So I'm starting to notice that more and more bots are 2wd vertial spinners with wedge in the front. I guess you can counter a horizontal spinner with a wedge because it can deflect it. But that doesn't work with vertical spinners.
I'm an old school fan from the original series and the original robot wars, etc. I've always been a fan of big KE weapons, full body spinners like blendo or ziggo, bar spinners like hazard, hammers like SoW. Drums and discs, you name it. I've built bots for non-tv competitions and have always loved the spinner fights.
But I've been seeing a lot of hate on here for spinners. People saying there are too many, or they are boring, or fights that end really quickly are not fun... this is just so backwards to me. A spinner that destroys the other bot in 20 seconds is my favorite. I remember in the past everyone just hated wedges and rammers because they were boring, now it seems everyone wants more wedges and such.
Commercial playground spinners or merry-go-rounds allows kids to twirl the day away-- fast or slow, one way and then the next. Spinning teaches kids about how their bodies react to motion -- spinning can be soothing one moment and thrilling the next, and children can play where the fun of the spin enters the realm of risk. Like any playground feature, children want to experience risk, and with spinning, they can safely learn what level of risk feels comfortable.
Freestanding spinners provide a fun way for kids to develop better depth perception, balance and cause-and-effect. The spinning motion stimulates kids' vestibular sense, which is the sense that maintains balance while the body is in motion.
Landscape Structures' commercial spinners come in all forms -- individual or collective, sitting or standing, enclosed or open. Explore the many options of spin features below and find the one that is just right for your playground design.
Hi guys, does anyone know of a trick (maybe some CSS or plugin) which we can use to automatically add loading spinners across our Bubble app and on buttons any time a workflow takes more than a few seconds to load?
Sorry to hijack this thread, but is there a way to hide the arrows on SOME numeric entry field components and not on others?
From what little I know about CSS, if I create a custom them so that these are hidden and use that theme for my project, then ALL of the spinner buttons on all the numeric entry fields in the project will be hidden. Am I wrong about that?
If not, how could some be shown and specific ones have the spinners hidden?
To let people know these elements were downloading, we added a spinner that showed up as each Web View was retrieved from our server. Since we used several Web Views, people could encounter these spinners in a few parts of the app and when they did we started to get feedback like this:
Skeleton screens are another way to focus on progress instead of wait times. We used this technique in several places on Polar to effectively eliminate our spinners. A skeleton screen is essentially a blank version of a page into which information is gradually loaded. This creates the sense that things are happening immediately as information is incrementally displayed on the screen.
Regarding 2), Struggling to reproduce the jitters in an isolated page, so will take down the prod dashboard on a quiet day and test the dcc or dbc spinners instead. Will reply again to confirm in a few days!
In many places where fidget spinners are sold, they're touted as miracle toys that help people focus as well as aid people dealing with post-traumatic stress and other disorders, but one expert says those claims aren't backed up by science. And some teachers have complained that the toys are causing disturbances in the classroom.
Bead spinners generally come with two parts: a base, and a bowl. The bowl will have a spindle at the top and a hole in the bottom. The base will have a shaft of some type that is inserted into the hole in the base of the bowl.
Over the last year I have been collecting and testing bead spinners from several different brands and makers so I could compare them, and also because they are fascinating little tools and I have hoarder tendencies.
Purpose of review: In the span of a few months, fidget spinners have caught the eyes of millions of children, parents, educators and paediatricians. Fidget spinners, hand-held toys designed to spin freely in your grasp, have become a source of entertainment for consumers of all ages. Despite a lack of scientific evidence, toy marketers have advertised the benefits of fidget spinners for children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and other disorders (e.g. autism, anxiety, sensory issues). Parents are incentivized by these purported benefits to purchase fidget spinners to improve their child's concentration and decrease stress.
Recent findings: While fidget spinners are a new phenomenon, existing therapy toys (e.g. sensory putty) have been used by occupational therapists for similar reasons, with comparably little research supporting these claims. The purpose of this review is to explore literature regarding sensory toys and examine educator/professional-reported concerns and medical adverse effects of using fidget spinners.
Summary: Due to a recent surge in popularity, fidget spinners and other self-regulatory occupational therapy toys have yet to be subjected to rigorous scientific research. Thus, their alleged benefits remain scientifically unfounded. Paediatricians should be aware of potential choking hazards with this new fad, and inform parents that peer-reviewed studies do not support the beneficial claims.
Fidget spinners have a button in the middle and paddles surrounding it that can be spun. The argument is that spinners provide a background sensory activity for people prone to fidgeting, which improves their ability to concentrate and focus on important tasks. Fidget spinners aren't necessarily a prescribed item, but you'll see that people wind up using these things on their own, whether it's doodling, tearing up paper, or the like. If people are going to fidget, they're most likely going to do it whether or not they have a fidget spinner in hand.
Like the original Bootstrap spinners, these can also be used withbuttons. To use this component out-of-the-box it is recommended youchange the element type to span by configuring the as property whenusing spinners inside buttons.
Any ideas as to why this would happen? To add to how strange this is, the forms with functional spinners were functioning BEFORE I re-installed the spinner plugin, which I had deactivated and deleted back in October 2021.
