Maddy and I have a great idea for a fan Horror game but we don't know how to make a good jumpscare for a horror game! Enlighten us in how a jumpscare works well to make this fan game the best it can be!
I am working on a game and would like to include a few jump scares. So here is a rather simple question — What makes a good jump scare and when and how should they happen?
If Python does not have a ternary conditional operator, is it possible to simulate one using other language constructs? How do I Uninstall Windows 10 or Windows 10 preview? I joined in the  and I don't like it. However, this question may also be relevant to those who install the full version of Windows 10.  How can I downgrade back to Windows 8/7 from Windows 10 or Windows 10 preview? Where can I find good literature for beginners? I am trying to find some database tutorials,books and similar, since I have started this course in college, and received some material, but it is really hard to manage through all the info on the net. I searched through the questions on the site but didn't find any. Thankfull for all your input. Do compound subjects like "everyone ... and everyone..." take singular or plural verb agreement? Here are the examples of compound subjects:      Everything on the bed and everything in the closet was organised   in under an hour.   Everybody who witnessed the shooting and everybody   in the room were interviewed.   Anyone on the soccer team and   anybody on the basketball team was eligible for the scholarship.   Should I also use was instead of were in the second example? Or the first and the third examples are incorrect that I should use were instead of was. How can I format my active hard drive to NTFS? I'm trying to install Windows 7 with a 4GB flash drive, but my error that comes up is that my hard drive I'm trying to install on is in ext4. I need to format it to read NTFS. I can't seem to find any topics on how to format an active hard drive. I found a topic that explains how to move Ubuntu to a new drive, but it's a bit confusing to me. Why are most of the main characters White/English in Game Of Thrones? Okay, I was thinking about the series of Game of Thrones and all the battles and stuff, and I thought why aren't there any characters beside White/English characters that have main/important roles? Can you name any that are alive that are anything else beside White/English?   This is a short list of some of the main characters (all White/English):   Cersei - Queen and important political Lannister. Jaime - Guy who is father to the late king and is King slayer. Tyrion - Short guy in politics who is currently on the run(that's what the wikia told me). Daenerys - Queen who is freeing people and dragon owner.   And the list goes on and on, why aren't there any characters other than Caucasian characters that are in the series?  I've read a lot of articles on the internet about this after Googling around, and none of the articles I read had any scientific evidence or research - it was just conjecture.  So, are there any actors/characters from racially diverse backgrounds? I'm hoping for canon evidence (pictures, links, quotes) from the book and/or TV show. In the case of actors, can you also list their role?    This is not intended as a racist question. I just want to know why, since the story takes place over a large area, there doesn't seem to be any diversity. What's the difference between &lt;b&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;, &lt;i&gt; and &lt;em&gt; in HTML/XHTML? When should you use each? Connectedness of the Hausdorff distance. Does anyone know a proof of connectedness of the Hausdorff distance?  I mean a proof of the following:  Theorem  If $(X, \rho )$ is a connected metric space, then $(F(X), d_h )$ is also connected.  Remark:  $F(X) = \{ A \subseteq X | A \text{ is nonempty, closed and bounded } \} $, and $d_h$ stands for the Hausdorff distance. What is the smallest convex set includes all smooth unit curves? I try to understand: is there a smallest in area convex set that every smooth curve with length 1 can be placed inside it by translation and rotation?  I only have a upper bound $S \leq \frac14+\frac{\pi}{16}$ because of convex hull of two circles radius $\frac14$ and simple lower bound $S\geq\frac1{4\pi}$.  Does this set exist and what is its length? I'm well aware of the combinatorial variant of the proof, i.e. noting that each formula is a different representation for the number of subsets of a set of $n$ elements. I'm curious if there's a series of algebraic manipulations that can lead from $\sum\limits_{i=0}^n \binom{n}{i}$ to $2^n$. Executing a certain action for all elements in an Enumerable Frobenius Inequality Rank I was looking for an answer for this problem in terms of matrices, but I really don't know how to prove this result. The proposition says that:  Let $A\in M_{m\times k}(\mathbb{C})$, $B\in M_{k\times p}(\mathbb{C})$ and $C\in M_{p\times n}(\mathbb{C})$, then $\textrm{rank}(AB)+\textrm{rank}(BC)\leq \textrm{rank}(B)+\textrm{rank}(ABC)$ Approximating $\arctan x$ for large $|x|$ I would like to know if there is reasonably fast converging method for computing large arguments of arctan.  Until now I've came across Taylor series that converges only on interval $(-1,1)$ and for increasing $|x|$ the rate decreases. Also I've found about continued fractions for arctan, which seems to converge more rapidly and can be used for any real number, but again with increasing $|x|$ I need to perform way too much iterations until I get at least 3 digits precision.  I'm therefore looking for a method that would allow me to compute arctan for large arguments with good precision and in reasonable amount of iterations. Allow moderators to see delete/undelete activity on users' profiles We get auto flags for 'possible vandalism' related to deletes, and these can be helpful at times in finding 'rage quit' users, or other potential problems.  But often, I would like to know if there is a prior pattern with the user doing this. While we can see posts of theirs which have been flagged, and perhaps find previous auto flags this way, it would be nice to see an overall view of their self-deletions and undeletions; mostly just to identify patterns.  Such a feature would be nice if it was activity centered, rather than post-centered. That is; each delete/undelete action should be shown. So we could easily see, for example, if someone went back-and-forth on a single post.  The "activity" tab in the profile would be a logical place to show these events.  I think this would be best to be limited to instant self-deletions, not deletion votes. How to set textbox value in jQuery? What are the advantages of a custom ROM over rooted stock? I am trying to achieve something like this:     This image is linked from .  also provides a solution and seems simpler. Both answers deal with the algorithmicx package however. I am interested in the solution for the algorithm2e package.   I read the documentation of the algorithm2e package but didn't find an answer.   How can I achieve the colored effect?  EDIT:  Here is sample code to create a minimum working example.  \documentclass{article}  \usepackage[ruled]{algorithm2e} % http://www.ctan.org/pkg/algorithm2e  \begin{document}  \begin{algorithm}[h]  \caption{Evolutionary algorithm}   initialize population \;  \For( \emph{Evolutionary loop}){$g := 1$ to $G_{max}$}  {     do things \;     evolve population \;  }  celebrate \; \end{algorithm}  \end{document} Shell script to send an alert mail if disk usage exceeds 90% Every $n > 17$ is a non-negative integer combination of $4$ and $7$. Why don't websites immediately display their text these days? I've noticed that recently many websites are slow to display their text. Usually, the background, images and so on are going to be loaded, but no text. After some time the text starts appearing here and there (not always all of it at the same time).  It basically works the opposite as it used to, when the text was displayed first, then the images and the rest was loading afterwards. What new technology is creating this issue? Any idea?  Note that I'm on a slow connection, which probably accentuates the problem.  See below for an example - everything's loaded but it takes a few more seconds before the text is finally displayed:
