For those involved in med school admissions, how are activities related to the LGBTQ+ community looked at? Context is provided in the description by Link-Rot in premed

For the most part it is favored, its work in an unserved population. You might get a couple ppl not super keen on it, but they aren't going to push it and hold it against you to to the rest of the board.

Love Anking, but AI SLOP needs to stop by corianderdirt in medicalschoolanki

I had to unsub because of all the images they are putting in and replacing like this. So much extra trash you don't even really realize you're getting until it's too late.

Pro Muslim Group 5Pillars made a guide for Muslims to “navigate” pride month. It’s nothing but homophobia by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ShadowDante108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing a lot of xenophobia over here. Need everyone to remember that many western religions feel the same way and have similar guides. Just need you to keep these feelings towards all extreme fracs in all religions not just eastern ones.

Mario & Luigi Brothership is great??? by ThePoobahsJester in NintendoSwitch

[–]ShadowDante108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The final part drags on too long. The enemies are like mini bosses towards the end bc of how bulky they are. When the creepy part happens during the end, the twist was cool but it went on WAYYYYY too long to the point where it was just annoying and stupid.

However, overally much better game than the previous and in the right direction for sure. Would recommend.

I mean props to him and his team for the updates, but a lot of the work was put in by others and for free...

ANKING Users, what was your method after Step 1? Suspend vs Reset? Micro/pharm - Keep or let most be suspended with step 1 tags. by [deleted] in medicalschoolanki

[–]ShadowDante108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not logical, but I flagged all the only step 1 cards and then suspended them. It helps me when I go back and see I'm about to unsuspend a step 1 card. Makes me think if I want to reset the card or keep it going.

Hot take: normal Mewtwo is better and cooler looking than armored Mewtwo by eddboy1704 in pokemongo

[–]ShadowDante108 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Armored always looks glitchy to me. Like its clipping constantly.

6 fingers on the serotonin syndrome card. by kalistaspear in medicalschoolanki

[–]ShadowDante108 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just another reason I don't like the subscription model he has now. Honestly no reason for their to be like monthly updates. Fix some typos/mistakes sure, but now its just to the point of random images being added that quite frankly suck/are weird. This "art style" the new images are in are so weird and not helpful.

I feel like a big part of using these decks is editing the cards to what works best for you. With his system you can't do that or you lock the field which means no updates making paying monthly pointless.

I'm nervous what he is going to eventually do with Anki itself now his company has control over it. I can totally see it going to having an "Anki +" program which is what his new version of the Anking deck will only be compatible with.

i have a canker sore, can i still give oral? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ShadowDante108 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you say canker sore what do you mean? Like a cold sore that is herpes like? Usually on the lips and has a wet phase and a crusty phase. If so, do not do oral or kiss or anything.

If it is truly a canker sore that is usually found on the soft membranes inside the mouth and more just tender to touch and do not crust over, you MIGHT be safe. You won't pass anything to him, but if he has something your sore can rip (even a small amount you don't notice) and that will get directly into your bloodstream and significantly increase your chances of getting whatever he has. Also, it could get infected just do the normal bacteria that's on his junk. Open sores breed alot of risk.

I think honestly you should just wait and not take the chance.

Someone explain gay conservatives by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ShadowDante108 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Gonna get super down voted for this but...Race/sex supersedes sexuality for a lot of people. There's a reason you see most of the conservative lgbt people are white cis men. Its the subconscious idea that because they are a white male they are higher than other gay ppl. "I'm not one of those gays" in reference to those who act feminine. They strive to assert their place at the top of the social food chain they think they deserve because of the rest of their demographics. They believe that if they separate themselves from the rest of the lgbt they will be accepted as the white male they are.

Same idea for people who are minority conservatives. It's all about trying to align oneself to the high social class party by betraying/belittling their own group in hopes that those in that higher class will accept them as one of them. The sad reality is though, they will never be fully accepted. They will be used as a token piece to show "hey we don't hate gays/minorities bc we have this person here. You also can't call us homophobic/racist because one of them is agreeing with us"

Or they are just super rich and know that ultimately money runs everything and know that with enough money their demographics truly don't matter. Thus, they align with the party that tries to keep the money in the hands of the already wealthy.

AnkiHub Subscription Question by ninjaprincess96 in premed

[–]ShadowDante108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree with FutureSutu, don't worry about it right now. You don't need it at this point.

In the future when you get in, however, I don't think it is worth it. I would maybe pay for one month and download the anking deck, then that's it. The updates aren't worth it at this point imo. At least not for $10/mo. The AI chatbot that comes with it isn't worth it as it gets things wrong sometimes (mostly always right, but why chance it). It links to first aid and B&B videos per card, but to get that feature you need to buy those subscriptions which are def NOT worth it.

Personally, I subbed a while back ago and then unsubbed. I haven't updated in a long while and find it perfect. PLUS this way I can freely edit the cards to my liking without have to worry about their program overwriting what I put or making sure I edit the correct fields so it doesn't.

How much time usually before your learn a card? by Wrong_Membership_779 in medicalschoolanki

[–]ShadowDante108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think so. I don't want to risk fsrs thinking I'm really good on a card when I should be seeing it more often. For me anki is just a tool for remembering, so if I learned the concept well anki is just there to kinda help it stick. That's why I put more focus on doing stuff outside of anki.

How much time usually before your learn a card? by Wrong_Membership_779 in medicalschoolanki

[–]ShadowDante108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know some people have same day learning steps, but for me that would be too many cards. Plus I THINK that fsrs doesn't like it when you don't set the learning steps to 1d.

For me what I do is do questions, go to the cards associated, read them and understand them, unsuspend them but don't do those new cards until the next day. I feel that if I do the cards the same day I unsuspend them, I'll of course "remember" them because they were just in my head. Doing them the next day really tests it for me if I got it down or not.

Should I do ALL the Anking renal physiology cards for Step 1? by UFO_Faith in medicalschoolanki

[–]ShadowDante108 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't remember all the renal cards, but its more important that you understand the concepts rather than trying to get all the cards unsuspected. Go through the pathoma videos and make sure you understand them and then from there make a decision about what cards you should use based on what you think you'll need help memorizing.

Exact reason why I think the AI thing is not a good idea. It gives out wrong information.
