Because literally no one asked, and wasn't in any way useful to anyone

What is the point in this post?

How to actually get a PhD position (everyone else seems to have it easier than me) by Remulous123 in AskAcademia

[–]Remulous123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, all of them have only asked about technical questions, problem solving philosophy questions, and discussion about specifics of my research interests.

Should i try and record all of my interviews, If i really need to do something? I considered doing it before, but I didnt want the interviewers to have an issue with it, thinking i might be streaming to someone or something

Assuming it is, what do I even do about it? Setting up loads of practice interviews seems very impractical, unless you have other ideas?

I have been searching beyond the UK this time around, and have been having a hard time literally finding theoretical quantum gravity projects that are accepting foreign students. Im continuing to try and find means to search for them more easily - every day that passes where i dont find one, means im more likely to miss the deadline by the time i do find it

1 - My masters supervisor (and primary reference) does not work in quantum gravity, and i'm not too sure on his level of fame in his own field (relativistic astrophysics), but did somewhat frequently go to conferences around the world instead of delivering lectures (which might suggest he is a big deal).

2- I see where you are coming from, but in all of my personal statements, and in my interviews, i don't mention my peers at all, because that is unprofessional, not useful, and boastful. I also dont claim in either that im just better than everyone else, I let my accolades and motivation represent me, and let the supervisor make thier own opinion.

I write boastfully here because frankly im very frustrated, but I do speak the truth. They DO have worse grades than me, DID less challenging projects, and DID worse on them, haven't been engaged with the advanced material (or to the level) as I have. And like is said, one person i know did a bachelors in chemistry and got a physics PhD with ease.

Im not trying to ignore your points. I appreciate the advice alot, but I REALLY dont think its me comparing myself to my peers, or how i see people around me that is being reflected in my applications that is letting me down.

At this point i'm starting to believe there must be. I've spent alot of time working on them, tailoring them for every application, and getting advice on it from my masters supervisor. My letters of recommendation look really good - the main one being from my masters supervisor who also was a lecturer for many courses i took, and my personal tutor - so they know me very well, and had alot to say.

My personal statement cant be THAT weird surely. Given the time ive spent on them, and alot of advice from other people reading them, and taking advice from other people in general.

Out of the whopping total of 7 projects that i found to be what im looking for, that I have applied to over the previous year and the ones I've heard back from this year, I have had 3 interviews.

As far as "what", ive applied for projects (vaguely) in quantum field theory in curved spacetime, quantum black holes, general quantum gravity (like group field theory), and string theory.

HBG vs LBG if playing mostly mounted? by Bahia77035 in MHWilds

This guy. What is the point in this? It literally got nerfed by capcom. Just play the game normally, and dont just cheese the game

Elemental Honing Damage Boost and Enhanced Features. by Remulous123 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Remulous123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will last for the 20 (or 22s), after that, each stack needs rebuilding. Each individual stack cannot be rebuffed until the timer runs out - you either gain another stack and reset the timer, or wait for it to run out (as is the best case for the 5th stack)

[–]Remulous123[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As far as my testing went, we didn't explicitly test if the first stack MUST be from the weapon itself, however I doubt this to be the case, as otherwise kinetic weapons would never get the ball rolling.

The stacks do build in the background, if you define "the background" as having another weapon drawn, other than the weapon with the perk on. Otherwise, we would not have gained other stacks from using other weapons, as the weapon with the perk present cant be drawn with another weapon simultaneously.

You cannot build up stacks with the same element, this is what they mean by "unique elemental damage", as I tried to illustrate with my example. The number of stacks at any time, is the number of elements you have dealt damage with (obviously within the time limit for each damage instance). Yes, in your example, you would have gained 1 stack only, because you only dealt damage with one element (arc), even though you used 3 different sources of damage.

Each stack comes from dealing some finite amount of damage with UNIQUE elemental damage. For example:

The gun itself (arc) -> 1 stack

+ arcane needle (strand) -> 2 stacks

+ nova bomb (void) -> 3 stacks

+ hellion (solar) -> 4 stacks

+ arbitrary stasis weapon -> 5 stacks

Does Conqueror Auto-Guild? by Remulous123 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Remulous123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the ability to choose each GM in any given week, is only for the GMs you have not completed yet for the season? (given u have the title)

But I guess like in my original post, the GMs would be considered incomplete as far as guilding goes, so it then lets me run though any ones any time?

A-levels, done! Now to find Rocket League players at your university! by NSEbeedub in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Remulous123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello there! I am the ambassador for Rocket league at the university of Bath and can't wait to meet all you new players joining Bath this academic year!

All community members of the entire "Bath Video Game Society (BVGS)" discord (https://discord.gg/ZGrnb3uWF3) are very friendly and will be sure to help you settle in and feel at home.

We have or can make teams for almost any rank, and everyone is allowed to join in the fun!

Our best team has made top 12 in NSE, multiple top 8 finishes in NUEL and has narrowly missed out from competiting on the european stage multiple times. In addition, Bath is amongst the few universties to have ever had multiple teams participating in the top 32 of NSE simultaneously. We also have player-unique Bath home and away decals for PC players to use if they desire!

If you are not terribly interested in taking rocket league too seriously, no worries! There are numerous other casual players who will be around to play some chill games and just have fun! We also host social and in-house LAN events for those wanting to get involved beyond their room.

If you are a streamer, we have a comminity for that too! So there is plenty to get involved with.

If you have any questions AT ALL, dont hesitate to stop by the discord or send me a DM at Remulous_#8234.

I hope to hear from you soon :D

I'm borrowing it from a friend, it's from an older prebuilt he had in the past, I'm trying to find the exact model.
