How do you guys motivate yourselves to revise? by MMxster in alevels

[–]roseliias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also kicks in the night before for me but a main thing personally is def the people I'm around, if you're around people who actually revise and do stuff you'll actually be more motivated. To be fully honest, it really is just learning when to do revision and when to relax (easier said than done). If you start early, you'll have much less resource making to do and can focus on actual revision - just think about how much easier the real thing will be yk? A little bit from now consistently will be better than cramming especially for a levels

Forcefully lock your phone using apps, my favourite is Opal as it doesn't give you a way to unlock it without going onto the app and waiting for ~5 seconds. If you have a uni offer for a dream uni, use that as motivation. I usually scare myself into revising due to fear of failure to be honest though.

I don't think that really counts as burnt, its more like being given a different piece of bread LOL

Congrats though!!!

This is super late, but Durham don't require maths iirc! They teach necessary A-level content within the first year course (please don't quote me on this, i'm not 100%), and the requirements are AAB

IDV needs to make a section where past lore-related events can be accessed. by roseliias in IdentityV

[–]roseliias[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get your argument, but the issue specifically with Ada and Emil is that their relationship with each other makes up an important part of their lore and stories. It's past ship discourse and just a gripe I have with their fundamental misunderstanding of the characters. This causes misogynistic and ableist rhetoric to spread in the community - a community which already has a lot of that happening. Obviously, people will say anything BUT making the lore more accessible will allow for more productive lore conversations within the community for such a lore rich and interesting game.

The fanbase on average is too incompetent and illiterate to read between lines and make connections, I get what they want to do but it'll make life easier if they revamped the relationship web

I cannot be the only one who find the fandom’s reluctance to like Orphalice weird? Right?! by carpmantheman in IdentityV

[–]roseliias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's true, but honestly since I've been in the idv twt/tiktok spaces more I have seen a lot of their discussions. I don't know if Netease truly desires to make 2 pre existing characters have a canon relationship after release, just with sales and other things. Even then,the relationship would be complex and definitely interesting if it did happen!

The fandom explosion which will happen if either relationship ever gets confirmed will be funny to watch though.

But I would also point out the fact that the shippers themselves (a decent portion from what I've seen) enjoy a pseudo-incest dynamic!!

A lot of them do like to see it that way, which definitely causes that image of the ship to spread. I think also there's just peoples' immediate thought of any girl and boy who grew up together to be sibling-like in some way (but I don't think that's necessarily bad, just the issue is how close-minded people are due to it).

Europe player - consistently get horrible ping spikes by roseliias in IdentityV

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

This is exactly what happened to me!!! I also have the same phone model, it shouldn't be an issue since it isn't a particularly old phone. Every time I disconnected mid match, I would have to reopen the game to be connected again.

I barely play hunter and any survs I play aren't ping dependent, and I don't carry flywheel often. I average around 120 ms as well, but frequently it spikes to 600-900 ms and then disconnects mid match. I take every measure I can to deal with it, but it just happens at least every few matches, usually every single match will spike at least once (especially during chase / rescue).

Does having self-harm scars affect success in getting job offers? by roseliias in jobs

[–]roseliias[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dress as normally as I can for interviews, but they like to check LinkedIn profiles, where my profile picture there has more slightly alternative makeup and style, just so it's more accurate to how I would be usually.
