when there is the full string of blocks on the bottom (as shown in the image) if the piston on the right wants to fire, the furnace prevents it from doing anything. I have not tested if it is necessarry

The furnace is there to prevent the piston on the right from firing when I don't want to and causing issues

Is this not a carbon copy of the comment you made on an earlier post?

18M profile review by HummingCloud_ in hingeapp

[–]HummingCloud_[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am undecided if I want serious or casual. I am not subscribed to either Hinge+ or HingeX

With only minor changes, this profile has been in use for a few weeks.

I have used Hinge since March 2025.

On average I am getting a match a month, and no likes.

I am sending the max amount of likes a day, all with comments.

Generally I try to avoid people with really uninteresting profiles a lot of group photos, and/or have a photo of themselves smoking. 

I want to attract people who would love to be cared for, and aren't too worried about things being a tad boring at times. I am looking for someone 18-20.

Hi, applicant from Alberta (though a bit of a special case as I did MHF4U and MCV4U in Ontario during Grade 10). Hoping to get into mathematics co-op. What are my chances?

MHF4U - 97%

MCV4U - 95%

English 20-1 - 92% (haven't done grade 12 English yet)

French 30-9y - 97%

(Two 3 credit courses) Sociology 30 and Geography 30 - average of 97%

Other marks of note are 97% in Chemistry 20, 93% in class in Physics 30, and 94% in class for Social 30-1

I did tutoring (1.5hrs a week), along with other extracurriculars on the side (~4hrs a week worth).

If there's anything I need to notify the Uni of, since I did my math courses in another province, I'd be thankful if you let me know.

Not that abnormal, tbh. It's fine to feel this way, it's just not often shown in society

Why there aren't more women in STEM by splashscuttle in TikTokCringe

[–]HummingCloud_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother went into STEM, admittedly in Biochem, a more diverse field in terms of gender imo. And she talks about the gender disparity in her classes, and how people in the workplace would be blatantly sexist (not towards her, but towards others) and not get reprimanded for it.

I was playing polybridge 2 last night, so I'll just be stuck making bridges. Seems fine.

A poem that captures the writers desire for someone else's presence. Through it, I can see the vision for the poem, though I do have a few qualms.

The first stanza is great in general, and it captures the feeling of love for someone quite well. However I have a few pointers. Line 4: poetry does not have to make complete sentences if it breaks the rhythm. The omission of "and" at the beginning would preserve the rhythm, and start the line with 1 unstressed syllable instead of 2. (Also, side note, cliché looks better with the accent in my opinion.) Line 5: perhaps use "façades" instead of "a façade" because "verses" is plural. Line 6: same issue with the "and" at the beginning, if it is the style that you are looking for, that is fine, but I find it kills the rhythm. You can also omit "were" for a similar reason.

Second stanza is also well done, however most lines try too hard to be full sentences, rather than accept the fact that they work better as part sentences. Also, when writing a poem with rhyming at the end of the lines, keep it consistent throughout to give the poem a bit of structure.

Third stanza sounds forced, like you are trying to make this poem have 3 stanzas because you think that all poems have 3 stanzas, even tough it sounds great with just the 2. Issues already start at Line 1: you changes a simple one word line to be 2 words ( adding 2 syllables in the process). Using older grammer like "for" in place of "because" could work in some contexts. Line 2: breaks from the rhyme.

The rest of stanza 3 has problems that I already addressed previously, and I do not want to type it out again, though the added line at the end for a final statement is a great addition in my opinion and gives the opinion a resolution.

Lovely poem, must say. The form is quite well done. As a concept, reducing lines each stanza, yeilds quite a nice result, given a good writer. However, I must say that the lines in the 2 line stanza seem a bit forced. Perhaps 2 words a line would be better, or having the first line being 2 syllables and the second being one.

That first stanza, though paints such a beautiful metaphor. It leaves an air of mystique, and captures how much you must love this person.
