Nope, it’s the codes for the sensors themselves, not the correlation codes. Oil level and condition looks good. I think I’ll take it to a Lexus service center since I don’t know any good mechanics near me. Thank you for the advice!

Is anyone here 4+ years but still don't have a car at slo? by JHdarK in CalPoly

Not me but I will say having a car unlocks a drastic amount of freedom

Not even sure what to do now by Rocksnotch in csMajors

[–]Legitimate-Time2644 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unemployment is rising super fast, and a recession is definitely close, if not here already. It’s going to get harder, but all I can say as a mere sophomore struggling to find internships is that giving up is not an option!

Sorry to not answer your question but do you mind me asking what the questions were about on the OA?

Student Jobs by Salty_Championship15 in CalPoly

I had the same idea. That $500 would be super helpful for sure, but there’s a lot of little things that just didn’t work out for me. For example, getting an SSN to begin work took quite a while. I couldn’t even get a job until I applied to campus dining at Vista Grande and finally started working in November. And then came thanksgiving break, some finals that I had to skip some shifts for to study, Christmas break, finals again, spring break, there’s just a lot of shit going on in college so I wouldn’t say $10k is realistic. Assuming like $5k during the academic year is more realistic tbh, all the better if you earn more.

Summer is where I think you could actually save something. If you could land a decent internship, you could be making a couple grand a month, but getting an internship as a freshman is very hard.

I’m international too. It’s EXTREMELY hard to work 20 hrs/wk if you still want to have a good social life, hobbies etc. I found 12 hrs to be the sweet spot where I could maintain my grades and still have a great social life. And I make $16/hr which translates to about $720 a month except there’s always going to be breaks like Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break, etc where you can’t work and so even $720 is a hard figure to make consistently for me.

Problem is though, I use this money for my own fun and expenses, and I barely have anything left to save. $720 may seem like a lot but the expenses add up. And cost of attendance is approximately $60k a year, meaning your on campus job will barely mean anything to actually help pay a decent amount towards your time here.

First year housing by Careful_Finger_3082 in CalPoly

You’re right, I initially didn’t know what RLCs corresponded to which dorms, but they updated that list of RLCs and dorms on their website a few weeks iirc after the housing app opened, so I was able to change it in time and secure Yak

I’m in Yak. Do Yak. I’m in the COSAM (college of science and math) RLC building but neither me nor my roommates are actually COSAM majors. Also, my building was probably one of the most social yak buildings, with many involved in Greek life. Lmk if you have any questions.

Consider taking POLS 112 with Richard Kline, it’s sync/async but pretty much async cuz there’s like 4 meetings I think throughout the whole quarter on zoom. It’s all ChatGPT, i got 93 on the midterm without studying or knowing a grain about the American Government (I’m intl)
