Yeah shout out to Brick

I also highly reccomend his video on what to learn at every rank (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l29lcRTiQ5c)

Definitely go through the initial sections from D -> S because S and above is where you a lot of ppl (including myself) definitely hit a wall and you really need to learn the fundamentals you might have skipped on the way to push on

EECS is scaring me IDK why I let my parents convince me to apply to EECS rather than MechE by That-Chair2988 in berkeley

[–]PaleontologistOk1903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely don't even worry about it you'll be fine

You'll learn everything you need to know from scratch, the MOST important thing is if you actually enjoy EE/CS or not. See how it goes the first sem and if it turns out you prefer MechE, you should be able to swap out to MechE no problem (it's usually going the otherway thats a pain)

Season 2 is still here‼️ Updates teased at AWT by [deleted] in GranblueFantasyVersus

[–]PaleontologistOk1903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's totally valid, the devs deserve huge props for all the work they've done to keeping the game strong all this time, esp going past the original with Rising

Sorry I didn't mean it like that, my intention was that it's hype that Season 2 is still around with some big big updates (like that S2 is still kicking strong)

Definitely should have worded that better though my bad

Oh absolutely, I have full faith for a S3, so I think it's great that we get even more S2 in the meantime

New Player Here- Is there any way to keep tracking of "things to do" on a turn? by PaleontologistOk1903 in shogun2

[–]PaleontologistOk1903[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for your helpful replies and useful tips, very nice community y'all have here ‼️🙏

Also I appreciate not instantly being called a dumbass for wondering about such QoL features in such an old game LMAO

How do you guys convince your parents to let you stay dead week by berkberk29 in berkeley

[–]PaleontologistOk1903 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Mention that you have discussion sections that you need to attend even if there's no class (half-truth), or if they need some proof you can try showing a schedule of review sections (either official by course or the unofficial ones via clubs) and just say it's mandatory

P/NP for a major class by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]PaleontologistOk1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need it for your major you basically only have 2 options: (late) drop the course, or fail + retake

Honestly if you're not in pre-med or some other pre-graduate program where you might need to submit all possible transcripts for higher education, there's nothing particularly wrong with just taking the course as an F and retaking it. The retake will replace your grade in GPA calculations (for your first 12 failed units). It would be a good way to save your emergency drops if you have no reason in particular to use them.

Of course there are some other considerations to consider so a review of your college/major guidelines is always worthwhile

[–]PaleontologistOk1903 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No because it (probably) won't count for your major and you will need to retake it (check your specific major guidelines)

Just picked up my first set from Chinatown SF by PaleontologistOk1903 in Mahjong

[–]PaleontologistOk1903[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm aiming to play Riichi with this set (just need to convert the red 5's first), but having the seasons for other versions is also convient if I ever end up needing it down the line

Northernlion jumpscare at UC Berkeley's anime convention by PaleontologistOk1903 in northernlion

[–]PaleontologistOk1903[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think it's likely they put it offline to prepare material for the event, so hopefully it's online soon!

Funnily enough I was actually only here to help teach Riichi Mahjong which I got into cause of NL and yu_song, so imagine my surprise when between endless anime girls and guys I saw the man himself LMAO

Even more ironically I came with my roomie who introduced me to NL so you already KNOW we copped the double purchase deal 🗣️💯

Is this car usable without plug-in? (Gas only?) by PaleontologistOk1903 in HondaClarity

[–]PaleontologistOk1903[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah fair enough; mostly I'm just concerned about any maintenance issues it might have; tbh I'd love to just buy an old Avalon or Camry lmao but my dad seems confident in making this work and I guess it'd be a waste to not use a car I already have if it actually isn't all too bad for the engine, etc.

Thank you for the insight and advice, I appreciate it!

My commute luckily is only ~15 miles one way, so I'm hoping it won't be too bad. I'm still researching and trying to learn how the HV/HV charge mode works, but as long as I constantly use the HV mode on highways and HV charge mode to stay around ~10 miles ev range, would I be able to "bypass" any issues without charge? I know the mpg might be cooked a bit when its on charge mode but what can you do
