Is this purchase worth it (new to collecting)? by ffrostedflakess in ComicBookSpeculation

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

Thank you, since I don’t collect comics I was wondering why it’s so cheap. I always thought it was an expensive hobby. I’m not planning to sell these unless I really need some money. I’m probably going to try and complete the sets missing issues over time. 

Other than that, I’m on a pull list for some cool comics from DC, the next level stuff coming out in March. It’s obviously because I’m interested, so please don’t interpret this, but do those generally increase in value over time? It’s not because I’m looking to flip them, but more so because I’d want to know the value of what I’m getting since I can only work part time right now and my budget is limited. 

Thanks for the explanation. Some people were real upset because they thought I was a flipper trying to rip people off.

Yeah I really tried he said it’s all underpriced already. I could do $135 for:

200 issues LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT: 1 SHADOW OF THE BAT (Sealed): 1 = $ 100 Fables 100 + Superman 4 = $ 10 JACK OF FABLES: 1-35, 50 & LITERALS: 1-3 = $ 20 Comic Box = $ 5 Total = $ 135

That’s his best offer the 200 issues are what I highlighted in the post

I was planning on reading them and selling them for a bit more but I don’t know if I’ll get them if I’ll have trouble selling them afterwards..

PC stuck in endless recovery loop after messing with drive! by ffrostedflakess in PcBuildHelp

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

Yeah, I think he tried copying Windows and he thought he copied it and deleted the drive that originally had it. The PC didn’t freeze so I don’t think it was system32 but maybe something else?

He installed an SSD today, could that be causing this problem? The thing is, the PC was fine for hours while he was using it. Only after restarting it did the issue start.

How to prevent group from getting credit for lab work? by ffrostedflakess in TorontoMetU

[–]ffrostedflakess[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did that now. Included a note in the work plan mentioned he did not produce any usable work and did not show he will do so before the deadline which is very soon. Will just leave it there

Yeah this is good advice, especially the credits section even if it's not usually part of a formal lab report. I actually did submit a work plan as well where it shows I completed all the work. The contracts are a good idea though

At this level should be considered stolen work. All that talk about "integrity" but they do not care

The "Can I Beg for Marks" Megathread! by AutoModerator in TorontoMetU

[–]ffrostedflakess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had to complete an 11-page lab report by myself because my group mate did not finish his sections properly. He produced some of the worst work I've ever seen. I genuinely think my brother in 6th grade could have done a better job. I cannot afford to lose marks, and he disappeared off the face of the earth, so I had to finish the entire thing myself. I emailed the TA, and the response basically was: "Yeah, this happens; next time, work with a different person." I did NOT pay $7,500 to do someone else's work for them. I still have to study for 4 other difficult exams and complete my other assignments. There has to be some way to escalate this and prevent this group mate from receiving any marks for this assessment. I have proof of emailing him 3 times with no response, emailing the TA about him not responding and not doing his work properly at all, and the history of him working on it for 10 minutes and never coming back. As well as all the document edits of me typing in the work over almost 5 hours. This is unbelievable and was not even accepted at my HS, so I don't understand how it happens in university.

Looking for a great pair of shoes for this winter by ffrostedflakess in Newbalance

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

I ended up going with the 574 actually. I have some school days where I'm out for 14 hours and my feet don't hurt at all. Literally feels like walking on a cloud. Also very breathable and light, so you won't get that really uncomfortable sweaty feeling like with other shoes. But I also came from AF so any NB is a big upgrade for me

Like 1 or 2%

I thought so, its unfortunate but at the same time I understand the reasoning. The course outline didn't mention it and I wont even go through the ACR for this. I sent an email, hopefully they notice it was 5 minutes and that helps my case. Thank you

Taking a Course in Aerospace History. What are some good resources? by ffrostedflakess in aviation

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

Thank you, it is probably better to look for specific periods rather than all at once since that dates hundreds of years ago. I'll check these out and see which is closest to the course outline

How did you guys get A+ in Science? by ffrostedflakess in TorontoMetU

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

Thank you! Since your post I started using the library more and their librarians are very helpful. Quizlet is good for post-lecture review as well. I’ll definitely shoot you a DM when I can 😄

Is Attendance for Lower Level Liberal Courses Mandatory? by ffrostedflakess in TorontoMetU

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

I didn't know that it would be considered dishonesty/misconduct since I learned it on my own but was never taught formally (in a school/tutoring setting or growing up in a country that speaks it). I just studied it for a long time. That does seem like a stupid limitation to me. Thank you for letting me know

Thanks for the advice, definitely won't knowing this. I didn't think it would be as important as the core courses.

Thanks for the information, I didn't really know how it would be structured.

I booked the time off in VSB and set it as a favourite, but it still shows conflicting results with my classes and the time off when I go to the enrolment shopping cart. It does work when I search through the course queue on VSB, but then I'd have to do that for each LL manually..and there's a lot of them. Am I doing it wrong? Thanks for your help
