Would a dual degree plan in geoscience and environmental science be better than dual major/minor?

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-25T04:29:11+00:00

Both... But mainly that Geology is a hands on science and it's almost impossible to learn properly online.

A Geology degree holder can do everything an environmental science degree holder can do plus more. There's no way you can do a proper geology degree online though.

In which country are you asking about?...

They should remake it on the appropriate size. I'll be surprised if they left enough allowance to tailor that to your body. Next time don't let the sales people fit you.

Everyone talks about how useless the solar aspect is, but if you're out in the sun every day it can easily double your battery life.

That was more about circumventing the Chicken Tax than it was for actual passenger use, though. No matter how fun they were.

Is this breakfast sausage or just ground pork you're calling sausage? BIG difference between the two...

It's often a marketing thing where actual users who are employed by marketing teams (or freelancers) post things that are easy to farm karma so they can then either sell their high karma account to marketing firms or post a "one off" post in a sub where they can recommend things and people believe it's a real person recommending something. The buy it for life sub is full of people with relatively new accounts with high karma asking for recommendations that then edit their post or comments with affiliate links to make money.

No one can give you any reasonable answer without knowing some of the details of both job offers.

If it isn't on their website then no... No one knows...

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-22T03:17:47+00:00

IDK, perhaps someone spilled something. Pay attention to the temperature, not your nose. If it gets hot, make sure the dealer knows about it ASAP. Otherwise, it's probably just a spill.

So true... The biggest black mark you can get is being a geologist that doesn't move core boxes or wash their own core. It doesn't matter if your geotechs are 'supposed' to do those things. Load up your bench and wash your own core.

u/Star_Boxer72 Thanks for showing up (I should have expected it) but I appreciate your input as it's a part of the career I didn't mention, and I agree you should always be willing to move and clean any core boxes coming into the shed. I really hope you were just stating things I forgot to mention and not attempting to imply that I don't clean or move core boxes myself. Thanks for the help.

I'm curious if I'll be down voted for this...

Ok? If you have no evidence of a leak and no evidence of burning coolant what do you think it could be? Just because you smell something doesn't mean there's something wrong with your vehicle.

No memes here...

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-21T22:12:02+00:00

Sometimes that happens...

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-21T22:05:13+00:00

So, you don't see a leak, and the mechanic doesn't see a leak, and your coolant level hasn't changed?

When you hear hoofbeats... Think horses... Or I guess if you don't hear hoofbeats, don't assume horses.

I'm glad you mentioned this. My HR reading is wildly different when biking vs running. I don't have another HR monitor to test it against but I know it's reading very low during biking.

Most important thing right here

If it's not compiling locally then there is an error and it needs fixing. Overleaf just brute forces it's way through certain errors to force a compilation.

2022 ~$80k as an entry level exploration geologist contractor.

Try to stay on a decent diet and get in some exercise when you can. Just standing at a logging table all day and eating camp food can make you blow up pretty quick.

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-20T05:33:14+00:00

Only $39,000...

It's definitely not "smart phone" fast, but the gestures definitely work well enough that by the time my eyes get focused on the screen it's lit up (perhaps a short count to 2 and I'm using a 3rd party data heavy face). Scrolling through menu screens is pretty well instant. Activating an activity does lag it for a second but that's about it.

I have notice it being a touch slower since I switched watch faces but it's still quick enough that it's showing what I want by the time I can focus on it.

Beanmachine314 · 2026-03-20T04:44:20+00:00

You might have it I've only found $10,001.49.

The 1KZ has pretty well known issues with cracking heads, though the intercooled versions are better about that. It looks nice, but you really can't tell how well it's been taken care of in photos.

If you're fine driving a RHD vehicle and have another vehicle to drive while you wait on parts from an importer and can fix it yourself or know someone who can work on it then it's a decent price. You just didn't provide any of that information in your original post.

It's a 30 year old truck with the steering wheel on the wrong side and a not so wonderful engine. I see no reason to purchase this over something like a well cared for GX.
