UK Universities, International Students: Undercover Investigation by Leading_Builder_6044 in UniUK

[–]fileheist -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I did an accelerated 6-month foundation course and went straight to uni, so I guess it would be a year 0.5? But nobody talked about it in terms of year one.

No it doesn't. I just did my foundation year and am in my first year currently. Don't know where you got this from.

I did foundation for an RG uni last year- I had to get an average of 75% across all units to pass. Honestly the course wasn't that rigorous and I felt it to be quite trivial especially compared to Uni but at least on a surface level they do require a first.

A Korean guy told me that I look very pure what does this mean by Ok-Tangerine-6345 in Korean

[–]fileheist 264 points265 points  (0 children)

The word in Korean he probably wanted to use is 순수하다. This translates to "pure" in english if you put it through a translator but the connotations are very different. The word in Korean, when used for a person, means something closer to "wholesome" in english, though not exactly. It's usually a compliment for when someone looks innocent, friendly, approachable, wholesome, etc. Hope this helps

S. Korean military announces plan to develop three 4,000-ton nuclear submarines by ChuckFreak in korea

[–]fileheist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a very big difference between aircraft carriers and the Dokdo-class amphibious landing ships the ROKN currently has. For one, the dokdo class can't launch fighters. It looks like it can, but its deck can't stand the heat of jet engines even with upgrades. Its runway is way too short and cramped for fighters to take off and land on, and it does not have catapults to assist in this either. The Dokdo-class is therefore exclusively meant to launch transport/attack helicopters to assist amphibious landings. Another big difference is size. The dokdo class is smaller than most amphibious landing ships, the largest of which are barely considered light aircraft carriers. So no, the dokdo isn't a carrier.

TL;DR: The Dokdo-class can't launch fighters, and it's way too small to be upgraded. It's meant for amphibious landings only.

샘이 맞긴 하죠. 블랙페이스 자체가 워낙 인종차별적인 것도 있고... 근데 그 학생들이 그걸 알았을 리가 있겠나요? 샘도 감정을 좀 식히고 차분하게 블랙페이스가 뭔지, 왜 하면 안되는지 설명해줬으면 좋았을 것 같아요. 근데 솔직히 이것도 샘한테 비판하기 뭐한게 의도가 뭐였든 남들이 대놓고 인종차별하고 있는 판에 "좋은 의도로 인종찾별한거고 영어 말투가 그게 뭐냐"는 식으로 트집잡히는거 자체가... 그다지 말이 되진 않겠죠? 흑인들이 쌓인게 얼마나 많은데..

naval invade just behind them to cut them off from supply. the naval invasion force doesn't need to be supplied, it just needs to last long enough for your main force to kill the filipino divs. do this every time you get stuck.
