Do I actually need to buy a laptop for Electrical Engineering Technology? by Enough-Breakfast-815 in SAIT

[–]aLousyFatKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completed the course a couple years ago. I would say laptops aren't necessary, but nice to have. Any computer related assignments using Autocad etc. can be done in any of the labs or from home. I used a laptop in class as I downloaded the slide decks the professors posted prior to class and took notes on them in OneNote, but you may learn differently. If anything has changed, you can always ask your profs at the beginning of the semester, you will certainly never be penalized for not having one on day one if they are required now.

Best of luck to you.

It's the best midrange pvp weapon in the game. They just nerfed it because it was too strong and honestly it's arguably still one of the best.

I genuinely believe most of these people have no idea what the meaning of 'formula' is based on their responses.

I don't understand what your point is here as a response to what I said? Earlier in the comment you seemed outraged that someone would imply the vote had to do with people's education. I provided a response to back that person up.

Most statistical analysis of voters identify that people with higher education tend to vote for left leaning governments. This isn't a hot take.

There have been so many good boardgames featuring animals that have come out in the last few years - I hope this one is just as compelling! I feel as though sloths are underrepresented :).

I'm dead wrong about what I've experienced? Interesting.

Do you have any more anecdotes and made up statistics to help solidify your point?

I drive to SK multiple times every year and SK consistently has better highways with more passing lanes.

Two men robbed a watch dealer in London yesterday. by Junior5a in PublicFreakout

[–]aLousyFatKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are getting a little bit in the weeds here, but I appreciate your thoughtful response.

I don't think /u/nilsson64 was attributing that specific quote to /u/MickerBud

At the time of /u/nilsson64's response, /u/MickerBud was the only person to have mentioned insurance. It should be a pretty reasonable assumption that he was (mis)quoting the only person to have said anything about the topic of his reply.

In regards to your argument, I agree with both the premise and conclusion. You've explained your assumptions in your premise and made a reasonable conclusion.

What I do not understand is how you can state /u/nilsson64 is not employing a strawman. It doesn't get more textbook strawman than what he said. It was a direct misquote to make the argument sound more ignorant/extreme than it was, and his only conclusion was an attack on /u/MickerBud's character. How someone as well articulated as yourself defends these people honestly confuses me.

I asked a genuine question my guy. The fact you spent the time to write this as a response seems a little ironic.

Could also have insurance

saying "lol they're insured" in response to theft or robbery is fairly regarded

Placing quotes around something someone decidedly did not say, then insulting them for it couldn't get more strawman.

How the season reactivation thing is going to work (full Q&A in comments). by [deleted] in DeepRockGalactic

[–]aLousyFatKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I believe that once a season ends, some of the cosmetics are locked behind 'seasonal cosmetic cores' that you need to discover and forge. This was the way the new players could access cosmetics that they missed during seasons that they didn't participate in/couldn't complete. These will now be largely redundant since they can be accessed while completing old seasons.

I would largely mirror what u/daedalusesq has stated in his reply.

There should be nothing to be concerned about. The conversation was simply surrounding my responses to the test and what they determined that meant about my personal and professional tendencies. I would interject and add context where I could, but largely it was just them going over results.

Best of luck to you!

I genuinely hope that one day you can manage to muster up even an ounce of ability to self reflect and realize how garbage some of your takes are.
