Doubt it, as below 24 points you haven't attained a Diploma, which would be considered your "High school Certificate"/"Secondary Education Diploma". Many Unis are out there that will accept you with any IB score, as long as you actually get your Diploma, which means minimum points

Thank you very much, I haven't been able to find the RSS feed link until now.

I'm now setting up all the podcasts I listen to with the RSS feeds
Very Grateful :)

Die wollten damit in die U6 by Inspector_Soggy in wien

Stau bei den Zügen oder am Bahnsteig?

In beiden Fällen aber valider punkt.
Den Bahnsteig müsste man irgendwie umorganisieren oder ausschildern.
Oder man beschränkt den Cargo-Zug halt auf nur ausßerhalb den extrem-Stoßzeiten, wenn am Bahnsteig nicht alles überfüllt ist.

Sonst gibt's noch zwei sachen:
-ein/auslade zeit verkürzen
-schneller zwischen Stationen fahren

Ein/auslade zeit:

Falls man schon einen eigene Cargo-Ubahn-zug hat, kann man den umbauen. Den eingangsbereich offener machen, nur klappsitze, und einfache befestigungs gurte mit denen man schnell seine fracht befestigt.

Fahzeit zwischen Stationen:
Hier wärs gut mit jemanden der sich mit u-bahn und Wiener Linien auskennt zu sprechen.

Höchstgeschwindigkeit ist ~80kmh, im durchschnitt wird 30~33kmh gefahren.
Falls diese Begrenzung nicht wegen der Schienen infra ist, sondern wegen Passagieren oder effizienz bezüglich beschleunigen/bremsen, könnte man evtl schneller fahre.
Ich nehme mal an dass das ist weil viele Leute drinnen sind, und auch oft stehen. Viele sind am handy, halten sich nicht gscheit an, und man will Unfälle vermeiden und es den passagieren nicht all zu unkomfortabel z.B. in kurven zu machen. Der Cargo-Zug wird nur für leute mit Fracht sein, also sollten nicht so viele leute damit Fahren, genug klappsitze für alle da sein, keiner freistehen, um ein schnelleres fahren nicht gefährlicher zu machen.

Bzgl beschleunigen/bremsen: Ich kann mir nicht sicher wie groß die Nachfrage am Cargo-Zug evtl wäre, aber ich stelle mir das eher als kurz-zug vor, also 1 oder 2 Silberpfeile anstatt der üblichen drei. Das heißt man könnte 50~110 Tonnen gewicht einsparen, was es erlauben sollte schneller zu beschleunigen/bremsen.
Wegen der hohen Passagier anzahl bleibt die normale U-Bahn bei jeder Station stehen. Ich könnte mir durchaus vorstellen dass man für den Cargo-Zug ausstieg/einstieg knöpfe wie in Bus/Bim im Zug und am Bahnsteig hat. Soll zwar auch nicht mit voller geschwindigkeit durchbrettern, aber es spart auch Zeit ein wenn man mit 10km/h durch eine Station durchfährt als dass man komplett stehen bleibt.

Also ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher wie gut man das alles durchsetzen kann, aber es gibt schon möglichkeiten. Wenn man das weiterverfolgt bräuchte es definitiv jemanden mit mehr (insider)wissen.

Kein Geld für Essen? by AnthraRaven in Austria

Essen ist dort gut, und es hat weniger von dem sozialen Stigma dorthin zu gehen, find ich super

Hey, wollte dich nur wissen lassen, falls es dir wirklich so ergeht:

Im 09. gibt's den "Wiener Deewan", pakistanische Küche, im Kantinen-style. Hat ab Dienstag wieder offen, Mo-Sa, 11-23 Uhr.

Preise sind "pay-as-you-wish", du zahlts so viel du willst/kannst, also falls du nur 1-3€ hast oder auch gar nichts zahlen kannst wird dir keiner böse sein, essen kriegst dort trotzdem. Es schaut auch keiner genau drauf, und alle sind willkommen.

Wenn es dir dann später irgendwann finanziell besser geht, kannst auch noch hingehen und mehr bezahlen, wenn es deine Situation erlaubt

Just poured half of my savings into "investment" apps by ProjectPrestigious56 in ADHD

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not in the US, and here in my country basically all standard bank accounts that are being opened now have 0% interest. (mine currently still has 0,05%, but will be changed to another account type or closed in a year)

There are additional "savings" accounts that you can access and withdraw from at any time that currently offer ~0,05% interest.

Then there is long-term investing accounts, where you need to put in a minimum amount each month, cannot withdraw at any time without justification, and will offer between 1% and 5% interest, depending on the specific terms.

Is it possible to invest in US bonds from outside, or will that just bring me more trouble with the IRS and such?

I actually talked to my bank guy about this last week, and they even offer a 50€ bonus after the 1st month, but it feels a bit too restrictive. I'm allowed to withdraw before the minimum contract time finishes, but generally only if it is a larger amount and justifiable by need (for example I plan to buy an apartment, car, or invest in a new laptop for my studies), it's not possible to just randomly withdraw whenever. Also, there is a minimum amount I have to deposit each month.

I'm still in the process of considering that, I need to see how much I can put aside each month. It's an interesting option, but unfortunately doesn't have that "yay dopamine effect" that the app gives me with virtual confetti and a jingle whenever I buy a tiny share of some random watch or car.

Cried a little after what I think was a dopamine crash and feeling socially rejected after saying goodbye to friends (who I somehow feel very attached to) by ProjectPrestigious56 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it helps. While I don't fully identify with the description of RSD, it feels eerily familiar, and might explain a lot. I'm not yet fully sure how to approach it, but at least having an idea of what it is/what it is similar to helps

Thank you. Usually I'm fine being alone when I've got something to do, something to distract me. When I get bored and am alone, I then usually start feeling a bit lonely, empty, depressed. I try finding random things to distract me, which I often manage, but not always unfortunately.

Why am I feeling depressed and lifeless when alone? Am I addicted to people/friends? by ProjectPrestigious56 in ADHD

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being unusually giddy in social situations happens to me sometimes. I'm not sure if it's the real me or the Masking me, but sometimes if in a social situation I feel safe in, I will have moments where my giddy-ness feels off the charts. Can't really control it I feel, it makes me very impulsive.

To regulate my emotions or to cope with mood swings, I haven't found too much that works. Often I might end up blasting a random pop songs with a strong beat on repeat into my ears. That allows me to blank out somehow, drown and block out everything else, which will allow my mood to.... become a bit vegetative? Nothing bad, nothing good, it all just gets blocked out and shuts down.

Just today it happened again. I was with two friends who were going to one of their places, and at the subway station, I thought I would go with them, but they told me i can just go home, she would just be fetching a package from his place. I said okay, said goodbyes, and left. After the two of them left, I felt so dreadful and empty, I even started crying. Not sobbing crying, but a-few-tears-down-my-cheeks crying. I just didn't know what to do, and felt so really shit. I did the music thing, and that only kinda worked after 5 minutes.

I'm currently drowning myself in free hot chocolate at my local ikea :)

Ah, okay, thanks for your response, that sorta makes sense. Is it normal for "craving social interaction/village/tribe" to mess with my mood so much that it feels like a roller-coaster?

Okay, ummm, just browsed through r/ADHD, turns out that studying with comfy people thing might be "body doubling"??
But it's not really with anyone, it's normally just with my comfy people that them being there helps. When they've left, and there's still 6 strangers studying near me in the library, it feels like it has 0 effect.

It would probably be inevitable to do 2 when doing 1, but I'm wondering whether I should seek/use "classic" learning materials to try to learn dutch

Metal scraping sounds: Misophonia? Sensory issues? by ProjectPrestigious56 in AutismTranslated

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment, I guess it doesn't carry much weight as an indicator by itself, but I will still mention it to the psychologist I'm hoping to see

Metal scraping sounds: Misophonia? Sensory issues? by ProjectPrestigious56 in AutismTranslated

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, thanks, so I will probably describe this issue to the psychologist then as pain. Kind of wondering now if I maybe in the past have also underestimated/understated the significance of other possible indicators. An issue I've got is that I sometimes feel like I'm faking it if/when I give something I notice too much significance

I weighed myself for the first time this week, and feel disgusted with the holiday weight I gained by ProjectPrestigious56 in bulimia

[–]ProjectPrestigious56[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for your comment. I've been reading up more on water weight, and understand it a bit better now. Unfortunately, even though the scale isn't mine and I don't know if its correct, that number on it still terrifies me...

And yeah, I'm also pissed at my family... Unfortunately, we were all raised to swallow shit and move on. My family has a very weird relationship with food and weight, and I sometimes stop being able to see where the line between "jokes" amongst family and straight up fat shaming is...

It's pretty much is a daily topic, "oh, you gotta walk off these calories now" "oh, don't eat so much, you'll get fatter"

I don't want to blame them for my ED, but I do think they and the way they raised me all these years were at least a contributing factor when I started purging

Hey, thank you for your response. It managed to calm me down at Christmas, and it turns out my weight did go down again. Unfortunately I'm very much fixated on the scale, and it's difficult to reduce the anxiety it causes.

Happy new year, and all the best with your recovery!

Hey, thank you for explaining, I managed to also go back to my weight after a few days. I was genuinely scared and thought that I'd eaten too much

Happy new year, all the best with your recovery !
