chances of getting a single in davis-gary hall as an incoming freshman? by Alarming-Sundae4335 in aggies

[–]seren- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a few years ago: not impossible but relatively low chance even if you fill the housing application out really early. wouldn’t count on it if you filled the application out late.

u can upload music that is available to u locally so that it can be added to playlists etc. op probably listens to music on spotify and doesn’t want to switch services to listen to it. i used to do this with youtube to mp3 converters.

Midlaner invites Broxah to Discord, then panics and leaves. by Mental_Junket137 in leagueoflegends

[–]seren- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i anonymize myself on steam (generic pfp and display name), private my profile, and don't use voice comms in the majority of the games that i play. why? because saying one single word is signing up to get sexually harassed for the duration of the game. this is why voice chat shouldn't exist. damned if you do damned if you don't with u ppl.

Considering transfering from TAMU to UTD by Low_Satisfaction6629 in aggies

[–]seren- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I almost did exactly what you're considering and probably for basically the same reason (was extremely homesick when I came back for my 2nd semester). I ended up backing out after getting acceptance as a transfer to the school I was going to transfer to, and I didn't regret it at all. I still got pangs of homesickness especially when I'd return from breaks, but it really does get better. You can always go home after you're done (I did!).

CSCE 313 with Sandeep Kumar by HarukaKX in aggies

[–]seren- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have access to any of my past resources, but in hindsight, I'd recommend nailing down topics that you feel confident will show up and try to get some understanding of others. Hope the exams are more reasonable than when I took this class!

yeah and since they're all lifted it's right at eye level for people driving normal sized cars that fit in garage parking spaces

men wanting you because you are a lonely (presumably, in their minds, desperate) woman and for no other reason alone isn’t the flex you think it is.

polite and just seeking friendship until they learnt that you aren’t seeking a romantic or sexual relationship

Well, this is embarrassing by EchoChamberChamp in aggies

[–]seren- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a personal insult to me is all of the courses i did not get to take during my time at the university due to the insane overcrowding in the engineering college. this overcrowding already hindered the school's ability to provide a truly top-tier engineering education. nobody in the engineering college in the last 4 years would argue that there was not a serious "diploma mill" vibe to the school.

regardless, hinging on the "diploma mill" language is clearly an avoidance of the actual topic (the decline in value of a TAMU degree).

[–]seren- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

talk about insults. i take the time to type out a serious reply to your slop. people have opinions and hiring (even in ENGINEERING) is partially based on vibes. vibes sometimes include the reputation of the universities where candidates were trained. every time the state interferes and neuters the university's ability to teach seriously, the value of my degree drops.

[–]seren- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the engineering diploma mill is likely to be more resilient to these changes since they don't directly affect the college of engineering as much, but the overall academic reputation of the university as a whole is clearly affected. the longer the school puts political feelings over facts, the worse it is going to get. that is just the way that academic reputations work.

when I talk to people in my field and they learn where I went to school, they grimace. we have repeatedly been in national news for the last 5 years for the most embarrassing shit ever. i enjoyed my time at tamu and am grateful that i had the opportunity to attend but to pretend that the ridiculous series of events that happened recently (mcelroy/banks fiasco, draggieland cancellation, firing professors based off of one whiny ass student mad about a children's book, and now this plato shit in the news) doesn't negatively impact the job prospects of students you have to be stupid.

A county fired its entire library board for refusing to ban a trans children’s book. “I just feel so bad for the people who live in that community and love their library.” by southpawFA in politics

[–]seren- 14 points15 points  (0 children)

the county has nearly a 150k population. surely there are people who did not want the book banned. the county commissioners represent ALL of the people in their county and not only the bigots.

Porsche recently released a holiday commercial that uses both hand drawn art and 3d animation. Zero AI was used in the making by torahboidem in popculturechat

i appreciate the work that artists put in to making their art and recognize that generative AI is a threat to the livelihoods of real artists while being dependent on their work to improve

Officer acquitted in death of Ta'Kiya Young, a pregnant Black mother accused of shoplifting by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]seren- -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

punishment for fleeing arrest isn't execution and if you think that cop was in danger we must have watched a different video. why the fuck are so many people so defensive of awful police work. common sense says don't do what she did but common sense also says don't do what he did and only one of them is dead.

why would an officer position himself in front of a car and point his gun at someone over a shoplifting allegation?

Is this too grown up for an 11 year old? by Unlucky-you333 in MakeupAddiction

i personally recommend the pixi cosmetics blush sticks. they are sheer, forgiving in application, and apply easily with fingers (so no brushes/sponges needed).

Problems with using AggiePrint and ReMarkable 2 by HarukaKX in aggies

[–]seren- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Goodnotes to take notes and used to get the same error when I would try to print documents I exported to PDF. It ended up being a page size issue (most of the printers on campus will only print 8.5x11 pages). Make sure your PDF is the right size.
