WHY IS IT THAT IN 2023 I AM BETTER OFF READING BAD DOCUMENTATION AND FIGURING OUT HOW A LIBRARY WORKS MYSELF, RATHER THAN FOLLOWING WHAT SHOULD BE A SIMPLE TUTORIAL ON HOW TO USE A LIBRARY? PYSIMPLEGUI AND PYGAME ARE PERFECT EXAMPLES. PYSIMPLEGUI'S DOCUMENTATION IS FRUSTRATINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND (THEY DON'T CALL IT DOCUMENTATION) AND THE DOCUMENTATION IS SPREAD ACROSS MULTIPLE DIFFERENT PAGES. IN FACT, THE HOME PAGE ACTS AS IF IT IS DOCUMENTATION. THE DOCUMENTATION IS ALSO AUTO-GENERATED AND CLAIMS THAT IT MAY NOT EVEN BE CORRECT. DESPITE ALL OF THESE STUPID PROBLEMS, IT IS STILL BETTER THAN MOST TUTORIALS I HAVE FOUND ON PYSIMPLEGUI. ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS PYGAME. TODAY I WAS READING THROUGH SOME DOCUMENTATION OF PYGAME AND I GOT TO A POINT WHERE IT SEEMED IF I WANT TO DO COLLISION DETECTION, I SHOULD BE USING SPRITE OBJECTS RATHER THAN DRAWING TO THE SCREEN. SO I LOOK UP A COUPLE TUTORIALS THAT USE SPRITE OBJECTS BECAUSE PYGAMES DOCUMENTATION ON SPRITES IS UNUSABLE. I FOUND TWO PYGAME TUTORIAL LINKS THAT SEEMED ALRIGHT REALPYTHON.COM AND RYANSTUTORIALS.NET. NOTICE THAT RYANS TUTORIALS DOESN'T USE SPRITES. THAT'S COOL, MAYBE I CAN LEARN HOW TO DO COLLISION DETECTION WITHOUT USING SPRITES EVEN THOUGH I SAW NOTHING ABOUT THAT IN PYGAMES DOCUMENTATION. FOR SOME REASON BOTH OF THE TUTORIALS DO NOT INCLUDE A LINK TO DOWNLOAD THE COMPLETE SOURCE. I DON'T WANT TO PIECEMEAL TOGETHER THE BITS OF CODE, I WANT TO DOWNLOAD YOUR CODE AND JUST SEE HOW IT WORKS. REALPYTHON DOES HAVE A DOWNLOAD LINK BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE THEM YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS. FUCK THAT, LEARN WHAT OPEN SOURCE IS.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT WATCHES
I OFTEN GET ASKED STUPID QUESTIONS FROM STUPID PEOPLE ABOUT TOPICS RELATED TO HOROLOGY. WATCHES WILL NEVER BREAK NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO TO THEM. IF YOU THINK MECHANICAL WATCHES ARE FRAGILE LITTLE THINGS THEN YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT. THIS FAQ SHOULD SOLVE ALL OF THE IDIOTIC QUESTIONS ENTERING YOUR MIND.
Q: WHAT HAPPENS IF I DROP MY STUPID ASS MECHANICAL TIMEPIECE? WILL IT BREAK?
A: YOU MIGHT DING THE CASE OR SOMETHING BUT IT'S FINE, STOP WORRYING ABOUT STUPID SHIT LIKE THIS. VIDEO PROOF
Q: IF I DROP MY WATCH INTO BOILING WATER AND THEN THROW IT IN A CUP OF ICE WATER WILL MY WATCH EXPLODE/KILL ME?
A: NO. WHY THE FUCK WOULD THAT HAPPEN. 100C WONT HURT A PIECE OF METAL YOU STUPID IDIOT. VIDEO PROOF
Q: WHEN MY WATCH SLIDES OFF MY WRIST AND FALLS INTO A 550 DEGREE OVEN FOR 30 MINUTES WILL THE MOVEMENT STOP WORKING?
A: NO. STOP ASKING STUPID ASS QUESTIONS. VIDEO PROOF
Q: IF THE CRYSTAL POPS OFF MY WATCH CAN I PUT IT BACK ON WITH A HAMMER?
A: YOU CAN TRY, BUT THE ANSWER IS PROBABLY NO. VIDEO PROOF
Q: IF I DROP MY WATCH IN BATTER AND THEN DEEP FRY IT, WILL MY WATCH STOP WORKING PROPERLY?
A: NO. JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER THINGS YOU ASKED, THE ANSWER IS FUCKING NO. WHY WOULD A WATCH BREAK JUST BECAUSE IT FALLS IN SOME HOT OIL AND COOKS FOR A LITTLE BIT. IT IS MADE OUT OF FUCKING METAL. VIDEO PROOF
Q: IF I RUN OVER MY WATCH WITH A 2003 SUBARU FORESTER WILL MY WATCH BREAK?
A: NO. THE CLASP MIGHT BEND OR THE BRACELET MIGHT GET A LITTLE WONKY BUT THE WATCH IS GONNA BE FINE OVERALL. VIDEO PROOF
THE WINDOWS COPY TOOL SUCKS
THE WINDOWS COPY TOOL IS A PIECE OF SHIT. I TRIED TO COPY ~2TB OF FILES ON AN INTERNAL DRIVE TO AN EXTERNAL DRIVE. WINDOWS COPY TOOL SAYS THAT WILL TAKE 24 HOURS. IN REALITY IT IS MUCH LONGER. WHY IS THIS? LETS FIND OUT. BECAUSE THE TOOL SAID IT WOULD TAKE 24 HOURS, I LEFT FOR 16 HOURS. WHEN I WENT BACK GUESS WHAT HAPPENED. 11% OF MY FILES WERE COPIED AND I HAD A POP-UP WAITING FOR ME. THE POP-UP SAID THAT A FILE CANNOT BE COPIED BECAUSE IT IS A VIRUS. IT WAS NOT A VIRUS IT WAS A BITCOIN MINING EXE FILE. WHATEVER I HIT SKIP AND I LEFT AGAIN, KNOWING I WASTED 10+ HOURS OF MY TIME WAITING FOR THESE FILES TO TRANSFER. I SLEPT AND THE NEXT DAY I GO TO CHECK ON THE PROGRESS. "WHAT ELSE COULD GO WRONG?" I NIAVELY THOUGHT TO MYSELF. WELL GUESS WHAT, WINDOWS IS A PIECE OF SHIT AND DECIDED TO RESTART AFTER INSTALLING WINDOWS UPDATES. IT HAS BEEN OVER 48 HOURS AND ALMOST NONE OF MY FILES HAVE BEEN BACKED UP. NOT TO MENTION THAT WINDOWS TAKES LONGER TO COPY FILES THAN LINUX DOES. MR. MICROSOFT HIMSELF NEEDS TO GET A FUCKING LIFE AND LEARN THAT USER INPUT DOES NOT NEED TO HALT PROGRAMS. WHY DOESN'T THE COPY TOOL REALIZE 'HEY MAYBE THIS FILE IS A VIRUS, I WILL ASK THE USER, BUT WHILE WAITING FOR INPUT I WILL CONTINUE TO COPY THE REST OF THE FILES THAT THE USER ASKED ME TO FUCKING COPY'. FUCK YOU SHIT-TIER DEVELOPER THAT CREATED THE COPY TOOL, YOU SUCK!!!
GPU MINED COINS ARE JUST AS CENTRALIZED AS ASIC MINED COINS.
THERE ARE TWO MAJOR GPU MANUFACTURERS, NVIDIA AND AMD. THERE WAS A MASSIVE RADEON GPU SHORTAGE IN 2013 BECAUSE OF CRYPTOCURRENCY HYPE, AND THERE IS ANOTHER BIG SHORTAGE OF NVIDIA CARDS NOW IN 2021 FOR THE SAME REASON. THE ADVANTAGES AGAINST ASIC MINING WERE SUPPOSED TO BE:
1) GPUS ARE CONSUMER HARDWARE AND SHOULD BE EASIER TO OBTAIN THAN AN ASIC. THIS ALLOWS 'NORMAL PEOPLE' TO MINE CRYPTOCURRENCY WOULD SHOULD BE MORE EQUITABLE AND LEAD TO A MORE DECENTRALIZED COIN
2) ASIC HARDWARE IS MADE BY FEW COMPANIES, THIS LEADS TO CENTRALIZATION BECAUSE YOU MUST PURCHASE MINING HARDWARE FROM FEW PLACES
THE CURRENT STATE OF THE MARKET PROVES THAT BOTH OF THESE STATEMENTS ARE FALSE! IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR A REGULAR PERSON TO BUY A NEW NVIDIA GPU, THERE ARE ONLY TWO GPU MANUFACTURERS, AND THERE ARE MORE ASIC MANUFACTURERS. ASICS ARE BECOMING MORE DECENTRALIZED THAN CONSUMER HARDWARE. THIS IS A PROBLEM.
THE BEST WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM IS TO MAKE A MINING ALGORITHM THAT PERFORMS AS WELL ON CPU, GPU, AND ASIC. ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE TO SWITCH TO A NEW MINING METHOD SIMILAR TO CHIA USING HARD DRIVES, RAM, OR OTHER MORE UBIQUITIOUS HARDWARE.

SOULLESS' PROPOSAL TO LOWER THE BURN RATE FOR RAVENCOIN KAWKAW KAWKAW
RAVENCOIN SHOULD LOWER ITS BURN RATE TO 1. WHY? BECAUSE IT JUST MAKES SENSE. IF SOMEONE WANTED TO MAKE 1 BAZILLION ASSETS AT 5 RVN PER ASSET THAT EQUALS 5 BAZILLION BURNED RVN, THAT IS MORE RVN THAN CURRENT EXISTS AND WILL EVER EXIST. I PROPOSE WE CHANGE RAVENCOIN TO VINCENTCOIN AND LOWER THE BURN RATE TO 1. IN DOING SO WE WILL ALLOW MANY MORE ASSETS TO BE CREATED. IF THE CURRENT BURN RATE IS 500 AND WE LOWER IT TO 1 THAT MEANS WE CAN DO 500 TIMES MORE ASSETS THAN IF WE DONT LOWER THE BURN RATE TO 1. WE CAN ALSO LOWER SUBASSET COST TO .1 AND UNIQUE ASSET COST TO .001 RVN. BY DOING THIS WE WILL INCREASE THE UTILITY OF THE COIN AND EVERYONE WILL BE ABLE TO CHEAPLY CREATE ASSETS WITHOUT OVERBURNING THE CURRENT RVN SUPPLY.
I PROPOSE A PLAN. I CALL THE PLAN: OPERATION LOWER THE FUCKING BURN RATE. I HAVE LOOKED AT THE GITHUB AND FOUND THE VARIABLES I NEED TO CHANGE BUT I AM TOO LAZY TO DO IT UNLESS I RECEIVE FUNDING. PHASE 1: I AM REQUESTING FUNDING OF 2000 RVN IN EXCHANGE FOR CHANGING THE VARIABLES THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED. PHASE 1.5: SPREAD THE FUCKING GOOD WORD. WE NEED PEOPLE TO WANT TO ADOPT THE LOWER BURN RATE VERSION OF THE COIN (VINCENTCOIN). BY SPREADING THE WORD WE CAN CREATE A HOSTILE TAKE OVER OF THE NETWORK AND LOWER THE BURN RATE TO 1. PHASE 2: ACTUALLY TAKE OVER THE NETWORK. IN PHASE 2 WE WILL RUN THE STUPID CODE WITH THE MODIFIED VARIABLES. I THINK THIS WILL DO SOMETHING IF ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE CONSENSUS. PHASE 3: WE WON. THATS IT. IT WILL BE OVER AT THIS POINT BUT IT STILL HAS A PHASE NAME.
IF YOU BELIEVE IN ME, AND VINCENT, PLEASE DONATE RVN TO THIS ADDRESS: RCghrkNAZWYoYZY3ZeSaRePYdDYcKXVWq9
SOULLESS' PROPOSAL TO CHANGE THE FUCKING LOGO FROM A PARROT TO A RAVEN
I HAVE ALREADY CREATED THE NEW LOGO WE JUST NEED PEOPLE TO ADOPT IT. FEEL FREE TO USE THIS LOGO WHEREVER RAVENCOIN SHOULD BE REPRESENTED. IT RELEASED UNDER THE MIT LICENSE, IF THATS EVEN POSSIBLE FOR AN IMAGE. YOU PROBABLY CANT SEE THE LOGO WITH THIS BACKGROUND BUT IT IS BELOW THIS TEXT. RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE THE LOGO AND SPREAD THE WORD OF THE BIRD.
SOULLESS' PROPOSAL TO REFUND EVERYONE ON RAVENCOIN WITH DONATIONS SENT TO A DONATION ADDRESS
I PROPOSE EVERYONE DONATE TO MY ADDRESS LISTED AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PROPOSAL. ANY DONATIONS SENT TO THIS ADDRESS WILL BE REFUNDED TO ANYONE THAT HAS BURNED RVN IN THE CREATION OF ASSETS. THE REFUNDING OF RVN WILL BE SENT OUT RANDOMLY BY PEOPLE NOT RANDOMLY CHOSEN BY A RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR THAT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK PROPERLY. THIS PROPOSAL WILL WORK ON MAINNET RAVENCOIN WITHOUT A CONSENSUS DEBATE AND WILL IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE COIN, BY REFUNDING ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE SPENT RAVENCOIN TO MINT ASSETS. IF YOU WANT TO SUPPORT THIS PLEASE SEND YOUR RAVENCOIN TO THIS ADDRESS: RCEKvNh7KzhnTi6PGopZnX79Bndmt4BPnM
