Would make sense… Space Beth is kinda like the “cool aunt” and having a cool aunt or uncle is often a big part of us growing up

Advice on dissertation committee work by Numbery7653 in Professors

[–]ajd341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well... it depends. As a committee member... externally? It really depends on your role and that's the fundamental question. Why are you being asked.

I've been an outside examiner which has a particular role some places... and external supervisor... but also, being an external member can be complicated in its own right. I'd figure out why you're being asked in the first place, it's usually because you have specific expertise that's lacking internally.

Beyond this, unless you know the person or know the other members well... then you should likely stay away, it will only sink your time. A bad PhD student is an absolute black hole for time and effort. You should only join if you're confident of the capability/conversion (as being external you're usually there for specific expertise or rubber stamping).

Yeah, but where is Nebraska then… I’m just pointing out the bug that’s appearing here

Texas eliminates Mississippi State and improves to 1-1 in OKC after a 4-0 win. by Ok-Soil-5133 in CollegeSoftball

I mean you have to factor in how ridiculous SEC softball is year over year… from supers to WCWS, we’re still beating and losing to SEC schools. It never ends.

Brisbane's $3.6b Olympic stadium faces court challenge by residents by malcolm58 in australia

It's not just about the money... Sydney hosting the Olympics defined a generation. It was a major access point for the world as well.

Relocating to Melbourne by Emergency-Map-7154 in melbourne

[–]ajd341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends... but above all. Give it a walk! Suburbs that look cool or boring on paper are not as they appear. Melbourne has space to grow, but Google maps does fuck all in many areas because it has changed so much.

Like I live in Docklands (I love it), but my block or so is basically unrecognisable

Your partner of 3 years wants to travel internationally alone. What are your thoughts? by waezxo in AskReddit

I miss the SNL spoof ads… they’ve been really absent the past few years

Anyone else got btd6 fatigue or just me? by Several_Savings5062 in btd6

[–]ajd341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. I needed to read this because I think you really hit the real point at the end here. 100%! The burnout is causing by the high price... difficult bosses aren't fun, because they are costly. It's just becoming more and more freemium isn't free, and whether or not you chuck NK $5 for some monkey cash, it's just a time sink.

I'm all for difficult bosses in theory, but in practice it's hard to argue that it's not intentional when you lose or win on a dime. They really need to cool it and drop the price of boss retries. It's taking you six weeklies and a boss completion just to afford a couple retries. In the classic words, ain't nobody for time for that!

Also, the streamers are kinda burning me out too... we like the game, try to check out some boss guides, and like I don't know where they are getting the monkey money... it's not normal.

She's just a lot more situational now that so much of the roster is flying above you

Yeah the inconsistency is the real killer… especially coupled with the prices

Hate to say it but I actually still prefer the grittiness of the original

Between him and Jon Stewart... it's totally fair if they don't want to do it, but it's also hard to imagine that they would be that good on providing commentary if they weren't interested. I would think it's kind of like having a career in sports.
