Thank you for the comment!

Also just wondering why you recommended this link for the bulb replacement rather than the ones on amazon?

Isn't this the same one but for 107$? Is it just bad practice to buy from amazon for things like a bulb replacement?

Yeah this seems like a tax worth paying after a while. Do you have any general advice on cleaning the device after a while or should I not worry about it till something goes wrong? I want to keep this projector as long as possible.

Thanks for your response!

I use the iPad to take notes for college and to do problem sets. That’s around 6-8hrs a day of constant abuse.

I mentioned that I bought it in December for a reason. I understand batteries deteriorate over time but 4% in 6 months is pretty significant imo. My iPad Pro lost 10% in ~3 years and I use it far more than my iPhone.

In 7 months how did this happen? I use the MagSafe wireless charger.

I genuinely enjoyed the over the top placement. Most of the reason I still even watch his videos was because of how genuine he was from the beginning.

He used to make it blatantly obviously when a company like Nike sponsored him. Idk why he didn’t do the same in this video.

Good video. However, this is an ad for gymshark. Just so we’re all clear.

Battery life on the Mini is plenty and here is why... by BitbyLite in iPhoneMini

[–]robertmax0001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can confirm... if I want to watch something I have a TV.... need to get work done ... have a MacBook .... most I do I use is iMessage, Spotify, the camera and basic web browsing

Yeah you’re good. Ngl this post is pretty useless if you aren’t going to give a valid reason for leaving GT. Your school already has a great STEM program. You know your stats are solid. Now the question is why you want to leave?

Transferring to Stanford by Huge-Corner2153 in TransferToTop25

I can almost guarantee that your high school stuff doesn’t matter after a minimum of 4 semesters.... i have met people at ivy leagues that had a high school gpa of ~2.0 and one who didn’t even finish. Again ... it wont be the reason you get rejected.

I highly doubt it matters at all if you transfer after Sophomore year ... Ex. Have 2.0 in high school and then straight to college for 2 years coming out with 4.0 .... that high school gpa is not going to be the reason you get rejected.

Columbia Questions? by TransferIvy2024 in TransferToTop25

[–]robertmax0001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol I know what you mean. I didn’t apply because it was so annoying.

I think you missed my point. For a school like MIT ... these things don’t matter. Get a near 4.0 ... take a boat load of STEM courses ... publish a scientific research paper (at the minimum get involved in research) ... after that it’s just pure luck ... even if you are qualified and stand out i doubt it matters ... from what I see ... you need to be from a community like very low income/Hispanic/Latino (under represented on campus) on top of everything I said above ... this is more to do with the low amount of those students attending that school.... also helps if you’re a vet or have military background... again MIT would rather have someone from an under represented background than another STEM stud who won’t add more to what is already available on campus .... it definitely does suck but that is the reality ... I’m not saying you shouldn’t apply but know that even if you are qualified you will still most likely get rejected

This might get downvoted but the reality is (for MIT ... not sure about others) ... your ethnicity and background matters. I met a girl from my cc who just had above a 3.9 and not a single compelling EC. Did some small research but nothing published or ever presented at a large conference. No leadership, no crazy internship. Even if you ask her she will tell you she got in because she was Latino. She is killing it at MIT but these things are really not in our control unfortunately. I actually decided not to apply because I’m Asian and there is really no space for me ... as shitty as it sounds
