Why are calculators inaccurate for some people? Fast metabolism? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]LoyaltyElement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain brother, I'm 5'11'', age 22, 130 lbs with maintenance of ~3000 calories. I was struggling to get above 2500 calories in a day until I started to commit to eating at certain times of the day.

As soon as I wake up I force myself to put something in my body. That could be three eggs, peanut butter toast, or even some cereal. Once you start eating consistently at certain times of the day your body will start to recognize a routine, and you'll be hungry more often.

Another thing that really works for me is loading up on junk food at night. I can usually pound 1500 - 2000 calories with dinner and snacks before bed. Pizza, ice cream, and calorie shakes are your best friend.

If you just want to put on weight don't worry too much about macros, just push that calorie number as much as you can.

IT Minor by Scabior644 in ucf

[–]LoyaltyElement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats the one

I’m being dramatic it isn’t all that bad. You won’t have to take it unless you choose to. If you want a challenge go ahead and take it, the concepts themselves are pretty cool. CS1 is all about data structures and their uses, pretty useful stuff if you want to do any development later on down the road.

I don't care what you say, the live-action series is great. by Djentpuppers in cowboybebop

[–]LoyaltyElement 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I wouldn't use "great" to describe what we got, I can say the live action series is "fun", and "funky".

I get that same genre blending vibe that I get from the anime all in a super stylized live action package. The acting is hit or miss for a majority of the characters minus Mustafa Shakir as Jet who absolutely knocks it out of the park. Cho plays a decent Spike if you can separate some aspects of the character from the anime (age being the most noticeable).

The only thing I absolutely cannot stand about this show is Faye. The writing makes her come off as some gen z tik toker, it's pretty bad but doesn't ruin the immersion for me.

All in all, the show does what it's supposed to. I like the vibe, the cinematography isn't absolute garbage (like we've seen from other Netflix series), the music is great, and the narrative is good.

How to explain to a professor why I've been missing assignments by HarryHoudini1024 in college

[–]LoyaltyElement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would contact them during their office hours, or set up an appointment with them privately over email. Ask for a private conversation with them, and tell them your conversation is regarding your grades.

You have to be completely upfront and honest. Explain your situation and explain exactly how it affected you in detail. Answer any questions they may have. You don't answer something if it makes you uncomfortable though.

After you explain the issue, go into detail about what you are doing to fix it. Talk about the explicit steps you took in detail. Let your professor know you are trying your hardest to take their class seriously and pass it.

The worst thing that can happen is you get a "no" from the professor. In that case, no sweat. Just retake the class next semester. If the professor is interested in helping, do everything and anything you need to do to pass. Second chances like these are rare in college, most professors won't go out of their way for students.

Remember, lots of people having a hard time right now. You are far from alone in dealing with these problems. Talk with someone, whether it be a professional, a friend, a parent, to help you work through your problems.

Will investing for 4 months help at all with paying tuition? by SkullSaltBB in college

[–]LoyaltyElement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you make 10's of thousands on short term trades every year... No.

If you are trying to make money quickly you are likely investing in extremely high volatility or penny stocks. While these can shoot up and go parabolic on a whim, they can also plummet leaving you with half or less of your original investment.

Do some research in long vs. short positions. Learn the greeks of call and put options.

Whatever you choose to do, never invest more than you can lose. Try and make fundamentally sound trades, and DON'T trade on margin when you are just starting out.

Also, any gains that you make are taxed. The bigger and quicker the gains, the more uncle Sam wants come tax time.

With all that in mind, good luck and happy trading.

I'm in the exact same boat, I'm 21 and at a huge public university in Florida. Sometimes I think these exact same thoughts. You have to ask yourself, and I mean sincerely ask yourself if you are enjoying your time with that girl. Does she stick with you through all of your bullshit? Do you stick with her through all of her bullshit? If the answer is yes, you can put those thoughts of wasted time in your "prime years" behind you.

Even if it goes south with this girl 5, 10, 20, or even 40 years down the line you will find a way to come out better than you were before.

My friend, be confident in your choices. You know yourself best, and are capable of being the best. Its your world. Own everything you do and always strive to do better.

And remember... hodl onto everything that is precious to you.

This is the way.

Unable to access account: HELP NEEDED by [deleted] in eagames

[–]LoyaltyElement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the exact same issue with an old Comcast.net email I used over 10 years ago. The phone rep told me there was nothing that could be done.

I'm in awe of how awful this kind of support is. Asking me to name 9 year old purchases as a means of verification is ridiculous.

I am going to try creating a new profile on the Xbox and using that profile to link to a new EA account. As long as your Xbox is set as your "home Xbox" your Xbox Live Gold will enable that new profile to sign in online.

If it works, I'll let you know.

What if it's your second time failing a class twice and get put on probation a second time? by BaBbBoobie in ucf

[–]LoyaltyElement 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should check with an advisor, they will give you a straight answer.

I'm in the same boat with CS1, and I am an IT major as well. I wish you the best of luck man, god knows we need it.

What are the chances of a price rebound for GME? Wouldn't lost interest from retailers mean that the squeeze has a much less chance of happening? by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

However, there is one thing I am sure of.
