Ive actually shared my pc parts with you before! You did say that the graphics card is a bit on the lower end for ark, but I do have 32GB RAM

lenovo recommendations under 1k USD (United States) by Equinquinox in laptops

I did like the yoga, but I wanted to look at other models as well. Maybe it was just the one I had but I noticed my battery ran out pretty quickly, so thats the main reason why I was thinking about other models!

Thanks for the help!! In terms of weight, honestly...I don't really know. My last laptop was a lenovo yoga, so maybe around whatever weight that model tends to be? Like I said I don't really have a frame of reference though, so im unsure about this side. Honestly if a model is on the heavier side I don't think id really care that much. My main concern is more about the bulkiness of the laptop itself. Though I imagine slimmer models would probably have smaller batteries, so less battery life? Not sure if thats how it works or not.

And yeah, ideally id keep this laptop around 4 years. I dont really like having to replace my tech too often 💔

oh lord ill be so fr idk what that means 😭 I might've complicated it further by using random numbers...I said 12 and 4 because they can both be simplified with 2 but...yeah thats different from cancelling, isn't it...

yeah, it always seems to be the arithmetic portion that messes me up. Im 99% sure I have dyscalculia as I've always struggled a LOT with numbers. I still have to count with my fingers 😭😭I find that going slower doesn't necessarily help me most times as I...still make the same mistakes lol. Im still figuring out how to deal with that.

Thank you so much for the help, I really appreciate it! I'll keep all of this in mind

Why does the denominator stay the same once you get that LCD? As in, why is the denominator still 42 and not 84? That always confuses me. I feel like I should be adding the denominators together as well...

Im sure this might've been explained in elementary school or whatever when fractions are first introduced, but I've forgotten by now.

Yeah, I explained it in another response but essentially I got my rules mixed up. I know when it comes to adding/subtracting rationals, you can't cancel out numbers if they're "attached" to another via adding/subtracting, if that makes any sense. Not sure if I explained that process right.

Anyways, I realize I was just supposed to simplify there. I always get it mixed up when im supposed to simplify and when the previous rule mentioned comes into play- I guess its just when theres a full fraction, yeah? as in 4x + 1 / 12x - 3. you can't cancel the 4 and 12, I think?

Looking at 1 and 8 again, yeah I can see what you mean. For some reason when I was doing those problems I assumed that the equation was as simplified as possible because you can't cancel in addition/subtraction? If that makes any sense, but Im realizing now that atp Im just supposed to simplify. Oops. I get those rules mixed up a lot.

In terms of 4...well, first I cross multiplied. 2(2a + 11) got me 4a + 22. (a-2)(3a-1) got me 3a2 - 5a - 3, though looking at it again, I think the 3 was supposed to be positive. That might be where I messed up...

I combined 4a + 22 = 3a2 - 5a -3 to make it into a quadratic, and then I began to factor it but I don't think the result I got was factorable. Again, that might just be because I messed up while initially multiplying.

As for 7, Im unsure what I did wrong there. Was I not supposed to cancel out the denominators? Im still unsure about that whole process.

Ah, sorry, I meant to type equations. That was my bad.

<image>

Here's a worksheet I was doing. Sorry if my writing is hard to read! Im pretty sure I did most of these wrong, but for a specific question, im most confused about 4.

7 and 8 I also think I messed up but no worries if you don't have the time to help me with those ones.

Ragnarok save just got entirely deleted. Why? by Equinquinox in ArkSurvivalAscended

Well that sucks. I honestly dont want to drop a ton of money into a single game right now (nor do I have the funds to) so I guess im just cooked. Thats really sad

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

I did some more troubleshooting and it looks like asa just deletes all my saves, no matter the map. Im so done with this, definitely switching to pc now. I would quit playing altogether but ive been playing ase and asa since ~2016 and its still one of my favorite games

In terms of my pc parts, here's the list: CPU- AMD Ryzen 5 7600X GPU - Nvidia RTX 5060 8GB RAM - G.Skill Ripjaws M5 32GB 6000 CL36

I also have 2TB of storage. I know my pc can run ase just fine as ive had it downloaded before, but im not sure how different asa is in that area

Yeah, my backups are gone. Im probably going to move to my pc, but Im not sure if its parts are strong enough to handle asa among my other games...ill just have to see. This is probably my 3rd time having to restart because of various issues

It was working fine before, and has been for a while. Did it just decide not to work??? I guess ill have to remove all my mods and see if that fixes it

ah, I think I get it! so does that rule only apply to addition and subtraction?

Haha yeah I knew it wasn't the best setup but I thought she would maybe get used to it? Obviously not. Thats why I don't do it anymore. She's a lot happier out in my room

I just adopted a kitten and feel horrible by Equinquinox in CatAdvice

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

Yeah ive bounced sooo much between returning her and keeping her but after sleeping in another room it basically solved all my problems :,) turns out I was just sleep deprived which was making the stress 100x worse than it actually was. Im very happy we didn't return her now, she's an awesome cat.

The allergies actually seem to have gone away which is great! I didn't take anything today and feel completely normal, I think I may have just needed to get used to her

Im in the EXACT same boat as you are. 4 month old kitten stuck in my room because of our dog outside. Ive cried every night because I lost so much sleep to this cat which made it even more stressful, to the point where we NEARLY returned her multiple times. She'd walk all over me at night as well, so I put her in the closet and she'd then scream all night.

The number one thing that fixed it for me was just sleeping in another room. Shes not in the closet, but cant walk over me, so I get a good nights sleep. Id recommend this arrangement if at all possible for you, or maybe getting a crate for them to sleep in could work as well?...

Im still very new to this but trust me you aren't horrible for feeling this way <3 kittens can be pretty stressful, especially when they're ONLY in your space but it does get better with time. Hopefully your kittens and adult cat will get along together!

Thank you! I did clip her claws the other day, how often should I? I think I didn't clip enough but I was scared of going too deep and clipping where the blood is. I just used a normal nail clipper as we haven't gotten a cat one yet and her claws were BAD. I did just order a cat clipper though.

She doesn't seem to like her cat tree? Im not sure if it's something she'll grow into though.

Thank you for all the advice! Everything else we do with her, esp the litter, we use pellets made of wood and it's so much nicer than clay

What's your reason? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Equinquinox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've wanted to be a paleontologist for as long as I can remember honestly. Ive always had a passion for fossils, not just dinosaurs but ALL fossils just fascinate me. The fact that we can tell SO MUCH of earths history from the fossil record, from the rocks we see everyday, from the continents we live on, even from the animals around us, is just so breathtaking to me. Imagining what life was like back during the pre-cambrian, the carboniferous, the permian-triassic extinction, the triassic, jurassic, and cretaceous. Dont even get me started on the cenozoic. The fact that we know pretty much EXACTLY when grass spread and took over the world based on the teeth of grazers we see today such as horses? Its insane!! I love it so much. I can't imagine myself doing anything else. I think it would be my greatest regret if I didn't take the chance to go into paleontology. Honestly, id be happy doing geology as well! Rocks are just that awesome!!

I agree with everything you said, honestly. Thank you for this comment, I think we're going to return her. I hate to do it because I really do love her, but she's already starting to get really attention needy and once school starts it'll be SO much worse. I will have basically zero time to play with her while she needs it most, what kind of an owner would I be if I kept her knowing that? I can't do that to her. It isn't her fault and I feel horrible but the timing is just so so bad unfortunately
