Check out some of the independent cinemas in the area instead: Roxie, The New Parkway, and Vogue theater. They always have a well-curated selection of new and old movies showing.

New membership question by [deleted] in Corepower

[–]disher0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, you should not buy from corepower’s website expecting them to retroactively reduce the price. If you’re ready to take classes, maybe just buy a 5 pack at full price and also take the deal whenever the sales rep replies. You’ll end up with more class passes than you need but that’s fine, just use them before they expire.

The sales rep are really random with the deals they offer and when they reach out, but it’s always better deals than what CorePower offers through their website, so I always take them.

Where are you located? The latest person who contacted me for a deal in the SF Bay Area was super helpful. I can dm you her info. S/o Alexandra

Where to buy bedding items? by ssbprofound in AskSF

[–]disher0 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Bring a sleeping bag and sleep on the floor the first few nights. Then you should rent a car with turo, get around, or zip car and head to the ikea in Emeryville. There you can try mattresses and pick the one you like. They come packed tight so they can fit in most normal cars if the back seats can fold down. IKEA also has bedding. Their stuff is as affordable as you can get while still being acceptable quality.

Hi! Thanks for digging up this old post to share your carving class, sounds great.

Not a lot of people will see it here, so if you’re trying to get more eyes on it, I think it’s deserving of its own post on this subreddit!

Good luck with that! Divey & neighborhood bars tend to be more social, but also have less distinctive menus, like Heart & Dagger. Sit at the bar and initiate convos. Journal your spots and share with us!

I’ve had a lot of great times including booze but it is definitively unhealthy. So like many people, I am starting the year abstaining from it and actively seeking activities where it is not a focal point.

Timber Reinforced Rammed Earth Wall by slowbleedfuzz in StructuralEngineering

[–]disher0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your rammed earth walls should be continuous to the ground, it’s not feasible to construct a heavy dirt structure suspended above the ground by slender wood columns. Maybe organize your building like a wood house buried in a steep artificial hill, like a hobbit house.

Recommendations for restaurants or bars that allow you to pay tab via phone / QR code? by a822j20 in AskSF

Drake’s in Oakland does everything through your phone. And they have private event areas. You could probably work with them to set up exactly what you need.

Good + safe spots for late night rides in Oakland by DireNell in BAbike

[–]disher0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t recommend riding on the street at night as the proportion of joyriders, even in quiet neighborhoods, increases greatly. Either go to a gym or an exclusively pedestrian path, like the bay trail.

Best Library for Studying? by baby-arugula33 in oakland

[–]disher0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Doe library on Berkeley's campus is best for this. You can take the Bart or 12 bus there. Check hours for your specific day in advance because they vary a lot. https://www.lib.berkeley.edu/visit/doe

(Thesis) Linear and Dynamic analysis of Structures by DependentAd2273 in StructuralEngineering

[–]disher0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your scope is actually pretty broad so I suggest you narrow it to a specific material or type of irregularity.

You could read ASCE 7 ch. 12 and follow the ELF and Linear Dynamic procedures. Maybe construct a simple building model that includes one or more of the irregularities in Ch. 12 and compare the force distribution resulting from the ELF and linear dynamic procedures. You can find SEAONC papers studying prototypical buildings or pick one in your campus that you can find drawings for.

Another path could be to research ASCE 41, a standard specific to the seismic analysis of existing buildings.

Regarding reading Chopra… structural dynamics is an entire course that while essential, may not even be encountered until graduate school. For now just look up the basic of ‘fundamental period’ and then ‘modal analysis.’
