless you have been saving up for a quality pair of headphones for a long time, you won't regret buying qc35 ll. To your concern even the qc25 is still a great pair of headphones.

Cy-Fy reacted to typographie in Alternative to CyanogenMod?
I installed Lineage like I installed CM: I dropped the file and Gapps onto my phone's internal storage, rebooted into TWRP, and flashed the ROMs. I don't know how to use other methods, or what others are available.
I haven't used TouchWiz on this S3 in several years, so how it performed is not fresh in my mind. I went through several years and versions of CyanogenMod before trying Lineage. I will say I didn't notice a drop in UI performance going from CM14 to Lineage, which is all I really hope for with hardware half a decade older than the software.

Cy-Fy reacted to Dash Lambda in A simple math question that I dont know.
Two points are always collinear, because two points define a line. It is only possible for a set of points to not be collinear when it consists of three or more.

Cy-Fy got a reaction from Teddy07 in College degree
I was in a similar position to you in that I just graduated school and had to make up my mind. I decided not to take a gap year so will be starting university in October. If I am very honest with you I wouldn't listen too much to the people who say a background in media won't be helpful or that anyone can do it, and I don't mean any disrespect to the other repliers but in my opinion you have, you must, do exactly what you are passionate about. You cannot let other people dictate what you enjoy doing because at the end of the day if you take up a degree of something you absolutely enjoy you will do extremely well in assignments and projects and it will just make you stand out because you have passion, and once you do that you don't need to worry too much about job prospects because your track record will be able to speak for itself.
I think you need to use this gap year you're going to take to either research about future jobs or maybe do some work experience or shadowing with people who have taken each of the three subjects you are deciding about.
Just to be clear I'm not saying that media is the best idea in the world, but more importantly I'm not saying it isn't, especially for you specifically. I do understand that some people will rightly say that future prospects in media will be more difficult to achieve than in other areas but maybe there are areas within media that you haven't considered like not just video production but other areas of creative arts if you are an artsy person like graphic design or web design or if you are a person who cares more about user experience then maybe interactions design. You could also get involved with the technical side of media like production equipment, lighting, sound, post processing, these are all huge areas that make up "media" but don't require you to do a degree in "media" if you know what I mean.
Lastly I just want to highlight that you mention that game design is what you "would want to do" until LTT came along. It is important to figure out whether your love for all things related to media is just something that you feel now whereas game design is something you truly love or whether you really discovered what makes you happy.

yep just to add to Dash Lambda above to see if it's easier to understand: To find if three points are collinear you would try to draw a straight line which passes through all three points right? If any points cannot be on the line because it isn't inline with the others then they're not collinear. Now take two points and see if they are collinear, draw a line joining the two... you'll always be able to.

I agree that passion is important you also have to keep in mind. I want to note that I just give advice and nothing more.
Very good advice. He should definitely follow his passion but also have to do his research about job opportunities, salary, workload.... after his degree.
I agree but you can learn about founding a business by reading some books and so on. You don't need to study economics for that. You also have to keep in mind that you have a huge competition because a lot of people study it.
I didn't like the content over the past year + I play way less PC now + I basically only watched the WAN show + I did unsubscribe from quite a few channels as I dont want to be distracted by all the new videos....

It deletes all the files, folders ect, and reinstalls the operating system that you have installed when you click it, so win 10

Cy-Fy reacted to Fetzie in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
Thick sole, a decent tread and ankle support. Thick sole means your feet aren't getting hurt by every little bit of gravel that makes itself felt through the bottom of the shoe. Decent tread gives you grip and the ankle/Achilles support means you won't turn your foot over halfway up and have to limp back down or call mountain rescue.

Cy-Fy reacted to CtrlAltELITE in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
I do a fair bit of camping & hiking. I use a pair of Timberland work boots i've had for years (and wear to work).
Anything with a thick sole and ankle support should do you good. MAKE SURE TO BREAK IN YOUR BOOTS A FEW WEEKS BEFORE YOU LEAVE!!!!

Cy-Fy reacted to Yuval in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
They won't do shit, they won't be stable and you will fall. Don't get boots if the hike is close you need a week or so to break a new pair in. Running shoes are also intended to be used on soil and roads so it's the better choice

Cy-Fy reacted to Nup in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
So long as it has ankle support your good, get some lighter hiking boots if you wont use heavy ones often
-
Cy-Fy reacted to Charger in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
if you get new shoes dont forget to break them in before or else that will probably be painful in the long run anyways.

Cy-Fy reacted to GeekJump in What shoes to wear for a walk up a mountain?
If you walk over moss or wet rocks and the incline is steep enough, you'll def slip if you don't pay attention. After my first couple slips I paid extra attention to my footing but my feet still got sore from using running shoes. Learned my lesson and used boots after that.

Cy-Fy reacted to Techicolors in Is the Logitech G29 + Shifter worth it at £200 ?
mostly because there's the g27, which is still a solid wheel and pedal set. the g29 will get the job done, but it's far more expensive. plus the shifter is sold separately now, even though the g27 had the shifter included
it's very much worth of price if you're serious about sim racing.
it's either the t500rs or fanatec

Cy-Fy reacted to ShadowCaptain in Mechanical vs Aerospace Engineering?
My brother did mechanical engineering and now works for Jaguar Land Rover with an awesome job
I would say, go after your area of interest

Cy-Fy got a reaction from ionbasa in Mechanical vs Aerospace Engineering?
thank you all very much for your advice... although I must say @TopDollar is the only one so far who has voted for Aerospace engineering My fear is that, due to the fact that mechanical engineering is so broad you might end up doing work on areas or topics that you don't really like. Whereas in aerospace engineering even though there are less jobs, you still have a pretty good idea of what you'll end up doing after you graduate. For example after I graduate as a ME I may be lucky and find a job where I help design and test parts for an engine (just an example) or I may not be so lucky and end up in a job where I have to do maintenance to some machinery. However when I think of AE jobs it seems like they all work on the newest technologies available and the jobs seem much more innovative and cutting edge. Am I getting the wrong idea about each degree?

Blender is good apparently, although it doesn't work with solids but with surfaces as it is technically designed for animation but I guess you can use it for whatever you like.

Cy-Fy reacted to TheCaptain53 in Suggestions
Depends how you define 'out of the box performance'. It also varies with different work loads.
If you were building a purely rendering rig, FX-8350 all the way. For gaming, go Intel. Do it, thank us later.
Your statement is actually incorrect, you need to overclock the nuts off AMD chips to be competitive with equivalent Intel chips. Some benchmarks have shown the FX-9590 be beaten by an i3. A fucking i3. The FX-series architecture is ancient and not worth considering for a gaming rig.
Xfire R7 360s is a terrible idea. When you have two video cards working together, they don't pool their VRAM. The data on the VRAM is cloned between each card. So you'd still have an effective 2GB of usable VRAM.
You can't compare the clocks of two totally different cards with totally different GPUs. Comparing these clocks is okay if you're comparing an MSI GTX 970 with say an EVGA GTX 970 SC, but comparing an EVGA GTX 750 Ti FTW with an EVGA GTX 970 SC is pointless. The same applies for AMD.
