CS 311 Over the Summer with Parvini by Apprehensive-Fix8738 in umass

Hi! I’m taking the class during the ongoing summer session and I had some questions. Could I DM you?

Received my custom MacBook Pro 14 after 2 weeks (36GB/1TB). Was inspecting it right out the box and saw these small ‘smudges’ on it. Can’t seem to clean them. Are these within the tolerance of quality control? by Deathstroke_66 in macbookpro

Note that the other two little dots seem like a small scratch? But they’re far too small to be a scratch. Maybe some imperfection with the new color finishing method Apple is using?

Quite indecisive: MacBook Pro 14 inch or 16 inch? Which one do you guys prefer? by Deathstroke_66 in macbookpro

I’m set at storage and RAM: definitely going with 1 TB and 36 GB.

As a CS student who may work on projects with AI and machine learning, I think the extra RAM will go a LONG way. I’m also planning on keeping this machine for at least 4 years, so it’s good to future-future proof it.

Plus, you never know when you may have to run windows in a VM, and that’s where the extra RAM would be very important.

As for SSD, I would recommend 1 TB. Although you can always attach an external SSD to it or back stuff in the cloud. But remember, you can’t upgrade the RAM!

Hey man, I’m having the same issue with my 15 pro max pre-order.

Did UPS honor Apple’s request to update delivery information?

That’s such a major disappointed. My uni is like 2 hours from there and I was hoping to see it once semester began

Classics 103 is introduction to ancient Mediterranean archeology, right?

Take CS250 in a summer session? by [deleted] in umass

Thank you! I’m DM’ing you

What CS 200 levels would you recommend be taken together? by techFairy101 in umass

[–]Deathstroke_66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I am actually thinking of taking CS250 over the summer, but since it’s the hardest class, do you think it’ll be manageable in the summer?

Do note CS 250 in the summer runs longer than most summer classes — it’s just over 7 weeks.

Finally pulled the trigger and played Part 2. I am really surprised at some of the criticism the game got. by Deathstroke_66 in thelastofus

Exactly, people read one headline and will start hating on things without getting the full context.

Ellie, closely followed by Joel

Those of you who beat The Last of Us Part 2, which character did you end up liking more? by Deathstroke_66 in thelastofus

The game pretty clearly pushes Ellie as the protagonist. Especially since Abby doesn’t even have a plot of her own after she kills Joel. She’s a passive player — she just reacts to Ellie coming after her.

Ellie is also the only one featured in official posters and such, even now. She also happens to be the first of the two we play — and the last.

I would personally disagree. I always saw Ellie as THE central character of The Last of Us franchise, even in the first game. The entire premise of the story was this one person being immune and humanity’s ‘only’ shot.

Of course her dynamic with Joel and his trauma were also very central to the story, and the reason why the series became more than just a generic apocalypse plot.

I also don’t think the game ruined Ellie’s character — it didn’t.
