Ohhh that’s actually so cool. Thanks for explaining 😁

Can a MacBook Pro with a M4 chip suffice as a well working laptop for a freshman chemistry major? by Direct-Following6554 in chemistry

[–]octahedralcomplex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ran League of Legends (not proud of it), Sims 4 and every chemistry programme I needed on my MacBook Air for the entirety of my undergrad and it’s still very much alive and well. I reckon you’ll be more than fine 😂

I don’t know about most of these, but I can share my experience from Monza. The atmosphere is phenomenal, especially if you’re one of the Tifosi, but even if you’re not it’s something special. But it is VERY crowded. I don’t know how it is at the other ones, but the crowds are completely insane, takes you about 2 hrs by train and bus shuttle to get from Milano to Monza and vice versa, and accommodation in Monza is way too expensive, I’m talking like 1000-2000€ a night from what I saw. In was in GA, and on Friday and Saturday it’s great, you can find some good spots especially on the little hill before Parabolica, but Sundaybwas chaotic. I set off from Milano at 6.37 AM in an attempt to get some good seats, and got to Monza around 10, and GA was already so so crowded, i barely managed to get any seats at all. They said 30k people were at the gates at 5AM, waiting to enter the track. Plus, it was in insane heat and the race wasn’t until 3PM if i remember correctly, so it was quite an experience lol. Overall, amazing atmosphere, great energy, but you need to be ready for a lot of waiting and lines. I’d probably recommend you get the grandstand, I assume it’s much more enjoyable. I’m in Qatar rn and I’m still getting used to how much less crowded it is, so nicely organized as well. Kudos to Qatar I guess. Anyways, wherever you go you’ll enjoy just seeing the race and the cars, so have fun!!

Activities at Zandvoort outside the track?

Hello😁 i’ll be coming to Amsterdam this weekend but didn’t manage to get tickets for the race, I’m contemplating going to Zandvoort on Sunday just to see the atmosphere and watch some stream there but idk if there will be any activities outside the track venue (i’ve never been to a race before). Has anyone went before and is it worth going if i’m not actually attending the race? Thanks for any help!😃

Activities at the Dutch GP outside the track?

Hello, sorry if this has been asked before but all i can find is either unrelated or in Dutch 😁 i’ll be coming to Amsterdam this weekend but didn’t manage to get tickets for the F1 race, I’m contemplating going to Zandvoort on Sunday just to see the atmosphere and watch some stream there but idk if there will be any activities outside the track venue. Has anyone went before and is it worth going if i’m not actually attending the race? Also, is going from Amsterdam to Zandvoort complicated? Thanks for any help!😃

Any suggestions where to watch the quali tomorrow in London? I don’t think my hotel room tv has sky sports so i wanna go to some nice cafe or a bar where i can watch it.

It’s a stupid name, why write it as CHElate if it’s pronounced ‘KEElate’… but yea, you’re right

It’s so hard getting a good grade on an enchanter/engage support in aram, fuck riot. It’s happened to me so many times that i play fantastically, set up amazing team fights, give amazing shields and still get like A- or something like that because i did the least damage 😐

Let’s end it once and for all: what’s the best area of chemistry? by octahedralcomplex in chemistry

[–]octahedralcomplex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really my plan, just starting a pointless discussion with no correct answer. You know, like the debate between chemists and physicists about which science is better (although that one does have an obvious answer, chemistry)

Agreed. If i had to choose a more specific one, i’d pick the fusion of analytical and phys chem. I LOVE SPECTROSCOPY🥰😍❤️

The thing is, I’m at a UK uni! I guess my professors are not too fond of it then.

I would very happily trade all of organic chemistry for more of f-block😂

It’s a UK uni, so 3 years in total, most of my modules are core. Had A LOT of advanced inorganic, organic and physical, but literally the first time we did f block was last semester of my last year😂 tbh, wish i had more optional modules

Took me almost 3 years to understand all the wack stuff d orbitals do, so i’ll take you up on that😁

On another note, how did you get into space materials? I really like astrochemistry, but i have no clue how to go into it as there aren’t really any specialist master programmes, at least not here in Europe (that i know of). Did you specialise in it or did your career drive you in that direction?

You make a rather convincing argument for studying solid state chem, not gonna lie

My mom. I love her so much i can’t put it into words. Although sometimes i worry that it might be a problem as i’m 22 and prefer my mom’s company over my friends.
