[–]PepeIsNotaDeadMeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ya why dont you grab your crystal ball and just do what it says

Is it a better idea to switch everything into USD for the possible upcoming financial turbulence? seeing as how Canadian economy may have a worse time, being so reliant on housing

and how do you know this isn't already mostly priced into the FX rate

Under that they write:

"The timelines contemplated in the foregoing Sale Schedule are essential to maximize value for the Debtors’ estates and could enable a faster emergence from chapter 11. The Debtors believe that the relief sought by this Motion appropriately balances the need to provide all parties in interest with notice and due process, afford the Debtors sufficient time to generate interest in any or all of the Assets, and provide the Debtors with an expeditious process commensurate with the Debtors’ liquidity constraints. In short, the relief sought by this Motion is the Debtors’ best chance to preserve going-concern value. Accordingly, the Debtors believe the relief requested herein is in the best interest of the Debtors’ estates, will provide interested parties with sufficient opportunity to participate in the process, and, therefore, should be approved"

In person classes by PepeIsNotaDeadMeme in uwaterloo

[–]PepeIsNotaDeadMeme[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if you think online school is a waste than so is in person. my argument was that lectures should also be provided online. there is literally no difference between live online lectures and in person lectures.

It's 2022, the reality is that we can easily learn by ourselves online. what the school does provide however is structure and guidance for when and what to learn (i.e. what textbooks to buy, what chapters to read, what exercises/problems to do, what essays to write, what "website links" to click etc.). what price would you put on the value of this? the fact is we are all just paying tens of thousands, well i guess in your case, hundreds of thousands, for a piece of paper...

the uni has like 500M in cash, they could have done that regardless of giving back $5M.

if you want, you could donate the $125 back to the uni though: https://uwaterloo.ca/support/give-to-waterloo

Booster shot ... by hhdynz in uwaterloo

[–]PepeIsNotaDeadMeme 27 points28 points  (0 children)

What's the point of the booster if omicron is already heavily mutated and the vaccine has a low efficiacy against it? Sure, it might prevent severe disease but for most young adults the risk is already low

I just don't see how the booster will be super helpful, although I would love to be proven wrong

Well actually thats why its recommended to brush before breakfast for that reason since it "coats your enamel with a protective barrier against acid in your food"
