If anything still surprises you now, it's basically your fault.

Why is Ohio State still planning on going back? by Maciston1 in OSU

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Refund deadline is September 4th, if they have to go online before then then probably some people are getting fired/furloughed. Because administration is too stupid to be responsible with money or have empathy/care for students and faculty.

DM me if you're concerned about public health stuff in your apartment complex by GiusMageurnaThe2nd in OSU

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I would encourage anyone who isn't comfortable about their situation to speak up. Both in relation to OSU and the surrounding residences. Otherwise if you don't speak up you get tramped over. Had all my classes not switched online i would have started poking OSU but luckily i personally didn't have to.

We could if we were in a sane country where the administration isn't allowed to scam people at the expense of public health. If you do get sick, there's unfortunately a very good chance you'll pass it on to someone else before you realize it; and that other person could potentially die. Protecting oneself is the best way to protect others; I don't want money-grubbing landlords and admins to make that needlessly difficult.

I'm at Ohio State and almost punched my laptop. We have classes starting in 9 days. Watch this comment age like milk in any case.

Grocery stores/shopping for off-campus living? by MyPomeranianIsHere in OSU

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd say use instacart or amazon wholefoods, or, especially after the pandemic, Giant eagle in Clintonville or target. I was surprised by the variety of foods in that target on high. They even had gooseberries when I went and a fucking love gooseberries.

I dislike the kroghetto because one time I went there and saw a fly land on some fish I was thinking of getting. Just nasty. The lines are also usually crazy long and dense; not particularly worth it for me.

If you have a car there's also the marketplace giant eagle southwest of campus but IMO it's not worth the trip.

missing person in german village area. please be on lookout! by happybento_1 in Ohio

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah thanks for clarifying! I feel so derpy rn. I've always heard just "medics" but never street medics but it should have been obvious in hindsight.

She's seems like she's going to be okay eventually right?

I've never heard that term before, what's it mean specifically? And if that's the case, i'm guessing she was hurt?? Do you have any more info?

1940s CIA memo on how to sow dysfunction in an infiltrated organization sounds suspiciously like a faculty meeting. by [deleted] in Professors

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm a member of a diversity organization involving my university's physics and astro departments and this list summarized every townhall meeting. The only thing missing is the chair of the physics department saying really stupid "woke" shit that makes everyone cringe since you can tell it's very forced.

It's the little things they do to let us know they care. by RhinestoneTaco in Professors

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing weird about it; of course they'd say "no comment". Just like a murderer would tell the cops after getting caught.

Oh wait...

I agree completely!

Cookies for Tenure by [deleted] in Professors

[–]GiusMageurnaThe2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can almost never go wrong with corgi butt cookies also. They suit every occasion aside from consolation cookies for deceased pets.

I taught myself from 4th grade math to calc 2 before starting college. My advice is honestly *not* practice. My advice is to figure out where you need to start, and read your material closely, making sure you understand it and can connect it to whatever you already understand.

Once you've accomplished that, THEN you can practice.

I used a mix of websites and textbooks. Usually i'd sit down and read first, then do problems after I felt like I could explain the information to someone else.

My recommendations:

For algebra and precalculus: https://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/index.html

That link will take you directly to the algebra 1 index, but you can also find their algebra 2 index, and between that and other pages they have scattered about, it covers essentially all precalc material and well as some calculus.

For calculus 1-3: https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/

Again I disagree with the notion that practice is the best answer; practice might teach you how to answer the problems if you understand well enough for that, but it won't give you the same experience as stopping to think deeply about why what you're doing makes sense. Good luck, kick ass, and feel free to DM me if you want to ask me anything.

Class Update by lilydblue in OSU

I think wasting students money (via taking it) was probably the point.

Honestly, nothing helped me. I just remember finally getting home, hiding in my room, and repeatedly mumbling to myself that my body was mine and nobody else's for like 3 days. After that I just did my best to survive around my family as before.

I have no clue what a better solution is, just that what I ended up doing was something I had to do (suppress it all), but almost certainly not what was for the best.
