Recently I use google docs for teamwork. However, because the original file is made of Microsoft Office Word, there are several issues that some information/feature lost when I save the file with google docs.
The number of the title will not display in google doc.
Original in wordDisplayed in Google doc
2. The personal format of text will not take effect in google docs.
I created a format “dasda”
open in Google Docs, my personal format is removed/lost.
3. The color and format of table in google doc is different in Microsoft Word
Table in wordThe table in google doc
4, the Equation from MathType is not correct but still readable and can be normal again in Microsoft Word. You will lose all the numbers of equations.
Recently, I bought the EA play membership and have tried a few games. Here I will give some comments of the game. Here I just give the comments.
EA play
Battlefieldseries. Battlefield 1 and 5 has the best picture quality and the campaigns are also good. The battle with tanks and planes are quite cool. Aside from these two, the picture qualities of the other seires are just soso because of the early release (>5 years ago). Battlefield hardline is not recommed, bored in play. Battlefield Bad company 2, amazing.
Plants vs. Zombies. Good games to relax. The classic 2D one does not have a high resolution setting not suitable for 4k monitor. The 3D ones (Garden warfare, GW2 and Battle for Neighborville) are simillar with good picture quality and cute charaters. The Neighborville has more characters and the nut is the best one to me, funny to play.
Sea of Solitude. The sunny scence is beautiful but the black one is not comfortable to me. The game is not recommended because of the dark style. Aslo like the name of the game, you will fell bad for the story (quarrel between parents, campus bullying) during playing the game. Don’t play this in the evening.
Titanfall2. Excellent game, best mecha game. Nice story and the way to play. The only drawback is the unstable server of EA so that you are not sure wethere you can play the online game or not.
Mass effect. Not finished yet, but the story is cool from others’ review. The picture quality of 1 is so so and not attractive to me. 2 and 3 are better and look relative good.
Crysis remastered. Have not played yet. The picture quality is not as cool as I expected.
Need for speed. A car game. Even though the new ones have better picture quality but my favourite one of this series is “need for Speed Most Wanted (2005)” which is not avaible. Need for Speed™ Hot Pursuit Remastered is similar to Most Wanted (2005), good to play, the the access to free roam is enabled by pressing “L ctrl” in the career page.
Star War: Jedi: Fallen Order has about 20 hours to finish the main mission. It is funning to play as a Jedi. The game has a lot elements similar to Titan Fall 2 and Assassin’s Creed that Jedi is able to run on the wall and climb on the wall.
Xbox Game Pass
Halo Infinite. It takes about 10 hours to finish. Don’t have too much surprise. Some scenes are repeated again and again. The tank Scorpion is quite cool to play.
My hardware is Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 16 82JQ001PGE. AMD 5800H, 32 GB Ram, an external monitor, 4k resolution.
There are two shortcomings of the Sony SRS-XB12. First, it can not be held on or stay asleep without connection to any device. It will automatically shut down. So you need to turn it on every time when u use it. If you have two of them and make them as a pair, then you need to turn on each of them. The most dissatisfying stuff is that if you have two of them as a pair and you want to connect them with another device, then you will have trouble. You need to operate many times, press the “power button” and the “add button” to successfully connect them to another device. All in a word, it is not recommended to buy this model.
It takes sveral mins to load the project on windows 11 which only takes 1 second on windows 10. The hardware is the same, no idea what happened. I do not recommend upgrading to windows11.
In order to have a more decent program editor for windows, I try to use vs code to write the m file for Matlab, however, I cannot run it in vs code. Then I start to search for a way to run Matlab script in vs code. Because of the updates of the vs code and related plugins, it takes me about one hour to figure out how to do this. I have read a Chinese tutorial, which is helpful but not enough. Here, I try to list the key steps for the configuration in vs code.
First, install plugins: Code runner (publisher:”Jun Han”), Matlab (publisher:”Xavier Hahn”), Matlab-formatter (publisher:”AffenWiesel”). Just choose the most popular one. Here, matlab-formatter is not necessary.
Second, modify the settings.json of vs code. the file of the setting.json is located in “C:\Users\Rocket\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json” if you install the vs code in the default directory. The modification parts are highlighted below. You may install Matlab in other folders that you need to change the related path as well.
The third step, save the JSON files and try to run the Matlab file in vs code.
To use matlab-formatter, you need to right-click the open m file and choose the command ” format document”.
the running window is as follows:
The drawback of this method is that the running result will show up in a new window rather than in the terminal of vs code. And also be careful of the name of the running script, the program (Matlab ) may run the script with the same name but in a different folder.
after using this several times, it is not convenient. it is better to editor the script with vs code but run the script in Matlab GUI, then no need to close the pop-up windows. The MathWorks company should do something, even the live script is developed, but not convenient to use.
Recently buy the Ender5 pro, a very cheap version, and only 299 euros from 3Djake.at. The frame of the 3D printer is very solid, no complaints.
Do a simple modification of the 3D printer and update the printer with a BLTouch sensor and use a Raspberry Pi (with Octoprinter) to control it.
Because the motherboard is V4.2.2 which is special and it costs some time to figure out how to connect the BLtouch with the 3D printer. We change the firmware with Marlin. Before this mode, I also install the BLtouch with CR-10S which is simpler. And be careful of the compatibility between the Marlin Version and the build environment. For the Ender 5 pro, you need to use PlatformIO. I suggest using Microsoft visual studio code with the Marlin plugin (quite easy to modify).
The print bed is very nice, easy to clean, and also easy to remove the printed parts. however, because of the open-frame design, sometimes the 3D printer will have trouble reaching a high temperature, especially for the bed. One suggestion is not to turn the side cooling fan on if the temperature of the printing head is higher than 250 degrees.
The bearings for the z-axis threaded rod are low quality which generates a lot of high-frequency noise. By lubricate with some oil, the noise is released. a similar problem can be found in https://forums.creality3dofficial.com/community/ender-55pro/ender-5-pro-noisy-bearings/.
One bad thing for this printer is once there is an error from the printer, for example when the bed loses too much heat, the printer will shut down and generate an extremely loud warning sound also the connection between the Octoprinter is cut off. A full restart is required to reboot the 3D printer meanwhile the raspberry Pi needs disconnecting from the 3D printer. After the 3D printer works again, then plug the raspberry Pi into the 3D printer and reconnect the printer with the Octoprinter. A little bit sad about this design and don’t want to change it at this moment by myself. with the older CR-10s, when there is an error, the printer will restart by itself and just need to reconnect the Octoprinter with the 3D printer in the browser by clicking a button.
For the printing head, we have tried both 0.4 mm and 0.2 mm nozzles. Quality is fine. 0.1 mm nozzle is not support.
