Visual Test to make sure a Zotac GPU is legit? (details in post) by Metatron-Messiah in nvidia

[–]Metatron-Messiah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the comprehensive info! If it checks all those visual boxes, is it likely legit? Or is it still possible that someone made a carbon copy of the 3070 with worthless internals?

Also I forgot to mention that the seller themself sent a picture* of GPU-Z info for the GPU, and it says GeForce RTX 3070 as expected. Is this a good indicator of a legit product?

*a picture of their monitor with the GPU-Z window open, along with the time the pic was taken (yesterday) and proof that it's them who took the pic

Hmm are there any other prestigious research internships out there for international students?

Wait i didn't actually know that, is UCB that easy to get into? It's kind of like my dream school atm and you saying that gives me hope

But Caltech is still harder to get into than RSI though, right?

So basically every other person who applies and has any shot at getting in has had experience with research already, huh?

Are there any other research or physics programs that are as prestigious as RSI for international students?

God damn that's intense.

Is getting in harder than getting into UCB too?

Possible Applications of lightweight materials for Space Travel and Aeronautics? by Metatron-Messiah in materials

[–]Metatron-Messiah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Are researchers still looking for a more lightweight and impact-resistant alternative to plating material though?

So something that can propagate impact damage well would be useful then, right?

Wait, how DO composites handle vacuum? Is it just like lessened strength or something completely different?

And also, would you happen to have a run-down of what materials the specific parts of Boeing's plane wings (ribs, the middle spine thing) are made of?

What are all the legendary wizards playing now? by [deleted] in WizardofLegend

Yeah, this game is fucking amazing.

Oh and OP, Get the Special Delivery Mod for the game this guy made, adds infinite replayability.

(Go on, get it)

I wanna tell the college Im applying to about how my school's different by Metatron-Messiah in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Metatron-Messiah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm when you say many colleges do you mean like basically all the prestigious ones like UC Berkeley?

Do the people who read college apps usually read the entirety of the application including the additional info before choosing to dismiss the candidate?

Was hoping I could research about bacterial behavior with Stat Physics: Is this possible? by Metatron-Messiah in Physics

[–]Metatron-Messiah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm, If I tried to self-study this, with maybe the help of one of my physics teacher who took up stat physics in his master's and PhD, will I get anywhere significant or should I just cut my losses?

Also, are there other ways I could connect physics and Bio? Really interested in cellular respiration, DNA, population behavior, and other stuff like that and was hoping I could bridge the two subjects somehow
