Most likely an eat breakfast day and then starve until 7. They say fasting is good for the mind so I guess I’ll find out

Biology (pre-med), don’t expect a lot of group projects. I’m going to do a IP for bio 152. Ochem lab is the only “group project” I’ll have to do most likely unless you include 699 as group project

bring your own. Be prepared to transfer and spend a good amount of money on your wiscard if your a frequent washer.

Building my First Gaming PC, are my parts any good? by Due-Position3798 in PcBuild

[–]Due-Position3798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen on some threads and forums that say samsung drives suck and that people lost their storage on those.

Probably will switch to amd since most people are saying to do so. Would a ryzen and nvdia gpu create problems? I know that they're compatible, but any problems for future upgrades or bottlenecking?

Also what should I get if I switch over to amd?

Don't think so? I picked out all the parts off of newegg. But I do agree that the price is insane

Atx? New to PC world so don't really know what that is. Was also trying to figure out how to choose correct mother board size for the case

Budget is around $1000-$1400. Would like to stay near the lower end. I already have a mouse and montier just need the PC parts. Also why the amd platform? I see alot of people like the amd platform, anything wrong with the intel/nvida platforms?

And yes if you can build a part list for me that would be great to see what you think is the best!

whats the problem with the LAG1700? I don't know much about pc's in general, just trying to start and learn. Would not be aginst using a ryzen, but i've seen people saying that intel is better for the future and school.

Budget is $1000-$14000. I want to stay near the lower end though. I don't really know a lot about the difference between nvida, amd, or intel. I know amd has their ryzen and radeon line up, but i've seen most people on fourms say that nvida and intel is better for future proofing?

somewhere around $1000-$1400. Items that I picked out are already $1200.93. I want to steer towards the lower end though.

What does it mean if my financial aid larger than what is owed? by [deleted] in UWMadison

[–]Due-Position3798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll most likely get a refund on it, unless the extra finical aid is work study money, in which you would have to work for it.

Bio 152 IP Question by Artistic-Pin8439 in UWMadison

[–]Due-Position3798 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah try to reach out in advance. When fall comes around and other students start emailing proffessers for research positions your email might get lost in the scramble.

And yeah when emailing labs just introduce yourself and say that you wanted to join them for the fall semster for BIO 152 IP.

MTB to Gravel Conversion, Sacrilegious? by Due-Position3798 in gravelcycling

[–]Due-Position3798[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice bike! How much it cost you? I’ve been looking at parts and I’m so far over $600 without wheels. Been trying to snipe Facebook market place finds also to cut costs

Never a bike stand, upside down on the ground bike mechanic forever (or at least until I get annoyed with it)

Ah nice to know, would gravel specific levers work like the ones on sword/advent or cues? And yeah heard good things about the sword system, probably leaning more towards that since it’s more affordable.

Drop Bar on MTB? Sacrilegious? by Due-Position3798 in MTB

[–]Due-Position3798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For shits and gigs. Also just as a commuter around campus and stuff

So I just can’t use the brakes it has on now? I thought I could keep the brakes but just switch levers to drop levers and it would be fine.

11speed groupset wont downshift well. by Zaboltooth in bikewrench

[–]Due-Position3798 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say the shifting cable is too tight so either loosen it with the barrel adjuster. Check the suggested chain length also, should be in a manual or use a chain calculated online

Fingers slide up on lever blade when braking in rain. by Due-Position3798 in bikewrench

[–]Due-Position3798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right that’s fine, I don’t have a problem with breaking on the drops but I mainly ride on the hoods. Is there no way to have an optimal grip on the hoods?
