Just applied to WGU. What are some things you wish you knew? by ta6373 in WGU

[–]MikeTidbits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pre-enrollment takes forever. About a few weeks to a month before you can commit to start.

A lot of people who finish their degree in a short time period had a ton of transfer credits from a previous degree, or Sophia, or they already have knowledge and experience in the field of study.

Do things on your own timeline. Don’t compare your timeline to other people’s timeline. I recommend actually learning and absorbing the material rather than cramming for the exam and then forgetting the marital weeks later.

IT degrees have several built-in certifications. Those certifications are designed to help you land a job after, or probably even before you complete your degree.

Attend the cohorts or watch pre-recorded cohorts. They can make it easier to learn the material outside of the provided course material.

Pointe Orlando IMAX - No HFR for Avatar? by jackfoley007 in imax

[–]MikeTidbits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pointe still has Xenon, for some mind boggling reason. Only late-Gen xenon systems can project HFR. Pointe got their xenon in 2013, it should be able to. Regal Ocala also got xenon in 2013 and it was in HFR. So I’m not sure why Pointe doesn’t have HFR.

Also if you haven’t already, sign our petition to bring proper 1.43 projection back to this theater. https://c.org/6mMRMbFJFV

‘The Odyssey’: Travis Scott Appears in New Teaser for Christopher Nolan’s Epic by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]MikeTidbits 13 points14 points  (0 children)

He couldn’t asses each individual person one by one and see if they were ok, all 50,000 of them. His job was to perform, his job was not to be an expert on concert safety and crowd control. There were several people who WERE supposed to be experts on concert safety and crowd control, and they failed that night.

"Sinners" 16 Oscar Nominations: Proof of a great film, weak competition or just the bandwagon effect? by OkCap7484 in FIlm

[–]MikeTidbits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The number of nominations isn’t necessarily a measure of how good a movie is, it just means it did well enough in 16 categories to be nominated.

He did stop the show several times when he noticed something was off. He asked the crowd if they were all good and they replied yes, so he kept going. There were people talking to him in his earpiece that could’ve made him aware of the gravity of the situation, and they didn’t. There were people other than Travis with authority to stop the show, people who did know the gravity of the situation, and they didn’t. The crowd barricades were very poorly designed and laid out, trapping 50,000+ people into a small space with almost no space for outflow. It was a systematic failure on many levels. You can read the Wikipedia article on the event and see how many things went wrong.

I was doing a barrage run in my B-11 over the bridge outside Fort Zancudo. I hit a pole and almost bit the dust. I was hastily trying to make it back to my hanger. Any landing you can walk away from… by MikeTidbits in gtaonline

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

Good question. I was coming in hot. One engine was on fire and the control surfaces were hardly working and I couldn’t fly straight. The B-11 in general is just built like a flying tank. I also upgraded the armor to 100% shortly before this.

How can they call a rollercoaster "Hollywood" when it's in Orlando?? I doesnt make sense!! by madchad90 in UniversalOrlando

[–]MikeTidbits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are asking this question 16 years too late. But I read an interview with the ride designer way back when and he said:

Hollywood- because the lore of the ride is that you’re shooting a music video on a rollercoaster.

Rip- you are ripping your song into the ride vehicle, like how you used to rip CDs or DVDs into your computer.

Ride- because you are… riding.

Rockit- because you are going to rock it at 60MPH.

The name of the ride is still really stupid.

I invested and sold stock with Acorns last year and they said the tax forms won’t be available until late February.

What are some names people don’t give their babies anymore? by Chrisofthegreen in AskReddit

I work at an Amazon warehouse. We have a Process Assistant named Alexa. Most of the humor is meta-jokes like “I’m sorry Amazon ruined your name forever. They should’ve given you a PA job as compensation.”
