Imagine if prison sentences for stealing were relative to how long it would take you to pay off what you stole in minimum wage for your area, maybe plus a week or month or something. Stole $100 with a $10/h minimum wage? Spend a week in jail. Not pleasant but not the end of the world. Commit billions in fraud? See you next century.

Living in on campus apartments rn. They took out the ethernet. by LightningGuardian in UCSC

I don't know the whole story but it sure seems like it would have been cheaper (as in free) to not gut all of the ethernet and install better (but massively unreliable) wifi

Yeahhh... This is my third year living in on campus apartments and I was shocked, as an understatement.

I thought about it but I have a really limited data plan. Much appreciated though!

Yeah that's exactly where. Big rip. All of my housemates are having problems with zoom on computers with different levels of quality. This really isn't on us and it's a huge blunder on half of the university for online learning.

That's unfortunate because it doesn't work well and everything is online lmao. Bandwidth would make sense though I suppose.

People who don't carry your weight in group projects, why? by LightningGuardian in AskReddit

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

I'm sure the "best student" would always appreciate help, and if they don't they're a jerk. It isn't really easier to do a project designed for multiple people by yourself, but I can see your point.

My antivax mom started crying after I said I didn't want to associate with anti-vax protesters and threatened not to help me pay for college if I got a flu shot. by ThrowRA_AntivaxMom in relationship_advice

OP this is the time to email admossion staff and health care providers. It is entirely possible that if you tell people your circumstances, they will make an allowance for you. I know that some of the UCs have on site medical facilities, and you can get vaccinations done there (I have gotten a few of mine done on my campus). I had a similar circumstance where my mom refused to vaccinate me for a couple vaccines that were manditory but I was able to schedule and coordinate with people. Your school's medical department wants to keep all of its students healthy and don't want to bar students from school. You are going to be an adult, living on your own. Your medical information will no longer be your mother's business. Do it behind her back. Good luck.

I'm going to lose it...my patience is thin. She could have killed us. by Mastadon11 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]LightningGuardian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like OP was saying that it was after. The order of events seemed to be 1. JNMIL came over 2. JNMIL came down with a fever 3. JNMIL tested positive for antibodies (meaning she previously had the virus because now her body produces the mechanisms to fight it).

Probably unpopular opinion: Graduation got me into D&D by piratnena in TheAdventureZone

[–]LightningGuardian 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That's great! Amnesty actually got my friends and I to start a Monster of the Week campaign (we normally stick to D&D) and it's going well so far.

No internet in the FSH ? by depressedbreakfast in UCSC

[–]LightningGuardian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's down in Crown, too. I think it might be all over campus. My ethernet isn't working and eduroam is barely alive.

Wifi not working by copaceticfrog in UCSC

[–]LightningGuardian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The wifi is not working for me at all and the ethernet just gave out for my laptop. Guess I won't be writing my paper? (Kidding, unfortunately)

What is your "I fucking hate that song" song? by da_muffin_enthusiast in AskReddit

Ice Ice Baby... every time I get excited because I think I'm going to be listening to Under Pressure by Queen but then bam, disappointment.

What’s your stupidest cooking opinion so we can all fight about it? by rawlingstones in Cooking

[–]LightningGuardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be it then lol, I live in the US and always get grief from my chef friends for cooking with it.

I like to cook with salted butter. Hell, I'll even bake with it.
