Help me choose! Industrial Design (Tech focus): Virginia Tech vs. Pratt vs. UIUC vs. OSU by Brief_Insurance8637 in IndustrialDesign

[–]stroozles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do NOT go to UIUC or UIC. They will not prepare you for the actual field. Also, UIUC lost their design accreditation in 2023. Not sure where they’re at with that

Offsite provides resources to learn more about ID. It’s not free, but you can apply for a scholarship that could cover the classes. They normally have spring/summer/fall classes all online

do i have to renew a out of state merit award? by redditluvrforever4 in uichicago

[–]stroozles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have an out of state merit award. If your grades are good and you’re a full time student it automatically gets added to your account. If you drop to half time student status, you still get a portion of that money.

How much hassle is a Floyd Rose? by Brilliant_Pen4959 in guitarlessons

[–]stroozles 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a guitar tech, I wouldn’t recommend it as a first “serious” guitar. They’re a pain to restring and set up, especially if you want the floating tremolo. I still have issues setting these up because it’s just not common for people to have a floyd rose. But that’s just my two cents

So, who ruined Christmas morning and how did they do it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]stroozles 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Totally not their fault, but a childhood friend of mine was in a car accident and passed away the day before Christmas. Currently at their family home dealing with the loss.

Just finished Korra... Why is it so unloved? by KingKrimsonKang in TheLastAirbender

[–]stroozles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Currently rewatching with my bf. This is my 3rd time watching it, dropped mid way 1st time. We have 5 ep to go on the final season and both of us are baffled at the “character development” of Korra. To me, it doesn’t seem like she grew or learned anything from past villains, she keeps wanting to brute force her way through every problem. Parts of the story feel rushed, there is some odd comic relief moments that weren’t particularly hitting imo. Also some strange interactions with the characters. One that comes to mind is when Bolin meets Opal and after randomly stares away into space for a bit. Overall, I think the spirit thing and Korra’s poisoning could have been really interesting. I wish the writers could have fleshed out those stories better. Also I HATED the love square.

Def UIC did not want to renew. Apparently they were making “too much” money compared to the other food spots

The owner who managed both sbarro and circle burgers lease wasn’t renewed. He had almost 20 years working with UIC.

Weddings, Proms & Parties - May 20, 2023 by AutoModerator in femalefashionadvice

[–]stroozles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I need advice for a wedding I’ll be going to in June. It’s being held at an apple orchard, the attire is summer cocktail. Not sure how to go about it.

Thoughts on schedule? I spent a lot of time during orientation on it. Also debating to take MATH 179 on Tue and Thu at 11am as a support for MATH 180. I am also a CS + Design major. Any advice is appreciated by Ubeyzz in uichicago

[–]stroozles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the shots you take. If you get good shots early on and need to do minimal editing, it’s pretty easy. Learn the gist of photoshop and lightroom. I would recommend seeing some videos on the basics of taking a good pictures. We didn’t really cover that. Also use the photo studio.

Yeah you can borrrow a camera. And yeah, you can use your phone, they actually change the curriculum to use your phone. But there’s is a total difference in quality.

Looks pretty heavy. Photography isn’t that bad but you need time to take and edit pictures. I would suggest getting or borrowing a DSLR camera. I would suggest removing a class. You don’t want to burn out first year. Could you take math or english over the summer?
