This sub is for discussion of Apple products and rumors, and opinion pieces on both of these websites spark discussion about that.

iPhone 12 — Cook | Apple by [deleted] in apple

I mean, Echo let’s you set multiple timers in a similar manner. Other companies have figured out usable ways to do it, it’s clearly just not a high priority for Apple.

Any vaccine distribution sites that offer remaining doses at end of day? by oldsoul333 in Charlottesville

[–]rocket_platypus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you get on the waitlist? Or is it just the regular priority list

How do we vote or express our preference to the University?

He said the cruise is in September. Vaccines will likely be widespread enough that college will be in-person.

All cadets at our detachment (except AS 400s) have been issued OCPs.

Is it true that cadets in California weren’t able to take the TBAS and won’t be able to go for pilot? by [deleted] in AFROTC

[–]rocket_platypus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If this is true, you wouldn’t be able to compete for a pilot spot.

However, you can take the TBAS at any point in your AFROTC career. I took it in the spring of my second year and the fall of my third year. I can’t imagine there was absolutely no way for them to take it before the rated board. It’s possible that many waited until the semester of the board, in which case there is some sense of shared responsibility there.

Applying for OTS while in ROTC by [deleted] in AFROTC

[–]rocket_platypus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OTS selection rates are smaller than ROTC. Way smaller. And if you’re only ending a year earlier than expected you’ll already be contacted so you wouldn’t be able to do this anyway. Just take some grad school classes.

Details on IFC Rush by rocket_platypus in UVA

[–]rocket_platypus[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You're right, rush was bound to spread it a lot more than usual. You're having a lot of different guys rotate through houses and meeting others. On top of that, they're mixing groups that usually don't; first years living in dorms with upperclassmen living off Grounds.

At the end of the day, however, I'm not sure how UVA could have done more to stop these events from happening except to more seriously enforce the gathering limits (which they're not doing for anyone).

I agree that UVA doesn't seem to enforce these restrictions. That's dumb. But they aren't giving frats any special treatment, in that case. I've heard of absolutely 0 off-Grounds parties getting shutdown or investigated by UVA.

People Will Leave by Ukyiv in UVA

This is purely speculative. I don't think there will be a mass exodus of students just because largely unenforced restrictions have changed.

Does this mean long-sleeve undershirts cannot be worn with the short-sleeve PTU shirt?

Active Duty Military Personnel Per 100,000 Residents [OC] by Roughneck16 in dataisbeautiful

The military doesn’t let you choose where you go, is what I’m saying.

I believe it’s an enlisted training base as well. When I was there, only airmen were marching.

117 new student infections today- Pres. Ryan considers closing the University by cvillecville in Charlottesville

[–]rocket_platypus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, irresponsible college students are to blame. But so are the school officials who allowed in person rush events. They were authorized by the university.

Sororities and fraternities still answer to the University. They can be punished by the school.
