python code was much easier than scratch
what duracell battery is that
My only option is the glue gun, but im worrying if its gonna work
Thank you so much for the demo. Can you share to me how can I coding the code like your Demo, please?
Help! I have 4 hubs out of 8 that when I plug usb in and select connect there are NO LITTLE THREE DOTS to choose to get to reset the hub. They are fully charged. It keeps telling me it needs updated but then errors out. Nothing I am doing is working. Thanks if you have any advice at all....
Hard
I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 ////////////
Please which app are you guys using to program the ev3
Lego mindstorm
Ewwwww
thanks for helping me ace my projects!
Trash
what are the dimensions of the bearnings?
best start to any book ever written
thank you
if you have 4 motors 2 on each wheel how can you program them?
I know I am late to the EV3 game but I just picked up a kit at Goodwill. I am looking for the answer as to which programming environment should I use. My kid has already done some with Classroom and Scratch but not MakeCode.
In Chrome if your media controls do not work -- none of them, you need to go to chrome flags. I know l y n x s will not work in comments so I will do my best to guide you because this absolutely worked for me: Type chrome (colon, forward slash, forward slash) flags in the address bar and press Enter. Then, search for Media Control. The flag you are looking for is called "Global media controls control Cast start(forward slash) stop". Use the drop-down menu next to it to select Enabled. I also enabled "Web App System Media Controls on Windows" and "Media Remoting without videos in fullscreen mode" because I need to pause videos. omg when they are 75 minutes long gurl, my head needs to pause. I hope this helps. You're welcome.
Yay! Thanks for the tutorial!
You bet!
do you have building instructions for a robot build that allows picking up an object , moving, and placing down. --
Yes, but not with EV3. I do with the new SPIKE Prime and Robot Inventor Kits
Can I request the file of this program and try it for the project sir.. this is a big help
Actually I did the second option without knowing that I needed to charge the battery first so the hub is not responding to anything. Neither it is switching off nor it is updating. I'm now so worried what should I do?
You saved me some heartache with this, thank you! I was about to cut them down with my track saw 😂
Glad I could help!
What is the app name
This is the older software from LabView. Not sure if still around anymore or not.
It is the Labview software that EV3 used to run on. Not sure if still available on the internet somewhere or not.
@@coffeechug There is a download link on the lego website but make sure to install the retired version not education and you have the one you used
After this is grouped.. and I export as STL in my slicer program.. it doesnt print the "cutout" layer.. it has the base and shorter layer if you know what I mean.. not the 15mm "cutout" layer.
Can you send me the link of this program?
Sorry, What is the full name of this programming environment?
lego mindstorms ev3?

Thank you so much!
Does this only work with a solid image or can it already have a hole in it?
Hi! When connecting the hub, the update is requested. It shows the same error as yours. I installed a fully charged battery, but the error persists. I think your second option only worked because you had already updated the HUB. Here the software doesn't even recognize the HUB without the update.
