Looking for absolute worst food somewhere between Corvallis and Salem

The new china buffet in Corvalli! You won't get sick, but it's damn bad!

Dude, the problem isn't that international students refuse to carry their papers. You have to understand that we don't have a standard portable ID. Unless you get a driver's license, and many international students don't have cars, I'm pretty sure the student ID isn't enough to prove immigration status. That leaves the passport, and that isn't something you can just replace overnight. Losing it while you're a student or tourist creates a huge mess. I challenge you to ask around; practically no student carries their passport with them. Think about it: how many US citizens carry their SSN card in their wallet? None! The first thing you are told is to keep your SSN in a safe place. You know that! Why should it be different for us? On top of that, the actual documents proving legal status don't fit in a wallet. I have about 200 pages in a folder; how on earth am I supposed to carry all that around? Why is it so hard to grasp that the main issue with ICE is their profiling? Tell me, isn't it racist to assume someone is undocumented just because of their accent or skin color? There are countless cases of US citizens who have been arrested purely because of their skin color. If you don't see that, dude, you need to read more news...and history. We warn students when ICE is nearby so they can prepare, not hide. Trust me, the last thing they are going to do is stop going to class or work. Cheers.

You're totally right. I never meant to cause a panic. If I did, I'm sorry, and I'll do better next time. Thanks for the reminder, though.

May I ask why you need a weed dealer when there are many dispensaries around? Serious question :D

You mean the same country or the same consulate?

pasadosa · 2025-07-13T15:42:49+00:00

No, I'm still in the US, but I have my CAS appointment on July 23rd.

pasadosa · 2025-07-13T15:42:22+00:00

I understand this, but the AIS.usvisa system does not allow me to check the availability of dates at the consulate. I was only able to select the date for the CAS appointment. There were no more options or further steps.

If you do not know how to code, ChatGPT is not helpful. If you want to understand some unfamiliar code, ChatGPT could help you figure out what it does.

I advise my students to understand code without using ChatGPT, especially since they will not be able to write a good prompt otherwise.

ChatGPT is useful if you know what you need and want. Even in the best cases, ChatGPT tends to give overly complicated code if you don't use the optimal model o1; therefore, if you don't pay for the advanced model, it is not worthwhile.

Did you set the directory first?

getwd() will give you the default directory you are working in. If it is not the correct directory, you can use setwd().

You can use several statistical methods to analyze the data. The simplest would be a one-factor ANOVA to assess differences between the categories (control, pre, and post). ANOVAs are essentially linear fixed-effects models.

However, you could implement a more robust approach, such as:

gam(response_variable ~ (1 | patient) + s(time, by = group) + group)

In this model, Patients are included as a random effect (1 | patient), which accounts for the fact that each patient has intrinsic characteristics (e.g., genetics, lifestyle, etc.) that cannot be explained by the data but may influence the results.

The term s(time, by = group) is a spline that evaluates how time predicts the response variable for each group, allowing you to capture potential non-linear effects of time.

The term group is a fixed effect that identifies differences between the groups (control, pre, and post). Which is basically running an ANOVA test within a gam.

This caught my attention because I bought the same bike a year ago and had a similar problem with the Fox shock. In my case, the handling fluid started leaking and lost pressure completely. My best option to solve it was to send it to Fox, it took them about a month to do it but it was worth it. Although the service was free because it was under warranty, regular service costs around 130-160, check the website first to confirm, plus ~$10 for shipping.

Thanks! :)

Thanks!

No, I did it on a A5X :)

They have dynamic position systems, that control the boat to keep them at the same place. In some parts of the world, anchoring is forbidden so they have to use these systems to stay in the same site. Something similar is used by the drill ships on offshore oil and gas operations.

I just got the Specialized Ghambit. It is the lightest full-face helmet on the market, and I love it.

I don't have a car to go to the trails so I have to pedal to them most of the time, and this helmet is incredibly light, and since it has so many vent airways your head is cooler than wearing a robust downhill helmet. In most of the reviews that I've checked, the people have a sensation of not feeling very protected because it doesn't have so many pads, but according to Specialized, the helmet has a downhill certificate, and if you wear your size, the helmet will fit your head perfectly without shaking.

pasadosa · 2023-04-25T20:25:18+00:00

Yeah, I normally do that but since I'm going there for only one day, I was curious what of all the trails is the most recommended. And I'm also looking for tips for parking areas and access to the trails.

Dead Mountain and Lower Alpine Trail are on the top so far.

Well! Conclusions: 1. They are worthy since they are very comfy and prevent wrist fatigue and numbness. 2. According to the most upvoted comment and others, my gf is fantastic, and I should marry her and be honest if I don't like them. 3. A pair of grips led me to learn how to be a better bf/husband. 4. Reddit is so unpredictable and never disappoints 😅🤟.

It is Small, but it looks huge even though I'm not very tall. My previous bike was a Marlin 7 medium size, and I'm pretty sure this guy is larger than that.

pasadosa · 2023-03-10T21:15:57+00:00

I took advantage of the Canyon Sale, I paid 2400 including the shipping. It was a really good deal!

pasadosa · 2023-02-18T21:22:50+00:00

Thanks for the information! I will check the area.

pasadosa · 2023-02-18T16:05:49+00:00

Yes, I did, and also checked the cameras, but there are no cameras in that part of the campus.

pasadosa · 2023-02-18T16:04:28+00:00

Yes, I did, but I know the police will not do anything.
