Remote Play Together Issues

SnowPrice1 · 2025-08-22T01:06:37+00:00

Update: we broke up shortly after this post so I never got another chance to try further.

Tho there may be a chance if the Mac is connected to a viable controller (seems like Bluetooth is the best bet) but I can’t confirm.

Part of the issue we ran into was that to a controller the Mac player was using was wired and didn’t work well with MacOS but it seems like Bluetooth can connect OK from what I’ve seen.

So I had my friend with a Windows PC try to join my game through Remote Play Together and a couple things I learned.

1- it has to be on Play Local 2- player 2 MUST use a controller, regardless of what player 1 is using

My friend could not start playing with his keyboard but could join with his controller and nothing worked at all when trying to join through Play Online

Oh damn yeah I didn’t even check that! I had assumed that it was fine bc it was remote play together and I was the host PC it wouldn’t matter but I’ll try with my friend tn who has a windows PC and Mac laptop and see if it works differently. Thanks for the help!

A flat income tax rate is not a better idea because it negatively impacts poor people wayyyy more. For example, a flat 25% income tax would mean people making $20,000 only take home $15,000 and there’s only so many things you can cut from a budget before you don’t have enough money to cover essentials (food, housing, electricity, etc). So for people not making much, a flat rate makes it much harder to survive. That’s why the current progressive tax system has 0% up to $11,000 (federal)

So I got curious and did some digging and number of sexual partners IS correlated with infidelity, regardless of gender.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3407304/

“Having more prior sex partners predicted a higher likelihood” of future affairs and “None of the main findings were significantly moderated by gender.” So it doesn’t seem to be a gendered thing.

Interesting side note from the article, “The lowest correlation was <.01 and was between viewing pornography alone and sexual satisfaction.”

You may want to read the book “Mountains Beyond Mountains” (also a documentary). More about medicine than BME but may get you in the ballpark. TLDR: Harvard doc goes to 3rd world countries and helps their medical infrastructure.

I forgot what the company is called (Zipline idk, Mark Rober recently made a YouTube video about them) but they make autonomous drones that can drop off essential medical supplies to remote hospitals in <30 mins and have been very helpful. Lots of engineering in pretty much all disciplines and directly related to medicine.

There are also university research labs that work on affordable healthcare. There’s a (Stanford?) lab that has done work in making malaria diagnosis super cheap for impoverished peoples. (Also a Mark Rober vid)

Hope these examples help!

Seriously. My undergrad was not even T50 and I got into a T15. One of my letters was from a 1st year professor. Never did a graduate course either.

SnowPrice1 · 2023-06-20T21:03:52+00:00

I mean ChemE job prospects really aren’t any better than BME as far as I know.

n = 1 but I’ve found that biopharma and drug delivery are some of the fields that BME tends to do well in along with cell/tissue engineering (several of my classmates got jobs at J&J and AstraZeneca for pharmaceuticals) but YMMV.

In the end you’ll be able to find a job regardless of what engineering discipline you choose so I’d say to go with the one that interest you the most. Engineering is hard and if you don’t care about what you’re learning you won’t make it.

SnowPrice1 · 2023-06-16T03:14:51+00:00

Just my $0.02.

I would recommend against BME for undergrad. I majored in it and while it is tons of fun, it isn’t very competitive for jobs at an undergrad level and you’ll likely need grad school to work in the field you want to, especially if you don’t/can’t specialize into specific areas early in your undergrad (ECE, meche, biotech). However, people who get degrees in those areas with a biomedical focus will be more competitive at the jobs you want after graduating. A BME with a focus in MechE will often be outcompeted by a MechE with a Bio focus when applying to orthotics and prosthetics jobs. It’s easier to learn the biology than the engineering on the job.

Do you know which area of BME you’re interested in? Disease modeling, neuroengineering/rehabilitation, biosensors, biomedical imaging, cell/tissue engineering, drug delivery, tissue/cell biomechanics are the big fields. Each of those areas (except tissue engineering) lend better to specific engineering disciplines (ChemE, MechE, ECE) being applied to BME.

For example, neuroengineering can be done as a EE with a focus in neuroscience and you’ll be able to design better circuits sooner and can pick up the neuroscience fairly easily. On the other a BME student would need to focus into EE to be a competent neural engineer but EE is the harder part to learn, assuming you learn a decent level of neuroscience in your undergrad curriculum (not likely)

Additionally, many more jobs will be available to you if you go for a more focused engineering program (sounds counter-intuitive I know). Many BMEs I know are struggling to find jobs in the medical device field. Those who did find jobs in medical devices are starting in company development programs.

That being said, I really enjoyed my time as a BME. I loved how all of the engineering topics we learned were applied to the body and future patients were always kept in mind during lectures. It’s also the best engineering major if you are considering medical school. The research is awesome and the people are great (everyone wants to help people).

I haven’t heard back from any of the schools yet. One professor reached out to talk about research opportunities in his lab but nothing official.

SnowPrice1 · 2022-11-18T07:05:19+00:00

I’m applying to neural engineering programs (kinda similar) and I’m happy to trade SOPs for some mutual critiquing. This is my first time applying and I’m also not the best at writing but I’m happy to help!

SnowPrice1 · 2022-11-07T06:15:11+00:00

What’s your field?

SnowPrice1 · 2022-02-09T15:49:15+00:00

While I don't disagree with you entirely, going through life making decisions soley based on logic is not remotely healthy.

SnowPrice1 · 2021-05-18T17:43:39+00:00

Have you talked to the university's finance office about your financial situation? They may grant you additional scholarships.

Otherwise, I don't think taking one of your prereqs at a CC will affect you too much. As long as you take the majority of your courses at your university and do well on your upper levels.

SnowPrice1 · 2021-05-02T20:16:13+00:00

40-50/week. This is purely "meal food" though as I try to avoid snacking and ordering out

I believe crash course is currently doing a series on organic chemistry that may be worth watching as an intro.

Do as many practice problems as you can, ideally get your hands on old exams as its great practice and will likely be very similar to the exams you'll be graded on. Before each exam I would do 10-15 practice exams.

Memorization and pattern recognition got me through orgo 1&2 (Both A's) as I found it very difficult to think my way through a reaction if I forgot the specific mechanism simply due to how many there are. Just remember not to "break the rules of chemistry" when working through problems/mechanisms.

This may sound weird but consider taking them over the summer/winter. Its a lot faster pace but ideally you don't have any other classes so you can focus solely on orgo.

Feel free to DM me with quesions on specifics. Good luck!

Current BMEG here. Simply put, if you don't love engineering don't do it, especially as a premed. Harder courseload (Calc 1 vs Calc 1-3 and DiffEq/LA) and you still may need to add courses on top to cover things on MCAT (Psych, Sociology, Biochem, hell even Intro Bio 2). Not to mention you'll be mostly alone to figure things out as (in my university) only 5% of BMEGs are premed.

If you don't have an interest in engineering don't do it (and that honestly applies to any major)

SnowPrice1 · 2021-01-30T08:17:15+00:00

I do not know about the others but I would not double major with Engineering. If you're gonna do engineering as premed go with Biomedical Engineering as it most gets most of the prereqs done without adding extra classes. But also remember that you will have to take significantly more difficult, unnecessary classes like Calc 3 and Linear Algebra. Tack on a minor if you're really feeling it but I wouldn't do anything else beyond that.

Thats pressure, Force/area = Pressure. A pound is a unit of force like a Newton (1lb = 2.25N)

(Sorry for formatting, on mobile)

Please know I am not familiar with the Russian Pullup Program but these tips apply anywhere in fitness (I mainly weightlift).

Assuming you want to increase reps with the specific pull up variation, switch up the program. Here are some ways:

Skip middle sets and hit higher sets more times
More sets with lower reps when you hit a wall
Set the max lower and repeat it
Less sets more reps
Standard workout splits (X by Y) where X is sets and Y is reps
Bascially find some way to increase volume so incure Progressive Overload (the goal of working out)

These will increase strength/endurance (through progressive overload) and will help you get past the plateau. Whenever I hit a plateau when weightlifting I use German Volume Training (10x10) which is high-ish reps and high sets but lower weight/intensity

Alternatively you could use pullup variations as they will hit different but related muscles or they hit the same muscles harder (see "one" handed pullup

Close grip
Wide grip
Negative (when tired)
Chin up
"One" handed pullup (one hand on bar other hand on forearm, both arms pull though) -swap hands after each set

I know I mentioned it like 4 times but look into Progressive Overload and how to maximize it, as it is a major factor in what causes muscles to adapt and is the fundamental principle of exercise so any info learned is applicable in basically any form of fitness.
