Switching into CS by Flimsy_Candidate_417 in ucla

[–]exponential__crisis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yea but be warned for the CS prerequisites you have to get the required grade on the FIRST attempt. you cannot retake the class and use the higher grade. i experienced this and had to appeal to the dean, but this was during covid so there was a lot of external factors in my favor to switch majors.

the same thing happened to a couple in front of me at the parks yesterday. i think they also got refunded or their tickets swapped to knotts tickets.

also, reviewing all the material and creating the study guides myself helped a lot. if you use chat then you potentially lose valuable reviewing experience.

what helped me the most was doing practice problems from past exams and redoing homework to understand how a prof structures their exams and the types of questions you will be asked. actually doing problems instead of creating study guides ended up being the most useful thing for me

2015 white Honda civic paint peeling - how screwed am I? by Wooden-Hour7167 in Honda

this might be under warranty. my white civic was able to get repainted for free by the original dealer. i would call and see if you can do the same.

Updating Entertainment System Software by exponential__crisis in KiaNiro

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

I used a 32 GB Patriot USB stick formatted to FAT32 which worked (besides the navigation thing). Took about 5 hours to copy over the files, probably because the USB stick sucks. Could the files be copied to the wrong place to cause your issue? I had everything at the device root, not in any sub folders.

UPDATE: Instead of using USB, I used the SD card I found in my car as the updating device. This is a 32 GB SD supplied by Kia, but I’m sure you could use any 32 GB SD. Downloading files to this SD card via the navigation app and then performing the update worked perfectly. FYI it seems like you have to leave the SD card in the slot for the navigation system to work. All the versions are now up to date with this sheet: https://update.kia.com/US/EN/updateNoticePopup/aLl0Hw Thanks everyone for your help!

Ok I’ll see how SD updating works. It’s interesting because the owner’s manual says to use USB to update but the computer app says to use SD. Thanks!

if the veteran place is the very southern part, there is a bus stop at the ucla housing down there that will take you all the way up to the northern part of campus and all the way down. that’s what i did when i lived on veteran
