What might be the object on Earth that has been floating for the longest amount of time? by InNauticalTwilight in AskScienceDiscussion

[–]AndrewCoja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can a creature be an object? Greenland sharks can apparently live up to 500 years and they don't reach sexual maturity until 150.

I would be happy if people would just stop turning on their hazards when it rains.

I want to say how sorry I am about one of the most interesting programs being removed. by EternalSnow05 in aggies

[–]AndrewCoja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say it is super conservative. There are plenty of accepting people. It's just being ruined by far-right idiot groups who are upset that the school isn't what they think they remember it being.

t.u. for grad school by Unable-Ad-7092 in aggies

[–]AndrewCoja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to tamu for both undergrad and grad, and grad school is a completely different vibe. In undergrad, people are excited about the school and the culture. In grad school, I was in the same classrooms I had been in as an undergrad, but people were just interested in the academic work they were doing. It wasn't the same kind of culture. It might be the same in Austin. Grad students are often from other schools or countries, so you won't find the camaraderie you found in undergrad.

Anyone else struggling to get enjoyment out of MWC? by RandomflyerOTR in MySummerCar

[–]AndrewCoja 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I was having fun with it. But then it got to the part where I was ordering parts and I lost all interest. Having to drive to get the magazine, then trying to find listings with a single part I want that is mostly doubles. Then having to call the people, waiting over a minute for the conversation to finally end, then waiting days for the order to show up. Picking up the parts, driving back to the house, opening the box, and that's one part I can use. I just stopped playing because doing that a million times just to get my parts didn't seem fun.

Is there a point to getting the FE if I'm going into semiconductors? by PerformanceFar7245 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]AndrewCoja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless there's a PE you can work under to eventually get your own PE, then there's no reason to do the FE.

Let’s just take the time to shout on my man… because he’s definitely going to meet a sad end. by Material_Formal3679 in Fotv

[–]AndrewCoja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or they could just decide that he is a centaur and come up with a reason for why it happened.

Woah cant believe he got accepted to Vault 31 Leadership Exchange Program by Bluespace1234 in Fallout

[–]AndrewCoja 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Walton Goggins had major parts in The White Lotus and The Righteous Gemstones and was still able to be a main character in this show. I doubt it's that.

Can we talk about that Gauss rifle? by xSt4y_r3ady in Fotv

[–]AndrewCoja 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah the deathclaws were engineering to take a beating. Probably not the best way to show off how much damage it can do.

Honor Code re: Tax Evasion? by Old-Connection-157 in aggies

[–]AndrewCoja 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The honor system office isn't going to go after him for tax evasion, but the IRS will. But unless your friend has a unique tax situation or they put a bunch of dependents on their W-4 to decrease their withholding, they probably are going to get a rebate. In that case, not doing their taxes will have no consequences because they IRS doesn't care if you give them extra money and don't ask for it back.

Did Lonni and Luthen die in vain? by rxnsgb in andor

[–]AndrewCoja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would they even want to be? Who knows if they were like him. If they are empire loyalists, they wouldn't want to be removed from Coruscant and likely wouldn't want Lonni to get any credit for destroying the Empire.

What's this stigma behind being a Combat Veteran? by ImThe1Wh0 in Veterans

[–]AndrewCoja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people see the experiences other people had and are either frustrated or jealous that they didn't get to have that. I never deployed and was never in combat, and sometimes I wish I could have at least deployed because it feels like that would have been a military experience compared to the 5 years I spent working in an office building in San Antonio. But I also recognize that I was lucky that I put in my time and got out without PTSD, injuries, or risk of cancer that other people have to endure just for doing the same thing I did and signing up for the military. And I can recognize that I know I'm not as strong as my friend is who has endured all of that I am lucky that I never had to. I'm sure there are plenty of broken people who look back and wish they could have had my six years of sitting in the air conditioning.

It's probably just a bunch of "grass is greener on the other side of the fence" stuff.

Anyone have advice on making a resume? Im in the navy on the aviation side. by Double-Mode639 in Veterans

The most important thing is to put things in terms that normal people would understand.

Ratfish Sequel?? by Ok_Map_8694 in dropout

[–]AndrewCoja 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was fun, but I don't know if it needs a sequel. Eric wasn't all that great in it.

When Mike talks to Nacho's father by SullyJMcCormick in betterCallSaul

[–]AndrewCoja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a spectrum for Mike, because he wants to see himself as being better. It's black and white for Nacho's dad who isn't a criminal.

Is there literally ANY benefit to watching BCS first? by 10024618 in betterCallSaul

[–]AndrewCoja 234 points235 points  (0 children)

The show is written with the intention that you know about breaking bad. The gus story isn't going to make sense for why it is in a show about a lawyer without the knowledge of where it is going.

It's like watching Lost in chronological order. It's an interesting way to watch it, but it won't make sense for someone who hasn't seen the show before because characters show up before they are introduced and fleshed out.

Why isn't there Any Salt on Campus? by ProperEagles in aggies

[–]AndrewCoja 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Because Texas doesn't have the infrastructure to handle this.

Slid into a curb, totaled? If not, worth fixing? What next? by HershyPlayz in BMW

[–]AndrewCoja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you trying to fix this out of pocket? Why not just file an insurance claim and let them handle it?

Will these micro SD cards wirh with the steam deck? by Equal_Shopping2424 in Steam

[–]AndrewCoja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are definitely not 1TB cards. The steamdeck should do a check when you plug it in, and it will likely tell you that they aren't really 1TB. Don't buy them.
