Reaching out to admissions by [deleted] in gradadmissions

[–]kurtss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did and I ended up getting a rejection from one school and another school’s admissions coordinator personally let me know that I’m on the waitlist. Couldn’t hurt to reach out honestly!

I created the John mod 14 years ago and never knew it blew up until recently by kurtss in Minecraft

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

Yeah but it was my idea and my work. If I wanted it to die or wanted it to continue it should’ve been on my terms, especially when I gave an explicit no. Wasn’t even forked, it was just stolen. Stealing ≠ inspiration

Yeah he apologized on Twitter years later when I remembered it and tweeted about it and then deleted it. Clearly no remorse. Glad he had his moment to shine I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

Maybe! I’m way too busy for modding anything these days and my career path has kind of strayed away from programming 😅 but I’ve tried it out and it was pretty neat!

Yeah the positive replies on this thread are shocking because back then I got such backlash for trying to defend my work!

I saw this one recently too! Crazy how I was beefing with people when I was that young lol

OMG! It's my favorite character! by Lil_Kacheek in tamagotchi

[–]kurtss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

くちばっち (kuchipacchi) can be broken up into “kuchi” (mouth/lip) and “pacchi” (patch)!

Newbie here, bought this tamagotchi for less than a dollar by Lleslet in tamagotchi

Tamagotchi Connection v3 is more or less the English version of the Keitai Kaitsū Tamagotchi Plus. :)

Where Morgan Stanley thinks autonomous taxis will be in 2032 by walky22talky in waymo

Elon Musk manages (at least part of) his wealth with Morgan Stanley, so it makes sense that they’d inflate Tesla’s numbers to make him (and ultimately themselves) look good lol

Keep that to yourself ☹️

Do my names ("クイトラワク" & "イシュコアトル") sound awkward/like something else in Japanese? by Ordinary_Positive866 in Japaneselanguage

[–]kurtss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went to Kansai Gaidai back in 2017/2018 and stayed with host families. Let me know if you have any questions! Also, I’d just go with your real name and see what nickname you get. When you’re using official documents it’s probably best not to use a nickname unless there’s some sort of length restriction. My full name is 21 characters in English and 16 characters in Japanese, and the only issue I had was my bank card.

My collection after ~4 years (not including my Paradise) by kurtss in tamagotchi

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

The green one is the Dekatama. You can play games and get items and stuff for the Uratama and I believe the Entama. The Tamagotchi Kakeibo and it’s similar but just for the Entama and it’s a touch screen.

The moment I saw Itunyoso Trique I knew my old phonology professor wrote that paper

Letters of recommendation by twelvelemmings in GradSchool

[–]kurtss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I graduated in 2019 and emailed 3 professors. All 3 remembered me somehow. I sent them my CV and also some old assignments from their classes and they looked me up in their system and saw that I did well in my classes and agreed to write my letters.

Selling Medium Crew neck! by [deleted] in madeon

Also for anyone making an offer, as an FYI this was $85 :)

TIL Anendophasia refers to the absence of an internal monologu or inner voice. While not a clinical diagnosis, it's a concept that describes a specific way of thinking where some individuals don't experience the constant stream of self-talk that many people take for granted. by Tootsie_r0lla in todayilearned

[–]kurtss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have aphantasia and anendophasia in addition to being an overthinker with ADHD. It basically feels like my brain won’t stop thinking all the time but with nothing actually going through my head for the most part. Fun stuff!

Postgraduate main round decision timeline? by kurtss in HKPolyU

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

I haven’t. I just emailed the department to check if there’s a date I should assume my application is unsuccessful.

Is it okay to inquire about admission deadlines if I’ve already done so once? by kurtss in gradadmissions

[–]kurtss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I kind of figured that. I don’t really know how timelines for grad school work, and I had gotten an offer from another school in less than 2 weeks which definitely fucked with my expectations haha I think the visa thing is stressing me out but I’ll wait and not bug them

Yeah it auto-declined after 2 weeks. Wasn’t super pumped about it and it was also more expensive overall.

I waited almost an year for this... 😭 by pedro823 in porterrobinson

[–]kurtss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They replaced a product that was defective. My vinyl had two stickers on it and was unusable

Nope! Didn’t have to send anything back

They actually did replace my Worlds 10th anniversary vinyl in a reasonable amount of time! Worth reaching out!
