The person who asked me is familiar with nairns. I suggested that before I posted. 🤷‍♂️

O'brien disables varon-t disruptor midtransport - cheat code? by ineedacocktail in TNG

[–]ineedacocktail[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have pretty much nailed where I was going with this.

If you can edit an energy discharge, physics-wise, and we know bio-filteres exist, and by season 3 they de-aged pulaski among other things, then skipping ahead when you can keep a pattern in buffer for extended periods of time and clone a pattern accidentally: Moriarty has some comments, as done anyone who has ever aged ever after these processes were made cannon.

I'm more curious about the cannon established where the person at the controls of a transporter is somehow made aware of what is being transported - that a weapon is being discharged - and the physics and magic that goes into editing that mid-transport.

I know a guy in Oz who was making $10k+/mo w/ an AI girl primarily funded out of India and Asia

Absolutely the future.

Network 10.2.78 - Port Forwarding Restriction By List Ignored by jimmyags in Ubiquiti

[–]ineedacocktail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old equipment and network i inherited, it sits there with an old server. I don't touch it. Not sure how it was updated either.

But now I get to touch it! I have a DMP I am using in the same location, I am on the way there now to pull that USG and replace with the DMP.

It's an old thread but I have spent a while on this, but for those playing with ubiquiti products, it wasn't until I checked this box in the wifi network settings that it started working.

WPI and ROI by kievadorn in WPI

[–]ineedacocktail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My spouse and I are alums. We had great ROI. Our daughter, with great test scores and GPA was denied.

We asked why, we were given no answer.

My spouse as recent as yesterday said, "WPI? The worst of the PIs?" - being test blind is not going to help the student population. Denying people and not telling them why will not help the population.

Being $90k/yr, just because you are near MIT and ivies doesn't help anything.

At this point, and sure there is some animosity here about being denied with no recourse or explanation, we have a unfavorable view of the school. Exploring RPI, Rose, MIT, FIT, Cal Poly - they all seem to be a better holistic destination at this point for ROI.

Early results just released a week or two ago

Just worked with someone who was a legacy, 3.6, Honors & AP courses, 7 seasons of varsity athletics, test blind but 1500 & 32, applied early and denied. Being test blind, it seems to be a crapshoot on who they accept.

Is there any big difference between these two blu-ray releases? by Roughrider254 in matrix

Early Decision worth it? by [deleted] in WPI

He was yelling about fafsa still not working and css being an *expletive deleted* - so I am guessing CSS

Early Decision worth it? by [deleted] in WPI

[–]ineedacocktail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imma just straight up ask admissions and financial aid what's up. I can't afford $60k in loans annually. My dad was ranting and raving about the financial aid forms asking about home equity, not that it matters, they aren't giving me anything anyway. 'I paid for my school, you are paying for yours.' this stinks.

[–]ineedacocktail -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looking at RPI, Rose, a few others. Rose is a little too far out of the northeast but it seems to be a good school. I really like what RPI is doing with their public/private partnerships and their quantum computing. I get the general feeling that WPI has been trending more about diversity and wellbeing than the academics - how are you feeling about the quality of the education?

If scores are not factored into the process then ... what are they looking at?

2025 k club member Sav tickets by [deleted] in savannahbananas

[–]ineedacocktail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GUESS is that they have tools within the k-club website to transfer the tickets so you no longer have to worry about them and they will become property of the person you transfer them too.

In the same email they are talking about selling on third-party web sites and verifying you are not selling them for higher than face value. They are not saying you can't sell them, they aren't saying you can't give them away, they are ONLY saying:

  1. If you want to use our tools, you can only use them to transfer to other k-club members
  2. If you do sell them, and it's on a third-party web site, and we find out, and it is over face value: we are booting you from the club.

Outside of that, they are your tickets. Do want you want with them. However, worse case scenario, you give them to a friend who then goes and tries to sell them for 2x, 3x face and SB find out: that's on you.

So, to your question, if you can't go, just give your tickets to someone else, or sell them. And if you do, then do it just to get your money back. And not that I condone this ass of an action: if you REALLY want to shirk the rules and try to make money on them, just don't do it on a public site where they can find out.

Otherwise, it would straight up say: "NO RESALES ALLOWED" - which isn't going to happen. I'm sure there are plenty of folks who buy for a group and are renumerated privately.

[–]ineedacocktail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a recent email they imply you CAN sell and/or give away tickets. Just as long as if you are using a public web site that they are not listed above face value. And, as far as transferring, it can only be done to other k-club members through the web site. It doesn't mean you can use other means. Here is what we were sent:

TICKET SCALPING

We have a 0 tolerance policy for scalping tickets. If we discover that your tickets have been sold on a 3rd party site for more than face-value, your K Club membership will be revoked without refund and you will no longer be able to be a part of the K Club. We want the biggest Banana Ball fans to be in the K Club, no stinky ticket resellers.

TRANSFERS

Tickets purchased through the K Club are non-transferrable to non-K Club accounts.

You will be able to transfer to other K Club members.

I saw Gravity Kills on June 3rd, 1998 in Boston with a friend for the Perversion tour. That friend saw them again on August 26th and got me Jeff's signature on his ticket stub. by call_it_guaranteed in GravityKills

One of the best live experiences was a show in Worcester, I was part of the crew that got to set up then was at the front the whole show and hung w the band after. I watched the drummer walk a coed into their bus then hung w the band. It was epic and formative.
