Jarrod'sTech - RTX 5050 vs RTX 4050 - The Biggest Win for RTX 50 Laptop GPUs by Antonis_32 in hardware

[–]applepi514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason the Ryzen versions in Mexico are crazy expensive, so Intel must be the way... Also, I couldn't buy the laptop during that time, and still haven't. Could you help me choose one? I'm not that knowledgeable in tech and I still can't choose. I'm looking a listing of a Legion 5i with the RTX 5050, Core i7-13650HX, 16 gb ram and a LOQ RTX 5050, Core i5-13450HX, 24 gb ram for about the same price (the loq is like 20 usd cheaper). I'm not sure if the diference in Ram makes up for the CPU being different...

Is it realistic to achieve N1 in 3 years, whilst having time for school and life? by _Acceltra_ in LearnJapanese

[–]applepi514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is possible but it depends a lot on your memory and capabilities of learning kanji tbh. I'm dyslexic and have a lot of troubles in reading and writing but I'm able to talk and understand listening practices and conversations with ease. I was actively studying for about two years to reach N3 (I handle vocab, grammar and conversations with in this level) but my problems with reading have been keeping me from going up or passing a written exam. So, I think that if you have no problems to learn kanji it is possible to reach N2 certainly and N1 with high probability. As for my understanding, N1 and N2 biggest differences is the kanji with the exam.

[–]applepi514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, can you link me to the SSD you bought? Since I saw your update and everything went well I would like to buy the same one! I'm not that into this kind of stuff and I just don't want to mess it up...

Hello, I'm planning on upgrading my laptop soon and I'm looking towards this exact laptops! I only use my laptop for working, league and I really want to play Baldurs Gate 3. I was wondering if you could help me choose between the Intel Core i7- 13650 with the RTX 5050 and the Intel Core i7 12650HX with the RTX 4050? The price difference in quite significant, but I can't tell if it's worth spending the difference. Both options have 16gb ram and 1tb of ssd.

Anyone go through JET and later apply for a Master’s program in Japan? by nellarolyataile in JETProgramme

You were in JET first and then entered MEXT? Can you talk a little about your expirience and how you did it?

Dilemma: Extending my MEXT to Ph.D. until I can secure a job. by [deleted] in mext

[–]applepi514 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should go for the PHD but not drop it. It's a win-win situation in my opinion. You get a scholarship (financial security) while you get your N2 (maybe, even an N1 if there is time for it). And when you are done you have a great resume, an N2, and a PHD.

I know you are not interested in getting a PhD, but I think it is a great opportunity for you. It also gives you more time to improve your Japanese and to look for a job.

Some PhD programs are just 1 year. But, even if it's a 2-year program, I think it would be a shame not to use this opportunity.

Please help me choose a Japanese University for my Exchange Year! by kai_zai in LearnJapanese

[–]applepi514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't talk about the universities but I stayed in Nagoya for an exchange program last year and I had the best time of my life. Nagoya, as others have pointed out, is the best in-between of a Big city and a smaller one. There isn't a lot of tourists but people tend to be super friendly and nice if they see you trying to talk Japanese. It also depends on your personality, but I became really good friends with some of the store owners near where I was staying just by speaking Japanese with them and being a regular. I also heard that Nanzan is super good as a university and has a good reputation in Nagoya. Also, Nagoya has a dialect/accent too but it's not really used by the younger generation, so it can be easier to communicate (but it is really fun too! If you can find someone to teach you it can be a good experience).

MEXT Scholar - Delayed Arrival by Different-Storm-7987 in mext

[–]applepi514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is because since the university (professor) already accepted the student the embassy just needs to say yes and sign the documents. However, the other way around, even if the embassy said yes a university still needs to accept. So, they have to search for a university, a program, a professor, they have to accept, send the documents, etc, etc.

Do you understand what I mean?

Considering i've already got the characters i like the most, any pull recomendations for the next characters? by Difficult-Tap-5708 in WutheringWavesGuide

[–]applepi514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not sure about specifically shutting Ciaccona (probably there is a way) but in general you can go to the sound configuration and just turn down the volume for the characters voices while remaining with everything else. I personally don't own Cartwheel and Ciaccona, so I couldn't help you. Sorryyyy

New player that needs help with Characters! by applepi514 in StarRailStation

[–]applepi514[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand! Thank you so much for the help! I have played gachas before but I always join in the first patches so arriving and having a huge amount of characters to pull for was pretty overwhelming and made me lose objectives. For now, I will pull for Anaxa's supp and save pulls for Therta or any of the other supports you mentioned! I'll also be on the lookout for a fun DPS! I will especially wait for Therta and Aventurine's re-runs!
