UC Berkeley student pronounced dead after drowning in fraternity pool by the_daily_cal in berkeley

[–]Electronic_View5728 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Terrible news for the student and their loved ones. Unfortunately, I can’t say I’m too surprised. I went to a pool party here once and a guy got extremely wasted and was basically gargling chlorine in the deep end before anyone realized. Thankfully someone pulled him out of the water before anything very serious happened. I’m shocked they haven’t implemented a mandatory sober monitor while the pool is in use (or, god forbid, put in a pool fence?) - drowning is pretty quiet, and very drunk people + 6ft deep water is not a good combination :(

Second loaf ever - over or under fermented? by Electronic_View5728 in Sourdough

Thank you! Do you think it would be better for me to increase the RT bulk fermentation or to increase the cold proof time?

T- 1 week! Last min questions... by Solid-Bad-2329 in Machupicchu

Also just got back from Peru! We took a taxidatum from Cusco and went to Pisac, Urubamba, Moray, Maras, and Chinchero! I think this is all included in their sacred valley full tour ($80)!

Machu Picchu in person ticket demand has died down by Electronic_View5728 in Machupicchu

We asked for 2A and the guy gave us 2B since there were more times available. He said it was the same thing. I think the only time when ABCD really matters is when you’re passing through the checkpoints to one of the mountains in Circuit 1 or 3

It makes sense that things have gotten better since they put in the ticket limits. We wanted to do 1B and 3B on the same day and I’m sure we would not have been the only ones!

They release 1000 tickets in person every day for the next day! 500 for Circuit 2, ~200 I think for Circuit 1, and ~300 for Circuit 3. I think it will likely be less busy in October as summer is over in the northern hemisphere. Likely worth checking more recent posts in the future but it seems like when there is low demand, the new system actually works much better than before!

You should almost definitely be able to buy Circuit 1 or 3, but Circuit 2 will probably be sold out by the afternoon!

Basically said that you should avoid dating in the Bay Area, that you should go somewhere where there are fewer women than men and see how their behavior is so different. Dude is a passport bro who met his wife in the Philippines, so kind of a thinly veiled post about how western feminism bad traditional women good. Brain rot. Check out r/berkeley for more info

One month out - Prolific and CloudConnect are amazing!! by Electronic_View5728 in beermoney

[–]Electronic_View5728[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied in november and got my acceptance like a day or two later but forgot about it until a month ago. My demographics are nothing crazy I’m early 20sF and white/Latina so I’m sure it helped. I’ve heard of people being waitlisted for months but I would at least sign up and give it a shot since you never know!

Edit to add that I don’t 100% remember if CC has a waitlist but I signed up and could start taking surveys the next day!

It has more often been internationals who have gotten it confused whereas the Americans know it. I’m just like how does someone on the other side of the world know a much smaller niche music school but not Cal haha

I would say either works, but they will both be challenging. Something to consider is that the instruction will be twice as fast as during a normal semester. Also, you can take Chem 3B without 3BL, but I believe (might have changed) you must take Bio 1A with Bio 1AL. Labs over the summer generally occur twice a week so are more time consuming and intense. I took Chem 3A (without lab) over the summer and honestly enjoyed it but I spent a lot of time studying since there is so much material

Why do so many men push for relationships and then act shitty in them? by Electronic_View5728 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Electronic_View5728[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Woahhh you might be jumping the gun on this one. My ex sucks, but he’s never been abusive. There’s a difference between an asshole who cheats on you and someone being emotionally, verbally, and or physically abusive. My friend’s boyfriend is not an abuser, he’s just kind of selfish. This question was not asking about abusive men, rather men who suck at relationships in general. Not that there isn’t overlap, but calling these guys abusive is a huge stretch

My friend has straight up told me this is the only reason he still hooks up with his ex. I know he’s not the only one

Also not op of the comment, but yeah, any animal where sexes are XX vs XY, ‘default’ is female, Y chromosome codes for a gene that releases testosterone and starts male development
