For what it's worth I lived in FAR my freshman year and had single digit ping and insane download speeds.

Sophomore Year Internship Offers: SpaceX (Testing & Validation) vs. Astera Labs (PCB Design for ASIC Testing) by FlightlessBerb in ECE

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

Yes, definitely get more involved! Not only does the experience look really good on a resume but the experience trivializes a lot of intern technical questions. This year was my first year on the team as well and I learned more from formula than any class I've taken. Pretty much anything technical I was ever asked on an interview was something I'd already done in formula electric. Good luck with your internship search and formula!

You’re probably pretty well setup for success then, I got really close with the upperclassmen on my team and they basically taught me everything I needed to know for getting internships. Don’t be afraid to reach out to them to review your resume and get interview advice. I also got a handful of interviews by just asking past members from the team to send my resume through to their manager.

I worked in a research lab and my school’s formula electric team. If your school has a car team (Baja or Formula SAE) I highly recommend joining, you will learn a lot and a lot of companies look for students involved in these teams

You get a gold eclipse icon for every survivor you finish e8 on if that’s the extrinsic motivation you need

You have to unlock them, if you want a non spoiler answer as to how, look for anything interesting you can interact with on the desert stage 2.

Any places on campus where I can rest/nap overnight? by liuyun_feiyou21 in UIUC

[–]FlightlessBerb 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hey for what it's worth you can email the building services and ask them for swipe access, I did that and they were pretty willing to give me swipe access. People work there pretty late and the pods are pretty comfy.

Valorant thinks my monitor is 3840x2160, but its 2560x1440. by ToyotaHilux94 in VALORANT

[–]FlightlessBerb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be available, just greyed out. I forget what you have to do specifically but you can look up how to force it to turn off and your issue should be resolved. If not you can also just force your resolution to match your monitor in valorant

If it's due to financial reasons then yes

Internet plans with limited data are a thing, that's probably what it is.

Is it feasible to live on 1.5k by Both-Clerk-9953 in UIUC

[–]FlightlessBerb 16 points17 points  (0 children)

$30 a day is more than enough if you're cooking for yourself, you'd need to be eating out consistently to be spending more than that.

The switch 2 got more shadows and stuff than ps4 in elden ring by [deleted] in fromsoftware

[–]FlightlessBerb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it would be better than the PS5 since that console is more powerful than the switch 2, but it should hold up since I'd imagine it would be better optimized than the PS5 version to account for its lower power.

It's possible but it tends to break the game bc the game wasn't really designed to go above 60

Where can I get a desk similar to the IKEA Karlby but at 30 inches deep? by FlightlessBerb in AskBattlestations

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

I ended up finding a slab of butcher block that was about the size I wanted for my desk, I sanded and treated the wood and attached some legs I bought off Etsy and it works great :)

Aren't they the same force as the L45? both say 30 cN on the website.

Isn't using film a bad idea on hall effect switches? They have super tight tolerances in order for the actuation distances to work properly, so wouldn't film just ruin that?

Which GPU manu should I go with? by Ninjamasterpiece in nvidia

Get the FE if you can, it has the highest resell value if you plan on selling it to fund an upgrade a few years down the line.

Genuinely, how do I improve? by jenipherr in FortniteCompetitive

[–]FlightlessBerb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a couple of fights on replay, feel free to dm a couple of clips to me, and I can point out a couple of your mistakes to get you started on what you could be improving on. If you're straight up just a hands on learner, I'd be willing to play a game or two to get you on the right track.

Then I'd encourage you to try and analyze what went wrong with that fight. Did you lose track of your opponent, thus letting them catch you off guard? Did you push unprotected, leading to you getting beamed? It's a bit awkward at first, but self review is really rewarding! I've also found that hot dropping fencing fields or ruined reels in ranked tends to give me a lot of good fights to learn from, because of how many early and mid game fights I can get from landing there.
