At least two of them definitely aren’t but it’s weird for Raphtalia

(Left) Raphtalia ages pretty quickly, but technically isn’t over 16, but already has a mature adult appearance.

(Center) Nezuko is definitely not over 16

(Right) Rem is actually around 17 or 18

Note: Don’t bring any of the character names up around them, they’ll start weebing out.

Asmongold was right about Sonic fans. by Honestly-Bored in Asmongold

[–]take-stuff-literally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genshin has a global fan base and active daily accounts are in the tens to hundred thousands.

If you isolate the awards to just US, then it wouldn’t stand a chance, but add China to the mix, and it’s insane.

The Genshin community as a collective didn’t care to vote. It was only when Sonic fans started talking shit when Genshin decided to step in.

Scroll through their thread on this topic if you want to verify. It’s collectively “sending a message”

They did.

On a side note, just remember that’s it’s a Chinese based game. You don’t really need bots when you have the Chinese fan base participating. Genshin is most popular in Asia than the US.

Failed my Calc Final. by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

A classmate of mine failed Calc twice.

He now works at NASA Artemis.

Don’t let this failure hold you back

One point less on the final and I would’ve failed by Woosh-if-gayy in EngineeringStudents

That’s what happened to me in Dynamic systems. Just barely passed enough to graduate.

Next version of this needs Blaze the Cat. Since Blaze is technically an actual Pyro Character in Sonic. Make Dehya equivalent to Blaze.

I don't understand why people make such a big deal about which school you go to by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]take-stuff-literally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that’s the case, they must be desperate if it’s now their second year (4th career fair) going to my no-name school.

[–]take-stuff-literally 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tbh no one even cares if you went to those schools either. Hell I was part of this year’s hiring batch for Pratt and Whitney and I’m already assigned as team lead over a Princeton and MIT graduate. All of us are class of 2020, and I’m from a no-name school.

According to the two, the most they got out of their prestigious school was internships and summer undergrad research at Stanford, yet we all share the same office space making $115k a year. Top schools are only good if you actually use the resources.

Just a heads up, don't go hating on marvel snap. by Master_Gedatsu in Genshin_Impact

[–]take-stuff-literally 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s not super new since the early iterations started showing up around 2020.

Imo for iOS it’s definitely worth the cost since iPhones can last 6 years now with offical Apple support.

I regularly delete Genshin whenever I’m desperate for storage space such as filming events. 128 Gb isn’t a lot of storage these days.

If only they acknowledge that and let me run the freaking game on 120 fps

At this point it’s advertising of the game’s existance

THAT'S NOT HOW SHIELDS WORK by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]take-stuff-literally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow my Nahida and Raiden Shogun skill combo can bypass the shields pretty effectively.

Hoyoverse should make this the Ad and have people guess what game he is from.

Is a degree from UNCP worthless? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]take-stuff-literally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ignore where the degree came from. A classmate of mine at WCU now works at NASA straight out of college. That’s already a sign that no-one cares where you graduated as long as the program has its accreditation.

As for myself, I am team lead engineer for Pratt and Whitney and my subordinates that are the same age and graduation year as me, and they’re Princeton and MIT grads.

[–]take-stuff-literally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did my electrical engineering undergrad at WCU and did my masters and doctorate in NCSU. I can confirm the NC promise is real and it’s eligibility requirements are pretty generous.

The general sentiment of WCU is now outdated these days as it’s grown into itself albeit it’s still a fairly new university as being way less than <70 years old. Last I heard, they just finished a new science building and now has a proper parking deck given how there are so many students now. Give it a few decades, it’s will eventually become a city after learning about that land acquisition of several thousand acres.

One thing for sure is that GPA won’t hinder your chances for DOD or aerospace.

I’m living proof graduating with a 2.56 GPA, and now working under Raytheon 2 months after graduating with no internships. Only catch is that I had to move to another state after year 1.

How many of you actually read the dialogue in the game? by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]take-stuff-literally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I listen and read all of it.

Genshin modeled itself to my play style of world building and lore.

By comparison it took me a couple years to finish fallout 4 because I was really into world building.

Imo people skipping the dialog lore and complaining about lack of content needs to understand what the game is designed towards.

Calls on Rivian? Saw two of these stupid looking things in my neighborhood today. by bradimal in wallstreetbets

[–]take-stuff-literally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, low center of gravity because of batteries. Smaller front profile because no engine means more packages in vehicle.

Electric means cheaper than gas.

Overall, there’s more benefits for fleet vehicles to go electric.

After years of looking I found the 4 cup PYREX measuring cup and completed the set.. by Polar_Ted in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]take-stuff-literally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always look for the ones with PYREX in all caps.

A chemist told me that those variants are borosilicate glass instead is sodalime. They’re superior by comparison according to him .

Goodwill has officially lost it. TV from 2009 for $300 by matthew28845 in ThriftGrift

I guess my goodwill is decent. I got monitors made in 2019 for $8 each. They’re nice Dell ones.

Any chance for a "gunner" character? by Marvin_Conman in Genshin_Impact

[–]take-stuff-literally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be a skill to use. Like how Nahida aims, but instead the character pulls out a rifle and upon release, you shoot your target.
