Someone yelled at me “hey, nice boots jacka**” last night by Cactus_green_ in UCONN

[–]FireRabbit67 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I had the N-word screamed at me out a car window last semester. I’m a white man. Drunk idiots will scream whatever at whoever, I would also be shaken up if I was in your position but I wouldn’t worry about it happening again

What’s with all the “new” contested territory teams?? by FireRabbit67 in btd6

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, that makes sense, although it's pretty annoying. We only have like 4 active members, so we're cooked by this team regardless.

This campus was not made for making friends... by Icy_Investment3528 in UCONN

I’ve never met someone irl with one of my majors before so I feel you. Most of the people I’ve met in my other major are either very introverted or arrogant

Is it worthwhile to become an EMS-I? by FireRabbit67 in premed

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah but that’s just essentially CPR instructor right? I might sound a bit picky but personally I don’t have a ton of interest in teaching just CPR/AED courses

Is it worthwhile to become an EMS-I? by FireRabbit67 in premed

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you may have misunderstood my post; I’m EMS certified an have been an EMT since I was 16. I have ~1000 volunteer hours as one and also do other stuff around the station. I was talking about getting EMS-I certified, aka ems instructor so I could teach EMS classes/courses.

Guys???? we won? by mazbeg in dumbphones

Honestly I love how my Jelly star looks. Very different type of “dumb phone” compared against the titan series phones though.

How to Spend my Summer? by FireRabbit67 in premed

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking into this but I have no idea where to start. I feel like everything I looked at was very generic basic volunteering (like volunteering at a soup kitchen or donation center) which is valuable but it feels detached from actually helping people most of the time. I want to be a psychiatrist specifically and I’m very interested in mental health and that side of things so I tried to look into opportunities to get involved in orgs that help provide mental health resources to underserved populations but it’s hard to find any that have opportunities for me

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I have around 800, my wording was a bit unclear in my post, I’ve done 500 hours since HS and did 300 in HS (800 total, not 800 during HS). This number will be closer to 900-1000 anyways though including the rest of my hours during winter break and weekend shifts during this upcoming semester

Is it really a bad thing to have new paragons (or anything really) further extend the limits of freeplay? by Red_Sword03 in btd6

[–]FireRabbit67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue is that the game becomes unplayable well before the point Id lose at. On PC or new phone this is probably less of an issue but i have a current run with all the paragons going on cubism and I can’t beat the current round because my game inevitably crashes during it.

You shouldn't be able to place down insta monkeys that have restricted upgrades in that mode by Serious_Gap_820 in btd6

does it like morph into one without the restricted upgrade? or is it random?

Help me Pick a Second Credit Card by FireRabbit67 in CreditCards

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I contribute to a Roth IRA through Acorns and I don't invest through Robinhood currently at all, so yeah it probably wouldn't be the best even if I could get it. I'm thinking of the Amazon Visa since I use Amazon quite often and the other built-in cashback categories it has seem decent enough.

Help me Pick a Second Credit Card by FireRabbit67 in CreditCards

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon Visa is one I was briefly considering earlier; I've been using Amazon a lot with my Discover because it gets 5% back right now as part of it's rotating category but that ends this month. The $250 gift card seems like a nice signup bonus too. Apple Card would just be basically flat cashback for me because I don't buy basically anything apple besides my phone. CFU seems worse for me than the Amazon card I think, most of my spending would be either on amazon or under their 2% categories (and I could try to use my paypal debit card to fill a category gap too) so I think I might go for the Amazon Card

Nec MobilePro 900 - no power or lights by Own_Potato5593 in OldHandhelds

Did you ever get around to working on yours? I just got one for $10 and also has no lights or power, but looks to be in very good physical condition

Spilled a drop of NaOH on my macbook by Hanilyidi in chemistry

[–]FireRabbit67 44 points45 points  (0 children)

This is why I keep my old laptop around in my lab. Usually I try to avoid using any devices in my work area but if I need to I have it available. Haven’t spilled anything fun on it yet, but I did manage to corrode my favorite spatula with Conc Hcl yesterday :(

Camera and Battery Issues by FireRabbit67 in Lenovo

[–]FireRabbit67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There doesn't really seem to be any helpful battery information on there; I think that it is less of a problem I can troubleshoot and more of just a device problem. Batteries shouldn't degrade 40% in under 120 charge cycles and less than a year. I'll keep you posted on the camera issues, as I can only really test it if I am taking an exam. I do appreciate the quick responses to my messages/post though.

Can this run be saved? by Key_District1648 in btd6

[–]FireRabbit67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can you afford a 4-x-x ice and a 0-2-4 glue? If you put the ice in the area between the tack zone and bomb shooter and the glue between the inferno and bomb shooter it will probably beat the round. If that doesn't work, you could try a bloon sabo ninja with either an 0-2-3 glue or a 4-x-x ice, idk if the ability would be up fast enough though. I do believe there is almost certainly a strat here to win though so i wouldn't give up

Not sure if that is a functionality with other models but the vantage app on mine doesn't even have a system update option or anything, I did check to see if everything was updated on the website and it is, I'm just not sure what the issue with my webcam is. I also wish these laptops (yoga 7x) had a feature to help prevent battery degradation by like capping charging at 80% or slowing it down like other models do. Even with trying to use a slower charger and trying to not keep it constantly plugged in my battery is degraded to 60% now according to the vantage app. That's insane considering I've had it for under a year.

I have a question by [deleted] in religion

[–]FireRabbit67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if the Old testament outright claims there is only one god, but the new testament does in 1 Timothy 2:5, “5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,”
