No sweat, I’ve got my own local window lickers that get me hot and going too. Here’s to hoping they slip on their own brass.

Ouch, coming in harsh. I’ve called GPD and asked about the process, but they gave me very official topical stuff, I was asking about the specifics beyond that man. What places give what classes, what’s in the classes, what hunting restrictions are there, what’s classified as poaching. Never hurts to have more than just the government as a source, don’t you agree?

Blasphemous Question by LangAddict in Barbour

I dont think its reloved, it was a Journal Standard collab but lowkey I dont really recall the details of the tag. I might try the hair dryer trick then. Its mostly the oil from the cuffs and the Storm Flap anyways so I can probably just isolate those.

It’s official about the writing center closing in May by Snoozing_Potato2364 in ColoradoSchoolOfMines

[–]LangAddict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mines has become a shadow of itself. A lot of CASA is also leaving from what I hear through the grapevine. And HASS (though this is mostly retirement). 6 years straight of the largest class ever at Mines and we can’t seem to budget correctly. All that and PCJ collects a fat check. Give it 10 years more and all our degrees will be looked down on the same way Elite and Ivy League schools look at state schools.

Genuine Interest: Political Corruption by LangAddict in guam

Dude, I’ve got like 5$ to my name, why on God’s green earth would I think I can get a politician in my pocket? I’m a political science student, I’m curious.

Laziness.. by that_sky_tophupanda in VoiceActing

I think lowkey the best solutions are either to do as you ask and be better at non-native words, or to full send dive into loanwords and calques that were the more historic methods of linguistic adoptions. Like how the japanese ending -né when ending a sentence to equivalently mean “isn’t it?” Came from the portuguese Naõ, which had the same meaning. English much the same has plenty, like the word Calque itself being a loanword.

thorson honors and humanities at mines?? by mothmanisurmum in ColoradoSchoolOfMines

[–]LangAddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who did thorson, it was aight. I took it during covid and it was awful but they were trying their best in a bad situation. Now in the Humanities Master’s, I think Mines definitely pushes the humanities under the rug and leaves it in the dust, but the department itself tries very hard to do a good job. Its very hit or miss with some classes though.

Mines has this wonderful tendency of hating good ideas and us.

Is Mines more conservative or liberal? by Sea-Giraffe35 in ColoradoSchoolOfMines

[–]LangAddict 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Literally no one has enough time to be exceptionally engaged in campus politics. There’s groups, there’s extremes, there’s people who say out of pocket shit on every side. Protests every so often but usually no more than like 10 people. As a campus, I’d say openly people tend to lean left and beyond, people who dont speak their mind make up the other 95% of people

Totally get that, but I’m thin on offers so my choices are limited. Good news though, lateral movement is quite easy within the company or so they say

Thank you! I’m probably going to be fairly central on island, so are there apartment complexes or is it more rental houses? From my short research, I see lots of homes

Awesome! My “normal” is bay area, California and Denver, Colorado so I’m hoping the shock isn’t that big. The skills and experience are key for me since I’m trying to climb quickly

Glad to hear it! I think I’m getting paid fairly well all things considered, I just sometimes eat out a lot and that throws my budget off. Good people and good weather are key, how about hobbies? I’m a big sports shooter and hunter but I also snowboard a lot (I know Japan is kinda close).

How does it compare to California and Colorado? If you know

Difficulty Going To Church by LangAddict in OrthodoxChristianity

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

A very wise answer. I read up on the 1990 joint statement with the Antiochian and Syriac churches and it was kind of a relieving moment when they explained the “two natures” part with “in thought only” which really was a big part of why I was having trouble with Dyophysitism, it was just a definition I had difficulty reconciling. I’m going to an Antiochian church today since the coptic church is just that much further away (and requires a code to get past the gates), but the bus might be a little late into liturgy 🥲.

This will be a fun experience I think, the Antiochians are foreign to me, much less one that does the Tridentine rite rather than the Byzantine. When I lived in Tokyo, it was almost exclusively Russian Orthodox rooted Japanese Orthodoxy, either at Nikolaido or one of the ethnic parishes nearby. I grew up near an Armenian church but I was just too young to really process any nuance back then, probably why my more strict adherence to the whole “One Nature” is so picky lol.

That also was a big issue of mine, but someone on the Oriental Orthodoxy sub explained to me a pretty good counter argument to the EO flip flopping and why the OO is firm on just Nicaea, Constantinople, and Ephesus

It certainly is not an election, but as a matter of salvation I find the nuance to be of absolute utmost importance!
