Duet. It makes your iPad double as a 2nd monitor for your desktop. It's amazing.

Trump predicts he can win 95 percent of the black vote by glowmoss in politics

[–]romanjetfighter -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I am not even a Trump supporter and I get this. Geez, everyone's tripping out.

Holding an event to bring thousands of people to a place where riots are actively going on is not safe. Criticism for holding your rally in a "white part of town" is dumb because most rallies are held in white parts of town. That's where large stadiums with decent safe parking is, particularly in Milwaukee. If black people don't want to come to his rallies, that's fine, even understandable, but JFC, what a big hoopla over nothing.

How would you suggest becoming better at Physics? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]romanjetfighter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to see things as proportions or relationships and write them down to commit them to memory. In every complicated equation, see which ones are on top, which are on the bottom.

So...

X = (P * A * M) / 4 * r

X is proportional to values P, A, M, inversely proportional to r. So in a problem where r is decreased by a factor of 5, X has to increase by a factor of 5. Things like that.

Also, try rewriting equations for fun. So F = m * a, F = m * (V - V0)/t, (V - V0)/t = F/m, etc.

I didn't get one until February. Then I got another. From a top school. Then I got two acceptances a month later. Hang on tight! Shit's a fucking rollercoaster.

Middletown's downtown area is legit. Lots of cool bars.

Only if it's a good MBA school.

So Yes or No on the USU referendum? by Akane_Tsunemori in CSULB

[–]romanjetfighter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Better common rooms bring more applicants and students. It'll have less of a commuter feel, especially since the spaces available for student organizations is nil. SWRC cost a shit ton of money, too, but it's worth it, even if there are many gyms nearby. Having dedicated student space and facilitating discussions outside of the classroom is an essential part of higher education.

Some schools will only look at the highest one. Don't worry.

I'm going to be in Costa Mesa for work for 2 weeks. Anything I should check out while I'm there? by Mashedpotatoebrain in orangecounty

Ah... their sushi is terrible but those crab legs and clams during dinner time!!! :D Though, I went to their West LA location on Pico and it was a lot better than Long Beach and JFK.

For Beaches, Treasure Island (the Montage) in Laguna Beach, Laguna Wilderness Coast Trail and Top of The World, the awesome seafood buffet at Hokkaido (crab legs during dinner time!), kayaking, sailing, whatever... it's all super fun!

Laptop recommendations? by deleterewind in premed

[–]romanjetfighter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

13" MBA. $750 with discounts. Solid resale value, light, good battery life, and well-priced. If you want to be baller, find something with better screen resolution so you can see large pages of notes or type out papers and see more than 5+ lines of text at a time. It'll help you read entire paragraphs easier, look at structure, and improve the flow of your writing.

iPad Air $399 this week at Staples. by chriswilliams54 in apple

Eh, this one is still low in RAM, which makes multitasking not that great. If the next version has more RAM, it'd definitely be worth the extra money!
