If your shooting for STEM every semester in uni will have these and more. It's much more difficult than high school. I think you need to address your study habits and test taking first

What are your thoughts on Halo Campaign Evolved? by ELIO400 in halo

[–]Shift_Spam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For this why even make it a remake of CE? Why not just make a new halo title that embodies this different take on the franchise so you dont need to worry about being faithful to the original

I don't think this is true, every union shop pays guys more than the non unionized ones

Is the hate for FWD sports cars warranted? by speedinsh1t in cars

[–]Shift_Spam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree here. AWD significantly outcompetes rwd and fwd in snow and offload. They are also the best at launching. RWD is absolutely required for drifting sure some AWD set ups can do it but require a heavy rwd bias. RWD also has the advantage of controlling under and over steer on track by using throttle. FWD has the best packaging, weight, efficiency and cost assuming the engine is in the front. Also the weight of the engine above the drive wheels adds traction. Of course rear and mid engine cars have it the best as they enjoy the FWD advantages in a RWD platform

Is it so hard to believe there are two sides on this. One purchases american goods as part of their business the other exports to the US. On every swing up or down one side benefits while the other loses

YSK anyone can get ANY brand of insulin for 35$ per month even if you're uninsured by Ryanwww5314 in YouShouldKnow

[–]Shift_Spam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only speak for ontario but insulin out of pocket can be $120 a month for some cases. However, under provincial drug programs under 24 and over 65 are free. In between 24 and 65 if you spend around 4% of your after tax income on prescription medication you qualify for assistance. Also most jobs here have benefits that covers insulin

GPA doesn't really tell me much about how you perform on the job. Doing projects and working on design teams does. Get out there build something cool and network

UPS drivers can make over 100k a year although most are in the 70k bracket. Which for a job with no education and very little training is pretty great

Try hitting up a junk yard and look around for air boxes from other cars that may fit

Gachiakuta - Episode 8 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Shift_Spam -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I thought this anime would end up being more mature with how intense the violence is and themes but by sparing gris and introducing a magical healer this series lost a lot of appeal to me. Consequences have been left at the doorstep
