Hi everybody, I'm having a bit of trouble now as I need a dataset for a machine learning project using image classification and CNNs and I need a dataset that's over a 100GB in size and my computer only has a capacity of 56GB without drivers or basic functions so I was wondering if I could use an external hard drive to fix my issues?

So, I've an exam on Atoms, it's history and stuff tomorrow. I did read this chapter before, but don't remember most of it. I understand the concepts but there are things to memorize, how do I do it? (I need to finish this by tonight and at most I can stay awake is 2.30 am. It's 7.22 pm rn.)

You know, there's certain things that when you look at them they look so simple yet, we just don't want to accept the simple things. For example, when I see someone doing something very basic in a field I've worked on before, in my head, I'm like, omg, that's so cool and I see me in him and it's almost like a very endearing feeling and if they come up to me, it makes me so happy. But at the same time whenever I'm doing something new and I have to start small with something more basic, I feel embarrassed to tell anyone cause, in my mind, I'm like oh, but no one's going to think it's cool, this is not good at all. But I know that's not true, they probably feel the same thing as I do whenever I meet someone like that. Another example is doing things, right. A few months ago, I saw like these people like @Chinnu B , @Crown Mare , they were posting like book reviews and I was like, hey, they're so cool, they're so great, I don't even read books, they're totally on a different level. But that's just simply not true, at some point in the past, they were probably the same as me, they also had a day where they picked up their first book, maybe it was before me, maybe they read fast but at some point, they were in the same stage as me and you, and infact I still don't read 1 book a week, I take 1 book, I don't even try to read like 1 chapter a day, if I'm feeling good, I real multiple chapters if I'm not feeling good, I just read 1 paragraph and that's it, some days, when I'm busier, I don't even read. So, does that make me a really good reader like them? Probably not, so what, if I read even 1 book in like say not even a month, like 3 months, that's 4 books an year, in 3 years, I'll know about a whole dozen of books and then I can call myself a reader and like the first example, if I were to tell a good reader that, oh, I read like half book, they probably couldn't care less about comparing my not even 1 book level to them, they'll be like, oh, yeah, that's great and again, we know these stuff yet we just don't accept them.

Some days I’m all fired up, ready to crush my goals, and other days…... not so much. I’m starting to realize that motivation isn’t always going to show up so maybe it’s more about building a habit? Like, even on the worst days just doing something to keep the momentum going. What do you guys do when you’re totally unmotivated? Any tricks for pushing through, or do you just force it and hope for the best? Could definitely use some ideas to make this whole staying-on-track thing a bit easier!

Hi everyone, since RSI applications are now open I want to wish everybody the best of luck and if you felt comfortable to anyone who has submitted or been accepted to RSI share some tips with me as I'm applying next year. Have an amazing day. - Eve Murphy :)
