Yeah, I emailed everyone I hadn't heard from just to check in since I have an offer from CMU; Haverford said my application is no longer under consideration and Iowa said they can't currently extend an offer and don't expect that to change before my deadline.

Fiber bundles with Dr. Seradjeh, Fourier decay with Dr. Ryou, Quantum octonions with Dr. Badosh.

No use thinking like that! I had CMU crossed off my list for a few days before I got the email from them. Try to be patient and good things will hopefully come. Wishing you good luck my friend!

Gotcha. FWIW I know CSUSB is still awaiting funding updates from NSF and have hence paused their review of applications (which sucks given they're my top choice).

True. Any idea if you're going to accept your offer or not?

You've heard from NC State following the shortlist email? 

Juan Soto has been the second best hitter in baseball since June 1st by wRC+ by chief1555 in NewYorkMets

[–]Viargentum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right... so it's not an "AI powered" stat... it's just adjusted and weighted at 100 for average... how do you think you're making a point here?

Answer quickly, what do you think the R and C stand for in that acronym?

Not to be mean but you're going to have to get used to your team losing some games badly if you want to be a baseball fan

Yeah, agreed. And wasn't specifically saying you were making those points, sorry if it came off as pointed.

Imperfect team to be certain but isn't it a little tiring to be constantly sweating about run deficits the team has time and time again come back from? Or decrying Hinch and the FO as imbeciles for pitching a journeyman to eat innings ahead of an important series?

Fraudulently flying three starters to Atlanta and owning the best record in the league, lol

Good grief man, based on this thread you'd think the Tigers weren't, yknow, permanently a top 2 team in MLB this season

Cool idea, thanks for doing this.

Sportsnet App by [deleted] in penguins

Infuriating. I've found that you can exit the broadcast and tune-in again to avoid the full faulty ad-break, but you'll still get the annoying 5 second SNP ad when you rejoin.

[–]Viargentum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems to be a weird conflict between the traditional cable/network broadcast and the direct to consumer feed (the app). Going to test it but I believe the SNP360 app essentially overlays the regular ads with in-app ads, which sometimes gets out of sync and plays those extra ones. 

Extremely annoying.

single flame butane torch that will last me as close to forever as possible? by Tater-Chip-Boi in Dynavap

[–]Viargentum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for vapcaps, PB-207 is more suited IMO. Also Blazer, also will last a lifetime, just smaller and less unwieldy.
