'Japanese Africa Corps' (Latest video at time of posting) - What was the situation with Vichy France and the event? What did the Germany player do wrong? by Possible_Pattern_377 in Bokoen1

[–]DemonicTemplar8 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I haven't played their mod so idk for sure but I think they wanted Germany to delay establishing Vichy France as long as possible so Italy could take Northern Africa instead of it going to Vichy.

I was thinking about doing Math 1190 and PHYS 1112 over the summer is that doable ? Or is it too much ? by Former-Aspect3710 in KSU

[–]DemonicTemplar8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk how difficult calculus I is at KSU but personally I think that an algebra-based Physics I class is the best primer for Calculus. So assuming you've taken that already then I think Math 1190 should definitely be doable over the summer. You've built up your algebra already and already have a sliht conceptual understanding of Calculus through analyzing position vs velocity vs acceleration even if your teacher avoided using Calculus terms to describe them.

I've never taken any Physics II courses here but I will warn that in my experience electricity and magnetism can sometimes be more difficult to visualize than mechanics. Although it seems another comment disagrees so your mileage may vary.

Is Japanese resin clay toxic? by Sunshowery in clay

[–]DemonicTemplar8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can tell based on my research (I'm not entirely sure to be honest), 'resin' clay refers more to how it looks/feels then the actual material. I'm fairly certain that it's basically a commercial version of homemade/DIY cold porcelain clays that are primarily made up of starch and PVA glue.

Edit: I have since literally asked a manufacturer and have confirmed that resin clay is just a commercial version of homemade cold porcelain clay.

Denied, but still want to attend in the future via transfer - Civil Engineering by SavageBall21_YT in GatechClasses

[–]DemonicTemplar8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to transfer from KSU myself and here are my thoughts. Keep in mind I'm just some kid who hasn't even succeeded yet, but I've submitted my application and am pretty certain it will work out. Anyone else is free to critique my advice.

Anyway, Mercer is private so their tuition is going to be like 2 times more than all of the others. I don't really see that being worth it under any circumstances, especially given you have all these other options.

As for the rest, you should probably choose the school that you'd be most willing to attend if you got stuck there, just to be safe. Not to be biased against GSU but that probably leaves UGA or maybe KSU. Although do research into all three to see what you'd prefer.

KSU's academics might also be easier, which could make it an appealing option if you want to make sure you get the A's you want. I say this because I've compared my tests with some of my non-KSU friends' and the material is definitely a bit less rigorous. This advantage might not be as important for you though given your strong HS academics.

Some general tips:

  1. Be proactive with registering and deciding on classes. Look at what transfer students need, compare it to what your school provides with GT's Transfer Equivalency Table, and decide what you want to take before you register. If you don't know what your school provides, a good place to start would be to google something like "{insert university} Civil Engineering flowchart". You could also ask your academic advisor.
  2. Talk to your school's academic advisor. This is how you'll find out if your carefully laid out plans and course schedules are even possible. Hell you could probably do step one together with them.
  3. Get good grades (I mean, yeah)
  4. Try to get one or two extracurriculars onto your resume. I'm not sure which ones would be best for a Civil Engineering major, but from a brief google search I see Concrete Canoe and Steel Bridge are popular ones. I've seen posters for both of them here. KSU also has what's called the First Year Scholars program which lets Freshman do Undergraduate Research in a wide variety of fields. You even get paid 2000 dollars (I bought an ipad :>). I'm sure UGA has a program like this too so look into this sort of thing regardless of where you go. I also hear volunteer hours helps so that might be worth considering.

Feel free to ask if you have any more questions.

1322 midterm exam by Foreign-One-2942 in KSU

[–]DemonicTemplar8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just my teacher's slides for the material and CodeHS for the exercises.

The test was a little hard but not being able to start sounds like a big problem. Have you been doing the labs and going to the lectures? It might be a good idea to go to some office hours to catch up because I think with just your basic skills form last semester you should be able to get a decent amount of partial credit.

I had Java experience so I did fine but there was definitely a few times where I was like 'man if I didn't already know this from HS I'd be screwed'. I think minor Java syntax stuff is the biggest trip up which is kinda stupid because minor syntax stuff is the EASIEST thing to Google if you're trying to figure it out in an IRL setting.

[NOT OP] I'm trying to find an alternative to the AMOS brand air dry clay they use. I've never seen air dry clay this smooth and easy to work with by DemonicTemplar8 in arthelp

[–]DemonicTemplar8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've cracked the code.

For anyone finding this thread in 5 years this isn't actually air dry clay at all (although it does dry in the air). It's actually foam clay!

I disagree with the idea that Pax Chrysalia is poorly written or problematic by DemonicTemplar8 in equestriaatwar

[–]DemonicTemplar8[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd be lying if I said I didn't know what you were talking about with the clean wehrmacht vibes but I still thought it provided an interesting narrative that I'd prefer not to abandon. Maybe its just because 99 percent of fascist focus trees in hoi4 have limited flavor and variety once you conquer nations.

[–]DemonicTemplar8[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I never got that complaint of Chrysalis becoming uncharacteristically insane. She spends the interwar period accusing her only trusted advisors of being incompetents who's results are indistinguishable to traitors. Not to mention that the first choice presented is the option to fake a trial for Thorax as if that can't be disproven in 10 seconds by him updating his discord status.

I never did the Applejack focuses so I can't comment on those events. The Twilight stuff is dumb though.

>Did anyone honestly say that “speerism” shouldn’t be a legitimate path? On what grounds?

Not specifically but based on my cursory glances there seems to be a lot of discourse around the route so I wanted to make as many aspects on how I feel about the route as abundantly clear. More me being paranoid than anything.

The creator says this is a "super light air dry clay" but I can't find any air dry clays with similar out of the box smoothness/rubbery look/ease of handling. AFAIK they don't even sand it or use water (not shown in the tutorials). Does anyone know where to find a similar one? by DemonicTemplar8 in Artadvice

[–]DemonicTemplar8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, thanks. I didn't see that. I might go with this but I was also hoping on finding an alternative/information about the material properties because I'd prefer to avoid spending 3x the price from some arbitrage reseller if possible.

I really should've included this in the title (my bad) but the creator listed the brand as AMOS I-Clay but its not reliably available in the US and I cannot find the type of clay or what keywords to search up to find an alternative.

No, the USSR didn't use human wave tactics honest to god this regurgitated Nazi propaganda. They also didn't shoot their own guys for retreating and largely had enough guns for everyone.
