In literature, what does "a character who creates conflict just to move the plot" called?
"Drama queen" or villain seems to vague.
>>318561
isn't that like the basic purpose of an "antagonist"? like they can do more, but I think you have to do that to be called an antagonist
>>318561
Shitty writing
>>318561
A plot device.
How do I find the unknown mass of an object using a vertical spring system with multiple springs?
Okay, first: do you know the spring constant of every spring?
Hint: at each point where the springs connect the nett force should be 0.
>>318530
No but i have other wieghts with labeled masses

Hey, my acer Aspire V won't start. When I press the power button, the fan spins for a few seconds and the HDD clicks and then it all stops and it goes silent. Only one blue light remains lit. It was working perfectly until now, and suddenly it turned off and the problem started. I have tried holding the power button down for a few minutes and trying to start it, I have cleaned the inside and tried again, and it still doesn't start. I'm out of ideas.
I need help please.
>>317951
Does it have a beeper?
>>317955
Nope
>>317951
Remove the HDD, DVD Drive, & RAM
Plug in the power lead
Turn on
What happens?
Reccomend me some really edgy anime and manga.Only the edgiest will do.
I've already read Berserk and seen Akame Ga Kill so skip over those.
Kiba no Tabishounin: The Arms Peddler and Green Blood are pretty grim. Now and Then, Here and There is depressing.

working magnet for Jubei Chan 1st season raws? I was only able to find a korean version while everything else was either buried in spyware of had no seeds on it
i think its on bakabt but they went private and my ratio is shit right now, i cant find anything on nyaa either
if no working magnets for raws exist am i stuck with having to either rip the dvd or download from streaming sites and remove the watermark?
You can still use BakaBT even if your ratio is shit as long as your account is still active. It's mostly BakaBT's fault for making their site hard to maintain ratio on.
>>317821
Also, does it have to be raws? Why?
>>317821
i cant download because my account is in warning, i downloaded crest of the stars which is banned there, so im wondering if i can just find a way to use a different tracker and download the original torrent file from BBT
and i just prefer raws compared to subs, or if its subbed at least its softsubbed so i can turn the subs off
Hey can someone turn these images into transparent .pngs. Don't keep any of the background or text. Thanks

I've been having an issue with explorer.exe on my computer for awhile now where opening files, viewing pictures/music/video files causes it to load a little longer than normal, in particular with the thumbnails and the memory usage goes up and never goes down; at most I've seen it go up to 40,000.
I've used ShellExView to disable certain shell extensions, which only solved one issue (explorer not responding and restarting a lot), but the memory usage of explorer.exe still goes up and the occasional dllhost.exe or two pops up and never leaves (at most only 2 show up and they never use much memory).
I've checked for viruses/rootkits/etc. extensively with malwarebytes and the like, and there are no signs of any of those on my computer. dllhost and explorer aren't fakes or anything, but the usage goes up and rarely goes down the more I view my files (the memory usage does go down after awhile, but it's not by much).
I've tried to rebuild and fix the windows media player library, which actually fixes the issue for awhile but it comes back again like it never happened.
I'm thinking its something to do with thumbnails and video files, so I tried this hotfix, but it didn't really help: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/is-there-a-hot-fix-to-correct-corrupted-media/ffe1e4a2-6d35-4a5a-83b6-b2b42e39ef63
I'm thinking it might be a dllhost memory leak, but I'm not sure if this solution would fix it: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/windows-7-dllhostexe-memory-leak/7147cdab-a29b-4277-9a33-04199095ca01
What do I do? I'm on Windows 7 btw.
explorer takes some time to create each video thumb if its not already in cache, and honestly 40mb isnt even that much for loading a few seconds of video onto ram, launch the splitter and decoder and get a frame out of it. the value should go down after it has generated all the thumbnails though. clearing the icon/thumbnail cache everytime will only make this worse
with this in mind, i would probably uninstall any codec pack currently in use and install an updated version of another one (cccp, klite, etc.) and see if the issue remains. (make sure to register the installed codec thumbnail handler for explorer to use, there should be an option in the installer/config [ffdshow, lav, ...])

What would be a codec pack exactly? This is the first I've heard of this.
>>318031
a bunch of video format decoders and a couple of stream splitters that allows you to play modern video containers/formats (you need at least a splitter for mkv, and im not even sure if win7 supports mp4 h264 out of the box)
just pick one from these
>http://www.cccp-project.net/
>https://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
as for just music files, if they make explorer sluggish then you might want to defragment you hdd, since loading the tags/albumart is slow

aren't you a bit too young to drink beer?
Are there any comedy or drama writers here?
Punch up means going through what's already written and adding moments to the script that make it better.
I'm currently writing a story and would appreciate it if some people could help me make it more appealing!!
Here's the Google Doc link and comments are enabled but editing is not:

I'd appreciate it if you guys could leave a comment telling me where I can add some things or just reply in this thread and that would be good too! Thanks in advance ^_^
Is this a joke?
>>319957
No, I didn't know where else to go for writing help and i got reviews saying that the story needed more to it
>>319960
Assuming you're actually the real author and this isn't some elaborate troll.
You need to learn how to actually write a fanfiction. This is arguably not fanfiction as much as it is just your own jumbled story with I assume Witchers thrown into it. I don't know, nothing about that has actually happened besides mentioning it in the first paragraph.
You have the vocabulary of a twelve year old, and the intelligence to go with it. You have no consideration for what you're writing, you just want to write about your OC being this super good looking, smart but young, witch. The story doesn't and really can't be taking place in the year you have it in. Yet it still does and you take that fact with no care. You have a little girl who just time traveled backwards and now she's saying "dude" and "yo".
I'm sure the actual plot of the story is arguable as well, but I've never played a Witcher game so I'm not the one to do it. Though, last I checked, those games didn't take place close to America or in the year 1776-1800s.
Can someone colour this photo please... both in red Dark Phoenix unfiroms. Although, White Phoenix is okay too.

I need ALL of your anime GIF anons, everything you have, just post it, absolutely everything; I'll thank you rice-eating-board-anonymous-farmers from the bottom of my kokoro

I think this is the only thing I have that comes close, but technically it's a manga gif.
I'm looking for anime, games or comic books that have beautiful female characters, preferably leads and also has a unique, stylized, "artsy" aesthetic to it.
Best examples I could give for this would be Lupin III: Woman Called Fujiko Mine and Sadness of Belladonna.
