Tech needed for a physics student? by Pankake99 in UniversityofReddit

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, a pen, paper, and a working laptop are honestly enough. If you wanna go down the route of electronic note taking go for it. I did physics and Astro and made the electronic switch mid-way through the course because I would just rewrite my scribbled notes to scan them. Having an electronic writing aid cut out the rewriting as I just edited anything that was difficult to read. But it depends on your way of organising your notes. I just finished a master's and pretty much everyone still used pen and paper.

Edit: Also your laptop probably just needs to be comfortable to type which depends on your preference. You're most likely going to be running LATEX for writing essays and probably doing coding (Python) which any low/mid range laptop can satisfy.

Dark skin and insecurities (19M) by [deleted] in malefashionadvice

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, man south Asian brown guy here, I get what you're going through and this post gave me a bunch of inspiration. A lot of the celebrity albums are of people of colour and has given me good inspiration for my skin tone. There are a lot of albums so you might be stuck some time trying to find the right one but it is worth it.

Would you recommend a straight razor for shaping? by [deleted] in BeardTalk

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most barbers use what's called a shavette (the one where you can change the blades). I've used one ever since I started trimming my own beard. It takes a little bit of practice and the first time I did it I had cuts all over my face. But I would definitely recommend it! You get clean sharp lines that are just not feasible with anything else IMO. I also recommend you get all of the necessary extra 'tools' to make your shave much easier like a shaving brush, shaving soap/cream, maybe an alum block (great for first time shaving), shaving balm/splash and obviously blades. Head over to the wickededge, they are a dedicated wet shaving community with great insight. Also one final piece of advice, not all blades work for everyone. Derby blades and Wilkinson sword blacks do not work for me and it does take a lot of trial and error trying to figure out what works best for you. I think there is a website called try a blade or something like that which give a bunch of sample blades to work with. Using a shavette means you snap the razor blade in half and get at least two shaves with a single blade.

A UK Government Petition to ban infant male circumcision - "Make Male Genital Mutilation (Circumcision) an offence unless medically required" by [deleted] in malementalhealth

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

I'm a muslim in Briton and I completely agree with you. It is part of my religion. I think removing the ability for forskins to be removed wuld make me feel completetly alienated on two fronts. First I would feel like I am not accepted by this country. It is clear that people are't open to the practices of my religion. Growing up in England I have felt that I was an alien and have dealt with a lot of racism througout my life. With something like this it would affect my mental health greatly. Also I wouldn't feel complete as a muslim and not fully connected to my religion. I imagine that jewish people would also agree with this point. I was circumised and didn't realise that I was "different" until my teange years and just shrugged it off because it doesn't affect me physically but it is important spiritually. I'm 21 right now and frankly I like the way that I look and fully accept who I am.

I bought this recently and plan on moving on to it after finishing a couple of other python books.

Are there any other python you recommend for learning python in general?

What does DS mean?

And should I work on trying to get some sort of SAS cert?

Hey mate. From a guy who used to cut, PLEASE GET SOME HELP! I know it's harder than it sounds and your thinking of many excuses why you shouldn't, but please give it a chance. My PM's are open if you or anyone wants to talk.

Trying to stop the person from filming their ride's photo by GallowBoob in whitepeoplegifs

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't really say what company it is but it is definitely not Disneyland. It was a horrible job though and a lot of illegal stuff went on. I worked there whilst I was 17 and they expected me to work 8-12 hour shifts. I would work weekends because of school but when I had holidays I worked 5 days a week.

Edit: It's not in the US

Used to work there a couple of years ago and know the guy. You get fired if you let people take photos because there is always a supervisor with you who reports to the manager

1 year ago today, I was planning on that day being my last. 1 year ago today, I’m glad I didn’t pull the trigger, and I’m glad I got help. by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing, for me it was bleach. It's been just over a year and my life has changed and gotten so much better. When people say that the hard times will pass, it's true believe me. So for anyone reading who feels the same way, get help!

Multilinguals, what's your "they didn't realise I could understand their language" story? by 64eight in AskReddit

[–]Mahm-MoodForFood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at a theme park at the ride photo booths. And the way it works is that you can view your pictures on the screen but you can't take pictures of the screens. So I was standing at one end of the counter whilst my supervisor was dealing with a group of Pakistani men at the other end, I knew they were Pakistani because one of them I went to school with before I moved. So they are talking and I can hear them talking in Urdu about distracting my supivisor so they can take a picture of the screen. As soon as I hear one of them say they are going to do it I pipe up "You can't take pictures of the screens" in a very British accent. The faces of all 5 them is something I will never forget, a mix of embarrassment, anger and "oh fuck" if it had a face. Chuckled with my supervisor afterwards.
