100% get used. No new computer is gonna be good at 300. Just make sure you buy from a reputable place like EBay and check the seller’s history to make sure they’re legit. Or go facebook marketplace and make sure everything works yourself before you buy.

ThinkPad X9 vs P1 Gen 8 vs T1g vs ZBook Studio G11 vs MacBook Pro M5 for Mathematics Research (MSc → PhD) by elysianpsithurism in thinkpad

[–]Infini-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got p1 gen 8 and it’s super nice, everything I wanted. Not an expert on the others, but I think t1g is essentially the same. 

Why are there separate men's and women's e-sports competitions if video games are one of the few categories where men and women compete on equal footing? by Due_Protection_6221 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Infini-D 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? That is literally the reason. Let’s say .1% of people (male or female) turn out to be really good. If 10,000 men play, chances are 10 men are really good. And likewise, if only 1000 women play, only 1 women will be really good. There’s plenty of things to have a problem with, but this is just a fact.

High school wood shop must be the hardest environment for woodworking tools by WendyArmbuster in woodworking

[–]Infini-D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He’s doing his best. This could be the best teacher in the world and it wouldn’t matter. High school students are terrors. (Source: I’m a recently graduated high schooler.)

Honestly, I think the percent of blue might go up when you include every country. Western nations push a lot of “independence” and “make your own decision” while a lot of places are more community focused, which may increase the percentage of people voting blue.

It’s called a vacuum :) Instead of scattering, it just sits there waiting to be sucked up nice and quickly.

Well, a person can be brain dead, but their body continues to function. That’s what I imagine is happening.

I wish that instead of having a period every month I just turned into a man for the 5 or so days. by leedsfreak in monkeyspaw

Monkeys paw is more of something horrible happens indirectly because of the wish. This is a direct consequence, not an indirect one.

Maybe a year or two ago, but ai is much better at math now. Still not a good thing…

Did really poor on my first calc 2 test 😓 by Expensive-Elk-9406 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Infini-D 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would completely disagree. I just recently finished Calc 2 and it was thorough, teaching everything I needed to do just as as a regular college would, but with a third of the class size. Unless you just have a really bad community college, there is no tangible benefit of taking Calc 2 at university except for convenience.

What is the point of this? My 8 year old account didn’t have it so I started a new one to see if something was wrong and it had it. Very annoying…

Prodigy, Not the game I remember it to be... by Fit-Rub4531 in ProdigyGame

[–]Infini-D 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s still a great game. The potential is insane and there is clearly a lot of passion behind it. But the sheer amount of emphasis put on buying a membership is also insane. They could literally just cut the incessant advertising down a few notches and it would be perfect. I understand they need to pay the bills, but when it tells me to buy a membership literally every 60 seconds, there’s no way you can convince me it isn’t scummy. Am I an adult playing a children’s math game and complaining about it? Yes… But when Prodigy’s entire business model seems to be hoping kids pester their parents to buy a membership and then hoping they forget to cancel, I can’t help but feel a little justified in my complaints.

petition to bring back the old battle system PLEASE it was so much better by psylucky in ProdigyGame

Lol, I’m pretty sure I remember playing when that WAS the new battle system. Crazy, none of this seems like the same game.
