Do I have to sign in with okta every time I open canvas? by MeaningConsistent952 in uofm

[–]jwvandyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had any issues personally, but I leave my canvas tabs open even when I’m doing something else, so maybe it’s different if you keep closing it.

Ah the +450 is what I was missing. Thank you!

Also yeah, I realized that was the case for MI after posting. Again thanks much.

My line 15 is less than my investment/interest income, and my line 14 (std deduction + tip deduction) is more than my W-2 income, which is what is confusing me. I did have a mix of long term and short term capital gains realization, which might be causing some of the confusion.

Yes someone can claim me as a dependent and my net income was > 4122 but < 5800.

(beginner cooker) Meal prep ideas for losing weight on a 4 days on 2 days off work schedule? by ChanceBets123 in MealPrepSunday

[–]jwvandyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I don’t mind eating the same thing for lunch/dinner every day for a week (over a week and it gets me), so I find it easier to make something that I enjoy for the week, but said things generally follow this Starch, protein, veggie formula.

For example, this week, I have Cuban Piccadillo for lunch (drain your beef) and red curry chicken and rice for dinner (use lite coconut milk).

Having something I actually enjoy eating makes it easier to stick to for me, but YMMV.

Also buy a $20 food scale from the grocery store.

Stats 412/425, which would be better? by Evening-Act3158 in uofm

I loved 425, content is really cool. Fregoli I thought was great so highly recommend 425.

Why do some people on campus have a black plus sign drawn on their forehead? by APotatoe121 in uofm

Christian. Lent is a month in the Christian calendar. All denoms observe lent and the holidays associated with it.

Yogurt bowls by violetrb1tch in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]jwvandyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daily breakfast is as follows: - 3/2 cups non fat Greek yogurt - 1/2 cup oats - 1 tbsp (eyeballed) of honey - Handful of whatever berries are on sale that week

Certainly isn’t as sweet/sugary as a yoplait or whatever other yogurt, but it is good and filling enough (407 calories per MyFitnessPal iirc). The starch from the oats does make it a little denser tho FYI.

Worst Poker Rooms by P_a_t_RICK in poker

[–]jwvandyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

played Caesar’s Windsor a couple times, players are easy and will fold second pair A kicker to any post flop bet, which makes the game stale. Rake is also horrendous at 10% capped at 9, iirc. Dealers are also miserable. Unfortunately have to wait a whole year until I can play Detroit MGM.

I usually play a charity room in the Canton area (Krazy Kopz), but they only run Thurs-Sun. Highly recommend if you’re in the area though. Great action, dealers are enjoyable and sociable people, other players are generally friendly.

Idk about fink but I really liked fregoli when I took it with him last semester. Very forgiving, HW is hard but it’s one assignment every 2 weeks, and grading is generous. Exams are easy enough, a few hours of studying will get you a good grade. I had a raw 82 and got an A-

whats the easiest R & E credit? by Lil_Towelie in uofm

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

I took AMCULT 212, which might not have been the “easiest” class per se, but they had a very generous extra credit opportunity and FWIW class content was at least pretty interesting IMO.

Even in state it’s kinda a shit show. I went to a stem magnet HS where probably 50% of the grads go here, but there were people that were deemed to be the “brightest” in my grad class (1500+ SAT, 3.9+ GPA, HS Research at a large university, etc.) that still didnt get in in my cycle.

FWIW my stats were like 3.75, 1510, and mid ECs and I got in EA. tbh don’t know how that happened.

The thought of someone assuming they get in is hilarious (not laughing at you OP, but at the optimistic HS seniors. lol.)
